100k is pretty reasonable since lancer ex rack cost more than 300k from agents

sorry mate I didn't took any pictures. But from outside there is no visible defect. fault is inside the steering motor and I came to know that it is common problem in EPS in Sri Lanka due to our road condition.

thanks I will try get down one from a friend in singapore

I took the car to a mechanic and they said it's beyond repair and I have to replace it. Does anyone knows where I can find a reconditioned steering rack. Agent said it will cost about 3lacks.

On mondays I usually leave kandy around 3.15am and arrive Orugodawatta around 5. but in day time it usually takes more than 3 hours and public transport takes more than 4 hours.

So how was your car? performance and ride comfort?

He is not in hurry to purchase a car. So in case a car will be available for sale it's better to know about the car before buying

Thanks for your explanation. Finding one will be the problem because there aren't many for sale

a friend of mine looking for second hand car around 3-3.5 million and saw few advertisements for mentioned cars (post 2010) around mentioned price range. I'll search the forum but couldn't find any information about those cars. So if anyone having experience about those cars please share your opinion. Is those cars worth the money being a newer cars than Japanese cars that he can buy for that range. how about the agents, maintenance cost?

I will check that. Thanks

Thanks for reply. As you mentioned I'm from kandy so i travel on pretty bad condition roads. Yea I replaced the Tie rods as well. I did that from different garage not from the agent. Inspected technician said rack ends and tie rods are fine and no need for change but I changed that anyway on agents technician advise. I will visit the agents again and get a inspection done again. I will update the thread after the inspection

I have 2008 lancer ex which I brought about 1.5 yrs back. about six months after I brought it some rattling noise came from front suspension system. So I took it to the agents and they said the problem is with the stabilizer bar links and they replaced it. when we did the test run after fixing majority of the noise but there were little noise. The technician said it was the rack ends and it also need to replace. So I replace the rack ends after about one month. But sadly noise was still there. Now the noise has become clearly noticeable and annoying. It only comes when driving slowly on rough roads. I think it is due to damaged steering rack because when I going through the pot holes i can feel the vibration in steering wheel. Also I saw in a E****ri forum someone said it was common problem of lancer ex. So what is the opinion of you guys? Where I can get proper inspection? If I have to replace the steering rack where I can buy it other than the agents.( buying from the agents gonna cost me a fortune). Thanks in advance guys
