Hi everyone!! Greetings from Melbourne
Hello!
I'm Mookie and I just moved here from Malaysia about 4 months ago and bought a 2003 manual Mazda Astina 323 last week from a car dealer in Ringwood. I'm really excited because this is my first car and I think I'll be here quite often to do some research on a reliable mechanic around my area and other stuff. Although I just bought this car, today my battery went flat and I couldn't get it to start, managed to drive home after getting it jump started but I guess I'll have to change the battery. Any idea how much that'll cost? All help and info is very much appreciated. Thank you in advance |

Welcome to AstinaGT, as for the battery should be under $100, make a few calls as prices will vary from store to store.

Welcome to AGT
if you're after a good mechanic, I'd recommend HS Motors in Ringwood North. I've used them a few times and they're good guys
