Meaning the mounting not properly installed?

Or not align in the correct way? think have to check with him again...

 

saw the mechanin change and tighten each and every one of the mounting one-by-one...

 

thought it should be fit in all but not tighten all first, after all being fit in then tighten slowly one-by-one ?

 

just like how we screw in the tyre/rim....

i suggest you buy your own parts and ask ws to fix for you...much much cheaper...

i just got my parts from connald at tagore lane...for $190+GST for 4pcs mounts.

 

labour cost of the ws recommended by connald is about $95...byw, mine is altis, so I don't think mitsu lancer will be much different.

 

Bro...

 

thanks for your advice...

 

I really save alot...

 

Some WS quoted $600 -$700 to change all 4 engine mounting of Yr'05 Altis..lucky didnt kena [knife]

Usually i think those ws earn on labour fee, they would charge at least $200 to change parts.

Hi guys, I'm a newbie and new to MCF, can't start my own T, hope you guys can help and give me some advise, much appreciated.

 

My ride is a 4yr old Mit Colt Plus, done 100K mileage. Have been experiencing a lot of vibrations as of late. At first mechanic says it was throttle body dirty, had it cleaned, but vibrations still there, so say got to change engine mounts.

 

I checked with some workshops and was quoted S$600-800 for parts and labour. Think its very ex [sweatdrop] after reading the cost paid by some bros here.

 

Can any kind bro recommend me a workshop to get the job done? Or where can i go to buy Mitsubishi Parts myself? Don't wanna kenna chop [laugh]

 

Many Thanks. :D

thanks for the advise :D ,

 

I'm amazed at how much workshops earn from the parts they charge.. big diff, managed to save quite a bit.

 

some workshop boss can even afford to driver a lexux is250. in time to come, it could be a masserati.

Because many drivers are lazy to go stockist to get the parts themselves, so of cos the workshop will make use of this to cut your carrots... Somemore how many actually go find out how much stockist selling the parts?
