hmm.... i oso suspected a little about the air con servicing.
yes, i took up the aircon servicing plus air filter change before this happened.
Think the chemical wash may have corroded the cooling coil  :ohmy:

One of the things in the package is
- Prevent unwanted accumulations of unhealthy foreign particles on cooling coil & drainage system

Probably why TC give 'good will' change, which I think is not easily to get. They must have suspected that their air-con maintenance could be related to the coil failure.
