That's odd, considering you DIY so much, how is it you'd want to pay for labour for something so easily DIY-able?

Or do you only DIY when there's a certain amount of CF involved? :s13: :s13: :s13:

Just buy the filter, open your bonnet, find where the filter box is, unclip the locks, then replace the filter.

FOC.

Wow! Bro you are super popular sia.
1 'simple' question yet kanne 'arrow'.

Think different car, the air filter is placed differently.

My humble opionion, the labour cost should not cost more than $10 ba.
Believe $5 should be reasonable thou if you are doing standard servicing.

Anything more expensive than that, hhhmmmm believe you can try to lean to Do It Yourself as everyone said here.

Seen a few of your DIY's project here.
So looking at your ability, do not think it will be hard for you to do so, nevertheless it may be troublesome at time to get it done which you may want to pay and get it done.

Hhmm I do not know if TS meant by, he will drive to a WS and ask them to change just the air-filter.

Will that be free too?

Like that won't be free. Change during regular servicing, usually they won't charge extra labor cost for it. :)

caused most of the time, the 'labour charge' had already been considered into your servicing cost.....

Yup. If the workshop charge me additional labor for changing air filter i'd make noise lor, coz it is just a 5min job. Anyway my workshop charge me a one time labor cost instead of per item. :o
