I recently faced the problem of ac not working as expected. When I got the problem tested, from the agents it was said to be an issue related to the compressor (decreased in revs).
When I searched arround I found the issue to be a common one and the durable option was to change the valve in compressor or to replace the compressor.
With some help from this forum itself I was able to locate compressors belonging to 2 makes.
1. Made in Japan/ Denso
2. Made in Taiwan
Now the warranty of the 2 products are similar. But in many posts the quality aspect of the product was more positive towards Made in Japan part.
When I inquired around for the quality and durability, the answer I got from most ac repairers is that, for Premio in general the compressor starts to fault in about 4 to 5 years regardless of it's make and would require to be replaced.
Can anyone confirm or defy the above with facts?
(I have not received any records related to an ac repair from the previous owner and I'm the second owner)
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.
