Cultus 2011 jerks and tuk tuk sound when driving straight in low RPM

[saboor73]

I went to 5s dealer and as usual one of the mechanic there took me out to another mechanic who said the tuk tuk noise which i hear when i drive straight is of the axle and i need to open and see how bad the condition is of axle, when i agreed he opened the left side axle of my car and told me that someone repaired the axle previously and it was welded and not been repaired properly so he repaired it and fixed it after some welding, grinding it. After that the tuk tuk noise is gone till now i have not driven much after that, let see if its good to go in the long run

while he told me that genuine axle is approx 5500 new, if the axle make noise then i have decided to replace it with a new one.

For the low pick up on CNG, the mechanic told me that you needed tuning and for that come to me after the eid, he said he will do all the necessary tuning work and set the tapid settings after that pick will be improved. Honestly i am thinking to get my work done by some local mechanic as 5s dealer mechanic are not doing there work on suzuki service shop and sending me to their mechanics who are either friends with them.

Yes bro, mein ab new axle he lunga agar in mein kam nikla to, actually mein ne pehli dafa gari li ha so sab koch seekh raha hu, par i am that person who wants the permanent solution of the problems and i want the peace of mind by paying more once and crying once rather than crying again n again by paying less and finding a shortcut. I am driving the car till now it is going OK but once the axle makes noises again i will replace it this time straight.

Bro i went to 5s dealer for the whistling sound that comes from the back of the car continues till i stop the engine and they said it straight that its the fuel pump and it wont go away, either ignore it or change the fuel pump, they said kabli one comes for 1500 and labor would be around 1500 and said that for now run the car as it is and ignore the sound and try to fill your petrol tank upto 40 percent and also run it on petrol too sometimes.

I did tuned my car and changed oil to zic a+ 5-20w with SGS air filter and SGS oil filter, i feel the pick has improved on CNG and car runs smooth. he also said that your butterfly is choked a little but we would do this work later on.

If car does not pull when you put your hands off steering wheel then steering wheel itself requires adjustment.

wrong choice of oil
API SN is not for cultus

Use sgo premium best oil for carby and efi cultus

Use sgo premium best oil for carby and efi cultus

I have seen mostly people using ZIC oils so i want to use that too, please suggest me any oil from that with right viscosity, here in my city the tempurture goes upto 45-48 C in summer and in winter it gets to 10 C to 30 C

can i use this oil for my cultus efi 2011 51500 kms done, the city temp in summer goes upto 45-48 C and in winter it gets to 10 C to 30 C???

they are as knowledgeable as mechanic on road side then, I'm glad they didn't ask you to pour 20w50
Optimal viscosity for Cultus = 10w40 or even less
Optimal API grade for Cultus = API SG/SJ
Zic cannot serve both sadly.

However SGO Premium is very good and fall into both standards mentioned above
Kixx Gold SJ is also a fine oil which fall in it

[rameezahmed2]

bro but zicx7 says It also provides outstanding engine protection, and is recommended to be used in Japanese, Korean, American cars where API SN/SM/SL/SG is recommended. so is it still not recommended? thanks for your replies.

Dear Saboor ,
you are right that mostly ppl use Zic but as told by mr rameez Suzuki geniun oil is more good then zic, we are using in our office pool more than 7 car i.e swift apv etc cultus its best for suzuki cars.
Specially for suzuki i recomend you to use only its geniun parts and oil . you will see the difference.

thanks

Dont fall for such gimmicks. Yes it can be poured on vehicles requiring api sg sj but not in Cultus
Cultus tappet are made this way that they require higher amount of zddp (1500ppm) as in sg sl. It was reduced to 1200ppm in sl and further 800ppm in sn because most engines work fine with low amount and as you said other protections are provided in newer oils.
Those protecting chemicals cannot be a substitute to zddp for engines like in Cultus both carby and efi.

Suzuki SGO oil is running fine in my car, i thought to update this so that someone who reads it may find this helpful in the future, i used Suzuki Genuine Oil 10w40 Premium, it cost me 1600 for 4 Ltrs. i bought it from 3s Suzuki workshop.
