Suzuki Cultus Fan Club (2000-2016)

[pwuser15262980051]

I have just recently bought this car so I dont have much idea about its previous maint. I think I have to start from scratch. Overall condition is Okay, my running is long so I drive it on CNG with AC, which I keep turning off in heavy traffics. But its pickup with AC is slow and in lower gear sometimes gives jerks esp in 2nd n 3rd.

My suggestion to u is not to switch off and on a/c so frequently.
Cultus is very delicate and may cause damage of your dynmo cutout or some generator alternator issue during load shifts

When u will get time, get it scanning report via Efi ecu scanner. It will give u true picture of your car.

Anyways minor jerking is no issue but ideally there should be no jerks.

Also get it tuning after oil change which should include following jobs:
Cleaning of Spark plugs,plug wires and coils
Removal of oil from cng cylinder
Draining of oil from cng kit
Setting and tuning of car on both Petrol and cng

Insha Allah jerks will go

Which gear oil should i use for cultus efi 2008???

[brownrose78]

Please bhai jan, stick only to Pak Suzuki Gear Oil.
They know their machines better
My previous owner has not provided me manual so I am not sure about its exact grade and spec.

All r correct in recommending tyres, all r good

In my sincere suggestion, u might have family in this trip so buy Continental 175/70 R 13 Continental (German Brand) will be the ideal one and available at Metro stores in your city

For less sound, always read sound rating in decibel written on tyre like 67 db, 73db For exact sound rating in db of Continental CC5 or Cc3 or Cc6, u can ask @snakelegnd bhai or @paktyre bhai

[snakelegnd]

Continentals will suite u best, depending on ur budget. they are costly. If money constraint is a problem, Dunlop Touring series is quite good. Yokohama Adrive is an good option but u have to be careful, as they are less durable than Dunlop and Continentals. Dunlop and Continental are considered all terrain tyres while yokohama and michellin are preferred for City paved road drive.

@snakelegnd bhai,
Personally speaking I am not satisfied with Dunlop Touring in my cultus. Once it got punctuated in my office parking and I was busy in meeting so Just left for 3 hours. After that when I repaired tyre, it got bent, could not claim under warranty as steel radial get bent and due to car load(empty). This tyre disturbed all wheel balancing and alignment

2nd time same story happened in another tyre so after that MERA DIL KHATTA HO GYA DUNLOP SEY. APKA CONTINENTAL TO SHAKAL SEY LAGTA HAY ENGINEERED IN GERMANY

[snakelegnd]

Punctured tu her tyre ho sakta aha. But the problem increases when driving while its punctured(underpressure). Than the tyre gets deformed. As all the weight of the car is object to the piles so they break apart, thus deforming occurs. And always get ur punctured repaired with cold patch not the needle puncture not the iron puncting unregulated heat of the iron disturbs the elasticity of the rubber thus creating a bubble. Needle puncture break the steel piles thus resulting in deformation. Cold patch is the same procedure we use to get done while getting our cycle tyre tube fixed. Roughing the area, apply glue and than the patch lastly put pressure or hammer it to get it stick.
My personal driving experience of Dunlop Touring R1 is quite good w.r t to grip, less noise and lasted around 65000kms.

Hi,
since this season AC of the car engages at will. Mean after pressing the AC button, it doesn't start immediately but starts randomly anytime during the drive. Throughout on the motorway it kept engaging and disengaging at random intervals.. Sometimes it took up to 10 minutes before turning on and cabin started to loose cooling.
Button and contacts are fine so what could be the root cause?
Thanks

[pwuser15281387144]

This is button fault same happened with me and replaced the button now its working pretty good.

[nasirjavaid]

Thanks for reply. Will try it.
