Major Service at Vision Auto - Update

After my previous good experience with Vision Auto, I decided to bring it back there to have a major service this time, plus wheel alignment as well since I haven't done any wheel alignment for about a year.

The total cost this time is RM 1279.65, which covers engine oil change, automatic transmission oil change, automatic transmission gasket, automatic transmission filter, spark plug, wheel alignment, camber correction, camber bolt, wheel balancing, brake servicing, and snow wash plus vacuum. At first the guy told me that the spark plug will be about RM 200++, but since my Isis is a 1.8L engine, it costs RM 30++. The driving feels much better now after the service.

It's a good thing that I asked them to check the wheel alignment for me because I did notice that my front tyres are starting to wear out, which is quite alarming. I guess it has to do with the camber since they told me that it has to be corrected. They shifted the front tyres to back, and would advice me to change it on my next service, which I've already planning to do so.

Then, after I went back to work, I got a phone call from them saying that his mechanic forgot to inform him that my car battery has to be replaced for it's not in good condition anymore. So, I went this morning to get it replaced, and it costs me RM 260. The battery comes with 1 year warranty, so if there's any problem, I could still get it warranted.
