    The cracked parts were glued but as they didn’t use the anti-vibration type, already most of the crack were back there.

    Looks like someone worked on the CCU in the past but put too much force when installing the unit back in palce.

    Bottom of the case at both sides were already cracked…

    Poor A pillar trim at the left side…

    The bottom corner was not installed properly and forced behind the dashboard resulting in surface material squashed.

  3. Interior noise 01

    I noticed that the fuel lid stayed closed even when the opener lever was lifted.


    Already there were some signs of someone tried to adjust the alignment in the past.


    So, removed the lid and found that the actual hinge was bent in the past causing very heavy movement.


    Greased it and moved the position of the spring and at the moment, it works fine but when the temperature ...
