Just water? Not green/amber/red/orange/black/yellow/blue?

Do you use A/C a lot? If so then it's normal because it's humidity.

it is clear, I feel it is just water but it has been like that everyday when I leave the driveway, my father checked when I first noticed it, he thought it was just temporary which will dissolve but it didn't - I didnt use A/C a lot, but I use heather mostly. Goddamn it, it is winter down here!

eh it's normal if it's just a water. not a problem. it's not a leak - just a condensation.

Yeah, but I'd like to be pre cautioned, so I asked them to check for me, thats all.

It's normal. Our 2005 Ford Focus with 110k miles still leak water. My 2001 Subaru with 130k miles have rare water leak. No idea why.
 
Picked up my car this evening, the leak I told them was actually a leak, the paper said

'inspected water leaking into cabin confirmed leak found A/C drain blocked causing the leak, unblocked A/C drain and road tested ALL OK'

It was the A/C drain which was blocked caused the leak, and no charge, it was covered by my car warranty = WIN.

The total fee I paid was $254.85.

I thought it costs around 60 to 80 fee for inspect everything to be sure theres no faults on the car, but $254?
 
Oh, correction - it was $245.85 - NOT 254.85, my bad.

I am currently busy right now, but I will type out the receipt of the service that is in part of the 15,000km service check up later on

No, 70 percent coolant, 30 percent water. It helps the engine to warm up faster in frigid weather and less water freezing up.

Oh, 30/70 looks like little coolant mix. I usually see the coolant mix percent
is starting on the front (first place) then last place of the water mix percent. If
I correct it? I learned it from the instruction label on the back of the coolant
container.

I just had some work done on my car so I would pass auto inspection sticker.
The auto shop knew I needed the work done for this. I got a rejection sticker away! I spend $ 330 for the repairs , but the shop did not tell me that I had to drive my car about 50 - 100 miles so it could reprogammed itself! I am so piss off! I did speak the shop this and they gave a lame reason , they did not know I was getting my car inspected!

Shame on them for not inform you that your car have to be driving several miles to clear OBD-II monitorings. Huh, they didnt know anything?

Also post a pictures please. I can't figure it out how to connection between braided SS brake line and O2 sensor. Welding? Force? Which part I should cut on the os sensor.

Sorry I dont know how post pics. I'm dunno. Anyway, I found one clip for you to view the back pressure test demo on youtube. Type " Exhaust back pressure testing" on youtube. This demo is exact what I did back pressure test. The guy in the clip will show you the old O2 sensor modified to an adapter. Cool.
I have not try on a braided SS brake line to mod my vacuum/pressure gauge. one thing is you have to cut the fitting end off from the braided SS line. I know
the gauge store sell a 15 psi pressure, 4 inch head gauage with threaded male NPT fitting, you can connect a braided ss brake line but costly.

well that's "oil change" and some superficial check-up but what Jake had was the 15,000km check up. That's different.

$200-ish is a typical price range for a complete check-up and sometimes re-calibration. Trust me - this doesn't cost $25. nope.

Re- calibration sound like retorque wheel lugs or chassis when the vehicle is newer, I think. I wish they charge customer for $25 but not.
