MV-5

I think it is better to go for a genuine one, at least better brand like NGK. This is a very important part of ignition system(correct voltage should be propagated to plug without any drop or variation). My simple advise is "dont put any Taiwan part on ignition system". i have my own experience (did this mistake once).

i think you might have seen this

I think it is normal, always in my car it shows 12.7V or 12.8(keep stand still for few days) , if i try to measure it once the i have returned from a few kms drive and just after the engine switched off then it shows 13v.

i am sure that among these 3 vehicles Axela has the the best handling. more: ZY-VE (VVT) engine produce 114hp (just at 6000rpm, not 7000+). if you are willing to go for a auto then it is a triptronic. i think ground clearance is not so lower (at least it should be 150mm, but not sure). parts are freely available. better look :-) (personal preference)

Thanks bro, I forgot to ask one question, what are the countries of origin of passats that we have here. (just like swift , do we have indians(should be avoid) or.... you know what i am trying to ask :-), )

This is about VW Passat (2000 to 2003 YOM)- sedan(not interested on HBs) 1. what are the different models that we can find in sri lanka (based on features and engine capacity and etc...Ex: 1.8T,some ads it says something about B5). it would be great if you can provide some comparison between models (roughly) based on following factors 1. handling and performance(you may compare this other makes just like Audi A4,BMW 318i) 2. fuel economy 3. parts availability 4. and probable market price for (2002 YOM manual in good condition) and your recommendations Thanks.

is it somewhat related to X grade and G grade that we know?

I am also interested on this question. and, Zambo please allow me do add one more question to your thread(assumed that permission was granted :-) ). is it possible to find any "Axio GT" in sri lanka?

thanks bro, copied that.

ODO = 110K km approx. yes it is a Power steering. PS fluid level is ok. Thanx Sylvi for your quick response and well noted. Still i am waiting for more inputs from other experts specially who has faced this sort of handling or steering problem.

Vehicle: KIA RIO, 2002,Manual,1500cc Problem: when try to steer the car it response unexpected way. even in a straight road when i try to turn (move) the vehicle bit into left or right,vehicle turn(move) twice or more than it is expected. problem cannot be always recreated. but within a few km drive at least driver can experience this once or twice. Vehicle condition: wheel Alignment done recently (rechecked again). service has been done properly.power steering fluid level is ok. no strange sound.no check engine light. break system condition is fully checked and it is ok. please advice me (for next steps), and same time it would be great if you can specify the places that i should go to an inspection on my vehicle.

yeah, thats right,main advantage of 95 octane is reduce the pre-iginition knock.

shall we continue thread http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/12113-carina-211-si-my-road/ instead of duplicating the same topic.

thanks for the response. ok bro,i would talk about CAF replacement with m***a motors at my next 5000km inspection.

Have you changed those cabin air filters ever (from m*z**a motors or any other place)?

@poscher,Kawz Thanks for your valuable comments.

Where is the cabin air filter/s located in Mazda 323, YOM 2000 (BJ6P)? (Does it have cabin filter/s)?

theoretically it is 0.

pls read #10th post

Do you think that the reason for your car starting problem is "Injectors". then i think it is better to go for a Ultrasonic injector cleaning. try D*mo or A*nu La*ka.

try Ma*na motors pepiliyana, expensive but i think they have good reputation about this kind of troubleshooting. i know that some members have bad experience about their charges. please wait until other members comment about this place.

Nimz77, got fixed? what was the fault? please update.

ultimately we got a new member who knows everything and filled with strong attitudes . this is my first and last post under this thread.
