( parking )press the autostart button, get out of the car n colse the door then the engine automatically stops ... in that case i have to put the gear to nutral position n pull the handbrake.. oh n lock the door...then u can start ur car anytime without having any problem bt the sad thing is i have to follow these instructions again n again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMG Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 Thanks for your info guys, I have managed to install a decent one for 12k in a place in Colombo 14. Pretty good brand and work. I've been adviced to put my car in Kleen Park (Dehiwala) by my uncle for a full wash and wax. (there are some dirts on the seats). What do you guys think about their service? Any Advice Please..

Watchman Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 yeah.. Kleen Park is pretty good... their wax-jobs are pretty nice as well.. they have a number of packages/treatments.... so depending on what u really want done to the car you can choose...prices also are quite reasonable.

I know for sure that there are alarms which detect if a car jacker comes too close to the vehicle. I bet all these vehicles are fitted with those alarms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the job is not good I dont pay...lol.... and I have never had to do that.....To me what is most important is the interior clean up, Which I must say Clean Park is excelent at . The body work I am not that happy.....all in all I am very satisfied with Clean Park... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FB15's doesn’t like cherries. ............................................................................................................ Bhara... go for a full service, might cost you a bit, and do an engine glazing as well. After that do periodical services in time. Good luck man. Clean park is very good, as well as the Pit stop. I do services at both places, no complaints yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
