[SIZE=3]Hi everyone![/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Just wanna share my experience here![/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]After I Fixed the A/T of 2003 Town&Country I got this idea that I should not trust everything they say.(dealers)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]The Reason is that when A/T of T&C started shift not like before I knew somthing is wrong with A/T, so I brought the van to the dealer in greenhills.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]After few hours I got the estimate showing that they have to overhaul a/t and change the TCU!(the figure was about 100k)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]I was thinking, How come? It's only 60+tkm now![/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]I wanted to have 2nd opinion,so I drove the van to Private american car specialty shop in katipunan.(believe me I found the shop in yelloe page)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]After having everything scanned, I was so happy to hear that my A/T is still fine except the TCU. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]New A/T oil&filter with fresh TCU will fix the problem![/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]I sourced out the repaired TUC in ebay.com for $200+!!! few days later the van drove just like before![/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Total damage was about 30k[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]30k vs 100k ?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Now I started to understand those friends telling me not to fix the car in dealers because they will fool you![/SIZE]

April 5th, 2008 09:36 AM #4I only visited CASA the during first 1000, 5000, and 10,000 kilometers of my car. After that, forget ko na sila. I don't believe also in warranty. Check those parts covered by warranty, those are the parts na hindi masisira sa first 3 years or 100,000 kilometers ng sasakyan.
