  1. Clearly you haven't read the op original post correctly The engine didn't seize after the op left the garage , the engine didn't seized the next day Most automotive manufacturers advised owners to check their oil levels on a regular basis as detailed here http://www.mitshelp.com/micont-1514.html https://www.ford.co.uk/owner/resources-and-support/ask-ford/technical-and-maintenance/maintenance/checking-and-adding-engine-oil Similarly automotive manufacturers advised owners to refuel when the low fuel light come on otherwise you vehicle will come to a complete stop
  2. Its okay II understand you are unable fo find a link to backup your claims
  3. Or should we just assume that you are wrong as you unable to provide any links that support your view
  4. I know someone that took their car into the Thai equilvent of UK Kwik Fit for a 50,000 km pre service check The manufacture recommends that the following items be changed as part of 50,000km service Engine oil 0W20-SN Oil filter Washer drain oil pan and inspect key components The Thai equilvent of UK Kwik Fit decided that where the manufacture states inspect they interpreted that as replace regardless if item needed replacing or not Car was taken to main dealer where the changed only Engine oil 0W20-SN Oil filter Washer drain oil pan as per service-recommendation they inspect everything else but there view no replacements required
  5. The links i provided was to informed that as part of low engine power under load and at speeds > 70kph doesn't require an engine oil level check The op stated in his opening post he does check the engine oil level but hasn't done so for the past few months
  6. The links i provided was to informed that as part of low engine power under load and at speeds > 70kph doesn't require an engine oil level check The op stated in his opening post he does check the engine oil level but hasn't done so for the past few months
  7. The question that needs to be asked if the op was experiencing "engine power under load and at speeds > 70kph (likely fuel starvation" why didn't he check the engine oil before taking it to the garage after all if it was low engine oil and he topped up the engine oil and it cured the problem he was having The op indicated that he thought it was (likely fuel starvation" Mitsubishi Pajero Sport slow acceleration causes and how to fix it https://www.wheelsjoint.com/mitsubishi-pajero-sport-slow-acceleration-causes-and-how-to-fix-it/ Once again no mention of checking engine oil Most people complain when a garage carry out extra work or work that hasn't been approved by them and the garage wants to charge for it
  8. Incorrect He asked them to "diagnose and fix a problem with engine power under load and at speeds > 70kph (likely fuel starvation" There are many videos that all indicated that as part of low power under load you check multiple items ranging from fuel pump,spark plugs air filter, fuel filter no check of engine oil required https://cartreatments.com/car-losing-power-when-accelerating/ The op mentions that his car was overdue a service now if he had asked the garage to do a service at the same time then the engine oil would have been checked
  9. In a further effort to fight against the spread of the virus, Emmanuel Macron’s government has announced new rules that included mandatory full vaccinations professional sportspeople in France, from January 15. https://www.sportsjoe.ie/rugby/ireland-france-vaccinated-players-six-nations-245318
  10. Judge Kelly said he was open to Djokovic giving evidence remotely from immigration detention. He also warned he would not be swayed by a Tennis Australia preference that the matter be resolved by Tuesday. “If I can say with the respect necessary, the tail won’t be wagging the dog here,” he said. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/1/6/novak-djokovic-to-remain-in-detention-after-hearing-adjourned Doesn't seem that the judge is a huge tennis fan
  11. PCR Test on Arrival PCR Test on day 6 (at a test centre)
  12. This post indicates that Thai pass not valid if you bring flight forward The 72 hour rule is for delayed flights after the departure time listed on the Thai Pass
  13. The other gripe that the lady has is “The room is nice but it is closed and we are not allowed to go out. . We are allowed outside at a special time during the day but because there are other covid-19 patients I don’t dare to go out there,” she says. If they had been allowed to isolate in the hotel would she have stayed in the hotel room 24/7 for the 10 day period or did she expect that she would be able to go out and carry on her holiday as normal. https://scandasia.com/travel-agency-tui-receives-more-criticism-after-norwegian-family-was-isolated-in-thailand/
  14. outbreak at school The children are students at Sjøskogen School, where the disease broke out before Christmas. On December 21, the municipality of s announced that a micro-infection had been confirmed in the school. She is critical of the fact that the school was open even though there was a lot of infection there. Before the end of last week, parents were told that everyone should come and take exams and get their kids tested. http://www.modularphonesforum.com/holidays-thailand-a-family-christmas-holiday-in-thailand-has-become-a-nightmare-for-corona-the-only-thing-we-want-now-is-to-go-home/
  15. This Thread has a different viewpoint on what has been reported in the Thai Media https://aseannow.com/topic/1243965-israeli-tourist-who-spent-four-days-on-the-run-after-testing-positive-for-covid-arrested-in-koh-samui/ Key Points Police said the man arrived in Thailand on December 17 and was placed in quarantine at a hotel in the Sukhumvit area. He took an RT-PCR test which came back positive for COVID-19 but the strain has yet to be determined. The patient then refused treatment before escaping the quarantine facility. Police said the man then hailed a taxi and travelled to Pattaya where he tried to check in to a hotel but was refused entry as he was unable to provide any travel documentation He stayed in Pattaya until December 19 where he rented a mini van and travelled to Chumphon. Police then picked him up on CCTV in Chumpon and discovered he was travelling to Koh Samui. On Wednesday, police tracked the man down to a restaurant at Naithon Beach.
