  1. Can't decide it from the brand... unless you specify two models to choose.

    Yes, it's a mess. But it is cheaper... and good as a temporary solution... I mean till you get a good HU...

    I can't recommend a place or brand. Because I haven't used them. But most of the leading car A/V shops have HUs for M3. Easiest way is just grab a Hit@d...
  4. You have explained everything VVTi... A+ post.
  5. Hybrid battery is not for life time of the car... But the life time of a car is technically 1,000,000kms. Manufacturer recommends an engine overhaul at every 250,000km. you can bore the cylinder only three times. So the engine of the car can run only 1,000,000kms. that's the life time of a car.
  6. My choice is FD1. Lancer EX is a good car. Actually better than a Nissan Sunny Or Cefiro.

    you can use a frequency shifter to change the frequency band. Any A/V guy will do this. Or go for a HU made for Mazda 3. There are few models made for Mazda 3.
  8. If you buy it from ebay, like you said. the item will post to your address. The custom will check the declaration and detain the package if they have to tax it. The custom guys will send you a letter to come to them and pay the tax. mostly at the central post office near the Lake house building. There are no clearing agents involving in this transaction. This is just parcel post.
  9. No K12, the ABS light gets on if you are using the spare wheel, or running a tire or two with low pressure. In this case most probably one of speed sensors may have disconnected or damaged while at wheel alignment process.
  10. No. Insight also has a hybrid A/C compressor. The engine should stop even when the A/C is ON and the system is in Eco mode.
  11. Yes, on Friday night at BMICH. I had a invitation. But unfortunately I was busy that night. It is around 21-24Mn
  12. Do you have his contact number? I'm searching a good phone repairing place too.
  13. If it is just the bulb, it will come to home. If it is complete head light you have to pay a tax. It depends on the model and the price. And specially depends on the custom agent. Roughly it should be around 1500.00
  14. Nothing special when servicing a hybrid. It is better, if you can use 10W-30 oil. But most of the cars use 20W-40. CVT oil is to be replaced every 25000kms. Use only Honda CVT oil. That can be purchased from the agents. (This part is for Hybrid haters- Compared to Honda Fit's 15000km CVT oil change, hybrid is better.) Oil filter C-809 Air filter A-892 Cabin filter AC-808E ( VIC part numbers.) So you can service your Insight at your usual service station.
  15. City wheels center. There are two shop there this is second shop from the junction.
  16. Yes, It is around 1.2 m.
  17. Actually.. 15 alloy wheels, 15x5 1/2J with 175/65 R15 tyres are for G and L grades 16" alloy wheels, 16x6J with 185/55 R16 tyres are for LS grade. But I don't think it would be a problem to use these two wheels with the recommended tire sizes whatever the grade.
  18. I saw a set that look like this, at Wattala. At the tire shop facing the old Negombo road in fron of Wattala Carghills.
  19. I think this methode is only to check the instrument cluster. I can't find the voltage reading in Mazda 3.
  20. thanks pal...
  21. Even it looks like a mechanical type injector pump it has an electronic control to reduce the emissions. Mostly an electronic governor and a electronically controlled valve to limit the fuel flow. And that unit you found is to analyse and control the system.
  22. Mostly this kind of HUs have two antenna inputs. One for TV and other for radio. Check the radio antenna (mostly an arial) connection.
  23. Does this scanner works with Toyota? What is the model of your Toyota?
  24. Go to Myt00ls
  25. I used a 2.5L first generation X type few years back. Ride quality is best with the original 17" wheels and superb stability. Fual consumption is 5-6 Km/l for city and 7-8 km/l out station. It was a very reliable car. But very expensive to maintain. We sold this JAG two years ago and so this beauty last monday at Rajagiriya.
