A little update. I sent my car to my personal mechanic, it's confirmed that they never change the engine or valve. Even the mounting is screwed.

So I took the car back to Siang Hin on Sunday, told them that I need the valve and engine to be changed or at least fixed. Coz if I continue to have low power and high FC like this it will continue giving me problem and I will continue sending it back and it's not good for both of us.

Siang Hin feller : But we have changed the valves for you.
Me : Nope, my friend is a mechanic, he checked and even show me that the valve is not changed, or maybe you guys bought scraps to replace and it is doing my car no good. I want it to be replaced with new parts because it is your workshop's fault that my car end up in this condition.
Siang Hin feller : We will consider. (that means he admit that he cheat me la)
Me : I wanna speak to your boss.
Siang Hin boss : I am the boss (a lady)
Me : Alright, so your boys spoilt my car, I need the valves to be changed or at least fixed. (repeat the problem above)
Siang Hin boss : We shall take responsibility.
Me : Alright.

Few minutes later.

Siang Hin feller : Miss, your car leak black oil, need to refill.
Me : How come leaking? Last time you guys fixed it ma.
Siang Hin feller : (totally ignore my question) Miss, you wanna buy which black oil?
Me : Why should I buy when you guys are the one who spoilt it? It never leak until you guys lay hands on it.
Siang Hin boss : Miss, changing timing belt have nothing to do with black oil.
Me : When I sent my car back for the third time, it's already leaking. (calling my mechanic - he said yes, it might caused rupture when timing belt pulled my engine senget)
Siang Hin boss : We will not fix the leakage.
Me : Alright, I'll make sure I update the tribunal.

And now my car is still with me, still leaking engine oil. Waiting for tribunal to do things would be very long. Valve not changed. No complete overhaul. Blah..... life sucks for me now.

10 Mar - Collect the car at 7pm. Test drive during traffic jam from Siang Hin Jln Tun Razak road to Jalan Loke Yew, car died when idle at the ramp up to UE3. Died during idle another time near the junction to my place.
11 Mar - Sent back to workshop to fix the die when idle problem.
12 Mar - Took back the car at 6pm.
13 Mar - Noticed engine oil leakage. Sent back to workshop.
14 Mar - Took back car, bring back to apt. Get a mechanic friend to help me check, valve is unchanged, no overhaul is done. Pissed off.
16 Mar - Back from outstation. Sent car to workshop.
17 Mar - Took back car. They claimed that overhaul is done. Noticed the RPM is way higher than normal. Sent back to workshop.

Tribunal is helping, else they won't fix it for me wink.gif So far so good, driving had been smooth and no leakage spotted. Warranty period over for me (they said 1 month), so if any problem after they won't be responsible. Sucky excuse, but have to accept.

Pray that nothing will go wrong sweat.gif
