Never knew a Toyota could be so inflated. yah, i was like very big eyes d. The workshop guy said most toyota cars have this prob.....

Never knew a Toyota could be so inflated. if original and brand new parts, c segment parts are very VERY expensive. feel free to browse the inspira/lancer gt parts price list. altis is same segment same japanese make, it won't vary that far.

the alternator has like 6 biji fius. one of it burned d thats y my car battery not charging. so the boss changed all 6 fius, eventhough the other 5 is still ok. This is bcos when he import in the fius it is in a set of 6. So might as well changed all and price is still the same. I'm driving back now! woohoo!
