Seeking advice on this.

Chinese are going to take over the automobile industry for sure. Tesla who was considered ground braking is shying away from the promised small EV and moving to Taxi cars as the competition is too strong. Then comes Chery with this small EV SUV. Looks like a Mini G Class / Jimny but is fully electric.· 4 replies

Interior Specialists? Every time I go over some bumps my seats squeak quite loudly and there is a massive rattle of a nail undone coming from inside the dashboard, anybody got any suggestions I could go to? My usual mechanic just said "turn the radio up"· 2 replies

I was watching a Yangwang U8 struggling to make it up a muddy hill on Youtube. I was wondering why cant an EV be more capable off road than an ICE vehicle. Given the fact that this behemoth has 4 individual motor on each wheel it should be able to direct power to the wheel that has more grip and stop power to the slipping wheel. Cant be rocket science right?· 3 replies

Question
Clark's son
Our Mitsubishi Montero sport 2007 4D56 turbo intercooler diesel has developed an EGR related problem.
When it is happening it has very low power from 1500-3500rpm and a lot of smoke and a deafening sound.
The mechanic pointed out that it stopped when the coolant sensor or the tube that went to the system was removed,
so he said that it was a defect of the coolant sensor or a sensor near the unit.
My opinion was that the EGR needed a little bit of cleaning.
This has run more than 130 000km and was used to sip normal diesel.
Noticed the fuel economy drop from about 12kmpl to 7kmpl.
Now i brought it home with a tube removed, thus bypassing the EGR
Is it good to run bypassing the EGR,
From the internet I found that it was involved mainly in reducing NOx emmisions and slightly reduce performance and economy in diesels
So as Sri lankan emmision tests only measure opacity
Am I better off without it
I hope an expert will shed some light into this problem.
