  1. Hi, I am currently looking at a Skyline 250GT 2001 YOM online. Before purchasing, I want to know the common faults of this car and VQ engine (other than CD Player issues) and the parts availability in 2024. If you give me some pointers on what to look for and check (any specific details I should look for) that would be amazing. Also is it mandatory to use 95? Cause I have seen in some other foreign forums, that users have gotten better mileage and reliability through 91/92 fuel.
  2. Hi, Hope you guys are having a good start of the week. I have a budget of 3-3.5 mil. I searched through some ad postings and narrowed down a list of vehicles which I like and fit within my budget. Nissan Primera 2002 (178,500 km) Hyundai Santa Fe 2004 (118,800 km) Suzuki Grand Vitara 2005 [2 door] (175,000 km) Mitsubishi Galant Super Saloon 2003 (131,000 km) I want to know, If these vehicles are worth for that budget? Is it easy to maintain / find parts? (I've had bad experiences in the past not being able to easily find parts for my previous vehicle so I'm really concerned about this) I'm leaning more towards the Grand Vitara or the Santa Fe since I like SUV types. Which one would be the better option out of the two? Or would you recommend any other new suggestions? This would be my second vehicle. I work in a hybrid setting so I don't usually drive everyday. Typical mileage per month would be between 450-500 Km. Fuel consumption around 10Km/liter would be acceptable (But this is a low priority focus since like I mentioned, I don't drive daily). I'd greatly appreciate your input. Thank you.
  3. Hi, I have a Nissan March K11 Automatic, manufactured in 2000. I experienced that the engine stops automatically and the dashboard indicators turns on. Once I change the gear to P and start the car, it works as usual. This doesn't happen very often though. I figured this happens when the car runs on idle speed. I appreciate if anyone can give me any idea to figure this out. Thanks.
  4. My fb 15 auto gear. between changing 2nd to 3rd gear, the engine races for around 2 seconds. It is like some time gap in the Gear.
  5. Hi, I'm thinking of doing a petrol swap for my Nissan SB-14 1996 with a CD20 Engine. Engine is at 285K on the clock and is under compression. Since there is no benefit of saving money on Fuel these days as both petrol and diesel cost the same, is it a good idea to swap for a petrol engine instead of rebuilding the CD20? If so what are good alternative engines for the car? Would GA15 (Engine of FB14) fit without much of a hassle? or any other good alternatives?
  6. Once import ban is lifted is there any way to import a 1997 made Nissan car to Sri Lanka? Maybe with a special permission? If possible what's the procedure? The car I'm looking for is a Nissan 180 SX that needs some repairs. (3.5 Grading in Japan auction).
  7. hi, my car Nissan fb15 2000 model having starting problem time to time, some time its engine cranking but not starting, that time i realize when ignition switch on initially fuel pump not working to initial start up this fault is intermittent i gave direct power supply from fuse bord to the fuel pump for couple of second to run the pump for initial start up then start its starting, any body having any idea about it. is it problem with ECM, thanks very much.
  8. Looking to buy my first car. Please share if anyone has any suggestions or advices. My desired specs are as below. Thanks... Desired model: Mazda familia 323 YOM: 1990 - 1994 Price expected: 1 - 1.5 million LKR Fuel type: Diesel or Petrol Transmission: 5Gear manual preffered Other: power mirrors, steering, shutters

  10. Hi Friends and Greetings for Holiday season. I am stepping down after 5+ years from my reliable Suzuki Swift 2003 (Jeep model) sold due to migrating plan. But plan is delayed. I don't want to spend a lot on a car due to current crisis. Required is basic relative comfort travel 15-20 km. Mostly reliable so you can go somewhere with confident even in night. Also no need of profit but need to be able to get rid of car at short notice+ easy maintenance. Budget prefer about 1.5M max go up to 2M but I want to go as cheap as possible. Also I really like to have auto gears manual if no choice at all. I have done some research and even check few cars here's my list please help with pro and con so make me not make a mistake. Nissan : For my budget Very good condition Trad Sunny is there. But 90% manual so not a fan. Very few auto ones - are they reliable? Then Doctor Sunny diesel is lot cheaper than petrol. Petrol I think overpriced. Why is diesel cheaper? Cars look good condition but people say Diesel Sunny is a lot of problems why? But still not auto but my budget gets me good condition cars. Few Auto gear cars are there as well. Wingroad Auto is there but 2 cars I checked are terrible state so I think most are like that. Good ones above 2 M Toyota: Everything is above 2 Million except for Wagons (18/19 dash) But Manual. And corolla and Corona (17/18 dash) both available Auto and same engine 5A according to a seller. Diesel Auto also available Reliable? Parts? Mitsubishi Honda very few for sale at the budget - Honda Grand Civic is there but a friend tells it's likely to have lot of issues and no one knows to fix it. Suzuki few random Cultus etc but worried about spares. Finally there's a LOT of Hyundai for this budget Sonata Elantra and Accent. Much newer and Auto+ Seems a good deal but what's the catch? A mechanic tells their difficult to fix. What do you think and suggestion friends? Should I conserve budget an go for a classic like Sunny Trad/Doctor and live in pain of manual drive in city? Are Hyundai risky? Or should I just stretch my budget to above 2 M and get a March K11 or a FB14??
