some cars did install an addition fan to increase coldness.. yet it depends if its current system allows.

Hi, the fan motor only cost around RM 130 - RM 160 in a spare parts shops and you can get some mechanic to fix it for you for maybe between RM 20 - RM 50... it's quite easy that you can also fix it your self...
I had my Avanza air cond produce hot air out of sudden (I thought air cond spoiled) and then when I looked at the temperature meter, it went up... I checked at an radio accessory shop and they said fan motor rosak, and they quoted me RM 160. After that I checked at few spare parts shop and I got one denso made in indonesia-original for RM 125 and got a mechanic to fix for me for RM 20 = RM145... a bit driver here and there to survey price would have cost me RM 5 for petrol...

Hi guys, I am planning to choose between the Exora Bold CFE and Avanza 1.5 Premium. Some said Avanza is better as the running cost and the spare part is cheaper than Exora. Can anyone give comment on this?

After reading some post here, don't think the Toyota SC is so reliable. They sucks money without solving the real problem. Any good, cheap and nice mechanic/service shop to recommend in Klang Valley? My email is bcc98@hotmail.com

Avanza made from old Tech ofcoz cheaper, Exora bold is new and turbo. So exora will have some hidden and extra running cost later on when it come near above 40k mileage.

Hi all..,
I think for magnetic coil, we able to get the re-conditioning unit..
the performance can reach 6 month to 2 years..
the cost also not more then rm200, but not include delivery charges..,

It will not happen front cold rear hot..
As it is the same circuit...
If Bocor..both will bocor

Hi,
Sorry to read about your problem

Damage done cannot do anything.
Your workshop damn cunning..
Use you to trial and error and change all the expensive parts...

If u sent back to UMW Toyota
Or
DENSO.. They would have to follow their trouble shoot flow chart and strong evidence that suggest certain part failure before advising to change.

In your case,
Your mechanics has wrongly advised you to change parts without any strong analysis.

If you have sufficient proof that it was their poor analysis.. You can ask them for refund or forward this case to Tribunal Pengguna or some kesatuan pengguna.. Search internet.. Then seek their advice

Maybe your problem was gas leak or electrical problems that wrongly diagnosed by your workshop.

My previous experience with my another car (kancil) DENSO
Ended up changing the compressor, drier receiver and a few other cheap components for aircond not cold.
Diagnosed in DENSO HQ.

My 2009 Honda City was luckier..
The aircond not cold problem was only caused by a faulty relay. RM11.30 or something...

No need to refill gas, clutch or compressor or any other stuff.

They analyze all the possibilities of aircond not cold..
From electrical to mechanical before any conclusions.

Now my 2005 Avanza is having aircond not cold problem..

Will have to check it out.. From the cheapest possilities to the most expensive possibilities.. If they were to ask me trial and error.. Like your case

Just my thoughts..

Just came back from servicing my avanza 1.3 air-cond.
Total rm1600.00 consist of cooling coil, valve, condensor, refill gas, refill oil and labour.

if avanza front cold, rear aircond 2 cold 1 hot when parking, when driving all rear.3.become.cold, any sifus know what happen ? thanks

Finally know what happen, change cooling coil and magnetic clutch settled, ori parts with 1 year warranty cost less than rm650

You mean change rear cooling coil? I have similar problem also

Yaya, change the rear parts, for the rear aircond the part is whole set, you need to change whole set. I changed in Toyota cost rm650 with 1 year warranty, so I think so it is worth it. Until now almost 1 and half year still very cold, previously 150000km no service aircond before.
