Can you recommend someone? I have been suggested ipswich automatics apparently they will do it for around 180 bux but that's not a quote.

Yeah it's a pretty easy job man, they just attach a pump to the box suck all the old oil out then fill it back up then drain it, do that twice and yeah. $180 seems all good considering the wasted oil.

as long as you trust them to actually do it, then anywhere. it'a not a hard job, just annoying without the pump and messy


hey matt, did sahin service it before selling it, or was it just the engine oil change?
