Hi ~ anyone know how much does a V-belt cost?
Just serviced my car in SS19 SC and the technician said V-belt needs to be change at next service. And I also asked them to fix the noisy dashboard. Noise still there but not as loud but glove box can't close properly. Will set appointment again this week  This post has been edited by iLegend: Jul 3 2012, 10:58 PM |
