I just need somewhere to do a filter and oil change on my '95 MR2. Perhaps the rest of the servicing as well when it comes round to it, (full service due later in the year) or should i just go to Toyota and be poor frown. In Toyotas defence the prices arent too bad on some services in the history.

Although how do you do a coolant flush of a 14L+ coolant system with a 5L bottle of coolant? So perhaps someone who will do everything fully.

Probably could do with a spark plug change and brake fluid replacement soon as well. I can always source the genuine toyota parts myself at a bit of a discount if i know what i need before the work is done.

Any ideas please?

By not using it undiluted!

Even half filled then half distilled water it would need 7+L of coolant. I'm pretty sure that it should be pre mixed and ready to go in. Either way 5L isnt enough.

If you frequent IMOC or MR2OC you will have heard of SBITS in Barnsley - that's me!

Thanks for that Peter, i have heard of SBITS before on IMOC in particular.

I didnt realise you were based in Barnsley. I'd quite like a few small bits from Twos r us as well thinking about it. I'll contact you about getting an oil and filter change and perhaps a spark plug change for my N/A later today as its time to get some sleep.

Thanks.
