This blog has been viewed by 106 visitor(s) I think less than a month ago, I went for my regular service on my car. My car has been making some noise every once in a while when I go down the PLUS... Rattle Rattle... The first time I heard this one the mechanics found out it was the body kit skirting... some kind of fitting or CLIP came loose. Ah.. that happen like a couple to 3 years back after some damn Lorry left some tyre piece on the PLUS... That probably done the damage. That time stil under warranty.. OK fixed beres...
NOW, it's back.. So I ask the Kerani bitch at Vivahill to check for that noise... I say happen b4 I got it fixed there also. ... As I waited at the service center playing Crysis (tat time not yet finish the game ma).. She came and tell me .. BEARING ROSAK.. i was like WTF?!! sure or not? At that time I thought I sought second opinion... then after some advicement from friends and family.. OK la better get it fixed... But I shudda went out into the work floor and see for sure.. >> PLONK... close to RM400 for the bolas... .... OK if it stops the noise fine la.. Go down KL lagi... RATTLE RATTLE RATTLE..... =__= BALLS!!! So I went to ask a cousin of my wife who was a mechanic who told me, usually there is NO WAY to check if your bearings rosak or not except from sound... and when ppl complain noise from the wheels it's the bearings... .. So I suspected those Vivahill guys just SIMPLY change and swindled me RM400 just like that.. Sakitnya dompet I... and this cousin-in-law of mine told me there are other noises coming from my car.. could be tyre botak hingga besi wor.. but din delve too much on it... but this will come back and bite me... read on...
So back in Penang, Went back there livid ... and ask the kerani to bring out the mechanic fast ... I demanded.. ok la.. drove the mechanic out to reach 120KPH... Mader.. when u try to show them... the rattle takda... Sigh.. so they go and check what actually got changed during the first time. Some kind of SEAT BELT CLIP? WTF? so he took out myseatbelt assembly to look see. nothing also. Tighten tighten, ok... "come back if got problem"... sigh... since no rattle can be demonstrated.. OK la.. balik...
Another trip down the PLUS... RATTLE RATTLE.. sigh... then just before I got ready to drive back, I thought I check it myself and see wtf is loose there.. kick kick.. EH... LONGGAR Skirting tepi neh.... Mader.. How did the mechanic not see it... So I take a look see lagi close up.. memang something missing.. ... the pemasangan of the skirting was slapping the bottom of the car... rattle rattle when go fast la... ... RM400 and this thing not fix.. t =_= t
Go back .... just today... to SPECIFICly say, NI missing pin.. STILL noise... mader u farkers din do job properly .. swindled me...
So I waited there watching Shoalin Soccer... one melayoo mechanic say it's the Tyres la boss.. WTF? Go out... shit.. that cousin-in-law was right.. BOTAK hingga besi... Mut was a witness. (not on the spot la) shit.. After the BOLA besi fiasco.. I m not letting those HONDA guys sakit my dompet again.. i let mut rekomen someone else to stab my wallet... :p
Sigh... SO... now, I got new treads.. 4 bijis... well, Michelin Energy XM1 wor...I hope the boss lady dun con me my free RM40 free TnG card +_+
