I think I should go to my trusted mechanic tomorrow and have it replaced before this happens to me.hehe

yikes, delikado na yan. normally, you change it every 80k kms. ako nga, since may previous experience na ko sa ganyan, i had mine changed during the 70k kms. mark.

Yah, I know. My SA was surprised when I told him that I haven't replaced it yet coz I should have replaced it a long time ago. Well, my car is in the casa right now due to the lighting Malfunction Indicator Light that won't go away and while it's lighting, the car jerks wildly once I remove my foot off the pedal. I will just tell them to get it done or perhaps buy the parts there and bring my car to my trusted mechanic so that the labor is cheaper.hehe
