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
E L N I N O
hi guys,
recently my lancer's radiator top tank started leaking and i went to CT Li* to get it replaced. since the radiator core did not have any major blocking, i asked the guy to check the thermostat value. he found it faulty (see the scratched bit) and said it was blocking the water flow and was the culprit for damaging the tank.
his advice was either to put a genuine thermostat value or simply to get rid of it completely he said if i remove it, the water will flow freely and the engine will be cooled even better. then i asked why on earth it is there in the first place and he said its meant to function in colder countries and here its useless. after checking the price from the agents, i also decided its useless (well atleast till i collect some money to buy it)
so since then i am running without the damn thing and the only difference i noticed was now the radiator fan takes longer to turn itself on. (so now the engine actually being cooled better???) my worry is whether i am ruining my engine, radiator or any other part due to this maka baas mod? please help...
