Just sharing what was told by the mechanic in jb.

The mechanic actually prefer me to bring my own parts as he mentioned that he sometime also dont know the parts from malaysia if it real or fake(well that can be how bad it is?).

Take it with a pinch of salt for these words.
So if I can, I always bring my parts over to ensure it is original.

Any money changer around LCH? preferably walking distance near by?

don't wish to exchange too much RM but also concern not enough for the extra repair.
Thanks.

Hi all, I'm driving an 09 Kia Cerato Forte. I am due for 120,000km servicing, changing atf, brake fluid, spark plugs etc. Any recommendations for workshops? Thanks in advance. First time planning to head to JB for car servicing.

1 of the reasons is our roads are not built flat throughout.
Being a topical country with lot of rainfall, our road surface will be lean toward either sides.

Bushings.
Forgotten what word/part...it's part of the steering.
The problem is quite specific, steering will turn to either left or right but not both sides. Usually is to the left.

I just changed 2-3 months ago at LCH.

i think you can tell them the prob and let them have a check first.

ya I'll need to go back to them. they did the alignment. problem still there. went back and they swap the front tires. still pull left. gotta ask ah yuan to help troubleshoot. :(
