Aiyo unless your AC system has been opened, no need to flush anything. Just make sure your condenser clean and cabin filter changed regularly. If your AC is no longer cold chances are there is a leak somewhere, cooling coil too dirty or compressor end of life already.

Alamak. Cabin filter same as AC filter? Never been changed so just changed.

Im wondering how many of you ever replace brake shoe by yourself and actually know how it works.

Anyway, the tightness and the height of parking brake is by adjusting the parking brake wire, not brake shoe. So ts, they probably just removed the drum for cleanup and did manual adjustment on adjuster (for drum contact). It's not necessary to touch the adjuster though but It won't hurt if they not overdoing it.

I wasn't paying attention. Really didn't notice the whole process. Saw his assistant pouring in new atf oil from BP castrol can. Now cursing myself for not watching them work throughout. I took his advice to enjoy aircon in his office cos superhot today. Haishhh

I am wondering the hand brake really gets higher over time? He showed me level 1 to 5 (something like that) and mine was 5. I was told lower better means grip is strong. Then he said gets higher because atf not enough already. In my head I can't connect hand brake with gear oil that's why felt Kena duped and post here to clarify.

Now handbrake so low like level 1. So what really causes it to go higher over time?

So seemed like he just top up but charged full change price. Takpe. One time business for him. Will let the old partner knows. This new partner dishonest will cause him old customers that he has built so hard over a decade.

So real fix is just adjust or tighten the cable and max cost rm50? Any issue if don't adjust even when it slowly rises to level 5? Car will slip when parked on hill slope?

Full change must change ATF filter right. Another forumer said atf filter rm240? Filter so expensive or typo?? In my bill no atf filter.
