if you change oil regularly, like every 3k kms, conventional oil will do..if you rev a lot or lagi kang na ta traffic, go full synthetic...mas longer also between oil changes..

Depende sa viscosity, brand, at source. Prices vary from 400 to 600 per liter for fully synthetic oils. Be sure to check your manual for the recommended viscosity and amount of oil needed. Most small engines require around 4L of oil. Bigger engines may require more, as in the case of diesel engines which require up to 7L.

Some dealerships include brake cleaning in their standard PMS so this is additional cost on top of the oil and oil filter.

May dashcam naman na ako. So kung kasama change oil with full synthetic ay aabot ba ng mga 7000 pesos ang PMS?

If you have your PMS done at the casa, that might be a good estimate. Maybe around 6k for an oil (synthetic) change plus brake cleaning and tire rotation. If there are other things that need to be replaced, the casa will tell you about it.
