  1. DM me the exact part you need. I might be able to help you.
  2. https://www.facebook.com/25gbangkok They are accepting pre-orders on the GR Yaris ????
  3. If your wife's market stall is a registered company with registered capital and a few registered Thai employees then you can apply for a work permit, but not sure "market seller" is professional allowed for foreigners.
  4. That piece of road in Khon Kaen is absolutely insanely dangerous. Drivers come down the bridge at full speed (100, 120 km/h), knowing they have to brake just a few hundred meters further. It has nothing to do with poor road design, but with poor driving skills.
  5. As far as I know it was changed recently to be required.
  6. Happy you got it all sorted! Be careful on the road ????
  7. Every clinic carries the form. It's the standard "5 diseases" form, which is used for many other occasions.
  8. I think you better take a screenshot of the screen or take a picture with your phone ???? You need to print it out, and take it to the DLT. Depending on where you live, you either can just walk in and get a new license or you need to get an appointment for a later time. In my case, I walked in, waited 5 minutes and got a new license. Good luck ????
  9. After you watched the video and passed the test, you will get a QR code. You need to print it out and take it with you. My DLT office said it is valid for 60 days. Not sure about other DLT offices. Some people have issues with the video when using FireFox or Safari. I recommend using Google Chrome.
  10. Yeah, but no worries. It's not really an online training. Same questions at the beginning of the test, during the test and at the end of the test. It's fairly simple, but you need to watch it for 1 hour. No way to skip it. The first 40 minutes or so are subtitled, the last 20 minutes are actually really nice. Two native speakers in a nicely made video explaining about the rules and regulations in Thailand. Really well-made.
  11. Unfortunately foreign residents cannot use the DLT Smart Q system, but depending on where you live you can either walk-in or go to the local DLT to make an appointment. Don't forget to do the online training at home, so you can skip the video at the local DLT. https://www.dlt-elearning.com/Home/ForeignerIndex
  12. Did you try another browser? Chrome or Firefox should do the trick. Plus it's three questions before you can click play, not two.
  13. Voltronic 5w-30 is LL-04 specified and is available in Thailand ???? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/voltronic-voltronic-5w-30-4-i303688278.html
  14. Chevrolet revamped their dealers into AC/DELCO repair shops. Service should be okay.
  15. Doesn't the Nissan NP300 have a coil spring set up in the rear on its top model?
  16. No, they weren't originally included. We have our own aftermarket part shop so we did all the work ourselves. These are the details of all the parts fitted: 1. Shocks (front and rear): Ironman Foamcell Pro 2. Springs (front): Ironman Comfort Springs (they will lift the truck around 2 inches in the front, leveling the truck). 3. Control Arms: Ironman Control Arms There are a few shops in Bangkok and Pattaya that sell the whole set of the above-mentioned parts, but should be around 35,000 to 45,000 baht (without the control arms) depending on the shop and the promotion they are running. The control arms can range from 12,000 to 16,000 baht again depending on the shop. As far as I know there is no retrofit kit available for the PXIII Ranger to change the leaf springs to shocks in the rear. But from my own experience, the car now handles much better and is much less bumpy. Still cannot compare to our Landcruiser or Accord, but it's a truck after all.
  17. I also have a Ford Ranger XLT 2020. I changed my shocks with Ironman 4x4 shocks (comfort ride) and also changed the springs. The ride is much better and less bumpy, also the truck is leveled now. However, as pointed out by many users, if you want a really comfortable ride, it's better to look at something else than a pick-up.
  18. The 6 speed automatic is tried and tested and reliable. The 2.2 liter diesel as well. Shouldn't have much issues with it. The service by the dealer kind of depends ont he dealer. No real standard, it's kind of a hit or miss.
  19. Honda Garage or training center in Bangkok (all cars Honda, wearing Honda poloshirts etc).
  20. A Ford Ranger 2.2 takes around 7.7 liter for a full oil change. Shell Helix 5W30 is more than good enough, but I always use Ford Motorcraft as it's generally cheaper than Shell.
  21. My wife's family in ChiangMai swear by Charoen Motors ????
