  1. That's your car being a law abiding vehicle
  2. Are you sure? It comes with a 1.8l engine, even the 4G18 is 1.6l AFAIK
  3. Guess 90% "capable off road" SUVs in Sri Lanka aren't being used beyond the paved roads anyway, but for some reason it seems to me like a souped up Bolero, something feels wrong with it but I can't put my finger on what
  4. It's cheap to buy, expensive to run... you can feel its cheaply made too. Nissan had to recall a bunch of Navaras because those literally broke in two (google navara broken in half) After the D22 series its not being manufactured in Japan, I guess that's one reason for the poor quality.
  5. That workaround doesn't work. Locking the transmission in 1st or 2nd gear doesn't stop the DCT from slipping when crawling forward - the only viable workaround is avoiding crawling as much as possible, specially when going uphill / when the car is loaded
  6. It would be even more exciting if OP or someone who owns a Vitz actually do all this upgrades and report back
  7. Purely on a technological standpoint though, GDI+MPI combination should trump traditional GDI systems when it comes to reliability.
  8. AFAIK MPI is just another form of what we call "Port Injection"
  9. Well the GDI+MPI combination should give you the best of both worlds, about potential issues only the time will tell I guess Manufacturers doesn't give that much thought about reliability nowadays anyway, passenger safety, fuel economy and affordability seems to be the driving factors of Toyota mass production cars nowadays
  10. Your life ain't complete if you haven't read this yet
  11. Nothing wrong with the car or the scanner, it's just that the ECU doesn't comply to any OBD2 standard protocols, like crosswind said it might be using an old Japanese JDM OBD standard
  12. Has anyone ever heard about this phenomenon?
  13. Obvious choice would be the CS2 EFI as you're still fond of Lancers.
  14. There's no 2008-2011 model as far as I know From 2000-2007 There was the "CS" model, base model of the evolution 7 and it got a facelift between 2003-2004 2007-2017 model is called the "Lancer X (EX)" or "CY" which is the base model of the evolution X So which one is it? CS or EX?
  15. I meant the right fender, is it a mud patch too? It looked to me like a curb rash
  16. 3rd pic - bumper slightly damaged, 5th pic - no bumper damage... how come?
