monitor your car for some days if the smokes comes again then there is an issue. Also last time kab oil change kerwaya tha aur tunnning krwai thi? agar tim hogya he to dono kaam krwayen

[Massive_One]

Guys aaj maine apni car 2 weeks ke baad start ki to car sey thora smoke nikla bilkul kam quantity mai lekin jaise car ko start karke thora time shora to smoke khatam hogaya. Kiya yeh serious issue to nai ?

nahi, it's normal. kafi din khari rahi hai car to carbon buildup ho sakta hai exhaust main .. don't worry. if the car is not giving smoke on every startup, it's nothing to worry about.

One more thing i got my car coolant flushed in 2018 with zic coolant I think 4litre
Now should i also get it changed because in 8 years of having this car i have totally driven it 53000km and as I remember i never ever poured tap water in radiator or reservoir
Always used coolant and then upon reduction in level added Air conditioner distilled water (that too carefully collected to avoid any sort of impurities)
Actually i want to avoid all sorts of extra expenses but in a month or two i have to take my car from Karachi to Punjab thats why want to do all necessary maintenance
So do i need to flush fresh coolant? Today showed it to the best ustad of 3S he was saying by checking the liquid color in reservoir that no need!!!

[saqibhassan95]

Zic hasn't mentioned coolant change intervals
So in such cases, you can consider manfacturer recommendation
And paksuzuki recommends 40k/2 years

Still I think you can change later on anytime this year, it's not urgent

No it is only 7 thousand driven since 2017 and it looks just as a new brand car. But unfortunately this part of the bumper ruins all the beauty of the car

Do u have rubbing polish get 100Rs small bottle from car painter and just rub it thoroughly and rigorously using microfiber or some vest and u will see around 80% of this mark will fade may be 95% even
Just before typing this message i was doing same with my car yes at around 00:30 AM
I bought it yesterday as well and always keep it in my inventory

[Proverbial_Slang]

It's not luck. We've been using Guard filters since the early 90s in various vehicles including Diesels. There's a thread on oil filters in Pakwheels. It's worth a read.

Buying VIC or anybo they brand is a risk because there are too many counterfeits.

Buy from Guard directly and ensure a certain quality.

If you're using green coolant,replace after 70,000kms. If it's any other color, that means it's okay for 100,000km. I personally have never used zic coolant so I don't know which color it is.

[harishaf]

get it painted it will cost you 3000 max for the whole bumper

[Thinking]

guys any news on the new swift? when is it coming? any pricing and variants details?

[crossfirex]

Bro what mileage ur swift gives inter city?

[crossfirex]

I think other than some Elite German companies Zic makes the best coolant( as well as oils) Suzuki 3s also recommend Zic if u are not buying their own coolant.

Today I will be buying Bando Accessory drive(commonly known as Fan Belt) and AC belt and Zic gear oil 2 litres (75w-85) and will also try to find Genuine Oil filter in lowest possible price otherwise thinking to go for same VIC if its mesh value(in microns) is same as genuine filter

@saqibhassan95 so what u say my purchase list is ok? Both quality and Quantity (gear oil)

[muhammad.talha3001]

I'm not saying they make bad coolant. I'm saying that each coolant is of a specific type and has a specific replacement interval. The old green coolants designed for copper/brass radiators needed to be replaced at 70,000kms. The newer ones made for steel/aluminium radiators have different chemicals and can last 100,000kms easy.

[Proverbial_Slang]

Coolants are color coded due to their ingredients and their usage is not dependent on the type of radiators, rather the type on engine block.
For M Series engines, green coolant is recommended and comes stock from factory as well.
Both colors should never be mixed or will result in a gel like substance in the cooling system.

[muhammad.talha3001]

I've never heard that. I was always told that coolants are used based on the radiator type and that using the wrong coolant can corrode the metals in the radiator, causing leaks.
Please elaborate

[saqibhassan95]

saqibhassan95 so what u say my purchase list is ok? Both quality and Quantity (gear oil

Yes It's ok
Just make sure that you pour complete rated gear oil quantity, 2.2L rather than 2
@mohsan87 has changed 1-2 times previously
please guide, did you pour 2 or 2.2?

[crossfirex]

I think even after flushing 0.2 litre must remain in the system

[bilal.imtiaz]

JazakAllah khair

[saqibhassan95]

I think even after flushing 0.2 litre must remain in the system

as far I know, and from my experience, manual transmissions always take complete rated quantity,, which is 2.2 litre in our case, unlike engines, where the dry fill and service fill quantities are different
so ensure that you fill till filler plug, zic 75w85 is 1k/L, will cost you 1k more, it's worth spending

[crossfirex]

3s told me to bring only 2 litre and I bought only 2

Same is the case with our mira I think for it its more than 3 litre but I bought 3 litre

I bought them yesterday ab dobara market janay ki himmat nahi hai
