    Engine flush (?), engine room cleaner (?) (prob. just some degreaser), engine room coat (?), Bactaklenz, decarbonizing??? Andami padding na cr*p stuff you don't really need.

    Also, brake fluid for P240.85 each bottle? You can get almost 1 LITER of Prestone brake fluid na for that price...
    Thanks. Sabi ko bakit mahal, my SA said kasi 40k replace all fluids daw e bakit parang wala naman ako masyado nakikitang fluids there except for sa brakes. I don't see the CVT fluid

    there are nine typical fluids in a regular car. some of them are not applicable to all cars.

    1.motor oil/engine oil
    2. automatic transmission oil
    3.manual transmission oil/differential oil/manual steering gear(parallelogram, haltenberger linkage, cross steer systems)
    4. brake fluid-DOT3,4,5,5.1
    5. windshield washer fluid
    6.antifreeze/coolant
    7.battery electrolyte
    8. fuel
    9.refrigerant

    any applicable fluid in your car has a projected service life.

    stick with the car's owner's manual for fluid maintenance

    Decarbonizing IMO is useful sa GDI engines and diesels with dirty EGR. For old-school port-injected gasoline there's no need really.

    Early coil packs were a common point of failure talaga. I remember my friend would carry a full set of coils with him because his car (an Evo VII) would have one go bad every so often. Nakakatawa din we had a funrun to Antonio's in Tagaytay, and when we got there the first thing we see him do is pop the hood and start checking the coilpacks

    Cathy ... have a flatbed tow truck (why are they still called TOW trucks?) bring your car to ULS or whoever is willing to help you ... it's going to cost much, much cheaper and the work done will be much, much better ... that 7 hour labor charge alone is worth more than the towing service ...

    PULL THE COROLLA out of casa ...

    Cath, mas konti pa mileage ng 2015 explorer ko sayo, low 30k+ pa lang. But I'm using it more often now dahil ganun pa rin maintenance cost whether gamitin or hinde. Pinagawa ko na 100th kms PMS na. Replace all fluids pati drive belt.

    I am praying na ignition coil lang as most people say here. Kasi that's a simple and non expensive fix ata

    "dead cylinder" simply means,
    that cylinder is not contributing to the power generation of the engine.
    a common fault is, the fuel mixture isn't igniting, i.e., something wrong with the hi tension, or there's not enough fuel...
    it does not translate to major engine fix.

    in my last casa pms,
    the SA was perusing his monitor screen for my data...
    "basic lang sir, tama?"
    it appears, my "kuripot ang costumer na 'to. oil and filter only, nothing more" has been input-ed in their database.
