Hi Swifters:)
Detailed 3 days story;
Sunday: Car done 1500km, went for a tune-up, i was the first one there, and i got the most attention:) Downside, their manager is off on that day, and no work was done, except for tightening nuts/bolts. They put the blame on sunday, that it's a slow day, that their generator was not working etc.
I got the air filter and engine bay cleaned from a car wash at last lol. They took the free 1st tuning coupon, and i felt guilty giving it after wards. The head mechanic told me using any other engine oil rather than Suzuki one voids the warranty too-dafuq-
Sunday night: I was going to Islamabad from Faisalabad, so i brought a friend along who is familiar with Islamabad areas.
It was tough to get petrol because of the price hike, but AlhamDullillah this Caltex pump was kind, and i got the tank full for 1800 rs.
Motorway travel Sunday: My speed range was 110-120kmp/h and i touched 130 once in a while since we were busy talking and listening to arabic songs lol.
When i reached Islamabad, we went further to Thetral road(near Serena hotel) and i was amazed to see that i covered 330 km in 18 litres of petrol with A/C on fan speed 1/2. The needle was dot on half, and i usually get petrol filled until auto-stop.
Monday: me, dad, friend and dad's friend decided to go to Murree, and it was my first time there.
The car's pick sucked uphill, and it was quite irritating. It found it hard to climb in 3rd gear and i was disappointed.
At least i beat a vitz on the way up, but that was quite close too!
Way down from Murree: It started raining like crazy, and honestly, the road grip was super duper!
Way back to Faisalabad: the fuel average sucked, since i was driving at 130/140 mostly since i wanted to reach Faisalabad before 11pm since trucks were allowed in the city after that.
I got beaten by a City on the way back and that was annoying as f***.
Max speed achieved was 160kmp/h on fifth gear.
Got proper tune up done today from Suzuki today, and i wasn't charged for it. The spark plugs seemed a bit dirty to me, and i bought Caltex fully synthetic 5w-30 today for 3,315. Manager told me using any other brands DOESN'T void the warranty and that made me smile:)
Enjoy!
