  1. Welcome to AL. Q :Could the engine have been over-filled at the last service? the churning of the higher level of oil in the crank case may have caused the extra oil on the breather. rare and hard to diagnose your prob. if you experience an increase in engine e oil level, without the above, check the injector pump for diesel leaking into the crank case. check the oil for thinning/diesel smell. TT.
  2. Hi, and Welcome to AL, You might find it distressing what the owners of your car have to say ,..
  3. Here's a better option, with the same 2C toy engine, get a Town Ace,..?
  4. Enough has been discussed abt the junk sold in our fuel stations.
  5. Park in the shade. the tint film can reduce , but will not prevent or reverse sun exposure. Invest in a car cover. TT.
  6. clean surrounding area with de-greaser and drive for a while.. isolate the leak,
  7. EU car specialists are popping up like mushrooms, look around.
  8. You can't. but you can go to any car interior workshop and get a custom made carpet.
  9. Ask the gents yet?
  10. The agent comes to mind first , and a specialist joint for the VW group is also there in Boralasgamuwa.
  11. The engine may have an un-even run , made worse with the load of the a/c compressor. what is the normal idle speed of the engine after warm up? when did you last replace the air filter? check the ignition system/fuel injection system . and the engine+trans mounts. get nu spark plugs TT.
  12. Also check for loose suspension components/worn joints. get another set of wheels and go for a test drive,..
  13. Stuck closed t valve?
  14. Start by replacing the sparkies and tuning the carb and check/adjusting the timing,. How's the air filter? hope you didn't wash the engine. P.S. you might have a prob passing the emissions test.
  15. ABS has been offers in motorcars since 1978. it will be a greave dis advantage and a loss if you don't have it and silly if you're looking for a car without it 40 years of development later,.. ? when it comes to maintenance, just change the br fluid every 2 years,.. wishing you safe and enjoyable motoring. TT.
  16. Start by checking the level,.
  17. Get the suspension checked , pump up the tyres to the recommended pressure, and avoid bad roads,..
  18. Faulty air flow sensor? and it's wiring. When did you change the air filter last?
  19. Looks like they tick all the boxes !@
  20. Wonder what was removed in the van to do this service? better as the idiot/ qualified mech to look at again,.. It is possible that the top engine cover was removed, thereby mis-directing the gear selector cable when re- installing after the fluid change.
  21. Get 6x9's on the rear parcel shelf and 6' splits on the front. And might I recommend a sub? in the boot?
  22. You'll soon find out their draw-backs. And what is your vehicle?
  23. Both brands are good,..have you thought about upgrading the speakers?
  24. Start by checking the cooling fan operation with the a/c on at idle and the a\c drive belt for slipping?
