When ever I rev our 1300cc swift past 2.8k rpm it starts making a 'continuous high pitched whoosh' sound..something like a thousand samurais slicing the air with their katanas or something. Jokes aside, The sound would increase with the revs and when i drop the accelerator immediately, it would make a whoosh sound again and just idle normally.
Note that it is not a squeak as those usually originate from the timing/serpentine belt. It seems to be coming from the intake plenum. Mileage is 100k , oil changed recently, timing belt changed an year ago, new gasket as well. I have to take this thing on a long trip in 3 days so for peace of mind I need some advice.
Is there an alternative to the Maruti 800? A friend of mine is looking for an extremely cheap to run and fix car for around 1.5M. While I do advocate old Japanese cars in that budget - if his need is basic A-B motoring at the lowest possible cost - maintenance wise and with fuel - is there any other option that I am forgetting?
Does anyone know how exactly this is supposed to work? They haven’t really started brand new imports again right?
Pricing seems relatively fine in the grand scheme of things, given how 10/15 year old cars are still pretty expensive in our market
A guy advertises a mileage blocker on the quick site saying that his device blocks the vehicle mileage from changing on the odometer. Is it legal to advertise stuff like this?
Bought a 2007 (Reg 2011) Vitz SCP90 (Mileage 180K+) for the family (will be used by my father). Seems to be in good condition but had some new owner repairs/replaces done to have a free mind.
