Andrea and myself had our own set of drama when noise and smoke came out of her bonnet on Nicole's wedding morning itself. Since we had a tight schedule, we decided the leave the car and get all the important things done... we just had to put this aside and figure it out later.
Good thing Andrea's Dad insist that we got it fixed as most mechanics don't work on Sun. It was a challenge as we do not know many people in Ipoh and we barely know our way around town. But by God's intervention, Andrea managed to get hold of a mechanic through a friend. It was really God with us as by the time we took the risk (somehow there was no more smoke when we tried to drive it in the evening) to drive and search for the workshop using only the GPS and landmark told by the mechanic.
We reached the workshop and their shutter was almost down. They waited patiently for us. A few of them work together to check on the car. They discovered that the problem was with the alternator. We were told that it can break down anytime for any car and there is no way to check it in advanced. Thank God they have a replacement and they didn't charged us unreasonably as we were recommended by one of their frequent customer.
The mechanic also told us that we would never had make it back to KL with a faulty alternator. Praise God that the car didn't break down during our journey there and back. It would have been a lot worse.
By the time the alternator was fixed it was around 6.50pm. I thought we were going to missed the march in for the dinner (it was supposed to start at 7pm) We did try calling Peter's friend to shoot if we couldn't make it. We reached the restaurant at 7.15pm. The dinner was delayed to start at 7.45pm.
We made it! Haha. God is good.
