Chevy's SERVICE & Maintenance by MARIO

**misterj68** · January 17th, 2012 10:44 PM

the warranty of my 2008 optra 1.6LS matic will expire this feb. i am looking for an alternative mechanics to bring it to. the recommendation for mario seems good.

quick question: the battery warning and handbrake lights on the instrument panel keeps on popping (intermittent) on even when i am driving. i am sure that the handbrake is not engaged and my battery is new. what could be the cause? thanks.

check your brake fluid level, it can trigger the handbrake light. but since its intermittent, it can be an electrical glitch. GM = get mechanic or grand malfunction

casa finally found the problem. the alternator is overcharging (whatever that means) so they just replaced the alternator. good thing i still had a month to go before the warranty expiration.

what i find with that follow-up style of Mario was that, pagnakita niya na medyo oldies na yung chevy mo, me mga other
possible trouble pa na maaring mangyari but not dun sa kagagawa niya, kundi sa ibang parte ng sasakyan. syempre, komo dating
taga chevy projected pa niya yung ibang pedeng masira o palitin base sa tinakbo ng kotse.

nga pala, yung compressor ang nagpamahal, nasa 13.5-14.5k ang bago nyan SANDEN brand ata yun. sa casa, yung stock na
sinasabi ng casa 24k more or less. eh pagnagpalit ng compressor baba lahat to check baka me leaks. tapos down din ang freon.
eh yung freon pag bago nasa 900p din. so pag sinuma mo, sa tingin mo mahal pa ba singil ni Mario?

Sir ok naman c sir mario pero medyo mahal din ang singil nila compared sa normal mechanic...
here is my advice if may problem sa car nyo and need some spare parts try to find a replacement mun like sa fuel pump you can use fp of nissan. if sa AC compressor you can use SANDEN compressor. but if wala makita wala talaga magagawa kung hindi punta kay mario (excelent service and reply agad) or kay mikehunter ( pero d ko cya makontact nung nagkaproblem ako) tapos pag d padin kaya go to casa na para sure...
FYI ung sanden aircompressor is only P3800.
e2 ung quote sakin ni arisluvmie from sulit. http://arisluvmie.**************/

may sarili silang shop... kayo nalang kumontact sa kanya...

"puede po sanden my bracket lng n kelangan 1500, ung sanden 3800, filter 1200, service 1500 with freon total 8000"

Hope nakatulong ako sa mga chev optra user...

*jetaime91
the sanden compressors at 3800 are converted. it is not the original compressor advisable for the optras.
kaya you need the conversion bracket likewise, etc...

I had Mario replace my Optra 1.6LS' motor oil, air filter, fuel filter, valve cover gasket, spark plugs, park light bulb, fog light bulb and high tension wires. His mechanic is ok. I suggest that you look over as well if he's not there because his mechanic has a tendency to screw back the part covers etc.

I plan on having my AC compressor changed by him as well. He can source for you OEM parts as well. His original compressor quote was cheaper than Thunder.
