I sent my Wira to replace radiator fan motor (Nippon Denso brand), the car workshop
charged me RM 215 for part and labor, was it expensive?

Also to replace Wira clutch cable, they charged me RM 125 for part and labor, was it
expensive?

Thanks...

Radiator fan about that price lar, depends they give you good parts or not.

Clutch cable do seems more expensive, maybe coz there more job involved.

I just checked the spare parts price (after installed Wira radiator fan motor and clutch cable) :

(1) Wira radiator fan motor: RM 65 (Nippon Denso)
(2) Wira clutch cable: RM 38

I think they charged me RM 215 (part & labor) to install the radiator fan motor
is too expensive, the installation job is very simple... I think they rip me off..

the radiator fan motor got different quality one, some is priced 100 plus.

well, take this as a lesson. better to buy parts from spare part shop and look for mechanic to install it, cheaper but need use a bit of your time.

They installed Nippon Denso radiator fan motor (spare part cost is about RM 65),
they charged RM 150 for labor is too high, don't you think so..?

it is expensive bro.. for job like this the labor around rm20..
parts value only rm60 for fan motor, and rm40 for clutch cable.. both actually easy to install.. even me tried DIY last time..  wink.gif

I noticed it was very easy and took less time to install the radiator fan motor,
I agreed with the price RM 215 (part and labor) before they installed it.
Obviously, they cut my throat...

And I am their regular customer, I do not think I will go there anymore..
this car workshop does not know how to keep their regular customer..

Really do not know which reliable car workshop should I go for..?

Never mind lah.. we all expected Mercedes Benz parts are like that.

By the way, Mercedes was a girl name, Mercedes Benz founder used her daughter name Mercedes
as the car brand name... biggrin.gif
