  1. Hi rangerover, Thanks for directions. I did few things with that work including a tuneup, petrol pump replace and bla bla at toy** lan**. Cost was around 30k , cannot remember how much was for that rack thing. I will try to find the bill.
  2. Hi, It seems I should visit Matara Garage. Can you please tell where it is in Nugegoda? Address?
  3. Dear Friends, Recently my Corolla 121 (2000 Model) has started to give a Taka Taka noice when I drive on any non-carpet roads. I showed the car to To***ta Lan** , They just disassembled and reassembled some thing under the car (may be what they call rack). Then noice was stopped for some time. After around one month, it started again, At my recent service, at Au**o Mi***, they pointed out that my Lower Arm Bushes were not good and I should either repair or buy new. They also told me it would stop the noice. So I went to a mechanic. He told me that noice is not comming from lower arm bushes and bushes can be used little bit more. Further, mechanic told me that, noice is a design issue of Corolla 121 and every 121 start to be noicy when getting old. It is due to a wear of a shaft as he says. According to him only thing we can do is refitting like Toy*** Lan** did. He says it will come again after few months. (Actually I did not tell him what To**ta Lan** did) Do you have any such experince with 121. Is there anyway to stop that noice? At what cost ?
  4. I fixed it up in January. Cost was around 64k at Auxx Mixxj, nawala. I called every where even Toyoxx Lanxx. Toyoxx lxxka directed me to Klxxn Pxxk. Klxxn Pxxk directed me to Axxo Mxxj. It was little bit late when I saw miniace's mail. actually it would have been a good help. Thanks Friends. (eventhough it is too late thank now.)
  5. Ok fellows, I bought a car cover from Arpico taking the risk again. I took the one, which labeled for Starlet and it was too too small to put. Today Iam going to change it to a 110 cover (may be) and put to starlet I'll be able to tell you what happened after using it. my poor car ....
  6. Dear Friends, I have moved to a new place. Now I have to park Starlet EP91 without any shelter. Only protection I see is buying a car cover, but last time I had a bad experience with that. It spoiled the paint. In the internet, I see there are good car covers to purchase. Do you have any idea where I can find a good car cover locally ?
  7. If it's a sludge formation you have to attend it soon. If it's not sludge, no issue. Better have it tested. because my first symptoms were like yours but I was less carefull. You can figure out what's going on just removing the top cover of your engine at a suitable place (A simple thing, will cost u almost nothing) I had a bad experince and following is the discussion, http://forum.autolanka.com/index.php?s...art=#entry86378 It cost me around 60k to repair.
  8. Yes that's it. A huge repair. I did not use fully synthetic oil. Now at the rest in a garage.
  9. Dear Friends, Again I came across a problem, these days are not good for me. Today my Corolla 121 car started flashing Automatic Transmission Issue Indicator and red Oil Can Indicator. Now Iam at office and thinking what to do. I work near the Mxx Cxxx, but I like to find some other place. Do you any other good place near colombo ? Regards !
  10. My wife adds a good selling price to the car, because it is doctor driven.
  11. Hi JadeyBlitzen I'll let you know when I sell the car . Anyway those were not big accidents, but mirrors, scratches, etc etc .. I also can't understand why my wife's car has such frequent accidents.
  12. OK Friends. We'll accept it. Anyway It would be better, If they had informed their high risk criteria at the time of the agreement. Thanks for your comments!
  13. Iam also willing to travel by Train or bus, There I'll get more time to improve my knowledge by reading or thinking, (I can read even standig in a middle of a crowd) My concern is the bomb threat, other wise I would happily use public transport. But in genaral folowing are the concerns of others, 1. Crowded public transport 2. Rude behaviour of conductors 3. Inconvenient behaviour of some passengers 4. Difficulty to keep clean suit and shoe shine 5. Bomb threat In our country roads are not that well, So it is not easy to maintain a good car. Most practical is old 4WD. Roads, transport and social peace should be improved for a better life
  14. Dear Friends, Iam seeking your open minded opinions for the following incident. My wife got F**** P*** full insurence from SL I******* 10 months ago. She had 7 claims so far and all were very clear road accidents. We received claims without worries. But today we received a letter from SL I******* saying .. "They have decided to impose a 20,000/= compulsory excess from the next claim for the period of one year, due to bad claims experience" My Personal View is this, As far as I know, insurence policy does not have such statement. We are not making accidents on our will, but after it happens we have right to claim. I can change the insurence company after 1 year, but to the social benefit, should I take any action againt SL I******* ? (I have the signed letter with me, so I guess it's ok to publish company names here) For your comments please.
  15. Hi Friends, Iam Lost. My tank is empty. Does anybody know where fuel is available (Colombo/Moratuwa)?
