Service is worse than Ford.

BS. Service is excellent.

Fullcave, Ignore the old fella as clearly there is something wrong upstairs so to speak..... did you notice he told us has a mate who takes his Hyundai from Thailand to Australia to be serviced......................

I believe his mate charters an Airbus specifically for the purpose.

you will have to pay all outstanding road tax and a small (I think it is 100b) fine.

My niece bought one exactly like the one pictured above and loves it for L.A. traffic and two kids. Some people just don't know a good deal when they see it.

The base model is 18k in the USA, that same base model here is 1.3 million.

Do you still think it is a good deal at more than double the cost ?

After many years working with Diesels 4ltr upwards ive never seen a broken con rod, twisted,bent,roughed up but never broken, 95% i would say the big end bolts have let go, 5% because it had to cope with a dropped valve, some rods have had the little end torn out because of this or instant overheating seizures, but not broke,

Im with Warpy on this one, 35years and havent seen a broken steel conrod, aluminum yes, in old british motorbikes, nobody uses that nowadays,,

I was a passenger in a 3 ltr Granada when a rod let go, destroyed the engine. A friend had a 3.5 Rover V8 where the rod let go and destroyed the engine. The weak link in a Pontiac engine was the cast iron rods, I used Bill Miller alloy rods, fit and forget....

Usally i ignore your posts because of your misunderstanding of plain and written english, i said STEEL rods, not cast, I looked after a fleet of Granada taxis in the early 70s, no crank/rod problems atall, only striped cam drive, [was fibre] replaced by steel cog, i will admit to knowing nothing about V8 Rovers, but i did work on a lot of the 75, 85, and 90 series cars with overhead intake and side exhaust valves, again, no crank problems,,,

As for aluminum conrods, what are they good for?? 10 goes up the strip before they need replacing???

Ally rods should be fine in a street engine that is naturally aspirated assuming the pistons are not too heavy.

Have you owned a Hyundai in Thailand, or is that just another of your throwaway lines? Other than oil changes I doubt very much in the way of servicing is needed. I had a Hyundai Getz in Australia, 5 year warranty, never did anything but change the oil 5 times in 5 years.

My Friend has a new SUV type one,very nice hes a Rep,only can get their attention in BKK no where else much in Thailand, so hes takes it to Australia for service. Any Vehicle is only as good as its aftersales service.

What, he takes the vehicle from Thailand to Australia to be serviced ?

Does he fly it there or puts it in a sea container ?

Food is really not that important to me. I know some people think food can be as good as sex. I just don't get it. But if you can eat western food here in Thailand for $10 a day, that is pretty impressive.

...or sex can be as good as food?but you won't get for 10$ a day

One can easily get sex here for $10.00 no problem..... as long as said person is not fussed with appearances.

Bought this scoot August 2012. it is the original battery unless Honda swapped it during one of the services which if they did Iam sure they would have put their hand out for money.

Just looked at the battery in my click 125i.

It is a Yuasa YTZ6V. which is 12v - 5Ah.

This is the original battery my scoot came with cause I aint ever changed it.

timely thread. my Bt.40,000 LG TV has just shit the tuner so now the missus aint got no thai soapies or cartoons to watch.

She is gunna give em a call..... I won't be holding my breath for a quick cheap fix.

And also never drive scooter in Thailand unless you have death wish.

been riding one daily for a while now.

when will I die ?

I don't get how you can spend 3000 or even 1000 a day for food. I mean, where are you guys eating? At The Oriental?

I usually spend not more than 100 Baht a day for food. A main dish which is around 40-60 Baht, some water and some snacks. Breakfast I eat at home.

The piece of steak I'll be eating for dinner tonight cost me Bt.1200, this will be had with some steamed vege's.

No work today so saved the 300b I usually spend for lunch. Had grilled cheese and vegemite on toast instead. (bread/butter/vegemite/cheese/electricity... lunch cost me about Bt.100).

Actually the prices are about 3.5m baht new as long as you don't go for the 5 litre versions.

However they are all left hand drive.

Hope this helps.

555.

Not a chance will Thailand see a Mustang remotely close to Aus prices.

I cook at home, average weekly spend is 7k for dinner, lunch is farang food at a joint near work, daily spend is 300b.

I don't eat Thai.

Thanks, i found it! Not easy tho and 1000 baht for 1 day!!!

Good to hear.

Don't bother sharing the location though.

Seems like the Tyre Fitter arguing with Stig the Driver to Me.

I have a feeling your "Stig The Driver" cut his racing teeth playing Gran Turismo and Forza on the Xbox and never actually made it to a real track.

He can always post undoctered photos / videos of the racing/cars the same way Murf bravely does.

Thats a fair point. Has Warpy ever backed up his claims of his racing prowess ?

So you geared your little stock 4cyl to run 150mph on a big oval track.... your point is ?

google fish pond venturi, easy to make from bits sourced from your local hardware and a big pump not required.

The staff make like 50 baht and hour, they really do t give a sheet I think

36% over minimum wage should not be sneezed at.

I have a 10 computer in the office and never had it.

If it happened with the old and the new computer: Is there anything that you use on both computers?

Same printer, same special device for something, same software (beside Firefox, Office, Adobe....), maybe some older software?

My first guess would be that it is either a driver or some "exotic" software.

Yep. hence I asked what the operating systems is.

I reckon it is software for a device that has compatibility issues with win7 (assuming it is runing win7).

What is the complete message ?

What operating system ?

Does it happen when you open software ?

How many years has that been for sale stingray ?
