Tek Ming tyres at Sunway. Good thing about this shop is they can offer instant rim repair if they are dented unlike other shops which do not have the equipment to do so. Price is also reasonable.

Thanks for the suggestion bro smile.gif

Replaced the cooling coil with a local part (APM brand) which cost about RM500+. If it's Honda original, the aircond shop quoted me RM800+.

Together with expansion valve, gas refill and workmanship, it all came to about RM800.

Don't know whether I got slaughtered or not.

Confirm the cooling coil leaked, change to local brand (SWJ). Fill up the gas a day before and finish the day after, so the leak damn big.

Cooling coil+aircond air filter+refill gas+workmanship cost me 600++

Dont know the performance of the cooling coil brand, but warranty cover for 1 year.

Where did you change the cooling coil? Normally when cooling coil leaks, you can smell the gas refrigerant inside your cabin. It releases a weird plasticky smell.

Nilai. Yes, prior to the leak i do smell some stinky, but then it went away.

Hi everyone, my city mileage already clocked more than 200K. Sent to SC for service today and the SA advise me to change the gearbox/engine mount. They quote me for +1K for the parts. So I'm planning to search the part externally from SC just to compare the price. Any recommended spare parts shop or mechanic in Seremban area?

Buy parts separately from honda ori stockist and pay for workshop labor.

A ori set of 3 mounting is rm650-700
Labour was rm60 per mounting in KL for me previously

Hi all, I'm planning to change my City 2012 absorber. Been using the stock since bought now the rear become saggy and will hit the bump when the car is full load. I'm eyeing on the showa absorber and quoted by VMAG around 1.5 for all front and rear. Anyone experiencing using the absorber? possible to share some review. TQIA

Hi There,
i bought it from Shopee vendor sadly doesn't last long
in the end bought another unit but genuine item from Hingan since 2022 till now ..

I see, noted thanks. The price quoted by Hingan VS price is quite huge difference. Base on ur experience, looks like better to get the genuine item.
