Bros, I am afraid I won't help you, if you don't trust your technician you should not had taken your car to him.
If you wanna cross check the prices, I believe you know where Spare parts sellers are plying their trades in PH, feel free to go inquire.

Cheers!

Before you start your car in the morning, open the bonnet and watch the level of the power steering fluid and condition of the PS pump belt if your car has one make sure it is tort and no slack or leaks, it is a simple problem since it only happens with cold engine
Re: Ask Kingreign by bdon123(m): 10:11am On Dec 29, 2017
i checked and found out the steering pump belt is slack,fluid level doesnt drop and is currently ok

Ask your technician to tighten the slack in the belt. If the belt is still slack, he should check the size of the belt and use an appropriate size.
