Only battery changed up til now.
Mechanic ko 2 baar dikhae hai, he sai brake oil okay hai aur engine oil bhi change krwanay ki zaroorat nahi hai abhi.
He said baaqi sab kaam oil change kay saath ho jaega.

Avg buri tarhan se girna shuru howa hai 8+ se 6 per aa gya hai even though I am using Hi-Octane from PSO (Agha Khan hospital wala).

Shadeed busy weeks guzre hain, coming friday free hai, In Sha Allah pori koshish hai kay max kaam krwa loun is baar chahay mechanic kuch bhi kahay.

One more thing, ye jo online services hain like mechanicustaad ye kaisi hain? Koi idea hai inka? Ya kisi pump per available hain ye services? Main chah rha houn kaam beshak thora mehnga ho jae lekn chouna na lagay.

What is the color of brake oil?
Hi-octane won't do anything don't waste money on it, I already told you what to do for best fuel average.
No idea about online services.

Dekh kr batata houn aaj color brake oil ka.
Difference in acceleration and a bit smoothness noticed by me after moving to Hi-Octane.

What's the max avg I can get out of this car if everything will be in mint condition?

[Salmaanawan]

10-11.

10-11.

A friend of mine managed 16 by limiting his speed to 60-65 on his daily commute, which mostly consisted of Islamabad's highways during peak hours. He didn't use any hypermiling techniques.

I managed 21 on my Civic Prosmatec by driving it at 70-80 on a 56 km leg of pure highway driving.

In mixed driving in traffic jams etc, the same Civic manages 11-12 with A/C and revving it to 4k+ for overtaking.

I don't understand how most people only manage 10-11 on most small 4 cylinder cars.

[OvaisAlam]

Great, 10-11 to acha avg hai kaafi.
Main taqreeban adhi fuel avg le paa rha houn abhi

Fuel filter ks company ka lagwaoun?

[nfssaad]

API SG is the correct oil grade for this engine.

API SN does not have the required zinc additives need for the older flat tappet engines.

[nfssaad]

i use caltex delo gold 15w40 in my civic, 1500 exi engine AND gearbox.

no problems at all, car is drive 230,000 km. no oil reduction or smoke

[OvaisAlam]

Most of the people recommended 10W40 so I will probably stick to it.

[nfssaad]

if you can find it in API SJ or less.

not more.

[OvaisAlam]

What are the options?
Btw, newer API grades are backward compatible too (as per my knowledge).
