Suzuki Alto PKDM 660 Owners Club

[IceCold]

Is the warranty period for new alto one year or two?

[voodoo]

yes its in two years or 40000km warranty...i have purchased extended warranty as well so that's 4 years or 80000km whichever comes first

[IceCold]

Ok thanks
On another note just a recommendation dont use 10W40 next time. As long as you are getting it done by Suzuki your warranty does not get void. I have a VXR and i changed my first oil to 0w20 from suzuki. Second oil is now due and i called suzuki to ask if 0w20 is available and they said it is. I will get the same as well. The reason i was inquiring about warranty was because mine is a year old so once the warranty was expiring i was looking to get oil change from filter house and not suzuki.

[voodoo]

sure... i did ask them for 10w40 but they didn't have it and they were like we will not recommend that oil etc etc..,,, will try at some other authorized dealer next time. btw does changing to 10w40 will make any significant change on the overall performance of the engine.
i am not that much concerned on the mileage as i get an avg of min 16 to max 16.3 and i think for an AGS variant its good enough...

[IceCold]

will make any significant change on the overall performance of the engine

For one you will notice change in engine sound. It reduces. I felt the difference in the ride. Secondly whether you feel any difference or not but 10W40 is too thick for this engine, Suzuki is just being Pak suzuki.

[voodoo]

ah ok... will try it out in the next oil change interval... if it is making the engine sound less then yes will put 10w20

[IceCold]

10w20

0W20 not 10W20

[voodoo]

ok...0w20

[voodoo]

they put this oil...

Can anyone tell me if AGS has any heatup issue in hot summer with heavy traffic???

[scholar.center]

It is too old oil. SG grade is an obslete in this category of oil... it has no engine cleaning ability. in long run may develop sludge... although this grade SG is mentioned in suzuki car manual along with 10w40 to be used. I suggest you to change this oil early like 3000 or less. Never wait for 5000km interval reading.
Instead you can use 10w40 sm semi synthestic deluxe brand by PS. You can feel diference in sound at idle along with properties of synthetic oil.

No, not at all. I have recently bought VXL and drove it almost 1000 KM. I tested it on every route even took it to changa manga from Lahore with full AC on in hot day. Not faced any problem.
Also kept it idling for 10-15 mins intervals while waiting for somebody again on AC on and no issues have been faced

Great job. Is this regular tire or donut tire?

[artist604]

kindly share total cost

[saad.ikram.5688]

It is not mine
I kept the picture to help other people get an idea how it will fit

I couldn't find the exact size which will fit

And cost of donut tire cost 2.5-4k max

[sleeper]

Aa much i remember the person who shared this, outlined the tire and cutted that thermopole accordingly... .it has to be donut tire

[shaikhrulez]

It is not mine I kept the picture to help other people get an idea how it will fit

Ok thanks for sharing buddy

[saad.ikram.5688]

Yes but donut tires comes in multiple sizes. If get an extra big one it wont fit and thermopole bhi kharab
