Chiongkakis Clutched March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 I just called up autosaver to check about replacing my '06 toyota rush absorber (pricing to replace all 4 absorber), they quoted me 1500. Sounds reasonable or knife sharp sharp? what do you guys think? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
renhau 3rd Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 You can call stockist to check price. 1500 definitely cutthroat. Labour to install 1 absorber in SG ard 40. Bolehland RM120/pair.

handsomebob Neutral Newbie April 5, 2015 Share April 5, 2015 Hi all, i am a 1st time car-owner n just bought a 2nd hand Mazda 2, left with 2 years to scrap. I went into JB Hup Heng Ang to change my tyres n to get my car checked. I was told that the shock absorbers r gone n it will cost me about rm1.6k to replace all 4. (Rm760 for front, rm600 for rear and rm200 for labour.) I do hear a 'thump' everytime i go past a hump Is it a decent price or a rip-off? Or i will have better luck with a local garage? Alternatively can i source for a used shock absorber? Regards Noob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrix0405 5th Gear April 15, 2015 Share April 15, 2015 (edited) Car 6 mth left. Starting to ride like a boat. Think only the back absorbers are gone. What do you guys recommend? 1) Get recon absorbers & hope it last 6 mth? 2) Buy from scrap yard and pray? 3) Buy new and fix in JB? How much for the labor only? Anyway, car is Tucson, anybody close t scrap and want to sell parts? Edited April 15, 2015 by Matrix0405 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prob go for TC package, OEM ones doesnt last as long and also depends how u drive. IF not buy from stockist and bring to workshop of ur choice to change. 3 years is still long.... This is my 2 cents worth Edited September 4, 2015 by cllq Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamessamuel Neutral Newbie September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 Where you drive your vehicle. If you are driving on rough roads, then it requires early replacement. It costs between $700-$800. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastamaniac Neutral Newbie September 25, 2015 Share September 25, 2015 Hi everybody. Sorry to hijack this thread as I can't post new ones yet. Was quoted $800 to change all 4 shocks for my 2005 corolla altis, which includes alignment and labour. Checked with Ric Tat, the whole set is $278. Seems like the much more economical option is to get at Ric Tat and find a workshop to do it. Any reliable workshop to recommend with them just charging for labour? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eveei 2nd Gear November 12, 2015 Share November 12, 2015 My Lancer GLX 1.6M 2007, need to change all 4 shock absorbers FULL SET, with mounting, stopper/cover and spring (as per my mehcanic, i not sure the part names) but I only manage to find from Tye Soon just the shock absorber only. Any advise, where I can find whole set together or is it safe to buy them from separate places , if they will fit. Any indication how much the parts? Tried asking few spare parts shop in JB but cant find for Lancer model Thank you 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eveei 2nd Gear November 13, 2015 Share November 13, 2015 Quite sceptical that the spring needs to be changed..... Thanks Flashbang. I forgot to mentioned, my car was lowered by the previous owner with full set of D2 adjustable coilover or whatever you call that. Now the front right side absorber leaks & I cant get just 1 or 2 front replacement only. Since I have to get all 4, I tot I go back the original "un-lowered", as I have to do lots of running in Bolehland with potholes & humps EVERYWHERE. So, my mechanic said MUST buy full set with spring. Your comments and advise, please. My car 15 months to go ONLY lo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
