QUOTE(SamsengFan @ Sep 18 2014, 02:26 PM) last week my window cant wind up due some ball bearing got out of rail, maklumlah, old car, hence normal tear n wear.my objective is to put back the ball back into the rail only. the boss of lim tayar came and examine, plug out another rail with a plastic proytective bearing covering it. and he claims the plastic is wore off due to aged. for god sake i am standing THERE WATCHING, he assume i mislooked or something that he just plug out somehting from my car. Howverr it is true as per i c memang already gone case but i can still choose to fix back the original bearing that is out of rail and my window will b up again without needing to fork out 600++ just to replace an old regulator/switch/rail and bearing as per mentioned everything looks intact to me except for the 5 sen size plactic covering the smaller bearing which is totally out of the question. what i did was i don bother as i only as them to put back the loss bearing back to the window rail and there goes 35 for opening and assmebling bacxk the ball into rail. abt changing the whole regulator and window switch is really rediculous. and it happened in lim tayar latest branch in bangsar. moral of the story, do stand beside the mechanic and understand from them instead of the boss that claims need to change the whole mechanism just for simple wire issue which is later cos a bomb.

QUOTE(neato4u @ Sep 18 2014, 09:01 PM) Now you know how to open the door, can just do it yourself in future. yep,Cars are just like PCs. If (some) pc technician knows that you know shit about computers when you hand it over to them for repairs, they'll say that the motherboard need replacement while it's just the CMOS battery that needs changed. Because you know nothing about computers, you fork out RM500 to replace the mobo rather than spending RM5 for changing battery. Learning about cars is good so we don't get cheated by mechs. For simple stuffs we can DIY, but of course complex require additional big boys tools that we don't have, so we need to send the car over. But still, at least we know something and can fight back. i learnt bit by bit for standing next to the mechanics, i usually standby and watch as i don trust them with the works hence i learnt too. meanwhile i don really like to leave my car for overnight, are there any cases where i can get back my car like one day. i can spend whole day watching them. i just need to spray my car roof. |

QUOTE(technod @ Sep 18 2014, 11:24 PM) 1) Leave it at the workshop to change oil for awhile, end up changing timing belt. Apparently the guy showed me inside the belt got cut. I wonder how on earth did he manage to see that. just to add on, idshonest mechs will tukar away your parts and changed to old parts if yours is new. hence really need to keep an eye. especially your car is a common car where parts are easily swapable.2) Changing spare tyre with fixed punctured tyre. After reaching my place, i realised my tyre air cap was rubber instead of metal. Went back and the guy pretend like puzzled and change to metal. But without me checking it, it wasnt the same cap. 3) Changing to new 15" sport rim. End up need to change absorber because 14" different so they say. Later, that absorber making a irritating sound while driving. Lesson learn: A)Dont leave your car. B) Watch them working. C) Keep your tyre metal cap 1st before changing tyre lel the same theory that second hand sales dealer practice where u c the car is only use for 2-5 years, but inside looks like 10years which does not tally with the intel shared. hence sales person will cover up with BS like blaming previous owner uses the car like a cow. commonly happened to door panel and the radio inside the car. some worst scenario is signal indicator looks like got into a terrible acids spray. the previous owner is alien i think. don buy from dealer buy straight from owner and no additional 3-5k stupid charge that only causes less than RM200. |
