I have the following problem, sometimes the ABS and Hand Break Indicators (Lights) starts to show up. Normally this happens when i stay in the Traffic for sometime. Sometimes this happens when i start and run, the indicators suddenly start to show up, This do not happen all the time.
When the indicators start to show up, the illumination of the indicators are very low, and barely visible, but the light slowly builds up. if i increase the AC, the indicators become brighter, and when i reduce it goes away and comes back. if the car goes in to a hole in the road the indicators go off and come back.
This is not frequent but when it comes it stays for a while.
I have had Alternator Problems also.
I scanned the car and i was told that there is a fault in one of the ABS sensors. the detail was deleted and we ran the car for about 5 - 10 Kms, it looked fine.
The same evening the problem is back again, the biggest problem i have is to show it to my garage guy, since it do not happen that often. My garage guy told that this nothing to do with the electricity, looking for a second opinion, because he has not seen it first hand. Planning to take an image next time it happens.
The worry i have is whether this is something to do with a faulty alternator, if so there might be a chance the i might get stranded on the road, it has happened to me twice, i do not want to go through the same thing again.
So for a spirited convo like this old times; ?BYD
My father has gone ninja about getting one, despite being the new hype/fad here these are common across the world and I've seen a few cross 100,000km in Nepal and Australia.
Seal - Looks nice, very premium interior but too low for my applications
Sealion - Very Premium, feels very well built, BUT that 1.5L on that reasonable chunk of car with a measly 18KW battery seems like a recipe for trouble, incase they sink in value at least the fuel economy must justify that (They say it's a BYD engine - though the lore is it is a hyundai engine)
Atto 3 - Most sold from their lot apparently, common af, Seems to be the best bang for buck IMHO, Its electric since BYD is famed for that, Interior is kinda good, the thing is larger than a vezel but not too large like the Sealion, cheap mobility I guess with less things to go wrong
Dolphin, almost a smaller atto and again too car like and not suited for my application.
JK nailed it on the price and distribution but the only guaranteed thing here is the lot are gonna muck up the aftersales. The Kandy center staff behave like the crew from a Govt. post office.
What are your thoughts and opinions? Could this be the next Wagon R or is this a passing fad like the Micros of 2000s-2010s?
I have an empty parking slot at home previously occupied for 6 years by the starlet and 3 months by an AD wagon -what would be a bang-for-the-buck fun shitbox? Preferably auto as I live in a crowded suburb that has sapped the joy of stick shift out of my system.

I am not sure whether this is the correct forum
