Black...that was indeed my car....had a nasty accident infront Tesco Ampang...:banghead::banghead:

.. but okay wor, u avoided hitting the main chassis of the car, so the hallmark handling characteristic of the car is not affected any bit after the repair. There's always consolation in any mishaps.. :wink:

Hi Turbosnail,

When you said air con service, what kind of aircond serivce ?

Sorry to ask you this because to me when you said aircond service, i would think checking all the aircond point for gas leakage, removing the center piece cooling coil and applying chemical to remove dirt just like servicing air-cond , change a/c filter n finally add in coolant gas.

If your mechanic really doing that + change a/c filter , then that is very affordable lei..... :top:
