Message: <blockquote data-quote="xcheong" data-source="post: 1652845" data-attributes="member: 2260">This incident happens to me yesterday evening.my car having problem starting up since the day before yesterday.i've change to a new battery, and it works well until yesterday, the car broke down in front of traffic light around jalan universiti.after waited there for 30 minutes, got 2 indian guy claimed themself is a foreman, and come to offer some help.they push my car beside the road so not to block the traffic.i just ask them to help me jump start my car and i'll pay some money if they will do that for me.but they REFUSE to jump start, and within minutes, they tell me my alternator kong already.and tell me they can fix it in 45 minutes and RM80 will finish the job.Ok, i think sounds like a good deal, i gave them the job, and the "mechanic" guranteed me if my car cannot start, no CHARGE will incured!.ok fine, they took my battery to recharge, then came back with the battery.then my car can start already, then this idiot plug off the possitive terminal to show me that the alternator is not running. As the engine died immediately after the possible terminal unpluged.they done this many times till the battery is week, and i cannot start my car anymore.In the last resort, i gave in and let them fix my alternator. I don't wanna let them fix but my favourite mechanic is not free, and no one seems to be able to help me, and its getting late.so i let them to fix, the alternator, they took my alternator, then left. 1 hour 30 minutes later they came back wif a "fixed" alternator they claim.after installing the alternator, my car able to start again.which is suppose to be a good news.i happily give my RM80 to that guy, but he show me a receipt of RM285 !!to my horror, RM80 ---> RM280 is very big amount.they claim the alternator they get is new one, my one cannot be use fixed anymore.then they tell me new alternator cost RM600+, this one they get from chop shop for RM280....bloody hell, as if i dunno how much of a chop shop alternator cost. I always jalan kedai potong and a used 4g93 alternator only cost RM40!! so RM240 is for their motorbike petrol arr?? can go around malaysia already!that's not it, they demand RM150 more for WORKMANSHIP.that totals to RM435...they somemore so cool, telling me give me RM15 discount!!! which ends up RM420...i'm damn pissed, i called up my Relatives to come settle the case. before they come, my engine die again, and cannot start!!now they tell me its the alternator TAK KUAT. need charging!As if i dunno how alternator works.... if the alternator is OK, it will CHARGE itself.it doesn't need charging. only battery need charging. since battery is charge, wat else could go wrong other than another faulty alternator.there goes an endless argument.after my relatives arrive, they seems to scared abit.all their fierce shouting to me and those lansi face suddently gone.After a long argument, they willing to settle at Rm200 if my car can jump start.or else no charge.bloody fuck, of cuz my car can jump start.battery is new wat.after they took the money, left the scene, not even 5 minutes, the engine die again.it clearly shows that the alternator not working at all!!Then, i source help from my own mechanic, get a tow truck, and tow back to his workshop. and my car just fixed today wif good condition used alternator for only RM140 include workmanship.So guys, bewary of any "nice" stranger that offer help to your broke down car.I pay Rm200 nvm, i learn my lesson. i'm such a fool for not being calm...After i told this story for a few frens. one of my fren mother also kena con at around federal highway before. and the con man is also Indian.In fact, not only indians, there are many chinese, and also malay con man. some even foreigners. con man is all around us. disregard the color of their skin.thanx for your time reading this.</blockquote>
