Servitek Timog - Legal Robbery

[jacorb_88]

Had my ride checked at Servitek Timog. Here's the diagnosis and quotation I got:

Diagnosis - Replacement of upper ball joint

Labor - 1,500
Part/s - upper ball joint (2) - 5,200 (original)

Mitsubishi Fairview quoted me 1,600 (approx) for each upper ball joint which makes the total just merely 3,200 (approx). That's a whooping 2k difference .

Bought 555 Japan from Mit-Parts Banawe for 1,100 (2) and had it replaced from friendly neighbor mechanic for 300

Savings on Labor = 1,200
Savings on Parts = 4,100

To Servitek Timog, shape up!!!

I guess standard yata kasi ang labor sa lahat ng Servitek, they have their list of items of various jobs and the corresponding amount.

But for the parts . . . am not sure on where they get their suppliers.

sa mga ganitong klaseng shop mahal ang labor kasi per part ang usapan sa isang gulong habang dumadami ang papalitan siyempre tataas ang labor cost, pero sa pagkakaintindi ko sa cruven or zee fix ito per wheel at 350pesos.
