Opened up my engine today in another trustable workshop , engine is still full of gunk, first thing the foreman told was top overhaul was not done properly, attached the pictures, the Gunks are still there, the last picture shows the camshaft that was taken out and cleaned by the foreman just now, really I got conned. Cannot believe people can cheat like this, a good learning point for trusting people blindly

When you did the top overhaul, you did not go check on the work done?

They sent to their main branch at Bangi to repair, and second I didn't think people can cheat like this, this is my mistake sending to this workshop, now send the care to boys toys workshop at Senawang , very good service and reasonable price, wondering I never send the at the first place, lifters all taken out and bleed it

Yes this sound like everyone 1st time experience. I had tat b4 send to a workshop n said replace the new solenoid but less the a month the problem came again i send to other workshop to check. and I found out it was the old part install.

I try not to leave my car there to repair i rather to waste my time to watch them find the problem and fix.

Lucky I have a trust worthy mechanic who is now even a family friend. Even leave my car there he does not simply change parts. If need too change he will call tell me the price before changing. Sometimes can still use he tell me not to change and sometimes I got to insist he change......lol:biggrin:
