I think you may be right. Will keep my fingers crossed, and if I decide to buy a new one, that's fine too. Life is good (no endorsement for LG products intended).

Semi-humorous update to my fridge drama. Well, it turned out the ending of the loud noises signaled the death of the unit. It stopped functioning as a fridge although it cooled a little, ending up spoiling a lot of my food. I finally got some advise from the store that a tip of 200 baht (covering two people) would do the trick of getting them to remove the old fridge (I tipped a bit more, foreigner guilt complex I suppose) and I now have a spanking new fridge in time for the Songkran hibernation. Thanks for the suggestions on the thread. Case closed.

I updated the info on the thread. I think it was 7 years old, not 10. Anyway, it's gone, which you'd know if you read the thread.

MODS PLEASE CLOSE!

I bought a refrigerator. The store didn't have any iceboxes stocked.
