That uncle-mode must be legit - I'm sitting at 140 approx with a half tank right now but my drives are usually short distance 30KM approx with mostly max throttle, courtesy late night driving lol.

Usually reserve has like 10 or 15 litres left depending on your mileage.

I fill up petrol when reserve light comes on. Normally 50-52 litres are filled. Which mean yes the reserve tank should be around 12-15 litres.

Just got the car refuelled after using first tank. Only 43 litres were filled. So i guess 20 litres are left when reserve light is turned on. Average was 9.8km per litre. With ac.

Hello everyone. Can anyone tell me what's the difference between these two gear oils for my accord.
One is purchased from mehran Auto in Rawalpindi and the other is from the company. I changed the fluid from the mehran auto one but I think it's fake.
Any guidance please? 1 picture is the mehran auto purchase and the second is from honda company

That's quite unbelievable - though I'm happy for you, any tips for such fuel average? haha

ali.iqbal1 2018-06-13 16:16:35 +0500 #691

Considering how Pepsi, Sprite and Sting - medicines etc are being fake-manufactured here in Pakistan - I personally have trust issues with products being sold from unauthorised dealerships especially liquids which can easily be replicated.

If you think its fake get it replaced - otherwise you'll have to spend $ on replacing the tranny in the worst case scenario.

Lol. I have a very light foot and i mostly just cruise around. Although i like to floor the pedal on straight roads with low traffic. And did that a few times. Mostly to show off to whoever was with me most of the times i am driving around between 70 and 80 km/h.
I used to get pretty good average for my swift as well. A bit over 14 km/l with ac while most of people are always complaining about high consumption of swift.

I called the company today and they said that it's a variant difference. Then I contacted the local dealer they said that the market is full of old stock and maybe the company now imports from Indonesia instead of Thailand..
Still confused though
Lol

Beauty all lush push for eid

ali.iqbal1 2018-06-15 04:49:39 +0500 #695

MashAllah looks great, if I were you I'd remove those mud-flaps - give the car a clean look from the side and back. Surprisingly my car didn't come with them lol.

usmansameen (usmansameen) 2018-06-15 12:45:48 +0500 #696

Ok. Bye bye to mud flaps after eid

All set for Eid.

Does cl9 have a heavy steering? I drove my swift after a few weeks yesterday and the steering was feeling light as a feather!!!

Rahat083144 (Rahat) 2018-06-17 11:30:12 +0500 #699

My CL9 has the heaviest power steering I've ever used. Stock rims and tires, remember.

Despite the presence of EPS, the CL steering is heavy (or should i say beautifully weighted). Swift steering would have felt like there's nothing but oxygen between the steering and front tyres. Lol

Rahat083144 (Rahat) 2018-06-17 12:40:51 +0500 #701

Personally I like heavy steering compared to the artificially feather light steering of, for example, Corolla. But to be honest, Accord steering is too heavy even for my liking.

Eid Mubarik to all CL owners out there.

Khair Mubarak brother. Eid mubarak from my side as well. Post Eid wash for all cars. Didnt find time to wax it. Maybe next time.

ali.iqbal1 2018-06-19 01:46:44 +0500 #704

So I just came back home after eid, pulled the cover off the cars and noticed this absurd patch on the CL's trunk. Tried scrubbing it out with soapy-water, failed miserably.

I washed the car properly before covering it - though I did use a new-cover for it, used the same cover for the Civic as well didn't notice anything odd on that car.

No idea wtf this is, anyone here with any similar experience - help a brother out.

Looks like clear coat failure from the picture judgement. How did this happen?
