any idea what is the brand of airbag our preve is using? Takata seems to be a problem now as a lot of car brands being recalled for its airbags.

QUOTE(terryble @ May 27 2015, 08:52 PM) hi guys~~ According to service schedule, air conditioning service is to be done every 30000KM. Compressor oil will be changed. Cabin air filter will be cleaned (which I already do myself).

RM120 for this service, that only changes compressor oil. But I do it anyway. Many advise to just let the aircon deteriorate until it ain't useful, then repair. It is indeed more cost effective. |

I believe prevention maintenance is important to keep the performance of the machine at its optimum level where it is intended... Just hope those technician really do a good job~~ |

Just hope those technician really do a good job~~ Just to make you feel better, while replacing the compressor oil, the refridgerant will deplete as well. So you'll be getting a new fresh refridgerant into your air conditioning as well. Hence RM120 for air con maintainance. |
