Hi @AVANTE I saw you comprehensive answer on Peugeot 406. So I submit a question and if you could, could you have a look on my post(· 0 replies
) I would like to have your opinion on that. So my obvious choice was Peugeot 406 D9 diesel one. but what i heard was, probability of some one selling it due to considerable issues, and it has hard time of reselling and repairing and spare pats finding and cost may considerably high. Seeking advice on this.
Thank you

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
Ripper
Hi all
well as you know...i got a 93 ae100 sprinter... yep that's a Toyota and no it's not bulletproof :)
Was having starting problems last friday and saturday it just absolutely refused to start...
Towed it to toyota since they are close by and after checking her up fully... they concluded that i have busted/fried my ECU
Toyota doesn't stock parts for older cars and they roughly guessed a new unit to be over 40k plus unknown delivery times
Now i have two options
1. go to delkanda area and find a recon/used ECU for a 5AFE motor
2. get t he ECU "fixed" by one of those ECU experts, one fella stays quite close to my place in wattala
the only nagging thought for me is that even if i buy a used ECU for the exact model, that unit will still be over 10 years old...upto 15 years actually
so there's no guessing when that too will go bust..
If i "repair" the ECU at least the "parts" used will be "newer" and might hold up longer?????
any ideas on which route to go for???????
One of my friends said that i might be able to find a used ECU from 5k-10k+
No idea about repair costs but i'd guess that too will be falling somewhere over 5k
Help!
