My ride reached 145,000 km this week after 4 years. I have been very happy and satisfied with my ride. In the last two months, I had to change engine oil twice as my engine was found to be empty without oil!? Going to a local service center they did not find this problem and also one of my fans were breaking down. I spent some couple of hundreds changing some parts that did not solve the problem but just a band-aid over the problems. Driving awhile more, I found the problem arising again, wanting a second opinion I sort out our resident guru Koolaba bro and he recommended me Aldan Motor Service Pte Ltd - they service alot of Skoda cabbies, so the experience is there and have all the VAG kits and tools. Went there for a quote for the items I wanted, and fair enough price, accepted it and sent it to get it serviced. 3 hrs later got a call from the owner to say he found my engine oil completed gone and was shocked as it dose not evaporate, told me he further investigated it and found the gasket of the engine broken. He recommended me to change it as it will spoil the vehicle if I do not. With that I said yes, went to the work shop to take a look and found my main engine covers off to reveal the pistons and other parts and showed me the broken gaskets and seams. Wow why didn't the previous person find this out. Got my ride back today and it is purring again, with the changed engine mounts, my ride is also quieter and feels like no more vibrations, got new engine oil, transmission oil changed, new radiator fan, expansion tank, drive shaft cover, oil filter, coolants, valve cover gasket..etc. Worth every penny, ride feels great, (like new feeling) Just wanted to share my experience.

Do you compliment or praise people in a social or work environment if they did something commendable? Do you find that you praise more or criticize more? Why so? Is it because in Asian culture, people are expected to do everything right so praise is unnecessary? Is it because in Asian culture, people are supposed to show restrain and humility so praising / being praised is "embarassing"? Is it because people are generally inept and not praise worthy? Is it because of some personal insecurity where praising is seen as admitting another person is better than oneself? Please discuss

I think with so much "bad publicity" about dealership etc.. at least, I wanna offer my opinion on my own servicing during my latest 40K. Can be seen in my blog At least, they managed to SOLVE my problem, though it was after a few complaints.. they changed this, changed that.. but never fully solved it before. What was changed, in all, suspension bushing , link rods, and now even the entire suspension mountings. So almost all new liao.. hahaha. and under warranty, so dun even need to pay for parts. Probably if I had gone to outside workshop, they MIGHT have solved it first round, but I will have to pay for the parts... So I guess, they are not THAT bad..
