To resolve this issue first start the car and open the cap of radiator ..... fill the water in radiator .... now observe if water bubbles coming from inner radiator and water level decreasing continuously ..... also check if radiator fan is switching on and off normally ..... if fan is working and still water bubbles are coming then it means head gas kit needs to be replaced .... also get the radiator serviced.

Salam.

What documents should be checked before the purchase of an Amnesty scheme cleared JDM vehicle, which is now ISB registered? Imported JDM's have some sort of custom clearance certificate I think, what about these cars?

CerwinVega (CerwinVega) 2014-10-02 12:02:43 +0500 #463

Dear @afnansjfayaz
If its registered then most probably its ok ..... get the file checked through isb excise office ..... in documents there is a assurance bond with assurity that car is completely owner responsibilty and not have been previously used in any terror activity .... appraisal paper ..... fbr payment receipt ..... duty paid receipt in bank .....
Custom stamps on all papers

For amnesty cleared vehicle, get a photostat of the papers and go to the concerned custom office which cleared the vehicle.
Note challan number through which duty was paid. Verify it from NBP branch. This is very Important.
If excise has released the book, then the above mentioned is irrelevant

Its been quite a while now so I assume if exicse still has not released the book then something is fishy No.

Haroon_Tarar (Haroon_Tarar) 2014-10-03 07:48:45 +0500 #466

That's not necessary. If the clearing authority is Islamabad, then you may get the NOC/verification letter early to have the registration book released. For other cities, it is taking time.
The amnesty data is being computerized and excise offices across Pakistan will be given access for verification on spot.

If car is airbags open repaired then 9.75 and if total genuine then 10.50 is the maximum limit

huzaifa.haroon (huzaifa.haroon) 2014-10-05 15:48:31 +0500 #469

No Airbags are safe!
All chassis is original just fender is dented from outside and painted rest its all original !
And a total genuine car costs more then 12

CerwinVega (CerwinVega) 2014-10-05 15:54:06 +0500 #470

I think then it can fetch 10.5 -10.65

Hi, last day while peeping under the engine I noticed my cultus is missing fly wheel cover and accumulated lots of dust. Can I get it from local shop or have to visit montgomery road? How much does it cost and how to clean fly wheel before installing it?
Thanks!

Dear @umar021
Only new gear box bmw is recommended in diesel otherwise not recommended .... secondly thesd are old cars and needs perodic maintenance quite often so you need to spend a lot of money to keep it ... I will recommended you to buy a 2011-12 ? Model premio f package or prius or lexus ct200h .....

CerwinVega (CerwinVega) 2014-10-15 17:38:54 +0500 #476

Dear @nasirjavaid
This is not a big issue and you dont need to specially visit montgomery road.... actually a good mechanic close to you can resolve this issue

nasirjavaid (nasirjavaid) 2014-10-16 01:04:26 +0500 #477

Thanks @cerwinvega bro, I will soon visit my mech. Much appreciated.

Not sure about the showroom, but the market is full of thieves. I've had a few bad experiences there!

Another Query... After purchasing my Cultus VXR 2007 I took it to my mechanic and asked to inspect it.. Car has 78000 on ODO (don't know if meter has been reversed or not). He checked and said to change the timing chain and its bearing to be on safe side and also service the breaks. Total cost will be 4-5K. I hear a very slight chhan chhan (like ghungroo) sound from engine and suspect it could be of water body bearing.

I discussed with my brother which also knows some stuff regarding vehicles and he said leave it ... its mechanic's trick to rip us off. I checked all wheels one by one by putting them on jack and can here slight leather/disc touching sound when moving tire...its only on 1 specific point...

Kindly suggest what is best to do... also if need to change parts, which genuine parts should I get...

Also Idle RPM on petrol is near 1300-1500 while on CNG its 700-900

Thanks alot in advance.
