I second that. I did my 100 000Km service there and they found stuff that Nissan never bothered with (shock absorbers), they even showed me the inside of the air conditioning filter (filthy) I didn't get that done as I was buying new tyres also, next time.

If davureborn (aka Davu, etc.) says anything good about something, that is an event!   party4

Thank you so far for all the replies... Think first i'll have a look a Bquick, since that's the closest one to me...For me that's a first and a last Mazda in Buriram...i like the car and maybe other garages do better.  this one made me feel like they just did not know....Could've let them have a fourth go at it, but it seemed like that would not really matter....btw Brake cilinders, pads and head cilinder all replaced already so........my best guess is simple air....
Never had any problems with ABS before so don't really know if spongy brakes can relate to the ABS.

Thanks again..Any more usefull info always welcome..:)

Oh and just under 200 K so some maintenance is expected, but no results after several services gets frustrating a little....

For the ones still interested :) 

I've found a garage ( the 4th) that was able to do the simple job.
It was indeed like i thought en like suggested here, air in the system..a simple 10 min job, and it was great breaking again.
This shop looked like they know what to do unlike some others.  They do all the work on cars , up to complete engine revisions....so this is the one i'll keep trying.
Owner is there all day and knows his work.

It's called Duckhams....next to Taweekit supercentre on the right side ( just over the track next to an insurance office) There is no clear sign on it and it looks a bit roughed up, but they have all the equipment to do all the work and a lot better mechanics...

Finally......

thanks for the input everybody

Glad the job got done and thanks for the update. I am always happy to get a tip on a good and reliable place for car service in Buriram.
