[geniesgona]

it depends on condition of Enigne... usually it's cost round about Rs.15000/-

[akifsikander]

@geniesgona:plz clear,whether this cost is for charade or alto.

yaar in my opinion do not go for overhaul if it is gone, i mean the engine is gone or dead. Try swapping it with another one.

As Star2 said, for charade, swapping is the best option.

For alto, overhauling may be a good option, considering the resale factor. About costs, I recently overhauled Nissan engine, which costed 35k. My dad's Kia classic was overhauled for around 28k by the same person. My cousine's Mehran costed around 20K. Neither turned out to be a fully satisfactory overhaul. So swapping is the best option.

star2,isbcap & geniesgona:thnx for the reply.btw what is the cost of swapping engine and with which engine????either charade's stock or some other???

Brother currently i am also considering engine over hauling and the rates i have from 2 to 3 mechnic for complete overhaul is 8000 for Labour and lake machine work seperately which will cost around 3000 some thing and parts are seperate

I take quotation from Haji Autos PLaza for Suzuki FX engine (F8B) so for Japanese parts the parts cost is around 20000 Rs (if we need to change almost all major things), so over haul you can consider around 25000 - 30000 for Alto for complete work with quality parts

Did you ask him why the need for an overhaul? Did you get the compression checked? Does it need only a valve job? If compression is fine, why overhaul?

I will visit Irshad Mechnic in Tariq Road and ask him to do the compression test and see what are the results and his opinion and will update it accordingly.

My khyber's engine sometimes does same kar kar in morning and also a little smoke in morning. Haven't got it checked from mechanic but thinking to get swapping done at the near death of this engine
