Cultus VXR 2000, a gem, a real workhorse

[leogineer]

the pick dies, even when the clutch pedal is fully released, you will feel as if its slightly pressed.

Dear Bro Usman, really liked your comments and the advice in this thread; have got some additional (other) queries as well; would like to know your expert opinion on the following important issues I have got, too:

1. I have got a 2002 VXR Cultus (Petrol only) in a condition comparable to that of yours, mashAllah (m/A). I am having nowadays more or less the same problem, as well (I guess the worn out clutch- or pressure-plate). But in my case, it happens only a very few times (i.e. not often), e.g. the engine RPM increases while pushing down on the gas-pedal (accelerator), but the pick seems to be missing meanwhile. Then I suddenly have to push down on the clutch-pedal slightly (not fully), and after releasing it shortly, the car seems to be getting the pick as quite normally. Several times, I've had tested my car while putting it in 3rd or sometimes in 4th gear (i.e. the speed around 40-70 kph), by giving several jerks to the throttle-pedal while driving the car as just aforementioned, just to check as to whether it misses the pick in this case or not, but this slip of the pick never happens during such tests. It only happens rarely while driving the car normally. I've discussed this issue with one of my work-colleagues, but he is of the view that only the clutch-wire needs oiling or lubrication. He says that these symptoms aren't typically for a faulty Clutch/Pressure Plate, etc. Now, can you pls tell me what exactly are the other symptoms of testing or detecting a faulty Clutch/Pressure Plate? I also asked a motor-mechanic I visited quite recently to loosen my clutch so that it should release earlier than before, but the problem persists even now as well.
2. My car's fuel economy is only b/w 10-11 km/Ltr (w/o AC, within Karachi city), which in my view is nothing for a car in such a good condition, m/A. Pls suggest me what should I do to improve its economy in particular? Have got its carburetor checked once by a normal technician; who said that everything was okay and also I needed not to worry about its idling-speed stuff etc, as everything was pretty alright and smooth.
3. My last query: What is your candid opinion about the resale value of a 2002 model VXR Cultus (the one with a condition like that of yours)? Shouldn't it be around 0.5Million PKR or even slightly above (but of course with no CNG kit in my case)?

Thanking you in anticipation and looking anxiously fwd to hear from you soon.

Sincere wishes
Faraz

In plan for the current Corolla .. saving money

UBL says get a new one, but me hesitant to go with bank even if I go with bank I will look for 3year plan like less head-ache with low installment max 15K.

Along with my Cultus sold the Red RX too

Well I too does not like long terms lease plans. I just did my 2 years lease plan of the LIANA LXI and now am too looking to get another one for a 2/3 years lease, probably a Mitsubishi or Honda this time. But it will must be an auto tranny now, I am tired of manual shiftings
Lease able Civics are damn expensive though
And yes if anybody wants a rock solid LIANA, do give him my number then

Yaar Hondas are way out of budget right now. All automatics are currently above 1M. I m looking to buy around 9lacs and also under 5 years of manufacturing to get it leased by a bank. So options are more favorable for Lancer
