  1. FD1 pros, 1. Good pick up and very good handling. 2 Good leg space and the boot area. Cons, 1. Fuel in city 8-9 km/Lt out station 10-12 KM/lt 2. Ground clearence is low. 3. Ride is bit bumpy on un even roads due to low profile tyres and hard shocks.
  2. It can be repaired by introducing a nylon/teflon bush but won't last for a long period . Best thing to replace with a good condition used rack which cost aprox 35000 Rs.
  3. Yes it is 100% correct. If the new owner is a tax payer, No problem.
  4. Mazda is a good reliable japaneese make. Spares are freely available. My wife used a 2008 Demio and did 10-11 km/Lt in Colombo driving.Basically it is a trouble free car.
  5. Upul is good for ek3. Waruna and Rohan at Kesbewa are also good. If u need contact details pl send me a mail.
  6. My openion is also Sorento or Santafe. They are very economical with all the options.
  7. As kush said, Civic will come from Thai in near future.
  8. Check whether the both the fans are running when AC is on.
  9. I was thinking to go for a SUV and looked for CRV since I am a honda fan for last 15 years or so. But When I saw the interior and the exterior of Hyundai Santa fe My idea was changed and I went for a Santa fe. Whether it is diesel or petrol is not a matter since price difference is very little but santa fe has 7 seats and too many options than CRV.
  10. Have u all seen Hyndai santa fe 2013 ? It is beutiful.
  11. many happy returns of the day bro.
  12. the best glue is Plastic Devcon (2 pack Epoxy) If you could find.
  13. Before applying silicon, you have to clean the inside. Better you go to delkanda area and get it done. Not too much costly. I got my head lamp done for 2000 Rs.
  14. I also think the same. It is very reliable and doing very good for last 25 years or so. Only thing is interest rates are more or less the same as established private banks (e.g.Sampath)
  15. Dear asanga, Why don't you go to the agent or any other honda specialist and sort the matter out?
  16. How left side worn out more than the right side if you have changed both side pads at the same time?
  17. If that is the case ,change the gas cut as soon as possible and check any blocks at the radiater.(it may need to phase the surface when you put the new gas cut)
  18. This could happen due to the inferior quality of the brake pads or accumilated dust.
  19. Not a single car manufacturer makes lub oil. They just purchase from oil makers and put their name. Therefore You may use any recognized brand and correct viscosity.
  20. I have used a EK3 for about 4 years. It gave me only a over heating issue due to a faulty thermostat valve and the sensor other than that it was perfect in all respects. My one was a brand new exi version and no air bags and no ABS but you may find vti recon versions with all the options for your budget limits i hope. I don't no about CS1 but EK3 is love to drive, handling, comfort and cornering is much better than the later version of civic (ES series). No complains about the pulling power of EXI but may be better on Vi model. Fuel consumption was 9-10 km/Lt in Colombo daily running in the morning(Less traffic) and afternoon(more traffic). Out station 12-13 Km/Lt (Colombo-Kandy). Some says it should do more in out stations but depends on your drving style. When i sold my one in 2004, It had done 200000 km + and efi engine was perfect.(I did reguler service with out fail)
