It seems like it runs only on front wheels in normal conditions and only switch to 4WD when front wheels start to slip. "In normal operation, the vehicle is front wheel drive, 100%. The drive shaft/propeller shaft spins whenever the vehicle is in motion, as parasitic loss. The rear wheels are turned by the road, which spin the rear differential. It's this way because the system cannot take torque away from the front, it can only send 'waste' torque to the rear. Waste torque is identified by the AWD/TCS/VSCS (All Wheel Drive/Traction Control System/Vehicle Stability Control System) noting a condition such as front wheel speed higher than the rear, or a lateral slip of the vehicle caused by wheel slippage. Once the need for all wheel drive is identified, the computer sends voltage into the actuator which squeezes the clutch pack, completing the transfer of power from the engine to the rear wheels. Once the wheel speed is what the computer decides is correct, or the vehicle instability condition is passed, it removes voltage and the vehicle goes back to front wheel drive. Of note is that there is no center diff. The vehicle is not designed to be full time AWD." http://www.kia-forums.com/2011-2013-xm-sorento-forum/69046-2011-sorento-awd-explained.html

Yes rajila Corolla Dx Wagon is a good car. I do not know much about the car other than to say it is a good reliable car. Search in the forum and you will find discussions about this car. Here are some links: http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/15109-toyota-wagons/ http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/14900-toyota-corolla-l-touring/ http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/13337-toyota-corolla-wagon-ee104/ http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/17132-best-car-for-13m-14m/ http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/15880-best-sedan-car-for-13-lks/ http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/16103-finally-got-money-now-what-starlet-kelisa-110-any-other-im-confused/ Some threads are old, so some price figures may be not valid now. -
Best Sedan Car To Buy Below 12.5 Lakhs
JFLanka replied to shalika7's question in Car Buying Information
Hi rajila, welcome to the forum! wolseley is spot on about that fact. But mind you even a jap vehicle can give heaps of trouble if not maintained properly. So make sure u inspect the vehicle thoroughly before buying. This thread might help you: http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/3430-how-to-buy-a-used-car-in-sri-lanka/ Old Korean cars have a bad reputation for reliability. (Whereas new models (e.g. after 2010) are fairly reliable.) So Yes a Toyota made in 1995 is way more reliable than a Kia/Hyundai made in 2000. Most Korean cars from that era are really showing their age now whereas most japs can still give koreans a run for their money. Good luck with finding a car! -
Heard Addicted(2014) fits that category. Haven't watched it though.

Watched Cinderella Man (1995). A good movie. Its inspired by the life story of a heavyweight boxing champion named James J. Braddock (Russell Crowe).

Definitely the best gangster game I've ever played.. The story line is soo catching that finally i ended up living in the game.. And above all, the ending is soo heart touching i was shocked after i ended the game. U guys should really play it.. I recently downloaded it and if u want i can give u the link. I played Mafia 2 also. Can't say it is as good as Mafia 1 but at the end of the game you can see how mafia 1 and mafia 2 story lines connects.. That was the moment i almost cried..
