100,000km Service...

[htial]

I think I've got it down to two places I'll be calling to get my 100,000Km service done... ...all depending on time off the road and time I can get off work because I use my car for work...

But I'd like to know who people recommend for such a big service... ...and what needs to be closely looked at...

I might still go to my regular guy... ...but they mostly do holdens and fords and there are four other cars from my family that go there as well as about 7 others from the neighbors... ...So they do have me covered or basic services... ...and I'm sure they could do it too... ...But I was just thinking that there are more Nissan orientated workshops out there that would have a better idea of what to look for on a big service...

Thanks in advanced for your suggestions...

RE Customs

[paulr33]

depends on who you ask and what workshop

expect around $1100 for the whole thing

timing belt & tensioner bolts and bits

100,000 service

water pump

all fluids etc so its a big job

the timing belt supplied and fitted is approx $450 ish ballpark (lots of labour)

[paulr33]

any skyline competent workshop can give you a good price and do a good job

re customs

dr drift

creatd

chasers

racepace

and so on...

ring around and find out $ and whats in volved

i'd say go creat'd... BUT you live in SPRINGVALE!

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Here is what I can think of,

Oil

Oil filter

Air filter / Clean pods

Fuel filter

Battery (If you think is getting old)

Radiator Coolent Flush

Brake pads / Machine Disks (If worn)

Timing Belts / Fan Belts

Spark Plugs

Check all your tyres (Change if worn)

Gear Box oil (If had not been done)

Check under the car / drivetrain

And do the genaral service look over.

Its a big one for service. TGS Performance and Le Mans Automotive are to places I take my car to.

paid around that, full timing kit, water pump, fuel filter etc.

think it was only with them overnight.

Went to Nissco in bayswater, Randy is the only man to touch my cars and my familys.

yeahh i got quoted around 1k 2 do 100'000km service...

but they looked and said it had already been replaced and i just recently changed oil, fuel filter, spark plugs so i jus got them to do a minor service and change oil filter, coolent flush.

couldnt believe it when i heard $1000+

[paulr33]

i assume a 200k service is the same as 100k?

mine is due for 200k

[htial]

Hay Everyone...

Thanks for that... ...Now I just have to work out what day I can get off work... ...and can also book it in...

[paulr33]

i assume a 200k service is the same as 100k?

mine is due for 200k

anyone got any info on a 200k service?

std factory items (200k old): water pump, oil pump, turbo, all internals and usual junk & new coils

what really needs doing? ie: what is at risk of failure

i dont want any more power

[R31Nismoid]

same as 100k man really.

oil/water pumps, cam tensioner/pulleys etc, i'd be replacing ALL the belts too (if 100k doesnt do this)

All fluids front to rear

[paulr33]

bit of a bugger hey, water pump & oil pump in parts alone is nearly $1k all up ?

but if dont replace them and either fails then you risk the engine - bah hum bug

likewise with the turbo too i spose, if i dont replace it and the exhaust wheel dies then it can risk taking the engine and new internals with it

bugger

[R31Nismoid]

yeah turbo is an interesting one.

i mean any 2nd hander you get is going to have what, min 100k on it realistically.

oil/water wont come to 1k, well... i suppose in total with labour and so on your over 1k

UAS do the cheapest pricing for that kinda stuff (pumps) so check em out

[paulr33]

damn thats a hefty 200,000 service cost then

if i replace all the items at risk

timing belt change (as part of normal X00,000 service)

standard X00,000 service fluids, etc

oil pump

water pump

would it be needed to replace pistons here or stock ones are ok even at 200,000?

now lets say i just drive it till the timing belt snaps

its likely to mash the valves and pistons

so it would be the same as above, plus pistons and valves

[R31Nismoid]

meh dont worry about internals, should be fine still. As long as compression is good (which it should be, you've never leant on your motor)

So yeah, listed items above i could change, same as 100k really

[paulr33]

my 200,000 got done today

i did the oil and oil filter last week

new timing belt done

new water pump (current one is leaking, otherwise would have kept it)

VERY competitive pricing and fast as too (lov'in it)

thanks to EAS in airport west

[ashneel]

wow 200 and still going strong.

[ssxRicho]

got mine done 4-5 weeks ago at RE, just in for the day.
