Yesterday i went to repair Power steering rack of a Toyota Aqua 2012 (Due to noise issue) First i went to new lathe work place to know it can be repaired guy says yes charges is Rs6500.00 for total repair (if pinion worn out it should also repaired + replace the Bush). then i went to totally new place to remove and fix the rack which was a place lathe workshop guy recommended. They remove rack just took 10 to 15 minutes using hydraulic jack and lathe workshop repaired rack within 30 minutes and the fixing again took 15 minutes.
My problem is they charge Rs 6500.00 for only remove and fix the rack (Total cost is Rs13,000.00) and i feel i was ripped off by garage people. The last time i done this same job for Honda Fit GP1 (different places) rack repair cost was Rs2500.00+ remove fixing charges Rs.3500.00 Total Rs.6000.00 one and half year ago.
Anyone who did a Steering Rack repair recently let me know is this charges reasonable?
Is there an alternative to the Maruti 800? A friend of mine is looking for an extremely cheap to run and fix car for around 1.5M. While I do advocate old Japanese cars in that budget - if his need is basic A-B motoring at the lowest possible cost - maintenance wise and with fuel - is there any other option that I am forgetting?
Does anyone know how exactly this is supposed to work? They haven’t really started brand new imports again right?
Pricing seems relatively fine in the grand scheme of things, given how 10/15 year old cars are still pretty expensive in our market
A guy advertises a mileage blocker on the quick site saying that his device blocks the vehicle mileage from changing on the odometer. Is it legal to advertise stuff like this?
Bought a 2007 (Reg 2011) Vitz SCP90 (Mileage 180K+) for the family (will be used by my father). Seems to be in good condition but had some new owner repairs/replaces done to have a free mind.
