As mentioned in my earlier post, 4.5k should be the market price for Sachs OEM Msports

Oh really? item no.1 is cheap at that price? this is from puchong dealer but according to him he only has a pair of front absorbers currently.The rear one should be available in January.
What is current market price for that? Do you know?

Can E90 LCI in stock condition to replace DIN100 battery. The mech have done the registry and say it is OK. Basically telling the car that is now equipped with a new and higher MAH battery. Is that so?

Guys, i need your help plz.
i upgraded from E46 to 2005 E90 320i.

My aircon is having a problem now and not cooling unless if i am driving and not if i stop at a traffic light or jam.

Any good Aircon shop?

i suspect the cooling coil is leaking. Any idea of the aircon part prices, including compressor ...etc?

thanks

Could be compressor. Can try Naidu at Jalan Gasing

Thank you for the suggestion. I heard that Naidu is over priced.

Get a diagnostic & a quote before proceed with repairs/replacement. Otherwise Alan of Shell TTDI is a good option too.

Just got the quote from Naidu, he said the cooling coil problem, cost RM2200 for original (1year waranty), RM 1700 for another type (3 months waranty)

However, i went to another shop just under sunway flyover, he said the compressor not enough pressure!

I dont want to change one part, then the issue turns out to be from another part. waste of money

 

[Nmr Nik Soh]

sorry Bro Danze90...error typos, I mean both the left and right sides of the wheel or one side only..

Hi Guys, there is a weird whistling sound coming from the engine bay (e90 320i 2005) and it increases with the RPM/acceleration. Any idea what this might be?

its annoying

Thanks

M-sport suspension mounting (front) RM95 x 2. Lemforder brand. Normal one would have cost RM78 x 2. Got this from Bav Auto.

Effect: suspension feels tighter and well cushioned, steering feel also much better now. The earlier popping noise upon hitting irregular roads is now gone.

So you only changed the mountings and not the shocks? Any sign of mounting failure?
