My car had got the water leaking problem. Spent about $700 to change all the head gasket (1st and 2nd), flush radiator, change radiator cap and the probnlem still not solve.

 

He claim that he is very experience in repairing car engine but this small problem he can solve.

 

Who got any workshop to recoomand pls advice.

[Othello]

hmmmm ......... looks like he never diagnose problem correctly ..... but why are you looking for another workshop?? should ask bug him until your prob is solved, since you paid liao .........

 

I dun have a regular workshop since I started driving 8 years ago. But you can try the bigger workshops like CAS or STAR .....

[Mlksh]

i did and the othwer workshop is for further repair and servicing. I do not intended to pay him the outstanding amt own to him.

For that kind of money. I would have insisted that he changed everything inclusive of the radiator, hoses, gasket anything associated with the coolant system.

If there's still a water leaking problem which you can't see from the outside, then usually it's the head gasket. But if after fixing the head gasket water's still leaking.....then it's a bit strange.

 

Coz if water's leaking from radiator, you'll see stains on the fins. If water's leaking from water pump, you should see stains also. If from hoses, of course you'll see stains also....hmm.....

 

How fast is the water leaking? Do you see white smoke at exhaust?

 

[Genie47]

That is why for all the money spent, might as well throw out the whole coolant system and install refurbished or new coolant system parts.

ya thats true....radiator is not too expensive (at least for the ones I bought). Only about $100+ Not the original but OEM one. (Brand was BEHR). Not Chionged (imitation) type.

[Kianbeng]

For $700, did he do anything to the cylinder head? If it's just changing the head gaskets, then wow, it's expensive man.

 

When I rebuild my cylinder head last time for the old car, it was damm expensive man. Paid $1K or so, ($800 for a 2nd hand head, $200 for machining + labour) but it was a good job done coz it was a very tedious job. I was standing there watching them do it for 2 days. (Last time lobo mah )
