AoA all
I have 99 Baleno without power steering. I need advice on steering repair/replacement. In the past 18 months I've replaced the steering TWICE, once from Saeed (Gawalmandi, Rawalpindi) and once from this mechanic in Ahata Mihtu Khan. I guess I should also mention two repairs between the replecements... Whatever I do, the steering starts to rattle in a couple of months. I am tired of all this rattle coming from the steering and visiting mechanics every four months. What should I do? Where should I go? Should I try to get a brand new steering this time? Please help. Thanks.
Imran.

where is IACV located. am i pointing at right position???? i want to clean it up my self. any precautions which i should take??

[argtr65]

There is two small hose pipe connected to IAC valve beneath the throttle body, you can easily locate it. you will have to detach throttle body from inlet menifold for proper cleaning of IAC valve,however you can clean it by removing air hose from throttle body and just spraying wd 40 or carburetor cleaner into the port of iac valve.

By mistake,i have pointed out Idle air temperature sensor.Don,t get confused.

There is AAA workshop in Sadar,behind F.G cantt public school, there is a mechanic name Aslam he is very good in Baleno.

I have baleno 2004, the only issue in overhalling is that the power of the engine is reduced, coz mechnanical work is done on cyclinders and remaining things, so the horse power is little reduced. Remaing there is no issue in over halling.

If you go for the engine replacement than just make sure that engine is OK. Mostly people will say you for 1600cc. If you can afford 1600 cc than go for it as in 1 cylinder you get maximum 100 km locally.

A good mechanic will never advise you to replace engine, unless there is some complications regarding machining work,Baleno's engine is a very simple engine like other ordinary car,so don't worry.

1 - What is the tyre size?
2 - Did you ever replace steering column bushing / bearing?

Today I went for brake pad replacement as they were making sound by rubbing on the disk.
I told him him to clean and smooth the disks by sandpaper and installed new pads along with new tiny clips which hold the pads.
Brakes are fine but now i can hear a whistle like sound when i apply light brake. can anyone tell me about it?? will it go with time???

[MoizIrfan]

when engine main seal leaks. which oil leaks gear oil or engine oil?

[argtr65]

Definitely engine oil.

Yes,it could be,if there is no anomalies inbetween brake pad & disc.

Rough disc surface and hard brake pad liner are the source of whistling sound,Get them checked,if whistling sound does not stop after some times.

Do you observe engine oil reduction?

appreciated

now engine main seal & oil chamber also started leaking, any good silicon which u can recommend. oil leak is there in my baleno from day 1.

[argtr65]

I will never recommend you to use of silicon,its better to use original chamber packing and replace the oil seal with new one.
