Wow is a bit way too much at 80k KM...If i were u, i already change at 70 ~75k range
Original should be better. If no more service and SC, can buy ownself and give a good outside workshop install...Cheaper than SC change
Timing belt is to be replaced at every 100k intervals. Usual recommendation would be 90k plus. Never had issues.
UNLESS, fake belts were used then it will break far sooner which happened to me once when i was driving my old civic at 180kmh at 4k rpm plus and it snapped on me while its belt was used only about 60k plus. A lot of counterfeit timing belts around be careful of this.
Original will stay on till its recommended replacement at every 100k interval. UNLESS, you are a track guy that red ines the car all the time then different story.

wah... your bad luck knows no stop
ermmm... impossible. Last year i went to kuching for almost a week and left my car. After got back, start my car like usual, and it started normally.
There are 3 things i personally think is possible:-
1. Battery given to you is perhaps an older aging unit.
2. Your car's alternator is not charging back enough.
3. Your battery's estimated life span is over. Usually its about 2 years or more. But heck, some cars like my ex myvi the battery only lasts almost 1 1/2 years.
