  14. All ek3 had this issue at the bigining and I got my ek3 condencer changed with a bigger one and it was very much effective than before. My repair was done at a place call Air Frost at Pattiya Junction just next to Isara traders. Acutually they were the people who did this conversion on behalf of the agent those days since agent did not handle AC works. In 2000, it cost me 25000 Rs for the total job.

    Help Choosing A Car

    I have used a Trad Sunny long before(In 1997) and It was a very nice car never gave major problems during my usage about 2 years. My one was not equipped with power steering but there are some models you get PS. My one was 1300cc but I think 1500cc version is better.You could find a good shape one below 8 lacks I beleive. You can find ample spare parts and maitenance is not difficult and did about 11 km/Lt in Colombo (In modarate traffic)
  18. As vvt told this place was good some time back. My wife's precvious car (Passo) was bought unregistered from them.at a Good price and a good service at that time when It was located at Talahena.
  19. Always carry a cat on the front seat

    Fuel Tank Repairs

    Ir it is a tiny hole, You may use BELZONA or ARALDITE (2 pack epoxy) to seal insted of welding.
  21. I had a EK3 manual exi and did average 10 km\/Lt in Colombo and outsration It did 12 Km/Lt. I had a es1 too and had the same fuel figures. If I were you I go for a ek since I feel ek is better in driving on our non carpetted road .
  22. My original Dunlop tyre ser ran 45000 km and changed to Falken Thailand set due to price difference and thread has gone after 20000 km by now. Two tyres have worn un evenly(One side) although the alingment is ok. Normally I check alingment in every 5000 km. May be due to a factory defect.Size is 205*55*16
  23. I have never checked but I used for it now. Other than last two bars, other bars reduce uniformly not likr my early es1. In my ES1 meter starts moving after 70-80 km and going down drastically after wards.
  24. My FD1 also same. Last 2 bars disapear in 4-5 Km drive.
  25. From Kanthale to Trinco road is horrible. Pollonnaeuwa Bati -Trinco road is fully carpetted. Only thing is the distance.
