Guys the radiator is fine. the gasket is gone for sure. because there are minor traces of engine oil in a freshly filled radiator. and once the engine is started up constant flow of bubbles can be seen in radiator.

Is it worth getting this engine repaired gasket changed/head phased etc? will it be good once it is fixed or after some time it will go back to heating up?

Should i get new engine(head assembly) from bilal gunj? if yes... how do i make sure the engine i am buying is good and not repaired or used for 200k~300k km. I came across horror stories that after people got engine from bilal gunj either it's gasket blew in a month or so... or it was reducing engine oil.

Lastly do you guys know a good mechanic in lahore that can either repair or do the engine swap?

Thanks for help.

Guys i have mira 15/18
Just completed my 80k kms.

Which oil grade should I be using now?

Any recommendations?

Using 0w20 previously

[getmoa]

better to focus on CVT rather the mobil oil.... keep on using 0W20

[moiz.shah624]

Which CVT oil should I use now? And how to check if something is wrong with the CVT?

[getmoa]

Don't take too much of hassle

Nothing goeswrong with CVT of mira unless you had fiddled

CVT is transmission oil that must be change after every 50000 KMS. You must use Toyota genuine CVT-FE grade.

Just got my car engine oil change and he cleaned the engine compartment with air now engine light and car VSC and Check Engine light is ON
So anyone having solution, although i am searching on internet but if someone has experienced himself please post immediately

[moiz.shah624]

Okay thankyou soo much going with 0-w20 then and not touching CVT

[rayyan.mmakki]

[rayyan.mmakki]

Just go and buy Toyota TC CVT fluid (not even FE, FE is cheaper and might work as well but TC is more sheer stable and hopefully will last longer)
I bought same and happy with my choice. Don’t follow recommendation of any oil seller whatsoever he says that zic etc are compatible just buy TC -CVT Toyota and it comes in 4L packing and actual quantity required is lesser
Use the remaining amount for washing CVT parts like filter and also tell mechanic to wash filler pipe with it as well before actually pouring the cvt fluid in car.

Ok guys this was a very rare experience and might come with you guys as well so solution is that u must have OBD2 scanner for resetting engine light
Whereas the traction control light went off by just switching off and on the ignition while driving

[crossfirex]

Anyone having any idea which OBD2 scanner is best and cheapest? I want one which must be compatible with both Suzuki Swift (2013) and Mira EiS (2013). If someone can share link of AliExpress or Daraz etc!!

[getmoa]

You are mistaken, FE is better than TC and after 2012 model of MIRA ES, all are having FE. Viscousity matters a lot w.r.t consumption and it plays significant difference on mileage & jerks in transmission + sound.

[crossfirex]

Bro go to market and see the price difference and check on internet as well
The mileage difference will come in very cold areas
But keeping higher temperature in view in most parts of our country more sheer resistance oil is more important

[getmoa]

ahhh don't want to get in debate.

Well, advance formula will always be sold expensive.

There's no impact of temperature as flashing point is way up. Thus, in cold weather it still in beneficial state.

[crossfirex]

Bro i also dont want to get involved in this debate because i have been in this viscosity relationship since long time due to my profession and even then I researched before deciding between tc and fe. Flash point is not important in lubricant more important is the viscosity and sheer resistance and once u urself accept that tc is advance formula
Anyhow the buyer should himself research before purchasing and he will get the answer

Bhai go for ELM 327 Bluetooth V 2.1 OBD2 costs around 500~1000. I have used it on Mira works perfectly.

[crossfirex]

Actually I did some research and mainly there are some issues with iOS and v2.1 so have to make a careful choice thats why i was asking if some expert can directly share the link instead of hit and trial method
