What is this dhammar?

Road building material

[rajaahmed96]

Road building material is to be used in car?

Yes a thick layer of dhammar acts as under coating and even dumps noise from entering cabin also doesnt chip of if car scrapes on road

[rajaahmed96]

Well this thing is new to me never heard of it or seen it. Although have used Berger Auto Shield and Rustoleum products.

[humayun.chughtai.7]

The product you used is a readymade type thing whereas I took more khuwari to prepare it myself at home.
Basically both are same things.
Dhammar is solid form of Tar coal basically. It gets dissolved in petrol & then we mix oil paint in it for better adhesion & protection.

@humayun.chughtai.7 how ? 7a engine are with "4e/5a" injectors??
that means saller had changed the injectors before selling it to u. or does it originally come with 4e/fa ?

[chbilalnasar]

May be the sidewall was rubbing with inner bends of fender?

[humayun.chughtai.7]

nopes ... no rubbing issue.

[humayun.chughtai.7]

Brother injectors weren't at fault, they were stock injectors. I somehow got confused & thought that these are not original injectors of 7a.
Later on, I searched the part number & came to know that they are just from different region otherwise are stock.

Some glimpses from my recent tour to Swat Valley, went till Malam Jabba as its road is now fully carpeted newly-built, back in Feb 2018, it took us 2.5 hours to cover those 35 kms, and this time we did it in just 55 minutes.

Malam Jabba top, I was surprised to see alot of tourists, as it is off-season.

On the way to Malam Jabba, you can see the road is tap-o-tap

About yesterday ...
Battery was showing signs of weakness from last 2 weeks & it finally gave up yesterday..

so got this new one.

[rajaahmed96]

Isn’t it bit small. Corolla takes 65 one.

[humayun.chughtai.7]

The one with 65 amp got big fatty terminals, not compatible with the oem terminals. And this size is fine. Was using same size same brand previously.

65 amp size is recommended for diesel versions.

Why not dry battery?

[humayun.chughtai.7]

We dont really have options for Dry Batteries here. All the so called dry batteries avalaible here are actually maintenence free batteries & they are not worth it

I already had a very bad experience with Daewoo MF battery, it gave up within 8 months.

[sameerulhaq064]

Dry batteries usually last around 1.5 years for me.

[pwuser155177635611]

Yes life of dry battery is less as compared to acid battery

[rajaahmed96]

Not for me atleast, Hankook MF lasted 3yrs in my old Corolla 2007.
