then ur right.... i will check mine too..... but why user manual says 175x65 14?

zia1288 (Rao Zia Ur Rehman) 2018-10-15 10:38:45 +0500 #24

I don't know, but the difference in 175-65 & 165-70 is not too much.

Sir these cars a basically not brand new. They have been driven in Japan and the refurbished and exported to pakistan. You might see if you go to Jamshed Road and PIB colony area there are denter who are actually repairing completely accident cars.

Replacement bushes for both the sides will cost you about 5000. you need to replace these on both the wheels to bring both the wheels at equal alignment. after this replacement you will need to get the car realigned. I hope this is the issue as it is simple to solve.

Also Do use stock size tyres.

but my rim is 15 which needs to be 14....and this size is harm ful for suspension i guess....

luckycar (Muhammad) 2018-10-15 11:00:28 +0500 #28

in my car tyres are 175x65 14.....but the rim is 15. this is an issue... i was not aware with this but now i got to know and need to solve it.

ur right... i have personally seen repair work of many accidented cars....at many places....

any how... can u please tell me what does these bushes calld if i go to buy at the shop? if there is recommended brand, please let me know. also how much the cost of labor for these replacements?

lastly, if i do it after some time... .do u think this need to be addressed as soon as possible?

Bhai company recommended tyre size is the best. they have recommended this and designed so for a reason.

You just have to take the car to a good suspension repair shop they will settle out the matter themselves. The figure i quoted includes the Labour and the bushes. i changed the shock absorbers and all the bushes with it and it costed me around 4000 for each wheel including the Kabli Shock for my Lancer including labour.

But first let the guy check? Dont tell him anything just tell him the wheel alignment issue.

ok....i will visit and update...

luckycar (Muhammad) 2018-10-15 15:51:33 +0500 #31

ok i have just spoken to alignment guy.. he said he hadnt found any thing in control arm to replace....as he properly inspected the car from every angle and he said not to be worried......however, i will get it checked with the suspension guy in coming days to get it solved.....

omersiddiqui5482 (omersiddiqui5482) 2018-10-15 17:07:14 +0500 #32

Control arm is a different thing and this gadri is something every bit of the suspension is attached to..

luckycar (Muhammad) 2018-10-15 17:27:09 +0500 #33

so do u mean the issue is in gadri... may be bent or something like this...

Bhai i have also this wheel misaligned just like yours in my case its front right....
But this is after my accident and i noticed this a month ago when mud flap was touching it... Its been 7 to 8 months i have been driving and no issues took my cultus to 130 140 and it was pretty smooth.
I have done steering work but it is same as before...
So no need to worry, you can drive it
Ps i think your car might be accident from front...
I will share this with my dentor tomorrow and will share his thoughts here.

luckycar (Muhammad) 2018-10-15 20:48:01 +0500 #35

Dear bro
alhamdolillah there is no accident since i bought this car .....even i jacked up the car at the alignment guy and no sign of accident found......he said most probably the car have to pass through potholes which are mostly on karachi streets...so this could be a cause of this misalignment.
I will be waiting to.have ur feedback

sayedgulhassan (Syed Hassan Bukhari) 2018-10-15 21:00:06 +0500 #36

Bhai i dont think so, this should not be happening just by passing through pot holes....
Was this at the purchase of vehicle or you have noticed now?
Have you been abusing the car by rough driving on potholes?

luckycar (Muhammad) 2018-10-15 21:39:16 +0500 #37

Frankly i havent noticed when i bought this.....well few weeks ago i tried to refrain from un even road and many pot holes there but i has no option but to pass through ...may be it happaened that time...

omersiddiqui5482 (omersiddiqui5482) 2018-10-15 21:58:39 +0500 #38

Cars are designed to bear the pot holes. Gadri is either bent or there is something wrong with the rubber bushings if you are 100% sure the car has not been in an accident...

You can drive it the wheel won't come off but it is better to get it checked

luckycar (Muhammad) 2018-10-15 22:13:13 +0500 #39

True...i think i shud spare some time to get it checked...
