[Pisces44]

1. Is it legal to DIY engine oil change at MCP ?

2. if technical not legal but no people complain/kena, how to dispose of used engine oil ?

3. can we buy our own engine oil & ask workshop to change ? how much do they normally charge in this case ?

1. Legally = confirm no. I can't recall where and who mentioned before.. by right we are not even allowed to DIY at MCP.. but we do it as long we dun disturb the neighbours./make a mess of the MCP.

2. Bring to bike shop and ask to dispose of it legally. (if you know them, usually ok) Cuz they need to pay to dispose the EO legally

3. Yes, but usually they will not do cuz if anything is included in your EO and cause your engine to jam, you might dispute it's their workmanship. If workshop willing to help you, usually about $10-$20 depending on your relationship with them.

cause most of the people ignored and try to save that $2-$5 / EO change.. then pollute the environment lor.. honestly.. it's our next or next next generation that suffers from all the EO that pours back into the ocean/new-water that we bath/drink.. 

 

Thus I never buy from Shopee and Lazada (you wun know if it's real or fake also), pointless to save that little bit of money and also risk "rounding" your nut/ making a mess of your hand and etc.. Leave it to the professional..
