Like I have mentioned on my original post. Fix the root cause. Cleaning is only a temporary fix. Many have got through this issue by fixing the root cause. PM for the garrage contact.- 124 replies

technically it will be a brand new engine since all four pistons and rings will be changed. my guys has repaired around 4 GP1 with same issues and he was recommending to replace the rings. it took two days for him to dismantle the engine and install the new piston. tek lanka at panchikawatta import genuine parts and i got it from them with warranty. after the repair i went to stafford and did a scan (did not mention that i did the repair) the report was perfect. i again did another scan after 2000km and no oil clogs. i have been to the ketharama place for service once and they are good, it is the customer service that i am overwhelmed about however the price is pretty hefty though. I always like my cars to be managed by one guy so he knows throughout the system.- 124 replies

I am glad you went for the permanent fix. However I know that place and they are super expensive when it comes to hybrid automotive in the island. I had my reliable guy at Wattala (ex Nissan engineer from japan) fixed the whole thing for 130k. Now I am on 7000 after the fix and all good.- 124 replies

Glad to hear that PR_CAR. It has been approx 20000 since I have done the major repair. All good so far and during last service did a scan from stafford and looks perfectly healthy. Big time Honda fan ?

It’s up to you if you want to rely on the company. Many of us know what stafford does in srilanka. Personally I have had my go.

It has been 20000km so far since I have done the full repair which is suggested as the permanent fix. Rings clean up temporary only and it will get clotted again dude to the size is the hole been made different. I suggest to be generous and do the full repair and then sell it. Otherwise the buyer will have to go through the same nightmare

all good now.

Check the oil burning marks in the silencer horse. Also is the level of oil dropping gradually? The signs looks like the piston ring issue given with the chassis number details. Having said that I suggest you do a scan to see if there is a miss in any of the cylinders. I came through the same process and finally replaced the piston and rings. Now on my 6000km and no issues so far.- 124 replies

Thank you tilvin and sira. It was a great tip and it fixed overnight lol. I usually pump half tank soon as the alarm comes and it was weird this time. Hopefully it remains the same way. Here you go a virtual beer ? lol
