Report 5 Started Sydney life

Hello Every one, I've finally arrived at Sydney, the journey what is from Melbourne to Sydney was really good for me. because almost of the way is straight, and I could see spectacular landscape on my way to there, I felt authentic Australia. I'd like to report about it and new life in Sydney. 

(1) On my way to Sydney by Jazz

When I was told what I go to Sydney, I was so glad comprising the journey. I drove narrow, and short road everywhere in Japan. However, Australia is big country and has lots of long straight FREE way. It means I can go great driving for the purpose of migration. It was clearly my good experience. 




   



(2) New homestay 

There are 5 people and a dog in my new host family. Host parents, two boys, me, and Spoodle what is kind of mixed dogs. Every one is funny, kind, and attractive. I really think, the family is perfectly Australian one. Big house with pool, big garden, and cosy atmosphere. They have lots of things what I should learn. 

They took me Japanese restaurant for dinner when I arrived at Sydney. I ate "Katsu-don" after a long time. I went back to Japan at that moment. I really miss Japanese food although Australian one is good. 



(3) Working 

About working, I work at Scots Honda. Every one who works at Scots is always busy. Morning tea is for 10 minutes, and Lunch time is just for 30 minutes. And the job contents are changed compared to when I was in Melbourne. the job was basic and not really difficult. However, My brain is about to spark because the contents in Sydney are hard and I have to do about them quickly. I really feel my knowledge and level are growing up immediately. 







The problem of this car was oil leaking. The cause was deterioration of rubber packing. So Mickey who is my senior and I had to replace the packing. By the way, he works at Scots over 20 years, really good man. 





In these ways, I spend a busy time everyday especially in here. I'll be able to grow up if I don't give up about them. I'm looking forward to my growth. Thank you.

Report 4 Technical summary of Melbourne

Hello everyone, I'd like to report the technical summary in Melbourne for 3 month. 

I graduated ELSIS(English school), and finished the working at headquarter. Every one who works at headquarter is really kind and taught me various things.

Especially about technical skills, I learnt about basic one from Colin and Denis. 

I mainly learnt:

(1) PDI(Pre Delivery Inspection)
(2) How to replace brake pads
(3) Install toe bar

I'd like to report these 3 things.


(1) PDI(Pre Delivery Inspection)

In these 3 things, I did it the most of all.
First, check there is damage or not, and check other things what are light and monitor etc. 
When you finished to check all things, the last task is washing the car. In that case, you really have to wash it properly, more than usual.




(2) How to replace brake pads



Replacing brake pads are not really difficult,
First you take a bolt of bottom.


Then, raise the caliper brackets.


The new pad is really different from old one, means the old one worked a lot.


After installation of new pads, you have to return a piston.


The piston appeared. If it isn't returned, you can't install the pads properly. 


You can push the piston by water pump pliers and a flat thing( I used an old pad this time)



It returned perfectly.

And then, returned the bolt what you took off first.

Finally, you conform the brakes work or not. 

(3) Install toe bar




I could help this task only half way because it was difficult for me. But I did it many times. 


I did these 3 things many times for 3 month in Melbourne, I can't forget the task and lots of memories.

Thank you.
