  1. Thanks for the advice, that's what Im planning to do, I'll let the agents to decide it once they checked the health of the belt tomorrow.
  2. Also you will need to clean the turbo lines after the next service, mine is 66K on the clock, planning to get it done tomorrow, the cost is roughly 30K as far as I know. I also bit confusing about the right time to replace the drive belt, I spoke to the agents and they said at 100K, but according to the Upul (Malabe) after 60K. according to the Google search 60K - 100K or every 6years whichever comes first. Can someone enlighten up pls
  3. Thank you very much for your comment nexus. Yes, I'm having a hard time to find the 100% correct ECU. it is just impossible i feel. few weeks back my car started kind a miss and stop once it started an runs a few meters. but gradually this became a worse day by day, it stops several times within a 1KM. sometimes its really difficult to starts even. 1st checked all the possible mechanical problems, everything was just fine. then I had to check possible electrical problem so we opened the ECU. we found it had been repaired previously. so my electrical guy found some more faults and did the needful. but unfortunately after a week or so same problem happened. Since I could not find the exact ECU we repaid it once again few days back. this time we replaced few resisters also. so far so good.
  4. Can someone tell me what is the similar Engine control for Toyota 89661 - 2d280 (ECT 5A-FE) My car is Carina AT 192 auto transmission.
  5. hello charitha19 do you have any contact no of that guy how in Mirihana? or at least directions (i know about Mirihana area)
  6. THX The Don.. Actually the leak is not anymore. could you recommend a good place where i can run a diagnostic test? If the problem is in the gearbox, according to your knowledge what kind of a situations i better get installed a recondition gearbox instead of repairing the existing one? thank u again.
  7. I have Carina AT192 1.5cc petrol car (5A engine and spark plugs with distributor model) with auto transmission. Almost 6 months back I found a small oil leak out at ATF sump. So I manually drain the sump and clean the filter also and fill up with Caltex (power steering/ATF) oil. Everything was just fine and after around 2500KM - 3000KM I saw OD ON/Off indicator at dashboard time by time ON and OFF. Initially I thought it is something like a wire short at dash board. And after a while I experienced a weird gear shifting sometimes, it is like excessively race the engine but not shift to the right gear. In the morning this happens very often and then goes away. But now I have done around 4000KM and now it happens almost all the time. I showed the issue to a garage they said this model has only one censer relating to gear box and it is ok at the moment. I but I feel that they did not do a correct remedy for it. So my questions are, Is this some kind of a censer failing? Normally this model has only one censer? If this is not a censer failing could be gearbox failing I guess so that means I have to repair the gear box, so is it wise to repair the box or go for a recondition gearbox? How much will it cost for a recondition box installation done? Thank a lot. Akalpa
  8. Thx Sumith, I checked the exhaust pipe its dry no sign of oil and there is a small leak near the sump as u guess, probably that might be the reason. Have a nice day THX Aakalpa
  9. Hi guys, My car is Carina AT192, I have a problem with my engine oil level. Usually I service the car once in every 4000km. Meanwhile approximately I add ½ liter + rest of the oil from 4 liter can which I used for early service. (AC, Pick up quite ok. No smoke also) I just need do know, do I need to get replaced my piston ring set? THX
