Tips for Baleno

[xenerking]

where does it go?

[margallar]

the white paste is a mix of oil and water, when the source of water is gone, no more of this paste is generated.

what is already present, gets cleaned away by collective action of the oil splashing around and the heat + PCV system working, the moisture is removed via the exhaust

[xenerking]

mean the paste will mix up with the oil and then moisture contained in that paste will vent out?

to me its kinda risky n tricky, i would like to wash/clean the milky/paste as much as i can using petrol or acetone etc, then let it dry reassemble and pour fresh oil to be used max 1000/1500 km.

reason: the oil-water mixture losses its lubrication capability and can damage the precious metal, so why take risk.

[margallar]

what i was reffering to, you leave it alone only when the leak is tiny, like a welch plug.

It happened on a cultus once and the paste was gone within 40-50km

the engine was not taken apart

the paste is a very tiny percent of the oil and dissolves very slowly

My baleno 2004 has following issues kindly recommend solution also propose where the proposed solution can be done in Islamabad or Rawalpindi if possible.

1.When car is hot, on very low RPMS car jerks especially in second gear. And get normal when clutch is pressed and released once or twice. Mostly happenes on low rpm in first and second gear. I am using a side coil system, also changed the other coil system because mechanic thought with side coil system the issue would go, but it did not.

1. Car gives blueish smoke and reduces oil in cold start. The rate of reduction is very small. But it still reduces oil. What would be problem? Should I go for overhaul of the engine or swap it with 1.6 engine. What is recommended. Kindly let me know . thanks a ton in advance.

So I have decided to sell the car after getting it fixed. But I am little confused what to buy next. Either buy some city/civic in 1 million budget or go for new Alto. But I didnt like the drive of Alto. Any suggestions/thoughts please. Thank you.

[abid110]

an old civic will itself be a mountain of small problems. on selling a Baleno, the amount will buy you nothing. you wil not enjoy teen dabba alto 660 after driving a sedan like Baleno.

So what is the option I am left with it. I thought of Liana but I test drove one but didnt like it. An up model EFI cultus probably. I dont know really what to do.

[xenerking]

considering the future fuel hike expected, i wud suggest u to go for a fuel friendly car..

jdm 660cc cars prove to be money pit after few years with AC troubles all along...

look for wagon R in gud shape for city commuting or a city 2006/7 in pristine condition after rigorous search n evaluation

[adidas]

Thank you but I was referring to PKDM Alto would that be troublesome too. Although I know it wont have any driving pleasure after baleno as I have one AGS at my home.

So this is the latest picture I drove the car today for about 25kms with AC, nothing happened it didn't heat up and this is the engine oil cap after I parked the car. Mechanic said it's ok you can drive it without a problem. Any thoughts on this

Anyone Please

[margallar]

seems good. clean up your pcv valve and keep monitoring, even good engines make that cream if you check on a an engine that has not warmed up.

continure to monitor coolant level.

Quantify the coolant loss over number of days or kilometers

[margallar]

btw, if anyone is swapping a baleno, i might be interested in the original engine and wiring

Aoa, Hassan Bhai.
Recently I got change fuel pump with Qabli one. Car pick became good but problem till exist. I discussed with other mechanic. He told me that observe that when same problem occurs you should switch off the car and reinsert key and start again and if problem resolve and accelerator work again then it’s mean you fuel pump is not working properly and install new one instead of qabli. Tomorrow when I driving and when same problem occurs, I practiced the same and it got better result. What is your segregation pls?
