Recommendation: Reliable workshops in JB

[xiaozhi86]

Went to jet cheng auto service
Near Sutera mall

full set less spring Toyota absorber - 3500rm
Radiator fan motor -480
Steering rack 2800
Engine mounting 2450
Brake fluid -150

Workmanship is not bad - price is reasonable . Not ex but not the cheapest , comparable to Singapore for some parts

engine mounting 2450? You drive toyota and confirm is chop carrot price.

Some stuff cheap some stuff expensive

Mounting is expensive
Rack is almost the same
Absorbers and alignment is cheaper
Radiator fan motor - cheaper

labour to install brake pads and rotor cheap.

Next time go find JB stockist and buy from them. should be cheaper as they quote should be include their SST tax unlike SG here still need add 9% GST on whatever they quote

Anyone been to M8 Tint Shop? Hows their service and the quality of their solar film and coating?

I think its not bad, so far using the tint for about 5 months only though. They have warranty so anything can go back and they'll change for you I supposed? Rmb to make appointment to prevent waiting time.

Lten Pro Ah Chen, unless if i got the wrong contact. I conversed in both English and Chinese over Whatsapp.

Messaged him in October 2019, never reply. Messaged him again to install BBK on December 2023, never reply again.

Doesn't give a good impression haha. I mean at least reply me man.

Not too keen to walk-in straight, cause yall mention he is One-man show.

So still trying random workshops at Austin area haha.

Need to call him. Or drive to his shop and talk to him. Busy guy.

Personally i like to seek clarification before heading down, to avoid any disputes.

More importantly whether can be done on that day itself bah.

I managed to find a workshop at Jalan Ros Merah there, boss quite friendly and so far never chop carrot.

Alignment RM$30
Install and Balance tyre RM$20/tyre

Motul 8100 Engine Oil
Oil Filter
Engine Flush
Engine treatment below RM$300

Actually that area alot of workshop, but havent tried the rest.

Just to share, when you put the pricing pls omit the dollar sign.

Just put it as alignment RM30 - Ringgit Malaysia 30, not Ringgit Malaysia Dollar 30 (RM$30)

Hi guys, any reliable and reasonable priced Audi workshop in jb? Aircon compressor need to be fixed and all other wear n tear issue

 

[xGaikoz]

Just curious, what is the difference?

Malaysia uses RM (Ringgit Malaysia) not RM$ (Ringgit Malaysia Dollar), u merged Malaysia+Singapore currency

RM30 for alignment is using computer system~?

 

[xGaikoz]

Yes dirt cheap, but is using those knock off china "hunter" equivalent alignment system.

I also bought Malaysian Brand "Gab" HE Coilovers, RM$1550 with installation.

Feels ok qutie similar to BC V1/BR equivalent, but the drawback is Hi Low Bodyshift without damper adjustment. But truthfully speaking, majority won't go and adjust anyways.

Only question is reliability, but it's dirty cheap cannot "hiam" already Labour for Lowering Springs/Coilovers already RM300-400

 

[xGaikoz]

But during the coilover alignment, i got charged additional RM40 for Toe in adjustment.

Close one eye lorh. RM70 for alignment, is still a steal almost 1-to-1 as compared to SG.

Tyre punctured. Wonder SG can patch or Malaysia to change tyre..

Can patch of course patch lah~ are you on spare tire now~?

 

[xGaikoz]

Depends on the severity of your puncture.

Malaysia tyres might not be cheaper, especially if is 17" and above.

Can try whatsapp and ask for prices first.

 

[suchaloser]

In the end, went to one of the SG shop and change tire cos they say can't patch.... not sure true or not.

the cut at the groove line~?? can't see any nail/ screw~ but if its the cut, still can repair leh~

 

[suchaloser]

The piece that cuts through is the silver thing in the circle. It's like a broken off penknife. I'm surprised they can't patch the cut line. Need expert to comment haha

This one~? I had done few tyres repair myself before, as long is not the side wall, it should be able to repair~ the cut doesn't look severe to me~
