  1. Hi all, I am looking for a new vehicle as a daily runner and looked at the above vehicle does anyone have experience of this brand and vehicle in or out of Sri Lanka Looks to have decent specs/looks and warranty for the price it is offered
  2. Hi all, There are several cars up for sale with very low mileages, i was thinking of buying one, does anyone have experience of the vehicle and any known issues
  3. you cant verify through RMV app by paying 150 bucks if you have the chassis number
  4. Also check if Insurer has done valid check of engine and chassis number pre insurance, now thy cant come and say vehicle is invalid ask them for proof of inspection, they cant now come and tell it is illegal
  5. same happened to me with the Audi large banging noise when i hit small bumps, suddenly it dissapeared i checked the suspension system and agents said there are no issues, no one knows what happened
  6. Thanks m8 no it does not have air suspension although it has dampers i was mindful to to get air suspension, it does not suite our potholes
  7. I do not have an eye for photography this is the best i could capture
  8. Hi guys So after 07 long years i have decided to part with my trusty Audi A5, and move on after 130K solid kilometers (bought with 250Km on the clock), I have to say it gave me no major headaches other than replacement of the A/C Compressor. So starting a new chapter with my new Merc E200 2023, hope it gives me the same satisfaction as the Audi. So far the experience is good without the spirited engine of the Audi.
  9. I have been using a W212 W118 and an Audi A5, latter two are fairly new cars bought brand new, all three are maintained by the agents and done over 120K with timely preventive maintenance done. i have owned several Japanese models high end to low end. so obviously the maintenance cost of Euros are much higher if you go to the agents, but the vehicle will be reliable, there are several third party importers who do a fair job in replacing parts at a lower cost. But i do not think maintenance costs are exorbitantly high as many perceive if you can find a properly maintained car.
  10. Yep there is a slight air leak, I got is repaired from a joint at Borelasgamuwa. There were plenty of BMW ans Mercedes Alloy Wheels with sismilar cracks brought for repairs. So far no Issues, in my case it is only a small crack at the edge so i dont think there will be a big impact on the integrity of the wheel
  11. Hi all, Recently i changed my tires due to wear and tear and found out one of the Alloy wheels is damaged from the inside and there is air leakage, can you all please recommend a trustworthy place to do the repair, I did some dent repair for for alloy wheels for a different vehicle from a Borelasgamuwa place some time back and do not remembers the name of the place, they had many Euros that had come for Alloy repairs, anyone who know their contact number much appreciated if you can share the details.
  12. there is a karcher service center in Narahenpita
  13. Does anyone have any idea on known issues of the above car 2017-18model specifically the Battery. I know E300 blutec hybrid battery fails around 80K, E350e batteries has no such issues. is it the issue with liquid cooled battery vs Air cooled battery. Any feedback is much appreciated to make an informed decision
  14. yep you get these small scratch marks
  15. I would advice to stay away from CLA's the build quality is not as good and not good at all on fuel consumption
