[QUOTE="romeo_v12, post: 4077, member: 319"] People,As my car approached 100k kmh last december I got a little paranoid with the gbox and asked my machanic to flush out the ATF and the filter as well as the rear axle oil. It was very smooth with swift changes. Last month I went in for my regular service during CNY and Inspection II was done however petrol filter and 1 pcs power steering hose that was leaking was not changed as all part shops were closed.Yesterday, my super intelligent mechanic changed the 2 above parts and foolishly also changed the ATF oil, filter and axle oil AGAIN!! He could have easily checked my oil bill but with his "bawah pokok" shop with no specific filing system, he seemed to have missed it out. His response was "I did Inspection II"Firstly, would any of you pay for this unneccessary work(RM450 all in) or may be part of it to compensate himSecondly, any adverse effects of changing ATF oil twice in 2 monthsFor the record, he minused the RM150 workmanship charge but was insisting on balance RM300. ( I didnt pay him that either but a lesser amount)Looks like I have to write down everything and manage him too.Happen to anyone before??CheersRomeo [/QUOTE]
