Found the factory fitted camera from a door at a shop in Delkanda. Thanks all for the support.

I am looking for a 2nd hand factory fitted reverse camera for my Axio WxB (2019 model) as my car didn't come with it. Is there any recommended place I should go (I know that naming a place may violate forum rules as advertising within the forum. But it is appreciated if you can tell me the land marks near the shop. Then I can find it). I visited more than 10 spare parts shops around Delkanda area and did not find the genuine Toyota reverse camera. At one place, I found it. But they wanted to sell the complete boot door. Also if you can recommend me a good alternative camera with perfect night vision, that is also OK since I drive/reverse too much at night. Aside from that, if anyone knows the catalog part number for Axio NKE165 Hybrid reverse camera (may be in the form of 86790 - xxxxx) please let me know. Then I can order online, if I am unable to find it here. Thanks.

First of all, your car is not a Japanese domestic model car. All Japanese domestic model cars have only Japanese language displays. I think you better go to Toyota Lanka and show the issue to them. Then you can get some idea about the issue (they will not charge for verbal explanations. but if they need to scan your car to find the exact root cause, ask them about the total cost for investigation + fix)

You are about to buy a FD1. But again you are talking about a steering rack problem in ES8. I cannot understand how it is going to affect your FD1 purchase. Fuel consumption is approx. 7Km/L in city (one of my friend had FD1) Of course, Parts are bit expensive than toyota. Yes, the resale is bit hard when compared to . But you will get enough buyers if your selling price is good.

Thanks a lot bro. You were right. They have reset the trip computer. That's why it was showing low figures at the begining. I drove my Prius over 300 miles yesterday and everything is back to normal. I was able to reach 55 mpg on average.

Yes bro...I was planning to buy a Lancer Ex. But I had to move to a hybrid considering extremely long distance travelling which I am about to start. Prius saves good bucks on fuel (fuel cost is 1/3 when compared to my Lancer) + pretty good pulling power (1800cc engine) for the price.

I have sold my lancer & bought a Prius 3rd Gen (UK imported version) recently. What should be the correct engine oil viscosity for my car? Mfd. Year: 2010 Mileage: 35300 miles (approx. 56800 km) Driving conditions: weekdays very low traffic around 30 km per day / weekends long distance around 200km every weekend Yesterday the full service was done from Cl**n Pa*k and after that fuel economy reduced to 35 mpg on average. Usually it is between 50 - 55 MPG. Oil type used: Toyota 0W-20 SN Air filter replaced Oil filter replaced What could be the issue?

Congratz brother !!!

Thanks Bracket. However, my budget is not sufficient to go for a brand new one (yes, if I have a permit I might go. But the normal price is around 7 million at the agent). I would most probably go for a 2008 Lancer Ex (GLS).

Hi All, Currently I'm driving a 2008 model Lancer GLX (1.3 engine) and hoping to upgrade it to Lancer Ex. But a lot of people including some owners warned me about an ABS sensor issue. I want to know all the known issues related to this model and the description of each trim level (e.g. GLS) for Lancer Ex. Hope experts can help. Note: I have read all the related topics on the forum. But I was unable to find any issues other than the ABS sensor issue.

Is the Lancer EX comes with climate control A/C ?

Hi trinity & all, Thanks for the contact number and place. I have visited the Weliwita warehouse as well. I was able to find a very good quality (almost brand new condition) head light. Unfortunately there was only one light and it got a damaged edge. So, that left me no choice other than buying a new headlight. Then I bought a brand new head light for Rs.40,000/= from a place called "Mirai Auto Land" at Delkanda. It is a genuine Mitsubishi light which came in original Mitsubishi box. Still it is lot cheaper than company price (Rs.64,000).

Thanks for the detailed information mate. But I didn't get the contact number of the spare parts guy (Mahinda). Do you know the shop name /location or contact number of this spare parts guy. Great help. Thanks.

Yes. This dealine is applicable only if you want to get your old driving license converted to new license on priority basis (you will recieve the new license in less time than the standard process). Anyway I do have one question. Will they cancel our old driving licenses in near future?

Hi All, Please find the Governement Notice on Deadline For Converting Old Driving License to New Driving License. Refer the attachment. Regards, Podi Lamaya Government Special Notice - Driving Licence.pdf

Hi All, As you all can remember, my lancer met with an accident some days back. I am going to put in to the garage on this weekend. I am going to buy the headlamp today. But the prices of right hand side head lamps are insanely high. After a good 2 days of effort, got the prices from 10 - 12 places. Agent Price (Brand New): Rs.64,000 Delkanda/Wijerama Price (Brand New): Rs.45,000 Reconditioned Lights: Rs.15,000 - 18,000 I was searching for a good quality reconditioned light. But almost all the reconditioned lights had some sort of issue (faded, deep scratches, cracks at edges etc.). Therefore I have decided to go ahead with a brandnew headlamp (yes, money matters since the car is not fully insured. But no other option since the other head lamp is in near brand new condition). Few questions for experts. 1. Are these brand new headlamps from Delaknda area genuine ones? How can I verify? (e.g. comes with Mitsubishi branded box, Mitsubishi logo or text embedded in head light) 2. Can you suggest some auto parts shops to get brand new lights for reasonable price? (even very good quality reconditioned parts shops also fine).

Thanks for the contact numbers machan. I called them on the given number and head lamp is not available with them. They asked me to check with the Dehiwala branch. Anyway I found a head lamp (reconditioned) through one of my friend and the price is Rs. 18,000/=. I am not sure whether it is a good deal or not. May be I can negotiate a little bit. You are right mate. Driving daily in Colombo with a third party insurance cover should be stopped. I will get a full insurance cover when the next salary comes

I am not exactly sure whether the brake pads are responsible for the accident. But I felt like brakes didn't respond fast enough. At the time of accident speed was around 40 Km/h. So, it could be due to worn out brake pads.

Thanks all for your support in choosing the brakepads. Unfortunately today early morning, my car met with an accident and now it needs the replacement of front driver side head lamp (crystal light) as well. Any idea how much the head lamp will cost? No full insurance cover. So I have to pay it from the pocket :sad-smiley-017: :sad-smiley-017: :sad-smiley-017: Below is the actual image of the damage.

Hi All, I am about to replace the front brake pads of my Lancer CS1. I have checked the price from Unit#d Mot#rs and they sell it for Rs.14,800/= However I was able to find after market products around Rs.4000/= from other places. Is there any real difference exists between genuine Mitsubishi brake pads and after market products? Is it still safer to go with genuine Mitsubishi brake pads when considering the price?

Went to Mr. Dhammika's engine tuning place at Cotta road and done some scanning + tuning. Let's see the outcome tomorrow morning at the cold start.

Yes, it is an automatic gear box (not CVT). But I don't think it is a transmission issue. But I am not much in to Automobile stuff. So, no idea whether there is something to do with transmission. Anyway no issues with gear shifting. It is very smooth.

Last tuneup done by Toyota Lanka in December 2012 (6 months back). They replaced all spark plugs, throttle position sensor and also completed a full throttle body clean up + injector nozzle cleanup.
