car almost at 100 000 km


Question Posted Thursday January 5 2006, 8:56 pm

I have a question about my car. It's a 1997 Toyota Tercel. It's in great shape, I've never had any problems with it. The last time it was serviced was in the summer when I got new tires.
Well the car is at about 92 000 km. I was told when my car had a major service at 50 000 km that the next major one would be at 100 000,
I have a bit of money saved up right now from xmas and my job.
Does anyone know what normally needs to be done to a car when it reaches this milestone? It wouldnt be more than 300 dollars would it?
I will rate 5's if you answer me!

if theres nothing wrong with it, it should be fine. The major things that should be checked are the brake lines, pads, tires, allignment, other fluid lines, transmission, as well as a possible e test. Prices vary from company to company, so try calling around to a few places locally. Tell them that your car is nearing 100k, and what their standard procedure is and how much that costs.
This is going to sound terrible, but if you're a girl, get a man to call. Garages treat women like children and assume you know nothing about cars; theyre also more likely to overcharge a woman. If you're a guy, then you shouldnt have a problem.
