What is the normal problem with Lantis 1.8?

[insane_ian]

Khorne....i agree with you...that there's a bunch of lantis sedan out there
just have to find them..i did noticed alot of hatchbacks that are for sale but not the sedan..

I also agree that paint work is important...but why or what do you mean its not cheap to repaint a lantis...? aint it the same price.....or is there more to painting a lantis..

There's a bunch of Lantis out there...
Slowly look around for one... A good find is possible...
No use buying one and ending up spending a bomb repairing it...
Paint work is important and it's not cheap to repaint a Lantis...

Gearbox for one will cost a bomb if it's a manual...
Minor things will also cost money... My advice always have extra cash in hand when buying a second hand car, cause changing all the consummables and changing certain things don't come cheap...

lucky i bought mine in a fairly good condition. looked and felt like new...BUT..

suspension seems to be a prob to catch tough...got metal knocking noise when going through some bumps. dunno what's wrong leh...

anyone care to help?

MitonCT26,
Your suspension problem could be as simple as spring binding to faulty parts...
You need to send your car to a workshop, one that specialises in alignment and suspension...
YSKhong Motorsports would be a good place to start...
If youre interested then give them a call at 03-7803 3263...

Well bro,
Yours seem to be like a phantom problem...
Hard to diagnose without seeing the car...
Anyways it's always good to search the online forums for help... Maybe you can try the foreign ones...
