  4. dnt keep hopes on D*MO for osrams! I bought the last 2 pairs of osram cool blue h4 and that was in end november 2009 at duplication road <actually there were 3 bulbs and i bought 2 of them>, its being almost 3 months and they havnt got down those! They produce the yellowish light mixed with white and CERTAINLY BETTER THAN THOSE BLUE COATED BULBS!
  5. thanx guys! Thought of checking the suspension at ma* cit*! Are they ok or any recommendations?
  6. is there a time limit to change shocks? The last i changed shock absorbers was in 2005! Replaced all four with brand new KYB. Just wanted to know whether is there a time line for it! Tanx in advance!
  7. do an engine tune up at Am*... when they plug the Consult II to your car they will diagnose it!!!
  8. At last i've thought of giving a try by myself by pumping Nitrogen! normally i pump 28psi all around my 185/70 R13. shall i pump the same amount of Nitrogen or do i have to pump less?
  9. i dnt like their attitude! Once i went to get a set off tyres and i wanted a set of bridgestone<not the japanese> and they were out of stock and he was recommending some chinese bullshit and ive never heard that name before, and he was almost ready to change saying badu hodai mahattaya! And few months back i changed my cv joints and for safe side i went for an alignment and they said there is some play in tyre rods and cant do the alignment and he wanted me to replace it at ravee***, then i said no and went to ma garage to get it checked and to see there were no play as such!
  10. tanx for the info mate! When i checked the tyre sizes on the above link it gives a slight percentage as difference! And yeah the height was also worried me but still i didnt have an issue about it! Thanx alot again! I Really appreciate!
  11. Thanx guys, il try to get it done at pitstop! Bdw how much do i have to inflate the tyres? 26,28 or 30 psi.
  12. tanx mate! Will check out if there is no curfew today!
  13. I replaced my 165/80/13 tyres with 185/70/13 and they did a wheel alignment and balancing! Now the steering wheel possition is not straight and i feel the car is pulling towards left hand side! Tyre pressure was equal on all tyres! Can anyone recommend a good place around dehiwala, wellawatta who can do a good alignment! <a computerized one> and whats the tyre pressure i should inflate? Regards
  14. Any idea about the macfoil. because one of ma friend said that he used it and it was ok but not 100%.
  15. Nope he can downgrade the ECU and he will claim around 25km/l as his allion does.

    A20 Allion

    http://img682.imageshack.us/img682/2408/01012010t.jpg this was an allion which i saw on the mosque last friday!!!
  17. When ever i see an allion, nihal comes into my mind! He is more like a politician giving unrealistic goals...
  18. its all for elections! Nobody cnt fool people by these kinda things coz we need a free market float for fuel prices! Bdw there is rumour going that the govt is gonna reduce the vehicle duty to 100%, any idea?
  19. haha man! Bdw if an allion does around 17 to 18 in city it really worth to dump 4 to 5 million to get an allion, is he talking about the new allion? The nze260!
  20. the engine is 1800cc coz one of my uncle has the kr41 and the kr42, the driver of the kr42 said me that it does around 14 without ac though its been a manual i really doubt that km per litre! And most people say kr41 is bad on fuel!
  21. I went to an ioc station in kohuwala just to chk the tire pressure after a car service and saw a 3 wheeler guy pumping N into his tuk tuk and i was like suiciding on the spot coz i went there to fill the tires with normal air whereas these fella was tryna show of with his N filled tuk tuk!
  22. is it a white coloured car? I think once i saw a diesel fb15! May be the correct model should be sb15 IMO
  23. sb-14 is the diesel one, fb-14 is the petrol 1500cc, b-14 is the petrol 1300cc and there is another one called fnb-14 which is all wheel drive car hope this helps, IMO petrol engines are easier to maintain!
  24. when compared to soluna the bluebird is the opposite coz it has a good comfort, power etc but i doubt on the fuel consumption, and when appraising a diesel car be mindfull coz if the seller knw that u are new to cars he will play on u <one of ma best buddy got caught to a diesel nissan pulsar> and what ive heard is cefiro, bluebird parts are relatively high cost than others! So why dnt u settle down with a petrol sunny fb14 or a even a corrolla would be ok to go with! <u can get a english plate for 1.2 million> another small advice if u are to go for an auto gear dnt go for 1300cc coz ive experienced less pulling power on my b14!
  25. My Fb14 does around 8 to 9 and its an auto one, still i feel that it can do more but facts such as, 1. I have to reverse in a 10 feet wide road to park the car so it takes more fuel 2. Once in a while aggressive driving to be on time and you may be having some unique facts as such so identify those and try to minimize things!
