    406 Vs Gen 2

    thanks all of you guys.. still i'm worrying what to get. the main problem for me is to find a good chap to do the little little things when in need. the time is the biggest problem for me as a medical person. i live some 50km away from col and wont be able to drive (or toe) all the way to colombo like twice a week. pls name if yo know of a sound person(s). tks
  5. thanks varunatech, early in the morning when i start it does not appear but only after 5, 6km(?after the engine heated enough). it doesnt come all the time, but when the load is high. but when i give a bit gas more the "krrrr krrrr" sound fades. once used a 95 octane fuel where the knock seemed dissappeared and appeared again when using 90 octane. that's how i can explain it. pls help me elaborate. thanks

    i agree don, my budget is around 1.5 to two mil. i love the looks,. bit of performance, comfort and a tinge of elegance. 10km/l is ok for me. the problem is the spares and maintenance. thinking of the D9, i never used to a euro car. so the mechanics im not that familiar with. i saw in one thread d9 is not a good car for daily running, is that because of the maintenance cost? of course im hoping to keep it for another 2 yrs. some say d9 is inherited with some electronic malfunctions and sensor problems where he expenses are very high and not exactly mentioned the common ones. need to know a reliable place for repairs of a Peugeot. i live in awissawella. thanks for helping me guys.
  7. thanks don. ya there's no obvious leak. i'll do the test then. can you pls tell me wht is causing the knock and how to get rid of it. thanks again.
