there is a leak!

As I mentioned in earlier post I found out I had a problem with car. this was on the 9 of may (liberation day) so didn't know if anybody would be working tomorrow.

I knew exactly what the problem was as I had the other side replaced a month before I left. and it looked exactly the same. the interesting part was howe do I find some one that can fix it for me. I had some troubles with that at home. 2 garages just said "no", but in a polite manner.

first tried to find something by myself and found a Nissan dealer nearby. looking for other options asked the receptionist at the hostel. (he spoke some English) and he opens google and informed me he didn't know as he didn't own a car. after some time he even phoned a friend and viola. we had an address, they would be open tommy from 9.

of course I was there at 9 sharp. and the owner informed me was I already new. it was an leaking Axel seal. the communication went over our phones as he didn't speak English and I hadn't done my best at Duo Lingo.

yes we can fix it. 3 hours work 2 ours wait for 'spare part'. so drove the car in for so they could start taking the Axel apart. and 20 minutes later an small box arrived with an new axil seal. I must had have an big smile, now knowing Russia has spare parts for my car. 1 out later, we found out they brought the wrong size. out came the caliper to measure thing to order the correct part.

al in all it cost me 3000 rubles, against an 72R-1E extend rate. And drove out around noon.
