no pictures.

my friend and I were supposed to go for futsal today, and we left college around the same time.

he didn't come after about 30 minutes and we were wondering where he went. so another friend called him up and asked where was he, only for us to discover that his half his engine mounting broke.

the story was, he was just on the way out from college, and he heard something in his car crash. so he went to the nearest workshop and asked the mechanic to inspect. opened up the hood and discovered that his engine was tilted. upon further inspection by the mechanic, it was discovered that part of the engine mounting broke.

Proton, Proton.

in referral to my post yesterday about my friend's car:

yeah I checked mine too just in case.. scary.

his car is about 7 months old (one of the first to get it) and mileage is less than 10k km I think. Coz he got it extremely fast due to a contact, the car came with numerous defects as well. Even the key doesn't have the Proton emblem.

mine's first batch too. number 686 of the first 1000, in fact. got it through a contact.

so far *touch wood* no problems, except for puny reverse sensor, which Proton admitted was their fault.

haha my FC is still a little bit on the high side.

after 7 months mileage tak sampai 4.5k km pun.

blame it on having to brace the jam to and fro SyUC almost every day, and the occasional trips to PJ (the only time my car gets to rack up some real mileage).

yups, A Levels.

can easily distinguish my car from the other Neos there, apart from the double digit plate, can see a nice dent at my driver's door.

Long story.

oh shi-

ah shit, my neo leaking engine oil already only after 7 months!

no, I didn't bang anything. today my dad's driver was driving it, suddenly he said where he parked got oil leaking out.. so we tried it at home.. after parking it for awhile, we moved it.. really got oil there.

I don't think it is a botched oil filter, since my car last went for its service in august.

sending it to my family mechanic tomorrow to diagnose, and then sending it to EON.

yeah I will.. I'll send it to my family mechanic tomorrow before sending it to EON.

due to passenger abuse, my passenger door is a little loose and is now starting to rattle.

people always think that the door is light, but actually the door is heavy, and doesn't require much force to close it. i always cringe when people 'slam' the door close. now rattle already

touch wood

I tightened whatever screws I could. just hope that the rattling is at least minimized.

must tell people to be gentle on my door already. so sad lahh.
