Hyundai Avante 1.6A Maintenance Cost

[Sethi]

hi there,

does anyone know normally once in how long we need to change dry cell battery for hyundai avante?

recently i brought resale hyundai avante S 2009 model which has the battery replaced in year 2011.. :-)

Mine last quite a long time nearly 2yrs+. Low maintenance + FC quite OK lah.

 

If change last year, check when date change then maybe you just add 2 yrs. Also, depends pretty much on your usage style cos i always switch off aircon & audio power before switch off engine for better usage.

 

PS. Usually if change at workshop they will indicate on the battery date replaced.

You can try Spark Car Care (used to be Comfort Delgro Engineering), authorized workshop for Hyundai though the prices are only marginally cheaper than Komoco.

 

Alternatively, you can try AutoSaver. Their prices are much reasonable and also uses Hyundai original parts too.

Thanks for sharing, Bro.

 

My White Avante 1.6L Auto car needs servcing soon. I haven't reached 100K yet. But the warranty cover is either 100Km or 3years.

Might not go back Komoco. Too expensive. Will go outside authorised servcie provide.

You can also try AOTO. Their mechanics used to work at Komoco before and specialized in Hyundai cars too.

Don't have to change the whole alternator. Just replace the carbon bushings inside will do...

[Plow2001]

can recommend mechanic shop that do this? and how much is that?

[Ltmaverick]

Bro..i suggest you get the parts at Ming Ee at kallang pudding road...it cost not more them 100 buck and get a mechanic to fix for ya..It takes about 1/2 to 1 hrs

o get i t fix.

[Ltmaverick]

Seriously all minor parts are DIY and the parts I'll get it at Ming Ee...Worst it maybe the coiling that burnt out..then changing the carbon wont help..best to get it replace whole parts...
