Hello, Mine is Lancer CS1, 2006, Manual and here I have attached my fuel stats. It normally does more than 11kmpl in colombo and 15/16kmpl in outstations. I always fill-up full tank and log the odometer and other fuel info in this app. This app provides me lots of reports and its very important to track issues of the vehicle(fuel related) as well as compare and improve my driving style. /cc

Hi, I just replaced all shocks and bushes in my Lancer CS1-2006, GL, Manual after 136000Kms. I suspected the bushes might need be replaced due to the sound when hitting humps. But when inspected, all shocks were gone. I chose to go with KYB and bought frond shocks for 19500.00 LKR after the discount and 16500.00 LKR for rear shocks. Didn't buy from agents but I think I got a good discount since the dealer was a good friend of my garage owner. Now I can see the significant improvement of the suspension system and having a steady ride. Need to do a wheel alignment today. /Nuwan

Lancer Or Axio? Update: Bought A Lancer! (Aka The B.r.a.t.t. Thread)
CruiseControl replied to Bracket's question in Car Buying Information
Ok, I'll do so next time. Anyway my problem solved. Cleaning the throttle and body, sensors and injectors fixed the problem. He said no need to replace spark plugs. Now I am having a smooth drive.- 800 replies

Lancer Or Axio? Update: Bought A Lancer! (Aka The B.r.a.t.t. Thread)
CruiseControl replied to Bracket's question in Car Buying Information
Hi Guys, I am having an issue in my Lancer CS1 (2006 manual - mileage - 125000Km) from a 1-2 weeks. When I drive the car for first 4-5kms after starting the following day, it feels I took the foot off from the acceleration pedal suddenly when accelerating(stops when I slow down). Or like 1 or 2 spark plugs stop igniting while going. It is fine after few kms after it get heated properly. I'm taking the car to the garage this weekend but posting here to get an idea before showing it to the mechanic. I noticed that I do not experience this if I start the car daily. What could be the problem, is it with the spark plugs or an engine tune-up needed or some other problem?- 800 replies

Cars become super-luxury again. Simply we have to pay 3 times to buy one. Great. -
Suzuki Maruti Alto Fuel Economy
CruiseControl replied to nels@autolanka's topic in General Automotive
I am driving my Alto K10(1000cc) for 10 months. I have got 14kmpl in city driving and average of 18kmpl in long distance. I am worried that even maruti-suzuki is not claiming 20-21 for alto 800. How did you get it. -
My Suzuki Alto K10 is giving 14kmpl in Colombo and 18kmpl outstation.

Machan I am getting a personal loan(personal loan for professionals), not a car loan. They the bank does not ask for the registration book. What they only need is the salary slip and the salary should be transferred to the commercial bank. No need for guarantors. But I think the company that we are working should be listed in bank. I got a loan last year and they asked me only a salary slip and copy of my degree certificate along with other simple docs like ID copy. Since I am going for a brand new, don't know about the registration year limit.

Yes, I just called my friend and the monthly installment for 1 mil would be Rs. 22,244.00 for 5 years. The problem for me is the requirement of 5 year experience. Seems I have to go for Commercial bank at 14% then.

Is it at a fixed interest rate? It seems a good offer. Is there anything to do with the registration book?

Real Meaning Of Car Sales Terminology

Have you seen 14-xxxx Showroom conditioned car? -
I am also willing to have a loan or a lease and found some information related to interest rates and conditions. Most of the commercial banks in SL offers personal loans at 14% fixed interest rate.(They charge a loan processing fee of 5000 - 7500 LKR) Heard that it is very hard to get a personal load from state banks. (interest rates may vary). Didn't try. St*nd*rd Ch*rter*d bank offers 11% interest rate but it is fixed only for a year. And they charge nearly 2% of insurance amount(what the hell is this?). And the loan processing fee of 5000 as well. I am afraid of non reputed financial companies (specially non-banks). They have soo many hidden charges and they will never state about them until you agreed to sign. And I am not risking my hard earned money/vehicle.

How To Buy A Used Alto Car In Good Condition
CruiseControl replied to janaka077's topic in General Automotive
Do not go for a used Alto. They all are overpriced. Go for a brand new one if you can. But k10 is around 1.4mil. -
