The owner of this Honda Stream came in requesting for a brake pad change with feedback of noisy, and poor braking. When we took off the wheels and inspected the brakes, we were all in shock!

There was absolutely NO brake pad on one side. Previous workshop that was maintaining this vehicle failed to check the brake pads on this vehicle. The metal backing on the brake pad was grinding onto the rotor and totally worn off. There was just only a little more than a millimeter of material left on the rotor. And because of the lack of material, the brake piston over-extended and popped out of the caliper, leaking brake fluid everywhere. The car had close to no brake fluid left.

This, causes accidents.

It continues to worry us whenever new customers roll into our shop for our services and we find hazardous situations like this.
@ Auto 101 (Singapore), we take pride in what we do and are responsible for our services rendered to our customers.

 

We make sure every vehicle leaves our premises functioning optimally and safe for every customer and everyone else sharing the road.

The team acted promptly and repaired the brake caliper, flushed out all remaining brake fluid, replaced and bled all four calipers, and replaced the rotors and pads with our TRW Brake Combo.

Air Conditioning systems in a car bring great pleasure to drivers and passengers. Keeping the heat and humidity away and the passengers cool and dry. However, when one fails, it brings about adverse effects.

The evaporator (cooling coil) on this Toyota Vios was leaking harmful refrigerant into the cabin and because of the leak, the A/C is not working and all the windows would fog up during a rainy, humid day. Making driving a very hazardous affair.

In a car's A/C system, cold, low-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator. Warm air from the interior of the vehicle passes through the evaporator by action of the blower fan. The cooler refrigerant flowing inside the evaporator absorbs heat from the warm air.

 

At the same time, humidity in the air condenses on the cool evaporator’s surface, then eventually drips out of a drain tube to outside the vehicle. This is why you see water dripping underneath a car while the air conditioner is on.

So in a way, though indirectly, A/C systems not only keep you comfortable, they are a significant factor towards driving safety as well.

Working on a vehicle's A/C system is never an easy job but always one of the most satisfying. Maintaining an almost prone position with its rocker panel thrusting up onto your torso while removing and installing an evaporator is bound to leave you with sore ribs at the end of the day. But when all is done and the owner of this vehicle gave us a thumbs up exclaiming (in his own words) "美美啊！(very good!)" leaving with a big smile on his face, that's all we needed.

Problem solved on this meticulously maintained Honda Accord CP1 that came in with excessive vibrations during idle and chemical smells in the cabin; A/C Compressor and Evaporator replaced.
