Well guyz, to share some of my recent experience regarding the check engine light of my city...

What happened actually was that I noticed my car sorta struggling to idle in the morning while on CNG... The engine light came on, one of the very few times I've seen it come on...

I thought may be there was some issue with the engine oil i was using... FYI, I use zic HifLO...

The car behaved normal when at normal heat. However, I did notice a certain drop in power... It touches 160kmh on ac and cng without any problem but that day, I felt it struggle to reach 120kph.

Long story short, too it to my mechanic...

He checked the engine here n there, tuk tuk, duz duz and finally opened the air filter box...

man o Man, it was choked to death... I couldnt believe my eyes as it had been only 9000kms since I had changed it...

I got it cleaned and am gonna get a new one with the next due oil change inshallah...

he told me that engine light will come on when ur filter is choked and the car will have loss in power in trouble in idling...

The purpose is that, the check light of my car NEVER came on on CNG or petrol, unless some problem was there...

I don't think the light should come on anyway...

well, will beposting here tomorrow in detail inshAllah... missed alotta days due to kharaab internet...

that is right! probably the most delicate thing about the idsi is its intake and exhaust system. the reason being that it has only 8 valves. its already out of breath most of the times and if the air filter is choked, it would certainly not bear the load and will show the check engine light... and yes you are right , the light does not show if nothing is wrong. there have been long spans that this light shows up in my car. now though, its more usual because of a clogged cng kit (due to oil). will get it done and the light will be gone for long, hopefully...

Just got back .... I was away due to my Nana Abbu's death, May Allah rest his soul in peace......

Caltex petrol is not working for me. i travelled 80% on highway and just as i reached home 610km, reserve light lit up. Tomorrow i will refill but i guess i will give me around same mileage as last time TOTAL gave me on 50% highway and 50% intercity. So, for me TOTAL is still the best
1. TOTAL
2. CALTEX
3. SHELL
and if u have none of the above available u can refill from PSO, as very few pumps in the country belonging to PSO have good fuel.......

@ fahad
Sorry to hear about death of your Nana Abbu. Praying for his 'Maghfirat' and 'Buland Darjat'.

JAZAKALLAH @ Rollonbigmama and @sheikh_wah
btw @sheikh_wah which petrol which r using, since u r mostly covering the same route as mine. I suggest u for a change just try TOTAL petrol from the pump newly opened after the Margalla hills (just prior to the old Toll plaza) situated on left if u r going from wah to rwp. Just try it once, and check if u can see any noticeable difference.

I have done a research on TOTAL pumps recently and here i come
1) Burhan pump which u already mentioned
2) In Margalla Taxial they have opened new pump recently (just where old toll plaza was located)
3) In ISB strangely they have only 1 pump on the Islamabad Expressway nearly Shakrial
4) In Rawalpindi, One is on 6th Road, second is on main Pirwadhai Road, third is on Sowan Camp, fourth is on Murree Road near Haleem Ghar, fifth is near Jhanda Cheechi
5) Then it comes just after Rawat is finished on GT Road from RWP-LHR
6) After Rawat, long pause and new pump is recently opened just before Deena (on left if u r travelling from RWP to LHR)
7) After Deena, it comes before LALAMUSA (precisely in CHAK PEERANA) on both sides of GT Road
8) Then in GUJRAT City they have a pump in GTS CHOWK

This is my research starting from BURHAN---GUJRAT. I will update it as i got to know some more destinations.

I m forced to use Shell as our company has given us Shell cards to utilize our fuel limit. I usually refill my car from Shell F-6/3 (Super Market).
