It's more of a walkaround than a review, and a good one at that - their camera work is excellent and they cover the whole car, save for the undercarriage. It's too early to properly "review" the Raize anyway, let's give it a year or two so owners can post ownership reviews based on their experience of using it under Sri Lankan driving conditions
-
Now that is what I call reliability

Oooh, thanks for the silver me hearties! Wish you many happy and safe kilometers in 2020! May your engine run like butter; may your brakes stop you in time; may your AC keep you cool; may your paint shine forever and may you reach all your destinations safe, sound and with a smile on your face! Keep revvin'!

Yeah the 3rd party workshop must have made the switch to thicker oil... you'll have to specifically request UNIMO to use 15W40 instead of 10W30
-
I meant the viscosity: since UNIMO recommends 10W30 I'm guessing the first owner used 10W30 instead of 15W40? Maybe the first owner switched to 15W40 when he quit getting the car serviced by UNIMO. It wouldn't matter switching to Val from Mobil but I think it'd be better if you continue with 15W40 since it has been used for years. I guess UNIMO would suggest you to switch to 10W30 - it's their recommended viscosity for the Lancer
-
I'm no oil expert but I don't think switching the brand once or twice would cause much of an issue, I've heard doing it often could lead to sludging 'cause different oil manufacturers use different additives even if the specs are similar Do you have any idea which oil was used before 5 years? what was the reason for the switch to 15W40? I've been using 10W30 (conventional) starting from the first service as per the recommendation of UNIMO, I'm guessing yours was using it too (atleast in the warranty period).

Oh, so you mean that wrong engine information was entered manually (we already know that the engine information is wrong because the 4G63 engine wasn't used on either of the cars) and the "Lancer CS1" part was taken from a drop-down menu? Feels like we're getting a tumble in the messy soup you mentioned
-
Evo X has a 4B11 engine, not a 4G63; CS1 has a 4G13 engine.
-
And entered wrong engine information too?
-
How come it's the opposite? Mazda didn't say it's a male animal about to jump on its prey did they? ?
-
Not just any CS1, a CS1 with a 4G63 engine
-
Now that you mention it, this car does look distinctively femalish with its long eyes and smilish face
-
Now I've seen everything... a 4G63 transplanted CS1 turned into an evo X
-
Yeah go for this one ?
-
People who married the garage light sensor be like:
-
Yeah Mitsu deleted that filter from F4A4 automatic transmissions, CVTs belong to a different series of transmissions
-
Who is your insurance provider?
-
Yeah that "external" filter which Mitsu decided redundant was at the bottom of the oil pan, going by their workshop guides (linked above)
-
The oil pan is mounted sideways so dismantling the oil pan from the bottom is impossible ? even if the oil pan is removed sonehow there is no filter underneath: apparantly Mitsu deleted the external filter of these transmissions back in 1999. The internal filter cannot be accessed without removing the torque converter housing.
