    Had the car fixed already. *whew* But wow.... costly! Is it really that expensive to have these replaced and repaired?! Haha. Hope to hear your thoughts.

    Here were the replacements:
    gasket
    top cover of the radiator
    upper hose
    clamps
    reservoir tank (of coolant)
    overflow hose

    plus labor - P1612.80
    3L coolant - P1050
    distilled water - P85

    Working hours were until 5pm only, but we opted to just wait so we got the car after 2 hours...


    Everything was about 9.6k!!!!


    Everything's okay now. But I was just wondering if the repair was a rip-off?

    A bit steep for your car's model and make. You should have purchased a new radiator and have it replaced.

    I hope they at least warrant their work.
