I think the TS's ipod is not spoilt but he just wants to find a reason to send it for warranty so he can get a new unit before the warranty expires so that he don't have to worry abt it spoiling (or at least it will last longer) after the warranty period

If it's working totally fine, there is no reason to send for warranty and get one to one exchange.
Just buy the Apple Care Protection if you want extra warranty period.

No.
I'm worrying - because there is a bit of QC problem - light can be seen poking through the iPod's middle. (The part where metal and plastic connects)
I'm just a student - I don't have as much money as some rich forumers here who can dump a wad of cash on a gadget, forget about it months later...

If there's a QC problem then head to apple and ask for their advice.
If everyone is thinking like you and everytime when the warranty period is going to end soon, they'll go to Apple for one to one exchange, they will face a serious loss.
And somehow IMO, another reason Apple refuse to bring in the Iphone 3G and the official price for Apple products are higher than elsewhere is because of this type of mentality Malaysian have. They need the higher price to cover the cost for ppl who try to abuse their warranty.

What if the warranty expires and the iPod malfunctions? My friend's car just got this - 2 days after warranty expired, his engine warning indicator lighted up and black smoke started coming out of his exhaust. Sent back to C&C Bintang, repaired something in the fuel chamber, cost him about RM500..

The 1st thing is, a car and an ipod is a totally different thing.
Regarding your friend's case, I would say he is unlucky. Don't tell every owner of the same car faces the same problem like your friend here. If every owner of the same car have the same problem, then it's the manufacturer fault.
But did u heard any ipod touch owner mentioning about being faulty after warranty expired for 1 week? No right?
But if u're still worried about the QC problem, go ahead and ask them for their advice.
