I'd be worried as to what sort of job they really did and how much stuff they skipped. It'd cost more to do it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HUSTLER Member 663 Member For: 21y 5m 18d Location: Broken Hill Posted 14/09/04 03:18 AM Share Posted 14/09/04 03:18 AM Lol, nar they never changed the oil or filter, sorry I should have explained that!! I am running full synthetic now and changed the oil last weekend myself!!But still 21 dollars I think I was kinda a mistake!! They main boss down there started pulling some weird faces when they told me how much it was, and he said its gotta be a mistake, but that's all they charged me anyway!!Theres a list of about 30-40 odd things all ticked off as checked, so I guess it all got done, and I know they took it out on the open road and drove it cause they were telling me how quick it goes!! hmm anyway....
