Default Fluid Change - any reccomendations?

Hey all,

I am looking to change pretty much every fluid in my 350, just for some peace of mind, Trans, rear end, rad, power steering, etc.

If anyone has any good places they can reccomend in the Toronto area, that carries them all, please post.

Thanks

I just did the same at Speedstar in Markham. Changed engine, brakes (brembo), clutch, diff, tranny. It was a bit pricey, mainly because I used Motul for everything. Paid $490 for everything (fluids, labour, tax). They have cheaper fluids too if you'd prefer.

if you are uptown, def Speedstar. If you are downtown/west-end, def check out Automatrix or APH.

I will vouch for Speedstar they do quality work and prices are very reasonable. Plus they have a 350 they track...so they are pretty familiar with our cars.

That being said...go out to your driveway and change your fluids yourself! If you don't have a driveway...find a friend who does!

I just joined and thought maybe I can suggest an alternative, I have brought my cars to these two places for a while now and service and pricing is great...

First Place:
Apex Automotive Solutions
Jason Luu
647-299-8802
8 Laildaw Blvd, unit 7, Markham, ON

apexauto.sol@gmail.com

Second Place:
Pro-Spec Auto
670 Coronation Dr, Scarborough, ON M1E 4V8
416-284-8999

Either place is great...

Fluid wise:

Brake Fluid: ATE SuperBlue
Clutch Fluid: Motul RBF 600
MTF: half a bottole of Redline Shockproof heavy and the rest Motol motylgear
Oil: Shell Rotella 5W40
Rear Diff: Motul