  11. Im creating this topic since the last topic about this discussion was back in 2010. What are the best places to get a car detailing done in Kandy. A full interior cleaning with seats removed using good quality products. Prices should be reasonable
  12. Hello! Hope you’re all keeping safe! Yesterday I was driving my moms HT32 XTrail which has 81k kms on it and while driving downhill at the Pita Kotte junction, I felt the usual EV-Petrol shift jerk, a bit intensified and the vehicle started vibrating a bit. Like the engine was sputtering, sort of. And so my obvious reaction was to stop the vehicle. It was then that I realised that the Engine had shut off. I tried restarting the engine and it did, but when I shifted the gear to try and drive it to the side of the road, the engine turned off again. By then the Engine Check light, ESP, Brake Warning and Master Caution lights were illuminating on the dash. I somehow managed to push the car to a side and park it by the side of the road but unfortunately was not able to find any mechanics to diagnose the issue. So I had to tow it back home. Can anyone here please give me any credible information regarding this? I’m quite sure it’s the infamous gearbox issue that played up, and I’m sure it has something fishy to do with the apparent “gearbox replacement” that was done in June of 2020 by Sterling Aftercare. Can anyone give me any advice as to how I should proceed from here on please? Thank you! Hope you all have a much pleasant Sunday than I am having!
  13. Hello , I recently bought a nissan march k12 2002 There is problem , when accelerating a noise comes from the front . The front vibrates and the sound goes like 'brrrrrrrr'. I already showed this problem to a mechanic and he said that its the silencer and its loose. So he fixed it but still the problem exists. Does anyone know what the issue is? Also i heard that there is a place speaclized in nissan march repairs but it couldnt find it. If you know this place pls reply.
  14. First of all sorry for being the least active member on the forum🙃. Now since I used my beloved teana for 4 months I'd like to share my experience + what i did with the car. 1. So when I bought the car it had some minor oil leaks so I redid all the oil seals in the car as a precautionary repair using original Nissan parts which I got from A*W (slightly rip-off price but hey atleast it's "original"). 2. Redid my brake system with refaced calipers and original pads because of a minor braking sound which was noticable at traffic situations. 3. Installed KYB "New SR special" shocks and shock mounts. The new SR special is the only shock nissan recommends for the teana (finding this was a pain in the ass because almost all shops in Sri Lanka has KYB Excel Gs and nothing else) 4.Replaced 3/5 engine mounts using the original nissan parts from A*W. (Didn't knew japanese mounts costs that much😑) 5. Did a engine tune-up + throttle body cleaning since I felt like it's doing a bit less on fuel consumption. 6. Redid all the leather parts in the car back to the factory beige material The shocks were a game changer to the ride quality and now it's actually comfy. After 4 months of usage the car feels nice and smooth, a car which you'll enjoy to be a passenger in but not so much to drive because it's a barge. (Can't do risky moves while driving). Other than that the car drives superb and people think I'm a government V*P since most these cars are used by government secretaries and such. Fuel economy is 7.5-8 kmpl on city and 10-11 on highways. I'm actually impressed by the VQ25s smoothness because I've never driven a V6 before. Still i have much more to do in this car to bring back back to it's factory glory and here's a few I'm planning of doing within the next months, so if anyone can help me in the process I'm much appreciated. 1. Need to find original 16 inch alloy wheels that came for the car since the 18 inch alloys (aftermarket) that looks great reduces the comfort by a significant margin. Current alloy wheel The original 16 inch alloy that came with the car. So if anyone can hook me up with these types of alloys it's much appreciated. 2. There's a slight noise coming from the AC compressor when the compressor clutch is applied so should investigate that before it blows up. 3.Rear passenger armrest wood trim piece is cracked so should replace or find someone to fix that up. 4. Need to do a full interior detailing but can't find a good place that'll do justice for the velvet seats. (Please let me know if y'all know any place). So that's chapter 2 of my nissan teana journey. I'll try to post more on the forum definitely. Special thanks to @MaleCortana for recommending me the mechanic that did everything in the car. p.s i installed an android infotainment system which is me going out of my way to bring the car back to factory glory, but i had to do that since it's a nightmare reversing this GIGACAR out of my driveway. The unit has all the OEM functions (A/C control, CD changer + modern functions like android auto and spotify.

  16. Hi all, I'm looking for a sedan in 2.0-3.0 Mil range. I think Nissan Bluebird Sylphy 2003,2004 (FG10) 1500cc is a decent car for that price range. I was looking for a Corolla 121 but now they are over priced. So I don't think it's worth the money. Anyhow, I am interested on knowing what the best available vehicles within my budget. So any suggestions? Are there any common issues / repairs in FG10 1500cc variant? Is it a reliable car? How's the acceleration of the 1.5 engine? (I'm asking about the power to weight ratio) How's the fuel consumption? Thanks in advance.
  17. So guys I got a 2008 Nissan Teana J32 and I've been suffering from the inability to reverse properly without a reversing camara. The car has some aftermarket reverse sensors that doesn't work properly and because of the sheer size of the Teana it's very hard to reverse properly. So I'm thinking of a entertainment system upgrade and I'm looking for any suggestions that will help my cause. This is the stock entertainment system and I don't want any flashy RGB android 10 system to disrupt this simplistic atmosphere. All I want from this upgrade is good rear visibility and some bluetooth audio for calling purposes. Any suggestion is highly appreciated
  18. Hey guys so this is my first post in the forum and I'm thinking of logging everything I'm doing for the car in this thread. So this is my first car, it's a 2008 Nissan Teana j32 with a VQ25DE engine. The car has 111k km on the clock and still runs smoothly. The previous owner had everything documented (services,part invoices) so I'm a bit lucky there. I'm about to do my first service and I'm thinking of doing a full fluid flush including the CVT oil as well. So my aim is to make this car as luxurious as possible that includes suspension change and anything that makes the ride comfort pristine. Throw me any questions or tips regarding my mission and I hope to update everything happens to the car regularly. Cheers✌️
