Hi guys . Any review for this shop ? My alternator just fail yesterday night . Need to fix it today .

Thanks to you Jimmy. And thank god i found this thread, I was driving to City Auto Spare part in Taman Tasik, Johor Bahru or J.B. Then I stop on the road side and tried for the last time to search in google for alternator service. I guest luck was on my side just before I reach City Auto Spart. So i prayed that the uncle shop is.still exist. So i set my Waze to Jalan Dedap and there i found the shop. Thank goodness it was still there just like way back in 2015 when Jimmy put.up the thread. So i talk to this uncle show him the grinding noise from alternator and he asked me to bring my car inside. Mine is Wish 2009 recond.model from Japan.
I will update soon...just wait.

Hi guys, due to excitement I decided to post.some. another picture here from the shop that serviced my alternator. Pic shown my 2009 Wish engine bay. Easy to bring out the alternator.coz of.the location in Wish 2009 is at the top of engine bay unlike some car at the bottom.

Actually there was 3 bearing for.the alternator. Mine was Denso alternator. 1 bearing was for the alternator pulley, another 2 bearings was inside the alternator. See that the bearing housing was already a bit exposed when the mechanic took out the pulley.
And there was rusted steel dust inside the bearing pulley. That explained the brown dust that I saw sticked on to d outer casing of.the alternator earlier.a few.days ago.

Hi danial01,

You are most welcome, that's the purpose of this thread, to share good stuffs.

So, did the shop solved your problems? And whats the cost for repairing?

Nice one danial01. Don't keep us waiting for too long. Let us know how it went

Hi Jimmy, feel good to read that you are still active here in LYN. Yes, I think so far solved oleady, but will monitor this for 2-3weeks time. Hmm ..total damaged was RM300 (actually the second boss write receipt of rm305 ) . Actually there were 3 persons working in the workshop..will continue

Hi, will do update picture soon.

Pic shown above: So dirty inside the alternator pulley . The other end of the alternator pulley

3 person working here. The first chap, young man , i think he is the one who do the heavy & complicated job, taking out alternator from inside the engine- if d alternator is at the top then his job will be easy, if at the bottom then it is more difficult coz need to jack up the car and take out from bottom.





Above pic shown this uncle receive the alternator from the young chap and working on the alternator inside out.

When the other customer wanted to pay, the younger chap asked him to pay to this towkay. He is the one who wrote the receipt for me( I guest may be he is the share partner or longest time one working here.)
The other uncle, I think he is the one who is really d big boss here coz most of the time he only monitor the older guy and young chap do the job from his sitting place

Might be nice if TS can update 1st page to the latest adress.

Thanks for the update. Now that I learn alternator can be fixed I won't get a recond anymore unless it cannot be repaired.

Thanks If you were to be kelar-ed at other shop, how much you think you'd have to pay for a reconditioned alternator for the Wish?

I guess ( more to guesstimated ) may be around rm500-600++ for non Denso alternator. I guess for Denso recond may be can fetch a price of 700-900. Before that I did asked the guy at City Auto Sparepart the price of the ori Denso, and be told that for ori Denso is RM1200++ (that not including labour charge at the workshop ) The common one people who own Toyota cars always go for replacement one, but not Denso, made in China but technology are from Japan ( sort like Japanese join venture with China factory)

I also asked the uncle who serviced the alternator to replace all the bearings and brush carbon, but upon checking the brush carbon still got 1/3 ok. So no need to change, will take long time before need to change he said. ( I said to myself, they seem to be honest , if not, like some other rip-off shop surely they will replace whatever they can.

Some unscrupulous workshop even replace the parts without asking you first. This happened to my brother, when first came to workshop they quot rm2500 to fix his 20 years old kancil, after finish the job, it was a rude shock to him when they charge to rm4500!! Saying that certain parts got to be replaced. They dont even call to ask him first. Haihhh..

Is this the one at kepong?

Nope, this one at Jalan Dedap, Taman Melodies, Johor Bahru.
