Thought on this, guys?
Recently I sent a car for check up at tyre workshop. Car hit something in the front, scratched the bumper at one corner near the tyre. Caused steering wheel significantly lari(too much). After done the checking, lower arm bengkok a bit. Can confirm this is legit(saw it myself, compare with other one, and the scratch mark was there). Damage: rm10(rotate tyres), rm20(alignment), rm40(nut kit/adjust camber) Car is Myvi btw. |

It's their way to make money since god knows when. Alignment charge itself doesn't include the camber nut adjustment. Alignment, different charges, adjust camber nut, different charges... plus attempt to sell us the 'adjustable' camber nut because the original one 'can't be adjusted' lol
