Normally when u ask how much to replace cooling coil. The quote u get from outside ws will include the parts and labour together. With ad , u need to ask in details. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace cooling coil at ad. 2700😂😂😂😂🤩 At least that one cums with 12 mth warranty...if spoil again can replace the part for free...i tink have to pay for labour tho...outside shops cheaper by quite a lot but only 3 mths...😂 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atrecord Supersonic May 23 Share May 23 On 5/21/2024 at 4:18 PM, Fcw75 said: It’s ok to compare prices, you are paying leh. Thanks for your encouragement. I eventually decided call AD, who quoted me just a bit higher than L&Kim, but said need 4 days! Then since i started, called Tomika and Edwin too. Tomika was significantly cheaper, but said play safe put car overnight, but will try to finish in same day. Edwin's price even cheaper, but encouraged me to change the condenser together, saying for my car model, usually cooling coil and condenser will spoil around same time (while compressor is fine). And Edwin said can complete job in 4 hr! So this afternoon went to Edwin to get it done. Only flip side is that warranty is only 3 mth... hope it will not be required, and this can last me 4.5 yr... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atonchia Supersonic May 28 Share May 28 Now my turn to get not so cool aircon. Just service my car in mid March and also top up coolant.... Then Saturday the aircon especially passenger side not so cooling... previous time also passenger side warmer than my side, not sure if it's dual climate sensor issue or pertinent to this car make. So went to check coolant pressure and top up gas again.... then it works.... The workshop boss said I had change compressor about 2 years ago and compressor still working fine, mainly due to coolant pressure drop. Only this time round was shorter, only 2 months ago... previous round before the coolant pressure drop was around 6 months... But the dashboard no low coolant pressure warning light.... He said probably evaporator coil leak, should change..... Need a few days to do that bcos cooling coil is right behind dashboard..... Quite labour intensive to do it..... I went to Google... apparently it was very common to my car and topping up coolant works just fine. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

L&Kim need 1 day, and Tomika said will try 1 day, but play safe tell me prepare to leave car overnight. Then Edwin said 4 hr can already... in the end they finished it in 3 hr (and it was including replacing cooling coil and condenser)... when i tried to ask for discount, they replied to say price is competitive, familiar with the work, plus 'downtime shortest in SG'... So if you really in the end need to do something, can consider Edwin if downtime is a key consideration... as it was for me... 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left the car in the afternoon , next day afternoon job done. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
