This looks like an issue with fuel pump. get it checked ASAP before it stops working completely

[aesthete]

I had a similar problem with my car. Eventually, the fuel pump broke down completely and I had to get it replaced.

TIP: You can buy just the motor of the pump and replace it in the old assembly instead of buying the whole thing. You will save around 2k without any side effects if you do that.

Have seen a couple of kia forte's(the successor to spectra) on the road here in chicago. I must say they look really good but it is highly unlikely that it will be coming to pakistan.

[spectra]

New axle pair costs 4000 Rs. AC gas around 1500 Rs. Power steering noise is not a big issue, it does no harm but noise only, and its common in high mileage cars

[aref]

It depends on how you drive your car.
polay polay chalatey raho....kuch nahi ho ga.

but sooner or later, you'll HAVE to replace them. There will be a time when you will be topping your car's oil level daily if you kept it in this condition.

[imrandahar]

not a big problem, its due to valve seal, in spectra there is no rocker n tapets its auto adjustable, agar valve seal kamzor hoo to rat ko ahista ahista thora sa oil girta rehta hai piston k ooper to subha first self p hee wo oil jaly ga thora sa dhunwa nikly ga phir theek hojae gi after 2 minuts not a big prob dear same prob to my car aik saal hogaya koi masla nhi hua abhi tak
