The time is 00:26 and I just got in from yesterdays and this nights work. Yesterday was a huge cluster fuck. I can't help to wonder what I'm doing wrong since everything ALWAYS goes to hell. One step forward and a boogie woogie backwards. =(

Got up at around 06:00 to get the car to "Bilteknik" in Katrineholm for a wheel alignment. I was there around 07.15 and it didn't start out good. They couldn't find the work order for the car. After some fiddling in the computer they manage to find it. I talked to the guy that was gonna do the work, very nice and skilled dude. I left the keys and went home. Around 09:00 they called from "Bilteknik" and said that they ran into some problems. They said that one wheel bearing probably was about to die and they didn't want to align the wheels if that was the case. But I told them to align the damn wheels anyways. They said they were gonna call me when the job was done. I checked my cell phone around 11.40 to see if they might have called me on that one. Felt like they should have been done around now since I left it so early. And yes, they have left a message on the cell phone so I called them up. But then the mechanic was out for lunch. =( He called me back at 13.00 and sang the same song as they did earlier, about the wheel barring. For the second time I told them to align the damn wheels anyways. We agreed that I should pick the car up around 16:00.

I called "Dalhems" who had a heat isolation fabric that I needed to replace the one that caught on fire. It was 250SEK for 50x50cm. It should be here sometime next week. With my luck it's probably the worst crap ever. Also ordered four wheel caps I need for a little special thingy. More info once I get started. =)

The clock got close to 16:00 and I transported myself to "Bilteknik". To be honest, for a few days I have had that odd feeling that something was gonna go bad with this. And when I entered the shop and saw how they looked at me I knew the verdict was bad. The car wasn't ready! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! The alignment on the steering rods was stuck. Everything else was aligned and I would take the car with me and they would call me next week when they could take it in and fix the last stuffs. Since the car was up on the lift they showed me what was stuck and I said I was gonna try to unstuck it for them. They thought that was a good idea. Since they were about to close the shop I was a bit stressed out and didn't have the time to check the car that carefully. Only checked the speedometer so it hadn't been driven too far, which it hadn't (I'm paranoid). =) I couldn't hold it back when going home. I went fast! It was fun! Wrooooom! Though there was some odd vibrations in the rear, don't know if it's because everything isn't aligned or if it's that wheel barring. Guess I'll just have to wait until it's all aligned.

Once home it felt like a good idea to make sure that all rims were ok and unharmed after their work. Guess what? Yes... The rear right rim had a couple of ugly scratches! Also the drivers door had a few scratches. They had already closed up when I noticed this so it was too late to call them today. I'll call them first thing on Monday! I find it odd that there's always always always something that fucks up. Gonna snap some pics on the misery.

Angry as hell I started to jack the car up. Just a thing like that is an adventure on it's own when there's an old SAAB V4 on the best spot in the garage and all space that's left is a gravel pitch. I started to work on the steering rod alignment which wasn't the easiest. The left side took a couple of hours and the ball joint on the steering rod died during the fight. Than you lord almighty for supporting me and making my life easy! Fucking shit! A new one costs 300-350SEK. The right side was easier though and it only took around an hour. While doing this I noticed that the cv joint rubber boots was leaking grease. This even though I’ve used nice original Audi clamps around them. Both rims up front had grease on them. Not sure if they are leaking or if I had missed to wipe it clean when I assembled it. Gonna investigate further later today if I have the strength. I also noticed that both front brakes are constantly on. It seems like the pistons don't go back as they should. =// It looks like both the outer brake pads have taken some beating because of this. So damn funny! =( Now the car is in the garage again and I'm trying to cool down. Need to order a new ball joint on Monday and get it here with express delivery. Need do get it fitted on Tuesday so I can do the annual MOT on Wednesday. And the car might go in for wheel alignment again on Wednesday evening. Another interesting thing is that no nuts up front or at the rear have any signs what so ever of the alignment. So don't know what they have aligned. I need to investigate this further today.

Todays question: What on earth am I doing wrong!?
