I'm not satisfied with these spacers, ill continue and tell you what i did to get rid of them....

kazmi_muzammil (kazmi_muzammil) 2011-05-13 15:50:18 +0500 #282

Added new studs and Nuts to the car

So no replacement comes within the near upcoming years....

kazmi_muzammil (kazmi_muzammil) 2011-05-13 15:56:43 +0500 #283

The lower oil pan removed out as oil was leaking too much from it due to damaged gasket....

And here you go, here is the new steering pump, didn't go for seal replacement, and followed by new genuine axles.. no Kaablis

And this is all.. heavy to the pocket but indeed gave my car more grace and somewhere nearer to achieving a trouble free City .. =P

Finally, getting the car done....

Saif traders is indeed a big THUG. Shows you so much smuggled variety of tires that you forget what you actually want. Swears on rock hard tires that they are made for pakistani roads.

Same is the case with Rims. Has so much shiny but crappy variety that people feel at first that this is the place to go.

And I must say, what you have spent on the drivetrain and steering, would make you feel cherished for the coming 5 years atleast.

And Please dont sell it. You've put so much effort, time and money in it. So many ideas associated to it. A 660k figure wont pay for all that. Also what would you buy afterwards if you do get a handsome amount. Prices are sky high and people regret each day for upgrading to newer models. Only beacuse they had a good offer and thought of upgrading.

@rustam54 : Your right bro

This is a beware message for all Pakwheeler members. Yaar Saif trader naa jaana, this is the second time they cheated me.......

First they sold me Mitchellin tyres in 2008 which lasted for only a month on my coure and 1 blew out while the remaining ones had bubble formation on their outer ends..

When i went for a RECLAIM of their so called guarantee,

They decided to give me a refund for additional 8000 ruppees while i had spent 17000 already on tyres that were just 1200 km driven till then....

My dad forced me to buy tires from them this time since he said that Mr Saif had changed his ways of doing business...

But after this experience, i have black listed this guy forever in my list and will never buy any stuff from this man..... He is a sh*T head...

man. this world is full of ripoffs. saif traders have got their adverts behind every rickshaw in lahore they use those installment packages to lure customers into their scams. the work you just did is excellent. btw bro whenever you change the tyres try to get bridgestone potenza.

I bought Nexen tires from them in 4 installments though, the total figure was somewhere around 20,000 and i payed up 5,000 per month, so far i think i have done 15000 km + - and the tires are great, installments ended six months ago, it has been nearly upto a year. No such bad experience......

You should know yourself what you have to chose, otherwise, these kinda things happen man.

i dun know much about SAIF traders much however my friend got his tyres installed from SAif traders and they got burst after some 2k KMS. they didn approve his claim even....

margallar (margallar) 2011-05-16 04:19:52 +0500 #295

why dont you get that painted to prevent rust and oil contamination in the future

star2 (star2) 2011-05-16 07:15:02 +0500 #296

@ahmad_z
well, that's a strange thing....Everything is going good till now with me. Let's pray it stays this way ...

margallar (margallar) 2011-05-18 14:28:06 +0500 #297

was the car on the canal road at abt 4 today. i am dead sure i saw you bicoz of the golden colour and the rims.

kazmi_muzammil (kazmi_muzammil) 2011-05-18 18:24:28 +0500 #298

ahan..yea i was at canal road... ... Wasn't in a good mood at that time since today the car started taking heat on AC... So tomorrow going to get it checked. I suspect choked thermostat since there is no bubble formation in radiator water bottle which could indicate head issue.....

Its wierd, every month i plan for a paint job and something stupid comes up...Jeez...

Anyways...HID's are done... and today there was an additional scratch added to my car on the same door my bro labelled....

I just hope my investing into this car turns out good...
