hey all
there was this wierd problem in my santro that th driver side carpet started getting wet automatically, which when i checked turned out to be the radiator coolant water leaking. i went to the a/c guy and he told me that to solve this issue would result in dissconecting the heater water pipe. after which th heater would not work at all.
so temporarly i have had it dissconected but i just wanted to know that would this effect the overall engine performance ? and is it necessary to get the heater fixed.

hey all... just recently the floor matt of the driver side started to get soaky and wet, which after checking turned out to the coolant water leaking inside. i asked a mechanic and he said thet dashboard has to be opened up to check the leakage as it is comming from the heater pipes. so temp i have dissconected the heater. i need to know is it necessary to have the heater problem fixed or should i just let it be as we dont use the heater much. 2ndly i need to know if there is any good santro tuning palce/mechanic

I bought a santro executive 2005 about 5 months back. Overall i find it a sturdy car that provides fair amount of power when you need it and a comparatively stable and comfortable drive especially on long journeys. The only two things nasty are:
Fuel Consumption (my car is on petrol and does not do more than 11 without AC in local traffic)
and
Very less rear space (which makes rear passengers really screwed up)
@jamilakhtar
dude i did call mr. Ejaz from Awan motors and have fixed an appointment probably next week. Lets hope the consumption issue is resloved.

The minimum speed should be 70 and maximum 85 for best fuel economy

It will be resolved insha Allah.
