Hari Sabtu... Dedicated to my G.n.2 the Panthera!

Another weekend, another post!

Xtau nak cite ape.Actually so many things happened over the whole week tapi because of one lousy day, lemau plak nak cite.

Maybe aku leh share pasal keta aku. Heheh. My panther in trouble. Huaaa. Things started a week ago when suddenly starting the engine got a bit weird. The moment i tried to jump-start a car after long parking after work or when going to work, the alarm went off once or twice depending on how long the engine got started. I suspected must be battery problem. So off semua segala jadah yang guna pakai amp and the problem resolved. But things gotten worse. Even brief parking pon made the car very hard to start. So decide baik tukar batery. Actually battery tu memang dah lama. Datang dari kilang proton gik. Lifespan dah exactly 3 tahun which is rare coz mostly after one or two years dah kong.My brother's Civic batery pon dah osak only after leaving it for 4 days time dia oversea g Taiwan. Xleh start keta dia.

So today decided to go to workshop tuk tukar batery. Before that i grabbed any information as i could get coz let's face it. Apek2 workshop ni kalo tak nipu tak sah. My brother(taiko keta) said batery tu leh cas gik and also said the engine or belt sounded a little loud.Summore rosak. He said biasalah since keta nak sampai 65000 kena tukar byk bende. Hmmm. Calar balar and wing tercabut angkara my ex tu pon aku x wat agi. Inikan lagi tambah maintainance. Betul kata bapak aku. Once owning a car, duit kua manyak. Huhu. Unless to some people( girls mostly) yang bende2 tu sumenya bapak yang wat. Servis bodoh tu pon bapak yang buat. HAhah.

SO went to first workshop, tanya ade charger or not. Kata tadak and said baik tukar terus. Then g workshop kedua. By this time nak start keta dah payah betul dah. Memang nak depleted sungguh ni since start keta took about 3/4 attempts. So decide to settle at the second workshop. Sama cina. Kompom kena pancung gak. Batery kena 250(280 minus 3o for batery lama). Rasa macam could get lower. Tukar gak spring pintu isi petrol( xleh bukak tapi xde mslh pon selama ni suh bangla petronas tlg bukak) for rm10. Aku rasa spring tu 3 ringgit jek tapi dia cas aku 15 ringgit. So aku haggle to rm10.Kasi dia untung sikit. Halal ler walaupon dia pancung gila2 coz aku dah malas pikir dah nak carik bengkel lain.Lagipun bengkel dia byk sparepart so kira bagusla tu. Dia check bunyik keta aku gak. Katanya belt punya roda nak dekat pecah( setara dengan umor kereta) and my bearing alternator bunyik( x sure about this and need to read more). Mmm.. Yang tu eloklah wat later jek since x kacau lagi keta berjalan. And this coming January plak kena klua 700 plak for insurans kereta. Aiyo.

Duit,duit,duit...Dari dulu sampai sekarang asek g ke keta je. Dengan previous owner yang x reti jaga keta(abg aku sorg tu mcm x concern psl keta,sorang lagi tu jenis pakai lunyai and jenis malas nak tukaq) Aku plak jenis yang very concern about safety and very sayang ngan keta so i dont mind klua duit kat keta walaupon you would hearing grunt from me time to time. Biasalah tu. Tapi still sayang my pantera!! :) Tapi pikir nasib baik abang aku dah bagi pinjam keta saga dia kat bapak aku. The initial plan was for me to loan my car to my dad. Tapi eloklah saga tu. Gen2 ni pakai minyak lebih sikit plus maintainance tinggi. Kesian lak bapak kena bear all those rising cost.

Current mood: Feels like a fifth wheel :(
