Who Can You Trust? A Singaporean's Guide to Choosing a Car Workshop in Malaysia | MyMechanic
Reading the Signs: What a Good Workshop Looks Like
Look for PIAM Approval: The Insurance Seal of Trust
Just Look Around: A Tidy Shop Often Means Tidy Work
Is it Organized? Are tools put away neatly and are the work areas clear? A chaotic workshop often leads to chaotic, careless work.
Do They Have Modern Gear? Look for modern computer diagnostic scanners and other up-to-date equipment. It shows they’ve invested in working on today’s cars, not just old ones.
Do They Have a Specialty? Does the workshop seem to be full of cars like yours (e.g., mostly German cars, or mostly Japanese cars)? A workshop that specializes in your car's brand is always a good sign.
Before You Say Yes: Questions You Must Ask
Before you give them the green light to even touch your car, ask these simple questions:
"Have you worked on this specific model of car before?"
"Can you give me a detailed, written quote before you start any work?"
"What kind of warranty do you offer on your repairs and the parts you use?"
"What are my payment options? Can I pay by card?"
