Querencia: The cars in my garage

Here's my APV, AKA Panda. >70K on the odometer and is mostly used as a family hauler. Quite reliable except for the fuel pump failing twice in 3 months last year. Quite spacious and roomy but equally hard suspension. Overall a good minivan
Do say Ma Sha Allah

Wow fuel pump is odd. Unless there was delay in fuel filter replacement, running car on low fuel habitually or of course some real bad batch of fuel or physical debris.

Sometimes car remains parked for extended period (at least 2-3 weeks). Between June 2017 and May 2018, car was only driven ~1500KM and remained parked most of the time.

to avoid fuel pump failure start the car every alternate day let it idle for 3 - 5 minutes and shut down. That will keep fuel purge valve alive working, failure of purge valve is tabooed as fuel pump by our ustaad class to change complete pump instead of buying purge valve which is a service item mentioned in service manual with a reference part number.

Which fogs are you using. Are they also fitted with projectors or can they fit one?

sameerulhaq064 (Sameer Ul Haq) 2020-02-23 20:03:05 +0500 #25

In the Baleno? I'm using cheap Chinese projectors.
Will be shifting to OEM Stanley fog lamps soon.

Imagine saying: Masood bhai dhuwaan buhat chor raha hai or Masood bhai ka head weak ho gaya hai.

Now try to decipher the words masood bhai.

sameerulhaq064 (Sameer Ul Haq) 2020-02-23 23:08:40 +0500 #31

No wait, there is, but it's mostly for show sha (please don't grill me for this)

capsat (ومن شر حاسد إذا حسد) 2020-02-23 23:12:01 +0500 #32

focus upon starting apv regularly to avoid abrupt fuel pump failure when parents are using for family touring.

xzap042 (xzap042) 2020-02-23 23:25:14 +0500 #33

What's the size of them? I'm looking for appropriate fog housing to fit projectors

sameerulhaq064 (Sameer Ul Haq) 2020-02-23 23:27:16 +0500 #34

These are 2 inch. Which car will you fit them in?

xzap042 (xzap042) 2020-02-23 23:32:44 +0500 #35

The old Cultus with new shape bumper. Obviously bumper will be modified to accommodate the housing.

sameerulhaq064 (Sameer Ul Haq) 2020-02-23 23:33:32 +0500 #36

Why not get the 2005 shape bumper? It has a round foglamp housing.
