Thanks bro. Do you/anybody knows how much to replace compressor for my car? Its 1.6 satria
it wont cost an arm or leg, compressor pricing is pretty standard.
How much is it roughly? Just to get my mind ready :) i look in mudah, new recond can get RM200, workmanship around RM100 maybe?
Yeah, 1996 car.. before this, i was wondering which one will go first, either compressor or alternator. alternator gone last 2 years, meaning compressor won, at least for my case hahaWow! 22 years.....terror loh......
I went there, and found that compressor still can use. Problem is the hose is leaking, so replace the hose for RM90. Do some aircond service (never done since new), refill gas RM60, workmanship RM60 (from 1030 to 1430), and RM10 for something spray, i dont know, so total RM220. My cooling coil also tested and no leaking, still can use, Alex said. He said, his wira already 3 times changed cooling coil, Im so lucky..
I drive a 1.8. I had changed mine recently. Mechanic didnt say anything about hard to look. Forgot the price already
hey, glad you find his work and service good.I went there, and found that compressor still can use. Problem is the hose is leaking, so replace the hose for RM90.

Overall, I am very happy with his service and definitely will go again if got aircond problem. Thanks kurt for the recommendation.
Anyway, spotted your perdana outside the workshop, he said u wana sell it
oh... can do audio/electrical things also? thats good.hey, glad you find his work and service good.
My friends and myself have been going to his shop to do our audio/air con/electric related matters.
his work and pricing, are reasonable, not those usual workshop that we have been before.
So, now enjoying your aircon?
weather very hot lately
haha, we have been saying about selling the perdana for nearly 2 years..
just keeping it for sentimental values, also no market value..
mine is a manual.
yeah, i actually been thinking about it too. fast car that can also be family car.. evo x? airtrek turbo? i like mark x grx120.. 2.5 v6, very nice to cruise.. hehemine is a manual.
well, if you could heed my advise, i say stay stock.
Dont think of adding/transplanting etc.. the time spent at workshop is more than you actually drive it.
serious, if you want a more torque car, save up and buy a better one, that already comes with.
few questions that you should ask yourself,
nice bro.. will keep all these in mind. finally, it all come down to what you want (and how far you are capable of getting things that u want).few questions that you should ask yourself,
are you married?
Any children?
any loan?
salary?
your age.
myself, evo X and airtrek is out, expensive to maintain.. (i feel)
Mark X is nice but expensive spare parts too.
Satria is a nice car, just keep it for sentimental values.
No point selling it for that little money, it won't make any differences to your present life.
Cars are getting better all the time.
This year, market is slow and uncertain, many are expecting it to collapse base on the 10 years cycle.
Hence, holding on to your cash, buy when it's really a good deal. Instead of buying a car, buy a house, buy shares and make your money grow.
different age, different mentality.
When i was 20s, i want fast and speed.
30s, i want that look..
40s, i want safety, comfortable, classic, problematic free..
50s, to be update again when i hit that age.

40 is mid life crisis, 50 passed dy.....lolAccording to a learned friend ..
50s, get past mid life crisis first
I met one client of my mechanic. He also mentioned young time, power and lowered, now reaching 50 wants comfort and high up.....hhahhahahhahahdifferent age, different mentality.

For most people, the older we get, the more mortal we feel.I met one client of my mechanic. He also mentioned young time, power and lowered, now reaching 50 wants comfort and high up.....hhahhahahhahah
Mine still turbo and stiff suspension......lolFor most people, the older we get, the more mortal we feel.
For those that dont fit this category, we lablel them as midlife crisis
Still trying to figure out which category Izso & Ixeo fits in
wow, well educated.
Master in Petroleum Engineeringwow, well educated.
Master in?
Yeah, thats wise choice.
Cars are depreciating assets, secure a good job and for all you know, you be driving a top notch car in due future.
No worries, i know the kampong part.. chinese new year coming, i'm also using the perdana to go back
Best if in PE, but any will do, since degree in Mechanical, so I think Mech can go almost anywhere.. huhu tough time now to get job
yeah, try send. i think normal service he take RM120.. you can ask him to reconfirm
Agree with you..now market is kinda tough.Been trying to search for other job for few month but could not find suitable one yet.Not that my current job s*ck but i want something more. I believe all of us agree that the longer we work at a place it will soon becomes routine and our mind will stop growing.
Why not? Still consider a repair....
Agree with vr2, i have changed the bearing of the compressor once. before changed, it made real loud noise..
same philosophy with car.
