  1. Go for Michelin, for me best performing tire for SL roads.Even it is manufactured in Thailand it outperforms all the main stream brands.
  2. Don't be so stupid as far as i no there is no car called GLX 2003,plz try to learn how to communicate don't show your stupidity to others
  3. I can remember even in my Brand new 1998 L200 oil drops came out of the dipstick pipe.I showed it to the company during the warranty period and they said it is normal.
  4. Check with your ECU you can get the exact number of programmed keys.Some times it may require the pin number comes with the key(usually for Toyota metal strip with a set of numbers)
  5. I am pretty sure there has to be a mechanism to release the gear in Punto .Different manufactures have different methods. One of my friends uses a Diesel Punto as a day to day runner and averages about 3000km per month without any serious issues.
  6. For brand new vehicles this is possible. But for used vehicles we can't determine an exact price due to the variation of price upon the condition, YOM, millage and the registration number of the vehicle.
  7. Diesel cars are usually more economical than petrol cars I would like to recall that Peugeot 406 HDi holds the world record for the longest distance driven on a single tank of fuel Also diesel cars are more popular in European countries where both petrol and diesel prices are almost the same(some times diesel is more expensive)
  8. Peugeot 407 1.6 HDi City 12km/l outstation > 15km/l spare part prices will be same as original Japanese spare parts. service will cost around Rs 20000 with fully synthetic oil(In my case Delvac 1)
  9. Perform a pressure test on your cooling system.If there is leak it can be easily detected by this test. To**ta L*nk* performed this on my Hilux and only charged Rs 1000
  10. I recommend FBL brake pads,If you use FBK it would damage the disk
  11. Be aware of premature brake pad wear and battery issues
  12. If you increase the height of the vehicle it will badly effect the driving characteristics of your vehicle so just sell your vehicle and buy a SUV!!!!
  13. Problem with automotive LED head lamp is with the increase of temperature(engine heat + heat from the diode) efficiency decreases(intensity decreases) and the life of the bulb also get effected. so when installing a LED head lamp proper cooling system must be used. Original LED head lamp unit will cost you about Rs500000/=. No point of installing cheap Chinese H4/H7 led bulbs because these bulbs will not produce any effective light. Just use normal Halogen bulbs. If you really want to increase the power of head lamps use Osram night breaker bulbs. http://www.osram.com/osram_com/news-and-knowledge/automotive-special/night-breaker-plus-limited-edition/index.jsp
  14. these are not bullet proof so royal family want take the risk they will go for the new RR's
  15. wait!Mercs will be given free for the citizens of Sri Lanka
  16. I strongly recommend you to learn some basic electrical principles before doing it. Most of the vehicles are originally equipped with a relay for head lights to bare the electrical load and to protect the switch

    406 Coupe

    I don't agree with you 406 coupe is totally different from 406 saloon so finding spares will be an issue in SL and when it comes to body parts situation worsens. Regarding the blue colour car I can still remember it dazzling in carmart showroom and I was fantising of driving it, back in 2000 when I was a Kid
  19. My one is 70000+km. I have the calliper pin noise very badly.I don,t know how to fix it.
  20. Since you are buying a used vehicle it's price is already depreciated so the second hand market value want be an issue. As a car Punto is far ahead than it's Japanese counterparts.when you consider maintenance costs if you use genuine parts both European and Jap parts will be same like.
  21. I don't agree with you.usually there is a sump like area inside a fuel tank where the submersible pump is installed so pump will be submerged in liquid even your fuel level drops.But it is not advisable to use the vehicle continuously when the fuel warning lamp lights up.(In case of the VIVA digital fuel gauge starts to blink)
  22. what is the problem with small cars? if they are properly maintained they can handle any road in SL(on road).only problem is the comfort.
