Hi guys,
what consists in a full service as opposed to a basic service? Also I am aware that oil filters, spark plugs are changed, is there anything else to clean out/ replace/ re fluid especially for the Celica? I am new to this having only had my car for the last 2 weeks and i want to iron out any maintenance issues. thanks |

Full service comes with "Happy-Ending"
Seriously, read the ind. shop's service menu's, as they're interpretation can sometimes be different. -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!

I think he wants to do it himself [And I don't mean that as a continuation of your joke ]
Do the list: 4 qts approx of oil Oil Filter Check coolant Check PS fluid Check Tranny fluid if applicable Spark Plugs Spark Plugs Wires Distributer Cap Distributer Rotor [I like to replace the coil with an MSD Blaster 2 or similar at the same time cause they are cheap] Check Brake pad wear Check rotor thickness and trueness I'm sure I'm forgetting all kinds of stuff but this will get you started.

You forgot Air Filter (but Playr got it) As i said before; make sure you read the shop's menu, as different shops do different services. Playr'll give you an air filter. I'd give you a beer. Death would recommend turbo parts, and griff would give a T-Shirt with a hellica emblem -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW!

And this is the reason that everyone wants your help on their cars death you know all this stupid trivial stuff on these Celica's (not to mention your fair share on anything else with an engine in it)... like last week when you took the wild guess at what size/thread bolt the seats take and miraculously grabbed it first try have you ever replaced a seat bolt? Seriously? why would you know the threading size?
because it's sadly true -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW! Damn D-Man - most impressive. D-Man's post should be a sticky LOL, oh boy, you can always count on D-Man for ridiculously hilarious posts. |

I didn't see that anybody listed this so-
I commonly check the level of the fluid/acid in the battery [if you have a battery with the removable covers] and if the levels are not equal or somewhat low I add distilled water to them. I was always taught to do this, don't know if anyone else does, but counts as maintenance to me. -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊

its almost 2009....time to move onto sealed batteries I bought a new battery for my Altima about 3 months ago and it still has caps to check the batt-water... So does my shop's electric forklift. (granted it uses ALOT more battery power than our batteries, but still...) but I guess now that it's 2009; we should all have a little more faith in our batterys. -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!
