Just got my car towed back last night. Car broke down at Air Keroh R&R. Towed it back to Seremban. The tow truck was from Seremban and I followed him to collect my car. It only cost me RM180. That's freaking cheap!!!

But how much did it cost u to get ur car towed by the tow truck?
bro..can let me know the location and contact number…if really reasonable..i wan to send my car there to change clutch…JacEK said:one Sunday afternoon, my cluth pump leaked and disfunctioned at LDP, right before LDP Penchala toll. while I was trying to make phonecall, there was this uncle (40++ yrs old) with motorcycle offer his help. Since it was Sunday morning and my regular workshop is closed, I accepted his offer. He asked me to wait for him to get a new clutch pump and fix it for me.
I asked him how much, but he refused to tell and sped off. At the same time, i tried calling my workshop tauke to check on the price (in case kena potong mah). about 45minutes later, the uncle came back. somemore it was raining and i felt bad and pity him. he was all wet.
He still refused to tell me the price, and he keep telling me, "dun wori boy, dun wori, i have a workshop in kepong, i want long term customer....not 1 time customer". And he proceeded to fix it.
so, due to our same skin color and his sincerity, i believe he wont potong my leher lah and i allowed him to proceed. It took him half an hour to fix and my car is ready to go!
In the end...guess he charged me how much?? ..... RM180 including labour fee. Damn reasonable with all the trouble he went through, and since that day, I sent my car and all my family cars to his workshop until today. And my clutch pump still working well for the last 2 years.

RM90 for just 15km is too much..don't u feel like that? :Pemechelmi said:My car submerged up to the wiper level during last February major flood in Shah Alam. So I have no option, but to use tow truck service to tow my car to my mechanic in PJ oldtown. Since it was the time of good business for many tow truck operators, I was charged about RM90 for a 15km journey.
You were also charged RM90 like emechelmi? Why RM90 is a typical charge...:)beez said:Once my car broke down at Jalan P Ramlee. I'm at the middle lane and its jam on that time ( u know that road...) .. suddenly the engine just died off.. just like that, no warning whatsoever.
luckily i'm with 4 other members inside my car so they pushed the car at the side. tow it to workshop somewhere near lrg hj taib (if not mistaken). charged me rm90.
That must be very sad, not even 1 year, already involved in accident..but u r lucky everyone is ok...:)gohkokeng said:lol PANEL INSURANCE ma......claim insurance lor everything free la but pay fucking saman from polis station lor.....cause brandnew car....not even 1 year already accident no NCD yet.....just claim lor....hai nothing much can be done.
