@Xulfiqar sorry for posting a non automotive question in this thread. i want to ask you that my younger brother has a wall mounted split ac unit in his room, the room is 12x12 and ac is 13000btu on ground floor but its been a year or so there is a house constructed on the back of his house where his AC outdoor unit is mounted, now its cooling is reduced and not performing like it used to. Outdoor unit has 2ft space in front of it is a wall, and i asked out a AC technician he is saying that outdoor unit is not getting its exhaust so his AC is also not tripping which is sign of compressor heating up or ac unable to release the heat.

your ac tech is right, the condensing unit is not able to shed heat, you need to either move it somewhere else or come up with some clever ducting. Moving it would be cheaper.

Good find, -- the 606 is about equal in the HP department as the 602 turbo, but the 602 feels alive when the turbo pulls it, the 606 feels like a Honda B16 - you rev it like crazy to make decent HP (yes you rev the **** out of the 606 diesel in NA form to get respectable power)

I would look out for timing chain noise on the 602, there were some models with a weak chain in them, but at 440K - I think it must be changed by now, look for headgasket leaks externally - they fail usually.

From the donor, get whatever cosmetic parts you can shove into your car boot and seats, get the transmission too if yours is auto, other hardware like glass regulators etc if you need them..

Found another one, this time a 500SE Maybe I will buy it and keep as a donor car and well, if I get bored, swap engines
FINN – Mercedes-Benz

nice find - be careful - collecting benz is an addiction, currently they are no therapy clinics for this addiction. - I myself am trying to get my hands on an S600 W140 (my problem is that Im married and that car is a real supercar - in all forms, maintenance and upkeep costs too)

Hi. My question is about AirCon of 95 Pajero 2800 tdi. AC throws cool air while vehicle is running. However when vehicle is idle, say on signals or otherwise, AC stops Collins at all
I have recharged gas and serviced AC with no effect. Condenser fan is working properly. Now mech says compressor needs to be changed

One more thing, sometimes Ac stops cooling after some travelling of twenty KMs. I suppose this is due to vehicle gets to some hot temperature, however, heat gauge still shows normal temperature. My thermo valve has been removed and fan is directly driven by shaft

Please provide your valuable feedback. Should I change compressor. How much should it cost. What is best, Chinese new compressor or Kabli used one

Thanks

Assalam u alaikum..

Which transmission oil should I use for 6th Generation Civic Automatic?

And which engine oil is best for it?

[m.zaman.ali]

I own Daihatsu Mira e:s, 2012 Model, since October 2015.

In the start
After some days, Break Caliper Pins started noise. A rattling sound Specially on bad road. On carpet roads, no noise.
Mechanic check and said No issue. Pins are dry and after greasing, issue will be solved. He greased them and issue solved but right after 800-1000km, same noise came again.
Next time I consulted Toyota Workshop, they did the same but with different grease. As usual issue solved for abt 1000km but after that same noise..
After that I googled the issue and consulted different Pakwheels forums.
In conclusion, found that
"Sylglide"-a vegetable oil based Lubricant" or Silicon Grease is suitable for break caliper pins. Bcoz these lubricants dont melt on high temperature.
Searched sylglide but it is not available in Pakistan but found German silicon based grease from Lahore.
Again consulted Mechanic and this time we used Silicon based grease for lubrication of pins.
As usual issue solved and I was happy tht noise didn't come back after 1000km.
But in last week, after 4500km, while coming from a long route, pins started noise again.
Needs your expert advice. Plz suggest any permanent solution for this issue.
Regards

Hi everyone, I own a Honda city 2015 manual transmission. I live at a place where my garage is at an incline, approximately 15 degrees. I was worried that, if I keep parking on the 15 degree slope for a longer time then it may harm my car, I.e transmission, suspension or hand brake etc. It takes third click of handbrake to stop the car on slope. I'll be grateful for some expert opinion.
Regards.

This is the slope. Front wheels come on level ground and rear wheels come on incline.
