Million thanks to Kelvin

[ckmckm]

Just went to Kelvin's workshop in the morning. I would like to thank Kelvin and his workshop specialists for helping me check the drum brake knocking sound. So far so good, hope that the problem won't come back.

I also went today for my 80,000km servicing. Pricing is reasonable and only recommend to change or replace parts if really necessary.
Checking is thorough and they really dont mind me asking questions whenever I have any doubt.

cool
all thanks to Kelvin and his team

hi ckmckm, is your 'drum brake knocking sound' comes on when you drive off after parking it for a long while ? Lately, my ride encounter this issue too.  Any parts changed by kelvin ? i intend to go to his workshop tomorrow. thanks

[ckmckm]

Yes, the "Got Got" sound was heard when I moved off after parking over the night.
Sometime, I can hear it after driving for an hour.

Previously, I went back to Tan Chong Ubi and they changed my brake cylinder because it was leaking but the sound came back after one month.

I went to Kelvin's workshop yesterday and he checked the drum brake for me.
He said the tension on both drum brakes were different so he adjusted the tension so that both are the same.
At the same time, he greased the moving part.

After the servicing, I can feel the brake response better when I stepped on the pedal.
So far, I didn't hear any more sound coming from the drum brake.

Kelvin didn't change any part, he just service the drum brake.

Think you should give Kelvin a ring and he will be happy to help you.

Double  for Kelvin and his team.

to kelvin,

regarding the greasing part, i wonder whether it will solve the high pitch metalic sound coming from my brakes only when reversing.

normally high pitch noise need to service all brakes.

Hi Kelvin,

May i know how much you quoted for brand new air con compressor? Does it comes with any warranty?

THanks..

[ckmckm]

bro kelvin, after you adjusted my drum brake, the braking feeling damn good now. very long time didn't feel so shiok.

There's no more sound from the drum brake and I can feel that the brake more effective now. should have come and look for you earlier.

Hi, i have a knocking sound when i applied my brakes when the car is slowing down. Any advice on whether it is due to brake drum problems?

Yes,it's the rear drum brake that is causing the noise.

[redsfan79]

Hi, can i find out from you how much it cost to rectify the problem? My car is approaching 97,000 km and i would like to do the servicing at your side too.

Brought my black latio to Kelvin for servicing yest, spend quite a bit due to changing of some damaged parts.

Had some problem finding the workshop as cannot find the name on any signboard, you have to look out for the exact unit number.

Kelvin and Teo were very meticulous in checking my car and even spend time explaining it to me what happen to my car from the previous servicing. It was good service received and the car feels very good after servicing, driving was smooth and car was responsive. There is no knocking sound yet from the brakes but i will continue to monitor.
