    speaking of spresso i think i wanna check it out later at a local dealership...
    personally,
    i wouldn't mind being seen driving a cheap car.
    as long as i fit comfortably inside, it is airconed, and it is not a gas guzzler.

    in the workplace, "everybody drives a not-cheap car. it's actually hip, to be driving a much cheaper car". wag lang yung kinakalawang na tetanus-carrier at tumutulo ang bubong at sahig.. heh heh.

    Out of boredom, I decided to just wrap the damn thing in a flexible self-fusing rubber tape in order to prevent water from going in. Who knows what this band aid solution does, but it's better than nothing I guess.

    "for temporary use only."
    eventually, we all know, it will have to be replaced by the appropriate replacement part.
    pantawid covid lang.
    heh heh.

    If replacement of the ball joint is not feasible at the time, i would clean the area specially the boot with carburetor cleaner or lacquer thinner. Then i would seal the ripped boot using ultra black silicone rtv sealant or use np1 adhesive/sealant. It will be almost as good as the oreeeginal boot

    My car's axle boot is leaking and the mechanic recommended to replace all (inner and outer). Kasi daw malamang susunod na rin yung ibang boot. Should I follow his advice? Or isa lang yung sira ang papalitan?

    When was the last time you changed them? If it's been a while, I suggest following your mechanic's advice.

    kung hindi naman masyado mahal,
    replace na all, po.
    save yourself the downtime and effort.

    If more than 5 years na din, palitan mo na. Susunod na din talaga yan sooner than later.
    Fasten your seatbelt! Or else... Driven To Thrill!
