Hi, just for sharing..

Am driving Altis, realized one of my front wheels has `wong wong' sound, went to my office

nearby 2 stockists to check wheel bearing...quoted $38 NSK bearing (available only next monday),

$35 for Naichi bearing (Made in Japan). Bought Naichi lor.

 

Both the above 2 stockists are located next to each other, so price quoted is rather competitive;

no worry of being `chop carrot-head'. Their location is blk 20 Woodlands East Ind estate.

tel are 67562321 & 67592292 respectively. Do check it out ourselves for other makes...

 

Hope the above info help.

Almost all car shop work more than 8 hrs full day everyday and on saturday except AD, and this has in a way discourage many young people from jointing this trade.

If any shop wants to operate on Sunday, I believe the only person working will be the boss himself unless he is willing to compensate the mechanic with double pay and with many goodwills. So the extra costs of operation will be passed to the car owners in the from of higher charges. In short any form of convenient is cost and therefore somebody will have to pay for it. In reality there is no free lunch !! You just have to find the time or pay for it.

Hi all, need your opinions.

Humming noise from the front passenger side, suspect is wheel bearing. 

 

I got a quote from WS, $160 include labor. 

 

Subaru Impreza 2008 model. Is it worth changing coz left with 10mths left?

 

Thank You

I would say change. You wont be able to tahan the noise for 10 months, and it does get worse. 

 

In addition, not sure what else in your car may be affected by the expiring wheel bearings.

[Optramagnum]

Change lah.. Divide by 10mths,only $16 a month.. Bad bearing will cause uneven wear of tyre and slight increase in FC..

sorry to off track abit as I cant post a question until I hit 10 post.

When every sharp turn or cornering, I can hear a sound coming from the car...something like a whoooo sound.....not loud but can hear type.

I'm wonder if it is the wheel bearing coz when I brought to car workshop they say vehicle off balance so I sent in for balancing but the sound is still there. Especially when turning right. Anyone has any past experience on such? Vehicle is only about 2 years old.

ATTENTION TO ALL CAR OWNERS!!!

BEWARE of 2277 BRANDZ workshop!!!

 

The staff is abit cocky right from the start.

Also tried to price high for my car parts to replace. I compared it with other workshop and I was shocked to found out that it was 100%+ higher priced. I was told to go for the other workshop by the staff when I try negotiated for a fairer price. I was so disappointed by their service and will not go back anymore. Not in my lifetime!
