Yes I got 1 year warranty for them. I know it will never be used.

Am using hankook optimo in my corolla gli 2012 model as well. They are superb.

Dear all,

I want to purchase Santro Club GV.
As dealerships are dissolved and production has been stopped many years before, pls tell me what are the issues which are to be faced to proper maintain this ride in these circumstances.
Appropriate response is highly appreciated.

@prof.rizwan
Go ahead just make sure u buy a well maintained ride. If you don't have expertise take someone with you. A well mantained santro will not let you down i can bet that....

Good car, spares are available in the Market. Go a head. Depending on budget, buy a low mileage and latest model car like 2007-2008

Initially triggered by my younger bro (M-Tech Auto), further strengthened by Usman, Now i am hunting a Santro Executive GV aroung 600ks, to act as a spare go-to-store car. It should be Not Accidental, Not Body Worked, Good Suspension, perfect engine, and strictly GV as it is supposed to accommodate my A/V system.
If any brother has worth of a vehicle, please ping me (H)

Hi.

On my way back from murree from motorway i hit a bump and now i am having a sound from the front wheels on crossing 60km/hr . I think its the bearings that are messed up i changed them 6 7 months back and costed me around 1800 each china but i want to go for the originals now . Does anyone has any idea of the cost of new genuine front bearings and should i get both front bearings changed or only one will do the job?

Regards
Khan

To make sure its wheel bearings from which you getting sound go to the speed in which you get the sound and shift the gear to neutral and still you hear the sound its wheel bearing..... will be advice able to change both the bearings instead of just the damaged one

Friend, not only petrol but also your CNG mileage is low. I guess you got the FF CNG? Right? minimum it should do around 130km.

What is the tire size on your car? Do you feel the car heavy or it runs smooth? For how long you have been driving this car? do you use 5th gear often? have you washed/cleaned throttle body?.. with low mileage on both CNG and petrol I don't see any problem with the settings...its either tires, your driving style or a bad sensor.

Low mileage on petrol

Hey friends AOA,

I recently own a santro club GV. It's 2006 model and driven up to 1 lakh KM. Over all my experience with Santro is good. But I have facing a problem with mileage on petrol. It's giving me 8 km per liter with AC within city. I have recently changed engine oil (Zic High flow), oil filter, air filter and plugs as well and proper tuned it up. and then I went for computerized setting. They changed one sensor. and set rpm etc with the help of scanner (computer). But it's still giving me the same mileage on petrol. and it's mileage on CNG is almost 90 km per cylinder with AC within city which is good i think. In my opinion it's only petrol setting problem.
Please suggest me a good mechanic in Lahore who can adjust petrol setting well, except "Hyundai Motors Township". They are not efficient enough.

As per my own experience I think 90Km with ff CNG is just about right for Lahorians atleast, I know Islamabadians wont agree with me but that's true. For petrol issue, My car kinda behaves the same way on petrol it dose not cross 10km/l without ac in city driving. I think you should get your injectors cleaned, that should fix this issue as you have already taken alternate necessary measures.....
