Did you do the Emission test at the same place on second time? if you did the emission test at Drive green, try to do it in a Laughs eco place. friend of mines 2016 Hilux (Brand New) failed at Drive green (Quite strange), but passed at Laughs Eco sri without any issue (Could be due to their testing tool malfunction or something else). on the other note, did you got a CEL? bit strange you failed the emission test without throwing a CEL.

Place To Buy A Good Horn (Around Colombo)
Ruslan replied to Nadeeshabey's topic in General Automotive
FIAMM which sold in panchi are made in Italy. Got myself a pair of AM80S which cost around 2500/-. Came with a FIAMM relay as well. -
Congrats, on the Buy. i guess the Price is worth it for a Fit. Since it's 1.3 how is it compared with rest of the 1.5 Brethren?

Maintenance Wise Petrol will be easy to maintain, No DPF Cleaning etc. Newer Common-rail engines have issues with Local Fuel.

Corolla 141 Parking lights and dash lights not working
Ruslan replied to Eranga89's question in Electrical problems
There should be a another fuse box located in the dash (Probably under the steering). Check the "Tail" fuse in that. -
+ for Baygon or Mortein, used it and it worked Nicely, Spray it inside boot, inside upholstery panels etc, and close the doors for a while (5-10Mins) and then opened the doors under the Sun.

This is indeed a ex DPL car. which i would believe specially ordered by the Agents, and lately resold with Regular plates. we used to have Luxel but it's an Auto, nothing bad about 1ZZ-FE.

Help Me To Recognize Whether It Is A Fault Or Just The Car's Nature
Ruslan replied to alpha17's topic in General Automotive
Even though Axio and Corolla (121) share the same Engine (1NZ-FE), most of the components in the Axio is totally different, for example Injectors, Head, ECU Map is totally different than previous Gen corolla. added CVT to that list you'll get a totally different car. -
Toyota Vois, Nissan Tiida, Honda Fir Aria - What Is Good To Buy
Ruslan replied to Darshana-p's topic in General Automotive
I'm Driving a 2006 Face-lifted Vios, Cosmetically front Grille, Headlights, Gauge cluster and Tail lights has some subtle changes over pre-facelift model. did the intermittent wiper modification using Corolla 121 Wiper switch. it's a plug and play mod. and only S Grade models came with Folding mirror option. but easily swappable on E grades as it's pre wired and only Mirror unit and switch (With Folding button) needs to be replaced. -
So far so good, there's wee bit road noise which doesn't bother that much. comfort levels are ok as well.

Mitsubishi L200 Sealed Beam Headlight Replacement
Ruslan replied to Thanushka's topic in General Automotive
Yes, you can replace it with H4 Rectangular Unit. wire loom will be same. just look around in Delkanda area. we did the same for Family owned Townace Van once. plus, you don't need a mechanic, unscrew the frame around the Sealed beam, repeat it with H4 Housing replacement. -

Engine Transplant 4Dr5 To 4Dr6 Or 4D56?
Ruslan replied to Nishan.dj's question in Mechanical problems
I think 4DR6 is the same block of 4DR5 with Turbocharged with direct injection. So check the condition of the Turbo. -
Engine Transplant 4Dr5 To 4Dr6 Or 4D56?
Ruslan replied to Nishan.dj's question in Mechanical problems
4DR6 would be straight forward swap as it will share among the J Series Jeeps (aka Safarai Model) as i herd, might want to swap the rear Axle as well because of the final ratio difference. -
