Hey guys, can anyone help me with this?

I'm having some problem with my Mazda 3, so I sent it in to the Mazda service centre at Federal highway

Turns out, there's a problem with the transmission, but get this: they are quoting me Rm30,000 to fix it

Anyone has any idea on a better place to get it fixed? Rm30k is a bit too much

No more warranty? Crazy to pay RM30k to fix it. Better check because sometimes certain parts have warranty longer than the initial 3-5 years.

It's an old car, since 2009, so pretty sure no more warranty

I don't mind having to pay to fix it, but Rm30k seems a bit surreal

What was wrong with the transmission that they have to quote you so expensive?
Is it the Transmission Control Unit?

Did they quote you the WHOLE Transmission itself?

Yes, they said they only are able to change a new gearbox. Still, is Rm30k normal for a gearbox?

They also said if I want to overhaul it I have to do it myself outside, they can't do it for me

What symptom did you had before you send in fire diagnosed? 2009 is first generation Mazda 3? I had one also, very solid performer.

It had difficulty shifting gears. When I accelerated, instead of shifting into higher gear, it tends to feel like it goes neutral for a while as if nothing is engaged, before shifting into higher gear with a hard jerk
