Hi guys! I hope everyone is having great Ramadan. So, for last couple of months I started having trouble with my car. First with the wiring as when I bought the car the previous owner had all the wiring done with Jugar so my mechanic suggested me to get complete wiring done which I did and solved many issues which was in February.
Now since February till now I got some minor issues which was fixable but all the mechanic I showed my car, everyone suggested me to get engine overhaul as the car's engine makes a lot of noises and feels like a generator. Though the car runs fine without any issues but just this week I felt my car underpowered in initial 1 - 2 gears and also my AC compressor started giving me trouble. When I went to the AC guy and my electrician both suggested me to get an engine overhaul as getting the AC work done will not be solving anything as your engine is weak and clutch and pressure plates are gone!
I bought the car when it was on 77k on ODO meter and now its 120k. So my questions to the experts are.
Should I go for a complete engine overhaul or should I replace the engine? and if you're opting in for replacing the engine then how easy it is to find a good condition complete engine?
If you can please tell me how much the complete engine overhaul will cost vs changing the engine? (My mechanic told me to keep it 50k as a round off price before I think about overhauling.
Since my AC wasn't too good and I had to shut down my ac on signals and when I am slowing down the car as engine use to turn off so I am planning to get complete AC replacing. How much do you think it will cost?
I am planning to keep this car for another 2 years so how long this engine will stay with me if I get engine overhaul or replacing done?
I am in Karachi so if you guys know of any good mechanic for this work, please feel free to drop me the number.
Looking forward to get expert's advice as my daily running is 40-50 kms and I really want to have a solution now as I am dragging this matter for already 4-5 months but I guess its a time now.
Thanks in advance.
JazakAllah.
