When i turn the key to acc all the symbols appear on switch board and after few seconds they disappear apart from these shown in the pic. When i turn the engine on these also disappear. Is it normal?

That's Good! MA SHA ALLAH

~35K is a decent odo reading, provided auction grade and auction sheet are good and verified.

Bro, I would advise to go for complete routine, regular check-up / maintenance of your ride, and follow the schedule regularly, however engine oil change along with oil filter is a must after every 5K Kms.

My ride is currently at ~22.5K Kms. I will go for its complete regular check-up / maintenance at 25K Kms, IN SHA ALLAH, and perform at least following min. tasks:

Engine oil change along with change of oil and air filters
Inspection, cleaning or replacement of spark plugs (which ever applies)
Throttle body service / cleaning or just inspection (which ever applies)
Inspection of Catalytic Converter (Cat Con)
Brakes Service, along with replacement of brake pads, if reqd.
Wheel Balancing / alignment (or if I change rims / tires early, then I will perform it along with that, and skip at 25K Kms)
Tightening of all Important nuts and bolts
Inspection / Check-up of suspension
Lubrication / Greasing of parts, which require it
Change of AC / Cabin Filter
Complete AC inspection / service (and if it becomes very hot in just coming weeks, then I may go for it early)
Change of CVTF (I will not go for complete transmission service, along with cleaning / replacement of transmission filter. I believe, its not reqd. now. Will just go with transmission oil change IN SHA ALLAH)

And some others, if I could recall / remember...

IN SHA ALLAH, I will share all the details here.

OK. Instead of semi synthetic Shell 5w-30, I would sincerely advise to switch to Total Quartz 9000 Future series 5w-30. Its Fully synthetic, and meets all the latest API and ILSAC Criteria, and also, your Vitz criteria. You may also consider ZIC A+ 5w-20. These both are best for bucks, and reputed brands.

Just ensure that oil is 100% genuine and original, and change it along with genuine, OEM Oil filter or Leppon Oil filter, after every 5K Kms.

Toyota Genuine Oil filter will cost somewhere around 725-750 PKR / unit.

Yes. Its normal. For reference, you can also see similar pictures above, in my posts.

Actually im in quetta and not able to find a reliable mechanic. Previously i had a suzuki cultus which was maintained by suzuki authorized workshop. Actually that car never troubled me much to visit any mechanic.

Alright. But for Vitz, you will have to do some homework, otherwise, some abc mechanic / garage will do experiments on your ride, and may ruin it.

pwuser155009269518 (Shehzad) 2019-03-20 19:39:07 +0500 #477

Yes you are totally right. That is why im very careful. Another problem im facing here in quetta is finding genuine engine oil. Here we have iranian open barrels of mobile oil. Scammers fil this mobile oil in branded oil containers.

anon35615524 2019-03-20 19:48:28 +0500 #478

Well... Then that's a severe issue.

In that case, I would strongly urge to order online and buy from some reputed websites, which sell genuine products, like Daraz. For Zic, you can order online via their official website; http://zicoil.pk/ I think, they offer free home delivery.

Best suggestion regarding any product (be it engine oil) would be, directly contact the company! They have their official, local websites and contact details are there. Just call them, mention your city i.e. Quetta, and discuss the problem you are facing. e.g. regarding engine oil, you can call Total Parco helpline and ask them to guide you about their biggest retailer / wholesaler / dealer in Quetta, which sell the products.

They will very happily guide you. Their products will get sold and you will also do their publicity, what else would they need?

I believe, there will definitely be reputed shops and markets in the beautiful city of Quetta, which sell genuine products. You just need to figure them out.

The F-7 one is a notoriously known for playing with the gauge, it was even temporarily closed by the AC Islamabad for meter tempering

Ok. I did not know it. The time I had used it, it was good so thought of sharing it here (as I believed, it will be good). Or may be, I did not fall a victim / prey to their "Haera Phaeri".

Let me edit the parent post, on a safer side, and thanks for pointing this out.

pwuser155009269518 (Shehzad) 2019-03-21 15:57:30 +0500 #481

What about toyota engine oil?? How is its quality?

anon35615524 2019-03-21 17:36:01 +0500 #482

Well... Tbh... I would personally recommend to go for that brands which have specialities in Lubricants, like Shell, Total, ZIC, Kixx, Caltex Chevron, Mobil 1, Liqui Moly, Totachi, Mitasu, etc.

Toyota may be considered as last option, if no other reputed brand is available. By reputed, I mean experts in lubricants.

anon35615524 2019-03-21 17:40:25 +0500 #483

Toyota may be equally suitable as long as it meets the requirements, however, Toyota's main expertise are not in lubricants. There main specialties are automobiles, and they are good enough in them.

Regarding lubricants, why not go for that brands which have specialities and expertise in lubricants, and these are their main business (not side business)? And have unmatched R&D facilities regarding engine oils, greases, etc.

You may consider Toyota lubricant, if no other well-known brand regrading lubricants is available, and it may be considered as last option.

@basitali87 brother Can you please check your PM?

aunabbas_90 (Aun Abbas ) 2019-03-21 21:58:22 +0500 #485

I blv you live in twin cities. No renowed dealer or distributor over here. ?
And brother i think CAT covertor cleaning is recommended after 50K, or on a safer side you can do it at 40k,
Similarly CVT Oil change is also recommended at 40K.
U may please check and advise us as well.
