Hello guys
History:
2006 VXR (carby)
I bought it at 65K, now it has 91K on the odometer.
Oil: 20W50 Caltex Havoline Formula
Petrol: Total
Pre-Symptoms:
Car reduced engine oil by half litre in 3000km run.
Weak Pick
Worst pick on A/C or [CNG+ climb]
I have Cultus Carby which requires an engine overhaul (weak pick and blowby).
Please suggest a Pindi/Islamabad mechanic who is trustworthy and awesome in his work.
I know its just a cultus and everyone can do it but I would still go with someone who people have had good contact with and have personal experience.
My guiding thread is this one by @agoodfriend

I know about the parts now.
Right now, I am leaning towards a mechanic named Rafaqat on Double Road car market. He told for a 30K+ expense estimate for the whole overhaul with geniune parts.
Is that OK? How do I know that he has put the same parts that he was talking about? He intends to keep the car for 3 days.
Compression Test:
Ok, I went to Garage Master behind Urdu university and let me tell you, I have never seen a more close-minded as well as vulgar talking guys as them. Specially the owner who simply ignored that there is even a wet-test. His whole time was spent trying to reject the very notion of a compression test.
I feel like punching the ******-nozzle who told of garage master on PW. Seriously guys, avoid!
Anyways, I got the dry test done.
Dry Test:
Cyl 1: 100
Cyl 2: 50
Cyl 3: 80
