The other day my Hyundai Elantra kept jerking, and brought my car to check. The foreman open up the ignition coil and spark plug to check 1 by 1, ended up i had to replaced 1 of the ignition coil. and i was charged RM40 for labour fee. Is this labour fee reasonable?

Reasonable as he replaced your faulty coil and settled your problem.
Wait till you meet some foreman that charge you RM50 for labor but cannot settle your problem. Want cheaper labour fee, go troubleshoot and repair yourself. |
