  13. Hi Friends, I bought a car recently which has a good condition engine. Unfortunately the previous owner has used Castrol Gtx 20w50 engine oil, without any possible reason. When I service the car next time, will it be possible to use Castrol 20W40 instead of high viscosity oil? Will it cause any issues?
  14. Thanks for the assistance.
  15. Hi Friends, My car model is Toyota Corona AT150, which comes with the RPM meter. As I checked the RPM meter was not working from the day when I bought. Is there any cable to connected to accelerator or any sensor I need to check? Tks...
  16. Thanks Friends for the valuable info...
  17. Hi Friends, I need this information in order to assist one of my friends. She recently have come from UK to Sri Lanka and she is a disabled person who cannot use her legs. When she was in UK, she was using a vehicle specially modified for her with hand controls. She have an intention to import a similar modified vehicle from abroad (UK, Australia or Japan) and use in Sri Lanka. Does these kind of vehicle import have any tax exemption or reduced tax? Tks, Nimalshi
  18. First of all you should say what is your vehicle is.... Because interms of cost painting a motor bike will cost less than a bus.... Also cheap compromise quality most of the times.....
  19. Understood. Thanks.....
  20. We drained out all the oil and poured Caltex Powersteering Oil. But still the same. Mornings it is very easy. But when the car heats up the steering getting tighten and starting to whine loud.
  21. Thanks guys for your feedback.... This is a great forum I have come accross with the valuable info. Continue your service to the automobile industry in this land full of Makkabases like him and idiot customers like me.....
  22. Yes. I do understand. The issue was my technician misleaded me that STR was the best powersteering oil suited for old Japanese vehicles.
  23. Thanks Guys. I'll change the oil and see.
  24. Thanks for the assistance. Is there any viscosity range I need to check when buying the power steering oil? For example engine oils like Castrol GTX 20W50? Because when temp increases, it gets harder, shall I buy a higher viscosity one?
  25. Hi Guys, Thanks for assisting. There are no squealing sound when turning. But in the morning it is very easy to turn in 1000 RPM at idle. But when the car gets warm, the pump starting to whine when turning and steering gets really hard around 1000 RPM at idle and when you accelerate to 2000 RPM it gets little easy but the whining sound gets louder. Power steering fluid is STR brand red colour one. Is there any PS fluid cooler system or idle up in the power steering units in these model vehicles?
