    yup my matrix started making a funny noise one day and the next it just didn´t want to go faster then the old beaten taxi´s. So a few days overnight in the fort and now they finally know what is wrong.

    But i´m not sure I should go with what they say is wrong. They want me to replace the turbo charger 60k

    and also they give me 3 things i need to pay for regarding my aircon. how can 3 things pile up at the same time????? another 23k

    Do you guys know any good autoshops around metro manila how can service a car better then Hyundai? got to be hornest and say that i have meet better mechanics.

    Please let me know asap as i need my car back


    Thanks

    There are repair kits for turbos. Cheaper than getting new turbos.

    Generally stocks turbos fail due to either in the oil seals and/or wear in the turbo-bearings/sleeves.
