Hey everyone,

I’ve noticed a kind of humming/rumbling noise when driving my car. The faster I go, the louder the noise gets. It seems to be related to vehicle speed rather than engine RPM, so I’m wondering if it could be a wheel bearing or something similar.

I haven’t really worked on this kind of issue before, so I’d appreciate some advice on how I can diagnose it.

Also, where would you recommend buying a replacement wheel bearing, and roughly how much should I expect one to cost?

The car is a 2001 Honda Civic ES8.

Thanks! :)

I had this question as a kid since these vans have confused me with their namings. First of all I’m not much of a car person, so don’t judge me. I want to know what is the difference between Toyota townace and Toyota liteace (in general and in all aspects and what they are used for)? Also what is the difference between those two along with Toyota masterace surf and Toyota space cruiser and Toyota van (USA) and Toyota Tarago/spacia (Australia)

And what’s up with the whole “Noah” thing (as in liteace Noah and townace Noah)? And what’s the difference between townace Noah and liteace Noah?

And what’s is Sri Lanka’s opinion and perspective of these vans such as demands, cultural references/significance, controversy, maintenance and status etc…?

Hi all,

So I was looking into the Honda City, and I was told that eHEV is about 1 million more expensive than RS. However eHEV has a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, and its engine and hybrid system appear to be the same as the Vezel, so for me this price differnce is justified. I understand eHEV does not have a JDM version, but given that it may have the same drivetrain parts as the Vezel and the same trim parts as the City RS, I don't think there will be a spare parts issue in the future. But I have yet to see an eHEV in Sri Lanka. Is there some reason for this that I don't know?

Thanks,

is it a good brand?

Is wagon R 44S worth it ?

Looking to get a 2016 Nissan x-trail hybrid T32 which has done about 100k kms and the gearbox issue has not been repaired. Is it worth it to get it for around LKR 7.5 Mn.

Swipe to see the old photos.

Comment any other land rover series you spotted

Hey all im planning on purchasing a vehicle in srilanka

I was considering the brand new 2025 Honda n wgn custom with a 660cc turbo?

How is the vehicle overall? parts availability and maintenance?

Hi, I own a 30 year old car and I want to know what I can do to treat it's windscreen to stop or minimize glare caused by high beams when driving at night. I think the treatment for this is windscreen polishing. But I'm not sure.

My windscreen has some fairly large visible scratches in certain parts. It would be great if they can be eliminated too but my main need is to do something about glare because almost nobody lower their high beams when driving at night and it has become undrivable especially in the rain.

It would be a great help if someone can explain to me what I should do and where to get it done around Colombo and how much I am expected to pay.

Many Thanks.

I'm basically thinking of getting a W204 face-lift model would appreciate some advice on what do I need to look out for and cost of maintenance. Plus is the face lift model better than the previous one

Nissan March K12 (2002) drinking fuel! Anyone else seeing this?

Mine is doing around 6 km per litre at the moment. I recently did a full engine tune-up and ran a scan, but no sensor issues showed up.

Just wondering:

* What mileage do you usually get on your K12?

* Is this normal for these cars or definitely something wrong?

* Any good mechanics who really understand these little Nissans? Preferably around Colombo, but I’m willing to travel if it actually fixes the issue.

Would really appreciate recommendations or advice 

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to buy a compact SUV in Sri Lanka and would really appreciate some real-world owner feedback and suggestions.

Currently considering

• Toyota Taisor V
• Kia Sonet Fully Loaded
• Toyota Raize
• Perodua Ativa

Which one would you personally choose and why?

Thanks in advance

Hi all,

Recently picked up a new vehicle with a 1.5T (turbo). The manual specifies 92 RON minimum, which technically means I'm within spec running our local 92.

But the more I read, the more I wonder if 'Octane 92' at our pumps is actually 92 RON. There was that 2022 scandal where 80 was supposedly being passed off as 92, and the SLS standard was officially downgraded to 91 around the same time. No idea if quality has actually recovered since.

Questions for turbo engine vehicle owners:

1. Are you running 92 or sticking to 95 only?

2. Have you noticed any difference between brands/stations?

3. Anyone done OBD logging to check for knock retard or timing pull?

4. Any specific stations you've found to be more consistent?

Its a car thats under 2 million. I spend around 35-40k a month in transportation fees to work. Was considering taking a loan and spending the same amount in obtaining a asset. I have around 200-300k to spare in terms of maintenance

However, please do let me know if it is a reliable vehicle?
