Just want a general service done to the Willy as i'm too lazy to go out in the cold and do it myself...

Can anyone suggest a decent place in the Surrey/Croydon area?

Cheers

WHAT...you lazy git!! :shock:

New oil and filter using engine flush before hand
New fuel filter
New air filter (or clean and re-spray your uprated one)
New spark plugs
Check coolant,brake and PAS fluid levels
Check brakes for thickness
Check windscreen wipers

Other jobs recommended

Injector clean
New dizzy and rotor arm

All done well within a day....nothing like getting out in the cold and doing these jobs..then coming inside and getting a hot shower before going down the pub for a few, knowing your car is all sorted for a few months!!
:lol: :lol:

My mate builds engines for a reputable company says its best not to use an engine flush and it can dislodge all kinds of nasty shit that can **** the engine up.

My valver is getting constant oil changes anyway the rate at which it burns off lol.

See ya

Usually have to change the coolant aswell because the oil filter is a bitch to get to without removing the rad

Has just lives round the corner from me, but I didn't know his old man done it as full time occupation?

I'll speak to Has and give him a bell - cheers!

I buy all the parts myself and get a local garage to do all the work for me. Charge £100 for a full service, and I get this done every 5k. They also do an engine flush every service and never had a problem yet... :?
