BLOODY CAR! I was hoping the towing guy wouldn't tie it up properly and it would fall done some deep ditch, no such luck there...

This could be the reason to the sudden loss in power to the car, all has been well since. But the car broke down on christmas day on the Craigieburn bypass and required towing home :( Back to square one, what could the problem be?

RACV also paid for my taxi to work, not bad service at all, shame there mechanics don't know shit. I got my car serviced and tuned and had the oil leak fixed, that cost me $351 parts and labour. If i was at home if would have just cost me the parts, oh well I don't have the tools or the pit in the garage, come to think of if i don't have a garage either. The garage didn't find what was wrong with the car, so no doubt i'll be calling RACV again. The car is working at the moment it must be an intermitant problem. Time of the month maybe??

The RACV are of no help, they really have little mechanical skill and very poor on customer service. So the chap said go home the car is working now, just as he turned the corner my car broke down again. I call up RACV and they said i'd have to wait an hour for the tow truck, they'd already kept me waiting for 70 minutes. Anyway I left work at 1530 and got home for 2000. I'm calling them again tomorrow morning around 6am to have them tow me to a garage near where I work. Better get my wallet out to pay for the bill. :( Bloody car broke down again, same problem.

All I had to do was explain that I am new to Melbourne, not used to the roads and that I was hardly on the freeway. He took the fine off in seconds. Made my day :) Thank you Jack.
