Hi guys, need your advise on changing em for stream of 8yrs plus. Is it worth to change? Stamford charging $600plus. Any impact if i dun change it? Or is it ok not to get an ori em? I was tinking to scrap it at 10yrs. Thnks all!

I just change mine car is sylphy all 3 mounting include labour is $420.0 outside workshop. Any impact if don't change I guess this is very subjective only you know and how bad is the condition now as compared to you first drive. Normal mounting is about 140K mileage or 5 to 6 year lifespan cause the rubber will harden over time.

For my case noted when at traffic light with brakes applied and gear at "D" position, when car is new no sound. Over time there is this tak tak sound coming and sound gets louder over time. after change, car feels like new very shiok to drive.

 

Just base on my experience.

Actually, it is usually the engine mount dampener that is broken. 

 

There are usually 4 mounting bracket holding up the engine.  The 3 bracket are roller which is very robust and rugged.

 

Suggest you check visually the 4 brackets for breakage and change accordingly.

 

 

For my carens, I change the dampener I bought online - USD 205 and go JB CenturyAuto to change.  I tot I paid for labour RM150~200 to change all 4 in 2014 ?? The dampener cost USD 56.5

 

It turn out the 3 brackets is in very OK condition. Could have save on the part USD140 and labour cost.

 

 

Without the dampener, the vibration is quite bad.  I think the wiring and hose connecting body and engine may break lor, over long term.

One of the sponsors here quoted me $600 for parts & labour to change engine mounting for Honda Jazz, market rate or not, I find it quite exorbitant! Did some groundwork and these are what I paid for:

 

Engine mounting (S$160.50) from Tanly at waterloo street
Labour (RM170 = S$58.31) JB workshop

Total around $220

It's not fair to compare Singapore labour cost to malaysia labour cost and say people carrot you.

 

Not wrong to go JB for repair though.

Definitely, I understand workshops in sg have higher overheads, but nothing in my reply mentioned anything about making a Robert out of he who chooses to patronize local workshops.

 

The word I used was "exorbitant", which was in comparison to JB workshops.

Relax. Maybe I shouldn't use the word carrot.

Just saying it's not Apple to Apple.

U ownself buy parts SG and goto JB. I recommend Century Auto, just outside Woodlands CP - Near York Hotel.

 

They may even give you are free oil change if you ownself bring EO+Filter.

 

 

Please take note that  all/almost all new goods entering Malaysia  are subjected to custom excise duty.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mayb will look see at toh guan ws. For msian ws, is it easily to get part of stream EM? Any msian ws to recomend? Thnks guys!
