  1. Recently my car's (Honda Civic 2010) developed an issue with AC. It wouldn't blow cold air when outside temp is very high. I only get cold air when the outside temp is low, and still it's weak. I checked cabin air filter which is new, and compressor clutch is engaging properly. If the AC refrigerant is too low,I believe compressor clutch shouldn't engage isn't it? (Not sure though). Couldn't check whether the condenser is clogged. However I couldn't isolate the issue. Is this probably because low refrigerant level? Or a leak? Anyways, What's the best place in Colombo for a honda to get this service done? Is Stafford motors any good , expensive? I recently saw bad reviews about them when it comes to repairs. Please share your ideas with a good place to get this fixed. Thanks in advance!

  5. Hi, I own a Honda Fit GP5 2015 S grade (Highest trim level). Today when I'm locking the car from the left door lock button (I've auto folding turned on), I heard this loud squeak noise from the mirror while its on folding operation. But it doesn't have any issues other that that noise (It folds and un-folds in regular speed as usual). Then I checked the right side mirror, and it folds/un-folds without abnormal noise. I've washed the car yesterday. I don't know whether it occurred due to a water leakage into the mirror assy. Do you guys experienced anything similar to this? Thanks in advance.
  6. Anyone know a place to repair / service a Honda Hornet motorcycle in Matara area? Please if anyone know reply me soon. Thanks.
  7. Hi, I own a Honda Civic Ek3 96 car. I'm thinking of replacing its stock headlight bulbs with Phillips X-treame Vision bulbs. It is a halogen bulb which designed in a way to produce 100% brighter light than normal stock halogen bulb. (It says so and awarded as the best bulb) However, I'm not sure which bulb type to chose from. Since I'm planning to get it down from ebay I need to clarify if the below H4 bulb is clearly fit to my car. As per my knowledge H4 bulb should fit to civic 96 and in the H4 it comes both low and high beam filaments. Please help me on this regard. This is the ebay link I'm referring to; Thanks in advanced.
  8. please address this doubts,, 1- is it useless to use eco mode when the vehicle runs on hills (fuel efficiency side) ? 2- is it process with a higher fuel efficiency while inactive Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) ? 3- do we can get high fuel efficiency numbers with cruiz control?
  9. My 1st post in AL I have a honda civic es8 2002 model with electronic power steering and it gives taka taka noise which is really unpleasant According to AL forum and from what I heard, I need to replace a bush(with teflon or nylon, and i don't know what is that bust is about). I called stford and they told, replacing only the bush will not do the work and need some other parts also to be replaced , cost is about 25k with no warranty Called another place in Maharagama (advertisement from hitad) they also told me the same story, bush+shaft repairing should be done.cost is 15k with 1 yr warranty So I want to know past experience from the people who has done eps repairing and a good place where it can be done properly??

  11. This is about the CVT oil change. My neighbor uses a FIT 2007 model which is serviced by Stafford. The maintenance card given by Stafford says to change most of the oils in 10k or 15K intervals. It says to change the CVT oil every 15K I own a FIT Hybrid 2012 serviced by Sterling, Personally I am not happy about their service, but i have to stick to them if i am to keep my warranty. I have asked them about CVT change and they say to change after 30k km, and when the indicator comes up. I am not sure whether they have the correct CVT oil and also little bit worried after what they did with my Engine oil replacement. They used 5w-30m in the first service and 0W-20m in the second oil change. the fuel efficiency in much better now than after the first oil change. I have learned now that the correct oil since this is a new car is 0w-20m (Correct me if i am wrong). Here comes the questions 1 - Has any one done a CVT change in Sterling (I know of one post that says about changing the CVT in Stafford and being void for a Gear box problem on a car with Sterling warranty) 2 - Do i have to change the CVT oil every 15k km, because there are my friends who have not done so but do not have any problem. And also i have learned that Stafford has its own agenda with sales.
  12. This is a bit of a longshot, but has anyone retained the JDM navi/panel stereo in their JDM car? Particularly anyone who has a Gathers (Alpine?) satnav system? Mine came with all the japanese documentations, codes, etc, but for the life of me (and google translate) I can't find the settings to change the damned clock on the thing! This particular system is a crime to let go of- it has handfree BT, but most impressive is the reverse camera has 3 useful angles to chose from...which will be lost if another stereo is installed. Part of me is wondering if these jdm nav systems get their time from the local satnav settings that are hardcoded into the system?? Thoughts anyone? Cheers
  13. I heard that there is a petrol tank oil filter in the cars. So when I should change the petrol tank oil filter? I mean millage? Is there a way to check whether petrol tank oil filter is good or bad? What are the indications that we have to change the oil filter?
