    Do you "personally" take your ride to the casa for PMS or do you have somebody else take there instead?

    Yes and I even watch it during the actual service to ensure everything in the job order is done.

    Currently, No.

    But with all kinds of monkey business casas are pulling based on what I read here, I might have to attend to it myself in the future.

    Yes. We must personally take it to the casa. We know our car better and we must know what they will do.

    Technically, no since I don't avail of the dealership service.

    But yes, I personally go to Mang Mario, Jemson, Ronald, and my other service guys. That's why I personally know them.

    Ako yung Starex lang ang pinapasok ko sa casa (Pitstop) since yun lang naman ang sasakyan namin na under warranty pa. Other cars either sa mekaniko sa office or dun sa talyer sa tapat ng work ko, pag medyo malaking trabaho (Japanese cars) dinadala ko sa Class A Motorcraft in Banawe area.

    Yes... for PMS purposes only

    tapos kapag may mga recommendation, like palit underchassis parts, sa suki kong mekaniko pinapagawa

    never had a problem with our cars with this system/scheme...

    kung kaya ng budget, iba pa rin kapag may casa record (assuming ok yung casa ah) ( and even beyond the warranty period)

    masmataas resale value ng auto IMHO.

    I do. I ask for the filters, old parts, leftover oil etc that were replaced to make sure they replaced them. A few years back I even asked for the filters and mark them before they put them in the car. Must be getting soft heheh.

    yep. wala kaming driver eh.

    sanay kasi akong pinapanood yung ginagawa, banawe-style hehe. buti narerequest ko sa casa na tingnan ko yung gawa ng mga mekaniko nila...

    and meron akong explicit instructions na wag hugasan ang auto kahit gaano na sya kadumi hehe

    An ignorant question: Up to what KM do you bring your car sa casa for PMS? UNtil matapos lang yung warranty? Or you guys don't even wait for it to finish?

    Kasi in my case, first time that I brought my car sa casa, yung unang car kasi naman eh yung sister ko ang gumagastos (sagot kasi ng company), kaya nung dinala ko for the 1000km checkup, I was expecting na wala ako babayaran, pero I was surprised na may billing na agad ako for 2,100 oil change daw... 6L of oil, oil filter and other lubricants yung nakalagay sa bill. Labor cost daw is free since it's the first 1000KM, pero yung succeeding eh may labor cost na daw (5000km and up).

    Now I'm a bit torned in bringing my car sa trusted mekaniko ko, sa mga susunod na checkups niya, kaso it will tamper the warranty. Warranty for the parts?

    Paki advise naman po. Thanks.
