Noticed some "wind sound" on my way back to KL from SG/JB, upon reaching Damansara tollgate, the sound became more obvious, pulled over and found out the "Covering outer right" PN: 51 71 8 158 060 was bent backwards, rubbing against the road. It was drizzling so I ignore and drove the remaining few kilometers home.
Sourced the part from Bavarian Auto SS2 the next day, RM250.
Today around noon I called up Speedline KD but they're busy until Monday. I then tried Shah Alam tyres, they're OK to swap out the lowering springs with original springs, for RM250.
Spent my entire afternoon until 7.20pm at Shah Alam Tyres, activity list:
1. removed original rims and left for bents repair & paint recoat
2. replaced Eibach lowering sport springs with original springs
3. found out front "Stabilizer Link" PN:31 35 1 095 664 worn off on the passenger side, ordered and replaced both sides.
4. replace broken "Covering outer right" PN: 51 71 8 158 060
5. identified worn off "headlamp auto-leveling thingy" but failed to order the correct one. I've yet to find out the actual part name and number.
Total Damage:
a) 2 x stabilizer links @ RM145 each
b) labour for spring swapping @ RM250
c) service tax 6% @ RM15
Upcoming damage next week:
a) Rim repair @ RM280
b) Rim coating @ RM340
c) on-wheel balancing @ RM30
d) alignment @ RM45
e) service tax 6% @ RM41.70
On the way back, drove over all sorts of "difficult humps" in purpose, clear!
My UDM#3 has grown taller!
