It’s so sweet indeed!
I brought Emmo, aka ‘the car‘ (my son calls the car Emmo, turo ni daddy) for the first time in Mazda Greenhills to have the brake clip/spring brake replaced. The banging noise has become so unbearable that I had to do something about it to have it fixed.
Finally today, March 16 (that’s a scheduled appointment, called them up last week, Wednesday) I was able to go there and had the spring replaced.
It took 4 hours(?)… that’s the overall time spent in the Mazda casa. The damage? It costs me P2,090. That including the spring set and the 1 hour labor cost of P650. That may be a lot, but I say it worth it… Now, I no longer hear that bugging noise every time Emmo run over a rough part of the road.
I would like to thanks James of Mazda Greenhills for taking care of Emmo and myself.. the whole experience was fine… He checked the car thoroughly. He advised to have the suspension replaced, I told him sure, on the next appointment… well I will be having the 80,000 km checkup real soon anyway.
Again, thanks alot!
Here are some shots of the replaced spring… as if you’re interested and all…
