Hi,
I'm a first time car owner and don't know any mechanics. I now own a new model 99 Celica which needs an 80,000 KM service.
What's a place to go in Sydney Eastern Suburbs? Sydney City Toyota will charge around $521 for this service.
Should I go to UltraTune, Midas, Kmart Auto?
Should I go to a local mechanic (recommmend me one)?
P.S. Why isn't Celica in the spelling dictionary.

Anywhere you go, it's gunna be expensive, especially if genuine parts are used...
You'd be better off going to a Toyota dealer as the coolant is an absolute prick to change...

Coolant hard to change? I would have thought this would be easy. Drain out old coolant. Flush. Half fill with Toyota red stuff and other half with distilled water.
