Dear Waqas Here,
i read your article about the santro overhaul. i need your number to talk about it as i am planning to get this done for my santro as well
Plz always try to overall your Santro car engine.Kabli engine will always disturbed you with different sorts of problem .Like milage issue Missing Pick issueEtc
Your article is very good and informative. Santro is really very costly to maintain. I want to share my experience here. I enjoy this car at aggressive mode. Last week the timing belt was broken. I called the mechanic and he came and took the car to his workshop for installating new one.My Allah knows what happened the car started very rough and mechanic took the rpm at peak and said cylinder 3 is not working. Furthermore the broken timing belt has caused the valves and piston damage.All i want to ask that can a sudden tearing of the timing belt can cause such a huge damage. I have a feeling that I have fallen into a corrupt mechanic's trap. Any suggestions and comments would helpful for me and other santro owners.
with interference type engine, if timing belt break, valve will hit the piston head surface and will eventually damage both, that;s why it's called interference type engine.
the damage is obvious, and mechanic may have correct opinion.
Thanks for your timely response.Damage is obvious and repair is inevitable. I had three options
I took the 3rd option uptill now spend 40000. Luckily found kabli head cam shaft and begaan (no idea what that is was reading 125 which is max, said the mechanic) Still some parts are to be purchased. It might exceed 50000 i think. Am i doing the right thing?
Kabuli SWAP is sort of a gamble, you cannot really tell how much life is left in engine.
if rebuil done proper with new parts, you know that engine is new and will serve you long time.

Kabuli of course is a gamble. I didn't want to try my luck. So I decided to go for a rebuild.Its an open secret that santro is expensive to maintain,but it serves you well if you treat it well.
i have heard that when santro engine is overhaul it still reduce some amount of engine oil? is it true plz suggest me? as my car is reducing oil . is there is someone who has overhaul the santro and its not reducing oil. as my friend has santro he overhauled the engine but it still reduce 0.5 liter after 3000 km 10W-40
Hi Guys,Need ur suggestions based on your experiences and expertise as I am a beginner here.I own a santro 2004 exec model and I am facing the oil burning issue. car is giving smoke and engine oil consumption is very high. Most probably the ring piston/ valve seal issue. Overall car performance is good. no missing issue, no such noiceable loss of power etc. car is driven and maintained carefuly so i dont think engine parts condition is much bad.A friend of mine suggested to try "liqui moly smoke oil stop additive" for temporarily resolution of this prolem a bit and to drive 6 to 8 months more before going for some mechanical work.Please suggest what should i do?1. Try the oil additive and run it for few more months untill it become neccesary to get some mechanical work done.2. Just get the ring piston/valve seals work done.3. Or to go for a full engine overhaul?
Also if u can refer a santro expert mechanic. and expected cost of option 2 and 3.
