Try 10W-40 if it reduces shift back to 20W-50 at next oil change.

@speedster_101
How the Alloy Rim's are performing that you bought from Metro for your Khyber?
What cost you paid for them?

speedster_101 2019-01-27 12:23:02 +0500 #1592

The alloys are performing great. Not even a single scratch till now, although its more than a year now and car has traveled 10,000 Kms with them.
I got them on 10 percent discount. The original price was around 15.5K.

Today I have got the worn-off studs of front right wheel replaced.
The mechanic and machinist advised me to get the kabli studs as desi ones won't last long.
The wheel bearings had to be replaced and luckily I found Japanese Koyo bearings this time. I have used them in the past and they last longer than Nachi ones. Koyo bearings have steel seals whereas Nachi has plastic ones. Normally the machinists remove the plastic seals and fill the bearing with unspecified grease which kill them. The Koyo bearings were installed with a press machine and without opening their steel seals.
Also got all 04 axle boots replaced as the earlier ones had cracks.

I have also ordered them. Metro Faisalabad didn't had any 12 inch Rim's in stock so i talked to their main dealer in Lahore and he has said that he will send them to Metro Faisalabad Tyre point outlet in some day's..
The price he told me is 14900/- RS.

speedster_101 2019-01-27 22:26:51 +0500 #1595

Nice. The price seems reasonable because everything is much costlier after increase in dollar.
Which design you have ordered?

hassantahir2 (Hassan Tahir) 2019-01-27 23:46:33 +0500 #1596

They only had 2 designs in 12 inch Rim's.
One were same like your's and other's were some 5 spoke Rim's but i didn't liked the design of those 5 spoke rims so i ordered same one's as you have on your Khyber.

They haven't given me any specific date though they just said we will contact you when the Rim's will reach Tyre point outlet in Faisalabad..

Before this i visited market they don't have any good designs (ajeeb hochon walay design available hain market me)...

speedster_101 2019-01-28 09:06:16 +0500 #1597

Yes, I also visited market two or three times before selecting the rims at Metro. In 12 inches, the market has carry dabba and taxi rims.
I hope you will like these new alloy wheels.
I am sharing year old pics of these alloys, captured at day these were purchased.

But i think engine is still a little loud than it should be what could be the reasons

babaralinawab (babaralinawab) 2019-01-29 19:12:12 +0500 #1604

Its more like a clinking noise
Pistons are standard
Helper rings were also used with piston rings

He wanted to go for the bore but i didnt have that much amount right now so went for the ring job

Sorry to say but u did a blunder. I did the same mistake in 2016 and rings screwed up the cylinder walls badly coz of those helper rings. I eneded up with gerenal overhaul after 7000kms only.
