How often to get fittings lubed?

**ironarch** · May 27th, 2003 04:53 PM

Wow often should you have all the fittings done?

Once a year? Twice a year?

I read somewhere that you should get it done after every underwash just in case ma-wash away but it seems unlikely cause naka seal naman yung fittings.

I had it done na rin anyway right after I got an underwash the other day and asked the guy there. He said "pag mukhang wala nang laman...palitan na."

Diba naka seal nga... so how do you check?

ako every 5000 kms sabay sa change oil. mura lang naman e, around 12 bucks per fitting.

I have 12 fittings to be lubed (mits montero SWB). last time I had it done they charged me 30 bucks per fitting = P360.00

Kung every 5000 km thats about 3-4 times a year (depending on usage).

Siguro I'll compromise na lang with twice a year before and after rainy season.

30 bucks lipat ka na lang sa ibang gas stations merong 7 bucks lang (caltex a. lacson) 12 bucks (shell retiro)

just ask around mabilis lang naman iyan gawin less than 10 minutes tapos na yan.

ArtPogi, what i understood as I was reading this thread, ay ito yung mga GREASABLE FITTINGS, like sa MitsL200 PICK-UP ETC, wala po nito ang Lancer series o kotse, ewan ko lang sa ibang modelo.

I know...mahal talaga. nag pa-under wash lang ako nang na-isipan kong mag pa-lube tapos nung nakuha ko ang bill P30 daw per fitting. Na-taga yata ako. I had it done sa Dallas Service center sa Morato near corner of E. Rodriguez.

Lesson learned...ask how much first. mahirap pag nagawa na. buti na lang yun lang yon and not something major.
