Hi Guys, Am going to restore my father’s 1989 model Honda CD125 Twin bike. Does anyone know where I can get a owner’s manual or workshop manual of the same. Thanks & Regards.

Hi Guys, I have an Idea to buy a Totota ProBox wagon. It comes with the intercooler turbo commonrail 1400 CC diesel engine. Does anyone uses this model? What is your pros and cons about this car? since it is not much familiar vehicle. Thanks & Regards.

Yes, ebay has but it's more than 2K.

Guys, Can someone help me to find a rear door badge for a 1996 KIA Sportage? I've searched in several locations (Darley Rd, Panchikawatte) but couldn’t find any. Thanks.

Good day to you all, I have noticed that most of new Honda vehicles come with a puncture kit in the boot instead of having an ordinary spare wheel. I suppose puncture kit helps to re inflate the tyre and a country like SL doesn’t suite this kind of a solution, since if it is a total tyre failure it wouldn’t be a full recovery job. Pls share your ideas. Regards.

1980 Datsun Cherry Coupe which is the same as a Nissan Pulsar

Does the new Sportage comes with Diesel? If so it will be a great deal. Congrats!!!

Thanks Mate, Mine (bro’s) it’s a tar coating which is not dried out as yet. Good luck

Just have a look under wheel arches whether something is applied in black? By default it comes in body colour.

“kmeeg” also confirmed the price of immobilizer was 7500/- hope they are finding so many ways to cheat people!!! “kmeeg” – Just a small Q – did they apply any undercoating to your car (tar kind of a thing) locally? During the argument with their AGM he asked me not to use the “Cheating” word without knowing the reason of same. Am happy to see that people are repeating the same word over and over.

I also went through the same hassle during last week and had to blast their so called AGM – “Lianol” on the spot. They are nil in customer service and doesn’t know how to satisfy a customer, even the fault is on their side. They are really demanding on customers had to fight for the buck we have already paid. They are willing to pay back if we cannot wait till they deliver the vehicle! that’s their policy. I’ve placed the order (for my bro) in first week of April and promised delivery date was 25th June. Up to 25th of July they have extended the delivery date by telling us several reasons (delay in delivering engine & gear box from Japan & fixing 'Immobilizer' ect.). Got the vehicle to my hand finally on 8th Aug. There’s no choice for fixing the ‘Immobilizer’, since its factory fitted and we have to pay whatever the price they quote. But FYI I paid only 7500/- in mid July. I’ve got caught to the last tax revision and had to pay 125K extra. I don’t think that they can deliver your car on the promised date, since there’s no on time delivery records in their past. We cannot blame the vehicle because of the stupid management Unimo has.

Guys! any update on the project D

Not me, mine is black.

“Simplelife” Don’t know whether it’s me, you saw at the petrol station . According to RMV we will have to go with the existing plate with the letter “D”.

Any idea how does RMV calculates the conversion charge? since I haven't got it registered yet and what are the required documents.

I’ve done a diesel conversion to my Sportage recently, using the same manual gear box with the new Mazda R2 engine. In terms of performances it does very well in fuel + pulling even without Turbo. The only difference you may feel is the vibration and you can overcome that by doing a perfect mounting job & using good silencer flexible ect.. (Hope you can use the same Radiator? Pls consider about the hose side of your new engine.) I will PM you some places where you can find good engines with warranty.

Check with U & H wheels in Slave Island. thay did a good job for me. and can borrow a temp wheel set untill the job is finished.

Pls don't take this as funny!! just sharing with youll some photos of an accident Prius in SL.

Try Auto Base/Maruchi @ Wijerama or you can buy genuine spares from CarPlan. you may call that person which I gave you, he has lot of contacts.

Make sure to take the sample and go to findout same grill, since FB14 comes with different types of grills.

There's a professional who attached to KIA agent in Sri Lanka. I cannot publish his name and contact details in the forum. Up to you to find out.

There’s a possibility to do a touch up insted going for a full paint job. Just check with sp***MEC @ Hunupitiya road, Close to Gangarama Temp.

Suggest to do a full Diagnostic test with the agent (TL). It’s bit expensive but worth of doing it @ the initial stage.
