What about brake pad, brake disc, stabilizer links, shock absorber, and CV joints? This info is not accurate. Do you hear a lot of your friends change their steering racks?

I have never changed the first 3 items. only replaced fuel pump, water pump and wheel bearings before

erm.. bro, it is not a local study leh..

 

 

just sharing nia..

Wow! Suspension arms the no.1 thing to fail? Did they list which car? Must avoid at all cost. From my past experience. I face leaking dampers, worn bushings but never suspension arm failure, not even for cars over 10yrs old.

 

OK, maybe its different place we are talking about. People in UK may like to go cross country often hence resulting in suspension arm failure.

The first three to happen in a 3 to 7 yrs car the road condition has be bad with lot of pot holes. Country like singapore which has quite good city drive shouldn't have a prob at all.

#1 on list = battery

#2 on list = aircon

#3 on list = brake

#4 on list = tyre

I don't think they would have considered non of the above except aircon due to their fast disposal. They would have considered only mechanical parts.

Like this is like saying that everything can be wear and tear parts other than the engine and gearbox.

Had engine mounting changed in civic fd once but battery change more than five times in four year period. Think regardless of wear n tear, battery nowadays is the first on my list to turn faulty

[Haru1987]

my car had engine mounting is loosen and that will cause steering to vibrate? my mechanic told me that i do not to replace it now, but how do i tell if i have to change it?

[Tleslie]

No.3 is expensive wor.......

 

yes, thats indeed expensive and hard to find too....

[Chpeck]

Wiper blades are the easiest to spoil, i changed mine once every 6 months. Not mentioned?
