their list price is quite expensive. 
 
serviced my corolla several times 2-3 years back at discount price ( 70% of the list price), not too bad for 10k, 30k simple service, but I don't like their 5w-40 and 5w-50 synthetic oil, 5w-30 is better for new car.

Also took their premium package at 40k, with engine flush, and brake fluid, auto transmission oil renew,
right after servicing FC drooped sharply from 15 to 12, until I sold my car at 70k, FC never came back
15 km/L , must something wrong. :crycry:

You are still unhappy with mileage of 15km/l for your Corolla?  :confused1:

I have been using their service since 20k servicing. Now approaching 50k. So far ok for me.

I am not happy with 12km/L,   it used to be 15km/L before 40k service at comfortdegro.

right after the service, it droopped significantly.

I choose shell helix ultra 5w-40, at my 20k, 30k and 40k service, should be quite good Engine oil.

just suspect something wrong during engine flush.

Helix Ultra is a reputable engine oil.

Most personal friends who work in automotive industry acutally discourage flushing the engine for a low milege & relatively new car as it causes more problems.

A really good lesson to learn!
flushed the engine at that time because it was included in premium package, thought it is equivalent to 40k major service , now I believe this package is applicable to these high mileage car.

Hi, so when will it be considered a good mileage to do engine fluching? 30K?

i did my 40k servicing(with the so-called special engine flush) there for my previous car.  FC dropped and engine seems rougher and noisier. not to mention it was expensive.  not recommended  :mad:

anyway think there should be workshops that offer better value for $ servicing package.
