Can someone tell me the oil brands in Sri Lanka with Acea C3 specs that can be used with KIA Sorento Diesel 2011/12 model? According to the KIA manual, it has to be 5W30. When I checked with the agents I was told they use 10W40 Mobil Delovac. What should be the correct oil. Mine has done about 67,000kms.
Restoring a 90's Diesel.
Gentlemen, What are your thoughts on doing a soft-resto on an unhacked Nissan SB14 that has been sitting around for 8 years?
1997 car registered in 2000. Manual gears, 2L CD20 diesel. Single owner -Decased. Family who are known to me - dont use it. Unhacked body and almost pristine interior. Clean body lines, no accidents. Complete car and appears untouched by makabasses. Engine shows signs of under-compression, brakes and clutch-plate need replacing, tyres are on the brink of decomposing. Power mirrors do not work. Needs a paint job. No major corrosion but early-stage rust spots on the boot lid.
Nissan might close down operations in 12 -14 months? https://www.carscoops.com/2024/11/nissan-exec-says-we-have-12-or-14-months-to-survive/ Are we going to see more companies shutting down or is this a one off. So much for the new GTR and the new Patrol.
Is there an alternative to the Maruti 800? A friend of mine is looking for an extremely cheap to run and fix car for around 1.5M. While I do advocate old Japanese cars in that budget - if his need is basic A-B motoring at the lowest possible cost - maintenance wise and with fuel - is there any other option that I am forgetting?
