Hi bros, is there any good workshop in jb with price cheaper than sg for change of my car fan motor? Mine is a Suzuki sx4
Not worth going all the way there for fan motor la. Just buy from stockist and get any workshop to do locally.

Any recommended specialist workshop for Mercedes-Benz? Used to go to Edge Works but I think they are more specialised in VAG cars like Audi. Thanks!

Do you have the address for the wheel alignment place? I went to Hawk Tayar previously and they charged me 90RM for alignment.

Conti rides always more expensive than B&B rides when come to any servicing and repairs.

I used to own a MB. Went all the way to BC Tyre & Battery Services @
Lot Auto City 2&3, TJ Mart, Saleng, 81400 Senai, Johor.
Find them on FB.
I rem was RM 50-60

Depends on size of car... Estimate should be less than RM100.
Sheng Auto, popular in this thread. Look for Jackson. Is a distance away from woodland custom.
Find them on FB. Better make booking before go.

Can check price around t those near KSL area. Price should be higher as this area are JB downtown.

For Hyundai and Kia owner, here's a way to find and buy cheaper replacement parts online.

https://hyundai.catalogs-parts.com/#{client:e7dqgl;page:models;lang:en;catalog:gen}

Use the above link with your VIN to find out the more details of your car.

Then using the same link and the part number of the aftermarket parts, u can check whether they are suitable for your car before you buy.

After buying, bring to a WS further up north with lower labor cost for installation... Or DIY

Just to share, I went to try out a workshop in Permas Jaya called Tung Chun Motorsport. They do a lot of Hondas (some Google reviewer said they are Honda specialists), and I saw 2 old SG plate Civics visit them today.
I went to get my 4 engine mountings changed, plus change of EO and ATF. Only oil filter was from them. Boss gave me a package rate of MYR300, which seemed reasonable. I did ask another workshop nearby regarding change of engine mountings, and he quoted "about MY250". So I guess it's close enough.
Chat with another Singaporean there waiting for a friend, and he said he has been using them for the past 5-6 years, while his friend has been with them for around 11. Happy to have an alternative which seemed trustworthy.

Reached at around 10am, and done by 1215pm. I did notice the boss and his 2 workers checking something out undercarriage while preparing to change EO and ATF, but I couldn't really tell what it was. When paying, the boss then explained to me that one of the nuts was overtightened in the past, resulting in it not being able to tighten fully. Told me to notify him in advance next time and he'll get a replacement nut to resolve this issue, and assured me that it's ok for now. Therefore, I didn't have to probe what the issue was.
Hi, you have the WhatsApp no of Tung Chun Motorsport?

Would you recommend any particular workshop for basic servicing and maintenance? Thinking of heading up this weekend for servicing and belt chnage, i wonder if cny is gg to cause any long q at the workshops