  14. Hi All , This is my first post so please forgive me this is a dumb question. I recently brought my first car , a 98 civic ek3 , non vtec manual. I now want to change the timing belt just to make sure. So my question is , is it OK to go to a standard mechanic or do i have to go to a honda specialist to get this done ? I searched in AL and some people have said its better to go to a honda specialist and some people have said that timing belt change is also considered as a routine task so even a normal mechanic should be able to do it. Your inputs are much appreciated as im an absolute noob to cars + i worked my ass off to get this car so i dont want to ruin her
  15. lancer cs1 2002 or Honda civic ES8 2002 best to buy 1.What is it a Low maintenance car? 2.What is the best do on fuel?
  16. My car is EG8 Vtec one. The problem i'm having is, as soon as I hit the gas padel, it kinda boggs until it hits 2500 rpm's (+/- a couple hundred) then it picks up and runs strong. I cannot drive in traffic when the problem exists. Not all the time I see this problem and engine's heat or cold makes no difference. No misfire when I run on highway or accelating and stopped(In neutral) the car. No check engine light and no CEL error codes. I have changed the Dizzy and spark plugs,ECU, fuel filter and checked the timing. Finally swap the engine too with new reconditioned one. But I still have the problem. I have spent more than 2lakh by now. I am going to check injectos bocz I used 2 from old engine, fuel pump again. Your help is highly appreciate.
  17. Hi all ! I have an Insight domestic model & it has come with an "Internavi system" which is completely in Japanese (Navigation/central audio/bluetooth etc...) would anyone know; 1) If the whole system could be converted to English? 2) If not, if at least the navigation system could be reprogrammed to English & put local maps? 3)If the car could be upgraded with an after market cruise control system? All your support in this regard is highly appreciated. Thanks !
  18. Hi Guys, Is there any place in Sri Lanka where I can get a transponder key-cut for Honda Insight? Thanks.
  19. Hi all, can someone direct me where I can buy a pair of dicky shock strut for my eg8, or a place or a contact for someone who does the gas part for my old ones
  20. Hi my Honda civic 2000 model ES1 needs a replacement on its EPS control box. It's a nightmare to find the matching part. Same shape box is available. Numbers are different. Can someone help me find the part or interpret the numbers on the part. At the moment it a real wild goose chase.
  21. I have Toyota Passo 2007 car and planing to sell it and buy Honda FIT Hybrid. Since my maximum budget is around 2.7 M, I can only go for a send hand car. I have seen lot of 2010 and 2011 Honda Fit Hybrids advertised on various web sites for a long period, but they couldn't sell those yet. Does that means "Going for a second hand Honda FIT Hybrid" is not a wise thing to do? Second thing I want to know is, "I heard that honda fit hybrid 2010 first gen models have some issues, is that true?" Third thing "Is it advisable to buy a car with more than 50000Km millage?" Kindly give your thoughts, Thanks
  22. These days im planning to buy a Honda fit hybrid. Im considering YOM 2013 models of above cars. GP1 comes with IMA 1.3 engine, 88Hp and GP4 comes with IMA 1.5 engine, 114Hp… Personally I prefer GP4 because it has a sporty look and a powerful engine than GP1. But I have no idea about fuel efficiency of this two models, Probably GP4 has the same engine on Honda insight ZE3. please share your ideas regarding this two models considering fuel economy and performance. Thanks...
  23. Guys, Is it possible to change the map of a stock media unit in a UK imported Honda civic hybrid? I know it's impossible to change anything in a japan set, but what about UK ones? please share your experience and thoughts. Thanks.
  24. Hi friends, I am interested to buy a motorbike for daily usage such as travel short distance mostly and long distance once in a while. So I have no idea about which type would be most suitable for me because I know little about bikes. I see lots of Indian bikes on the road. But I prefer a Japanese one because its said to be durable, comfortable and long lasting. ( Don't really know though) So my requirements are; - Averagely economical - ( no need to be the most economical ) - Easiness of maintenance - ( Availability of spares rather than how cheaper they are ) - Handling - Ability to travel comfortably especially longer distances - 250cc could be most suitable - medium sized ( not too large ) So please suggest me brands or models to think about and find about. Thanks a lot in advance.
