  1. Thanks for all your valuable inputs. Can anyone suggest a good electrician near Maharagama, Kottawa, Homagama or colombo sub urbes.
  2. Hi guys, Thanks for the quick response. Well, will that be a hectic task to replace the ECU? How to be sure it s a problem of the ECU at first place? Any recommended place to go? How much will the cost be? And the engine restart only happend once. And that time the vehcile was moving at arroung 40kmph. (Strange isn't it?) All the other times I had to restart manually. @CJ5 - No. When it starts, it keeps on idle RPM. Which is arround 800-1000.
  3. Hi Guys, I own a Perodua Kelisa (YOM 2008), which I bought few months back. I have undergone her with computer assisted diagnostics when I was buying and she was clean. Few weeks back, it has stopped while I was in traffic, when I was stopping and trying to pull at very short time intervals. This happens only once in that day and the very next day, the same incident happened twice. I was bit worried and brought the vehicle to the mechanic I used to. His diagnosis was that the injectors might be blocked; so that I have asked him to perform an injector cleaning service. I have replaced all the three spark plugs as well as the throttle body too has been cleaned. I was a happy lad after that since the engine was so smooth after the service. But it stuck me again y'day. I counted and there were 6times in just 10-12km distance. And also it happened once when the speed of the vehicle is about 40kmph, and the engine started again on its own. (Will that be possible?? It's an Auto Transmission car.....) I brought the vehicle to the same mechanic and now he is also puzzled about this. He checked the idling RPM and told me that there is no issue on that end. He asked me to check the battery and it was checked at the same day. The battery is keeping well and the charging mechanism was good and confirmed by the battery technician. As I told him that the when the above incident happens, even the car radio is also turned off, he is now suspecting that it might be a electric fault. Is there anyone who had the same problem? What might be the issue? Where I might be looking for faults? (I felt like is it something related to the transmission oil, but shifting is ok, even kick down works well). Any recommended place where I am heading to resolve this? Expert advice pls.
  4. Ah... How did I missed it? Anyway, thank you so much Supra_Natural for pointing this out. So what better options do I have?
  5. Hi All, I have searched this forum for posts regarding the new Nomad Zotye II, a.k.a Zotye 5008 (1.5 model), but there were none. Is there anyone who is currently using this SUV? How is it and does it have value for money? I inquired from Unimo and they told me that it will be 1.9Mil for the permit. What are the other good options available for the permit below 2 - 2.2 Mil? BR
  6. I hope so too. By any chance do you know any site where I can see the CIF values?
  7. @Don, Can we get out a single MyVi from UK as we get out cars like Prius etc??? And is that legitimate at the first place? Sorry if I'm bumping into a older thread.
  8. Great!!! This is excellent stuff guys!! Found few cars and had some looks. I might be able to settle for a one for 1.2M. Will keep your expert advises on my mind and thank you very much for the informative advices!!!!
  9. Hi Everyone, As every middle class man's dream in Sri Lanka, I am also hoping to get my first car soon. I have a budget of 1.4M and I think I can go for a decent 2002 Accent GLS. I heard some rumors about safety, fuel consumption, lack of spare parts etc.. as cons, but some of my collegues did recommend me the vehicle with two thumbs up. Anyway, I am here to clear some of my doubts beforehand I do the purchase. First of all, I had a few looks of the car and I am happy about it compared to its cost. Also, I noticed that for a car of that age, would have exceeded 100k on Odo. Will I be looking on some paperwork on engine repairs which has being done when the engine hits 100k by the time I purchase? And most importantly, how is the fuel efficiency of this car. I would settle for 10/11kmpl and will be amazed to see 14/15kmpl. (in an automatic transmission vehicle obviously.) And please shed some light on the grey areas that I have to pay more attention. Since I am preparing for my first vehicle, I hope there must be thousands of things that I need to keep my eye on. Expecting your kind ideas friends. Cheers!
  10. Thanks for the feedback guys! But does anyone knows whether the permits are valid anymore? I mean there were some rumors saying that the vehicle permits will be called out at the end of April.
  11. Hi everybody, Can anyone shed some light on what will happen to the government employee vehicle permits? Will that be continued or is there any news that the government is going to invalidate them in near future? And most importantly, will the newly introduced tax affect to the permit holders as well? Any valid information regarding this is highly appreciated. Peace!
  12. Hi, Thank you so much for the valuable information you guys passed me on my first thread. After being reading your ideas and some other threads, blended with my friends and elders ideas, I was finally thought of going for a Suzuki Alto (Indian). Yes, I hope I can handle Manual Transmission. But now I m lacking information on some other aspect, which is financing my prospective. Any Advice guys? A Lease or vehicle loan? Pros and cons of each? and what are the good organizations which provide cool solutions? BR Udari
  13. hmmmmmmm.... Seems loads of action was around while these few days... Anyway, Any cool suggestions for 1 - 1.2M?
  14. Hi Guys, Thanks for the feedback. Yet I am confused what to buy within my budget. Is it worth if I wait few months so that there will be much better options available?
  15. Hi, I am willing to buy my first vehicle within next few months. Yet I don't have much clues regarding the model which I should go for. But according to my budget (which is 1.1 - 1.2Mn), my friends suggest me to go for a Hyundai Accent or Elantra. Since I don't like driving a shaky 1990,92 toyota or nissan, which is available for my budget I thought my friend's suggestion is a GO. Need some valuable information from you guys. Comparing to the mentioned vehicles, I like the Elantra than the Accent. (Either must be AUTOMATIC Transmission) And pls note the pros and cons of these vehicles and the approx prices for 2000 or 2001 models. YET, If you have any other suggestions for me, I will be more than willing to hear from you. BR Udari
