$1200 to change Cooling Coil & Condenser. It is too ex??

[Pisces69]

In my opinion, u should check the air con hoses whether there's any leaks first. I know that for most cars, for the air con, there's 2 hoses .. High pressure and low pressure hoses..

 

I drive a fiat bravo, what happens was, my air con, was left side cold but right side warm. Went to a workshop to check, diagnose cooling coil issues , need to strip whole instrument cluster, to get to it.. Quoted $500 to $800..

 

Went to a freelance air con mechanic at the relocated Singapore badminton hall, the uncle was nice to troubleshot for me ASAP. He found green residue on my pipe and point to me that its air con pipe , need to change. The cooling coil is ok.

 

Cut the story short, changed to a Oem Air con hose due to original air con hose cost $500, excluding installation charges...

 

I think you should look for a few workshop who specialize in air con before deciding to change relevant parts as there may be mis diagnose.. I do not mind paying for it, if it solve the issue, but After paying for it, the problem persist.. I will be very unhappy..haha.. By the way, the strip the instrument cluster may take one to 2 days.. Do take note of the down time.. All the best .. :)

 

 

And even worse than mis-diagnose is the AC mech anyhow say yr cooling coil spoil n need to replace n take out whole dashboard.

 

Once u agree, ty just change some AirCon hose, which is a simple 2-3 hr job n ty charge u for the much more expensive parts n job.

 

How u know what ty do when u leave. These r the many dishonest workshops in Spore. Only out to cheat pple.
