It is part true. The air cond is not maintenance free part. You need to pay at least RM700 to do part service that includes cleaning the coil, changing the exchange valve, cleaning the blower, replacing the oil, top up gas, replacing corroded hose and more. It would cost near to RM900-1000 if you opt to change the radiator fan motor & radiator plastic top housing. If your compressor done for, that would definitely cost  RM2000. Should do it at around 30-50K mileage.

I tell you what my mechanic told me was true.

- 2006-2012 Myvi all radiator and cooling coil are single fan powered. So if the radiator fan fails, the air cond is at its mercy. You get hot air as first indicator.

- If you change the fan motor, you have to.... I SAY YOU HAVE TO change the plastic radiator top housing. That is also the weakest part of the cooling system. Constant low water in radiator expansion tank is an indicator.

No wonder my wife’s myvi SE 2008 always got problem with aircond.

Replaced aircon magnetic clutch 3 times, then changed the compressor once then the radiator top plastic housing too.

Too much maintenance i must say, especially for aircond system.

Yes, sentimental value sometimes clouds our judgment. If you are not willing to spend any more on repairs, time to let it go.

No other way around it. Because they designed the engine cooling and condenser cooled by a single fan. My mech did suggest adding a second fan on the condenser side to increase cooling performance. Which will work. But i saw a local shop that can fit a new gen radiator fan from Myvi Lagi Best to old style myvi fan that should solve all the problems once and for all. laugh.gif

Engine mount all 4 pieces is just less than 300rm. If include workmanship should be around 400rm

My 2010 Myvi also having the same problem like you described.
But there is no vibration if I stop and start after driving for 15 minutes. What could be the reason? Not sure if this is also engine mounting issue.

I had an old Myvi 2006 that I still keep although seldom use
Last month spent 300 change aircond magnetic clutch..
Seems like many things starts to fail aging

Latest problem today is when I press accelerator
There is small vibration with loud rattle sound from rear left area
But when I don't press, there is no sound while the car still moving smoothly like normal...
Only when I press accelator got this sound
Tried at different speed 30kph/90kph still same..
Any car sifu can advise?
I really hate going to Workshop kena chop lagi...

Update:
Changed engine mounting 1 set
Problem solved
Feels like new Myvi again lol