  16. There are many reports of the Thai Police reviewing the CCTV footage of the Bangkok Hotels, We must assume that they didn't release the footage becuase it had no added value i.e if someone was wearing a baseball cap sunglasses and a full face mask unlikely anyone could identify him in the street There are many detailed articles that state he had hailed a taxi from a hotel in Sukhumvit to a hotel in Pattaya Upon reaching hotel in Pattaya, it appears that travel documents and covid test documents must be presented. Respondent refused to show travel documents. We must assume he was unwilling to show passport as that would expose that he recently arrived in Thailand and the Hotel would question why he didn't have the results of his RT-PCR from his stay and go hotel. reports state that he rented a black Toyota Alphard van which police caught on CCTV in Chumphon Once the Police were monitoring Road Camera CCTV is was only a matter of time until they located the van at Nathon beach , Koh Samui, and then visit all the tourist locations nearby Unable to provide a link as forum rules state English language only
  17. Unlikely scenario as reported by the Times of Israel He traveled by taxi to the city of Pattaya, where CCTV footage showed him trying to check in at a hotel but being rejected because he refused to show his passport. On Saturday, he called the Bangkok hotel and said he was visiting a friend at a hospital and would return later that day, which didn’t happen. Baruch then reportedly turned off his phone on Saturday night and traveled back to Bangkok and then to the southern island of Koh Samui. https://www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-faces-thailand-jail-time-after-leaving-quarantine-evading-police-for-5-days/ If he left the Bangkok Hotel with the hotel aproval why would he 1) Refused to show his passport when attempting to check into a Pattaya hotel 2) Why would he phone the Bangkok hotel and advised them he was visiting a friend in a hospital in near Soi Phetchaburi 47 Bangkok and he would return to the Bangkok hotel later in the day 3) I think its virtually impossible for a farang to rent a vehicle without producing a passport 4) He must have been unlucky when selecting vehicle of choice as it didn't come with any usb ports for charging his phone hence he was unable to charge phone if battery had run dry or could be he simply turned the phone off
  18. Pol Col Duangchote Suwancharas, superintendent of Thong Lor police, said the suspect pleaded guilty in court, so his punishment was reduced to a 2,000 baht fine. Immigration police have taken him into custody for deportation, Pol Col Duangchote said. https://www.thephuketnews.com/israeli-fined-for-fleeing-positive-omicron-result-82538.php
  19. It was you that originally posted Krabi, your post made no mention of Koh Lanta which is in the Krabi province, So now you stating that your post was incorrect thanks
  20. Phuket Airport to Krabi is 137KM travelling by road approx 2 hours and no car ferry required, I don't think there is any car ferry operating between Krabi and Phuket
  21. Here is a US comparison specs might differ slightly for the Asean Market https://www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/sony-x950h-vs-sony-x90j/1777/21562?usage=1&threshold=0.10 Personally I went for the x950h and have no issue with black levels they are not inky black like an OLED but come pretty close I found the standard settings when opening the box to bright, brightness was set to 35 and colour was set to 60, I found brightness needs to be set to around 3 for SD and colour set to 50 This video is useful for both Android and Google sets as there are lots of icons that you might not require and they take up memory and screen space 11 Little-Known Hacks to Speed Up Your Sony TV Performance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SW1S68w4Uvc On the x950h if you reverse the feet i.e put left foot rightside and right foot leftside you can reduce the footprint of the stand down to 80cm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0z7QRCx_Gs if viewing in shops looking at the oled demos gives you a good idea of black levels performance
