Re: very jinx after visiting a workshop for service

last time, I encountered similar 'bad patch of neverending' issues with my VW mkV GTI.... then I switched workshops and found that some parts were not tightened / loosened intentionally.

your car don't like being fondled by their mech....haha
yours already small case, i ever seen bros chut pre-owned cars and spending more than 5k and that's still not the end of it.
cars are like that....when shit happens, seems like prob come one after another.
but once u get em settled, it will be good boy for next couple of years

Was wondering what wrong with service..

During the service... I asked the ws to check for coolant leak. They found 1 hose leaked and replaced.. strangely...after getting the hose replace.. I start to experience strange rev up noise... when back to check and found the 2 pulleys gone case...wondered did they accidentally touch the pulley areas when they replaced the hose?

As for the door... one spoil after another... just 1 week apart from both... am wondered its due to spoil fuses or pure mechanical fault? Buy 4D also not so zun.

Don't forget ignition coils and radiator replacements, esp above 100K km. Been there, done that.

5. seals and gaskets
