Chinese are going to take over the automobile industry for sure. Tesla who was considered ground braking is shying away from the promised small EV and moving to Taxi cars as the competition is too strong. Then comes Chery with this small EV SUV. Looks like a Mini G Class / Jimny but is fully electric.· 4 replies

Interior Specialists? Every time I go over some bumps my seats squeak quite loudly and there is a massive rattle of a nail undone coming from inside the dashboard, anybody got any suggestions I could go to? My usual mechanic just said "turn the radio up"· 2 replies

I was watching a Yangwang U8 struggling to make it up a muddy hill on Youtube. I was wondering why cant an EV be more capable off road than an ICE vehicle. Given the fact that this behemoth has 4 individual motor on each wheel it should be able to direct power to the wheel that has more grip and stop power to the slipping wheel. Cant be rocket science right?· 3 replies

I woke up one day and I now want to buy a W140. The brain works in mysterious ways. It definitely doesn't understand the concept of money since I am nowhere near affording one.· 2 replies

Question
The Don
A friend drives a 2002 NissAN Sunny FB15 Super saloon auto gear. Recently the auto box was repaired, but since then an interesting problem has developed which is probably not connected to the gear box issues.
The car is perfectly stable most of the time. Idles nicely at 900 rpm with the AC on.
But when you drive for a while and stop with the gear in D sometimes the idle just suddenly drops and the car stalls
If you put the car into the reverse gear the same happens (this is from a standing stop)
This behaviour is also observed when the gear is in neutral.
Now a number of mechanics have tried to repair this and often they find it difficult to reproduce the problem. The last Lal Alawatte said he had replaced "some sensors" (my friend is not technically minded) and the car was ok for over 2 weeks. Then the problem returned.
When I had a look at the she was able to demonstrate the problem in the above scenarios (so clearly she hasn't gone cookoo).
Since this has already been taken to a number of mechanics I wasn't sure what to suggest. Any of you guys had the same problem or any ideas?
