Hey guys, Trust u all can help me in this. This happened few weeks back suddenly and now happens on and off... The car tends to stop when i'm reversing it to a slope.. Whenever the engine stops it's impossible to start... feel like fuel gets cut off... But when i push the car a bit forward from where it was and then it starts in no time... (This is not thallu start by the way)... This is what i experienced.. Really cant find any faulty since on the run it's so smooth and has never stopped in traffic or on way... It's just that it stops when i reverse to a slope.... I checked if it was the sensor near the wiper motor but it's not the case... Recently replaced the petrol filter and did a injector clean up as well... But this prob happened before i did these... Really appreciate any expertise comments... Thanks. Cheers...

Hi MiniAce, Could you forward me the details as well regarding the 1998 SPI enine? Thanks

Hi guys, Hope you all can help me in this. I'm planning of buying a second hand 2003 model ssangyong Rexton jeep. The market price is aroung 3-3.5 mil. Since this is korean assembled will there be spares to buy? Also does the new rexton spares match with this, since the outer appearance looks exactly same as to the brand new available in market. Appreciate your comments.. cheers..

Hi Guys, What are your comments on this model? It's really hard to find one to buy even... I dont see any adverts.. Is this a good motor? Spares available? What's the market price? Cheers...

Hi guys, What do you think of the Peugeot 206 model.. Is this a reliable car? What about the spares and maintainance cost? Also fuel consumption and second hand market? I saw few vehicles ranging from 1.25 M to 1.55 M... I'm expecting to use it for about 2-3 years... Appreciate your comments... Cheers...

Hi Guys.... Trust you would share your ideas with me... The topic says it all. Is this a good jeep? I heard it's a 2.5L diesel turbo? Whats market price and how reliable is it? D*MO is the agent i guess......

Hi All, Need to know your recommendation on adding ##### (additive) to a mini metro/ any engine? Will this increase efficiency and durability? Have any one tried this? Apprciate your comments.

Hi guys, Need your feed back on this...... What should i look in to before fixing? Currently im using 10 inch wheels with no disks in front.. Will it cause ball joints and etc replacment very frequent?? Please update...

Hi GMI, I checked every thing in the list above. Recently got a 74 degree and replaced also. A/C works fine and the condensor does'nt get hot even. But the only problem is the heat level goes brond half level and stops at a certain point. Also this happens only in day time. I replaced the water pump recently too. The prob is the temp rises beyond half only when i turn on A/C in day time. The only factor to look at is the radiator. But that is cleaned recently as well. Just need to know whether it's ok to run like this neglecting the increase in temp beyond half. I have an smiths temp guage thus don't know whether there is an faulty as these guages are pretty old. Also what is the Ampere level of the alternator which comes along with the A/C fitted engines?Is there enough capacity to charge a battery when A/C, Lights and Stereo is switched on. This is coz most people say that the alternator which comes with this engine doesn't charge properly and you should go for a Nissan march 80 amp alternator. Is this the case?

Hi Nira, Will it be possible to have a quick word with you regarding this? My T.P - 0777 826592

Hi nira, Are those belts reliable coz i found a belt from panchikawatte that place i think and the A/C guy said it wont last more than couple of hours. Also it dint look like the other belts you get (I mean it looked like pure rubber). I cant exactly recall what you call that type of belts. Would you recommend the belt you are reffering (i mean usage)??

Hi guys, Nees to know a place to buy the small belt which comes for the alternator and compressor? The belt size is 22. For most minis 23 is the belt size and im goin through tough time to find this. Looked in panchikawatte and at cosmin and sumana. Guys any place that i can find this for sure?? Appreciate your response soon

Hi GMI, Will there be any kind of impact for the performance of the engine by using any of these compressors?? I mean the compressor model you get for 1000cc and 1275 cc is same rite ?? Or is there any differance?? Can overheating occur due to a default in compressor??

Hi All, Just want to know if there are several types of compressors which comes for the Mini. I mean do you get a difeerent type compressor for mini 1000 model and 1275 model ? If so how cam you identify?? Appreciate all your comments
