Thabks all for the really warm welcome, it is really that the belt need to be change at 40k insead like jap car 80k.

Am runing semi, can i use fully?

I just change mine when i send for the last maintanance.I have a few question.

1.do anyone know how can i make my econ meter work, it is not working now, it is got to do with the battery in the meter as i have remove it and now dont know us what to replace it.

2.Also how can i make the car idle smooth,ie no hickup as it judder a bit when idle, it seems annoying.

3.I also might need a replacement gear box as mine is emiting ruff noice when draging in gear, sound like lorry.

4.fuel gauge sometime will move to empty and up,the reserve tank light also not coming up

Need all the advice.
