b a t t e r y - no.4

since '07..this 4th battery for my wife viva..the car is daily use

and all of the battery only last for 1year on the dot

that include 1unit of free maintenance (GP Atlas) on 2nd year

after that...i'm back to wet cell battery...no point to pay an extra 40-50bucks for free maintenance cause after 1year

i've still got to change it anyway...don't know why...

i'm little bit confuse with this little monster really use high voltage to run...although its Kei-Car

 the price of battery fluctuate from time to time in malaysia

this time i buy GP brand with 13plates....normal is 11plates

just like to check how long it can last...it cost around RM130

an 20bucks different from 11plates battery with local unknown brand

traded-in my old battery...save around RM15bucks

 now my 4th battery...date start 26th May 2011

 while installed it....i'm coated it with terminal grease

 after that...went for a service...to change engine oil

while on ramp....i discover that 2 of my tyre F@#Ked-up

rear passenger side...bald inside with 2incg screw in it...while

front driver size...got bump inside....after the service

went to JooiSeng @ Batu Belah, Klang lookin for 2nd replacement

to my luck....score 2nd hand Kumho Ecsta..week 42/2010

although its 2010...the tread as good as new....
the compound still soft compared to my Yokohama A-Drive...

where A-Drive compound is little bit hard & not grippy

total damaged to wallet...RM130 for pair of tyres

 after that...i went to Ah.Hai

just drop by...to see project in the house

 while at the shop...i adjust viva rear boot

few mini outside the shop...waiting for restoration

decided to service my long due wife Perodua Viva...here check-in to my best buddy mechanic Ah.Leong to change the front right wheel bearing as the noise really make my ears bleed...damaged cost around RM90 for the wheel bearing including labour...can't get any cheaper than that...as i ask around KL...the wheel bearing alone cost around Rm80...for your information...the front wheel bearing for Perodua Viva shares with Perodua Myvi...my other service such as Engine Oil & Oil Filter cost around RM110

Total Damage to wallet - RM200

here my mechanic Ah.Leong working on my front wheel bearing

while Ah Leong do his work...found this bump at my rear right tyres...damage to wallet for tyre replacement for 165/55/R14 Yokohama A-Drive spells RM140-150/pcs
