Mecânico excelente, honesto e diligente. O cabo da embreagem quebrou e dirigimos de Florianópolis até Paso de Los Libres (+1000km) porque o mecânico que conseguimos em Florianópolis queria cobrar 300 reais pela peça de reposição mais 300 reais pela instalação (e ele não garantiu que era esse o problema) parecia loucura para nós porque apesar de não ser um veículo comum no Brasil a peça de reposição na Argentina custa 1400 pesos (14 reais) + mão de obra. A única coisa que conseguimos encontrar foi em magazine luiza, mas a entrega estava atrasada e estávamos prestes a vencer os 3 meses de visto de turista, então tivemos que continuar sem embreagem até cruzarmos a fronteira.
Por fim, conseguimos encontrar o mecânico El Cordobes, que resolveu o problema, comprou a peça de reposição e a instalou no mesmo dia, além de nos fornecer o adaptador de gás argentino, tudo isso por 16.000 pesos (160 reais). Ele é muito honesto, diligente e os preços são acessíveis. O mais importante é que estávamos seguros e tranquilos na estrada. Altamente recomendado
Excellent, honest and diligent mechanic. The clutch cable broke and we drove from Florianopolis to Paso de Los Libres (+1000km) because the mechanic we got in Florianopolis wanted to charge 300 reais for the spare part plus 300 reais for the installation (and did not guarantee that this was the problem) it seemed crazy to us because although it is not a common vehicle in Brazil the spare part in Argentina costs 1400 pesos (14 reais) + labor. The only thing we could find was in magazine luiza but the shipment was delayed and we were about to fulfill the 3 months of tourist visa so we had to continue without clutch until we crossed the border.
Finally we got El Cordobes mechanic who solved the problem, bought the spare part and put it in the same day and also put the Argentinean gas adapter all for 16000 pesos (160 reais). He is very honest, diligent and the prices are affordable. The most important thing is that we were safe and relaxed on the road. Highly recommended
Excelente mecánico honesto y diligente. Se nos rompió el cable del ambrague y anduvimos desde florianopolis hasta Paso de Los Libres (+1000km) porque el mecánico que conseguimos en florianopolis quería cobrar 300 reales el repuesto más 300 reales la colocación (y no garantizaba que fuese ese el inconveniente) nos parecía una locura ya que si bien no es un vehículo común en Brasil el repuesto en Argentina sale 1400 pesos (14 reales) + mano de obra. Lo único que encontramos fue en las casas de magazine luiza pero demoraba el envío y se nos estaban por cumplir los 3 meses de visa turista así que tuvimos que seguir sin embrague hasta cruzar la frontera.
Finalmente conseguimos dar El Cordobes mecanico que nos resolvió el problema, compró el repuesto y lo coloco en el mismo día y además nos coloco el adaptador de gas Argentino todo por 16000 pesos (160 reales). Es muy honesto, diligente y los precios son accesibles. Lo más importante es que salimos andando seguros y tranquilos por la ruta. Recomenadisimo
Report Check-InWe were towed here after a oil hose came off in the middle of nowhere. I asked the tow guy to bring us here because of the last positive comment. It was sunday 6 oclock. And they immediately started to fix our car. An hour later we were on the road again for 15.000 pesos (37,5€). Son and father did a good job.
