  1. Isn't that latest thread shit is going out of control ? I can really understand the frustration there but no one's here to baby sit anyone. Sheer lack of patience and respect.

      Thanks guys. I just applied it online. Let's wait and see :)

      AGA office asks for it. But not Mandatory.

      You can ignore this year but they said it'll be added to next year's total charge.

      But government to remove it next year.

      So the moral is "Don't pay it this time. Wait & see"

      I asked 'Do u charge this when apply online?', answer was 'No'

      Shape this year. Either it'll go away next year or will e added to ur next year.

  3. I have this Allion 260 2011 with 1nz engine. I know this has compression ratio of 10.5:1 but I read somewhere from 2010 onwards it was increased to 11:1. Can anyone confirm this? Wonder I might have to pump octane 95 if latter is the case. Previous owner pumped 95 anyways.

      what does the user manual say ? or what does the little sticker on the fuel lid say ?

    2. hrm

      Fuel lid sticker was removed. I'm going to read the manual again. didn't find it last time.

       

  4. Fuel prices to go up from mid night today. Reportedly petrol would go up by Rs.20 (both 92 and 95). Normal diesel by Rs. 14 and super diesel by Rs.9. :wacko:

      Idiots spending hours and hours in queues just to save like 1000 bucks!

  5. How was Toyota IST 2007/8 (NCP110)? Trying to replace my Vitz due to low GC.

  6. Can anyone recommend some good service stations around Malabe? Preferably in Malabe-Athurugiriya stretch.

    1. Davy

      Davy

      I used to come to Koswatte (Battaramulla) Laugfs service station all the way from Athurugiriya because I couldn't find a good place around. My father gets the Mazda serviced from Colonial Motors, so not really sure of any new places in the area.

    2. hrm

      hrm

      Thanks Davy. I was going to Dr*ve and Sh*ne @ Thalawathugoda so far and about to move to Malabe.  I might stick with them then.

      I thought all vehicles have a slight pulling power issue when cold.

    3. asrock

      asrock

      Yeah could be normal but to be sure check your CVT oil levels or change it completely.

    4. hrm

      hrm

      Yep will check soon.

  11. Yesterday a large grocery bag entagled one of the drive pullys in my car. Gave kata kata noise and I spent whole morning today removing bits of the bag stuck in the pully connected to starter. Seems it got sucked into the engine bay from road. Has this happen to anyone else?

    1. terrabytetango

      terrabytetango

      Nope. I avoid them like the plague, because I've seen what can happen if they get lodged in the radiator.

  15. I have this Vitz 2007 done 60K. Ran 2000KM after last service. Can see engine oil reduced a bit. Used Toyota 10W30. Should I switch to a different grade?

      Thanks Rumesh. Oil is not that dark. Looks like new.

    3. Rumesh88

      Rumesh88

      Make sure car is parked on level ground when checking oil level. Also when the engine is hot rev up and check exhaust for oil burn smell.

    4. hrm

      hrm

      Sure will check.

  16. Small question. Can we put gear from D to S or from D to B while driving in a CVT box?

      I've done many hills including an alarmingly steep hill with a 1000 CC perodua so I'm pretty sure your 1.3 Vitz is gonna ace it.

      Thanks. I'm actually hunting for a one. Most of the sellers I called doesn't even know their car is CVT. I'm afraid to make a move

  21. Hunting for a 07/08 Vitz. Finding a 1300cc seems very hard.
