Well about 4 months ago I had to replace my aircon pipes because the one failed.
Beginning of the month the new pipe looks like it just "popped out" from it's mounting.
I took the bakkie in to Toyota this morning with an appointment I made 2 weeks ago after speaking to the workshop foreman.
This morning I was told they need to replace the pipe. I looked at the guys and smiled and said @ Toyota's cost.
I don't think he appreciated my comment.
What do you guys think? I mean 4 months after a new “Toyota original parts” was installed by “Toyota”

Yeah, I would also expect them to cover the replacement cost. I would do it for my customers!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Ahh all sorted, no charge.
What a blessing it is to have aircon again.
