itim's illness
i probably posted too soon... itim is ill again.
last friday, i went to lunch with my mentee and on my way back to the office, tumataas na naman ang temp ni itim. i was praying so hard na sana umabot man lang sa compound ng office namin para hindi ako ma-stuck sa daan. i made it safe naman. je went to my office that night to check out itim and para alalayan na rin ako sa pag-uwi. we made it home naman, after lagyan ulet ng tubig ang radiator.
there's something really wrong. tuyo na naman yung radiator at reservoir, eh ilang araw pa lang since nung pinuno namin yon. siguro may leak, pero wala naman kaming nakikitang tumutulo. *sigh*
meron din tumutunog sa ilalim. like metal scraping against metal. it's not consistent, pero madalas tumutunog pag nalulubak, at pag galing sa stop. and usually, pag bagong start pa lang ng kotse. pag matagal nang tumatakbo, wala namang tumutunog. it doesn't do that sound thing when breaking, pero pag inaapakan ang gas. weird talaga.
hubby je already brought it to the repair shop, and they heard the scraping sound din. pero they can't figure out what's wrong. tinaas na nila yung kotse, dinaganan, ni-drive, ni-inspect. nothing.
apart from that, nasira na rin yung latch ng hood. so ayaw nang sumara completely ng hood ni itm. hubby je improvised and used some plastic thingy to tie the hood to the lock muna, until maipagawa namin this weekend. i've been driving his car to and from work. sya ang nagdadrive kay itim this week.
also, barado yung nag-i-squirt ng wiper fluid. either that, or naburn out na yung motor don.sayang, kalalagay pa lang namin ng wiper fluid na may pang-tanggal ng bugs. tsk.
ano ba yan, andami palang sira ni itim. i know we were planning on getting a new car, perhaps a minivan para kay pistoy. but i didn't imagine i'll be parting ways with itim like this. i was hoping he would still survive to serve my mama and papa when the time comes i have to go back to work after my maternity leave. oh well. maybe he will survive. but i am not willing to spend a thousand bucks to repair him. that's probably what he'll be worth if we trade him in now.
to keep him or not? hay.
