Hi Guys, One day when i was travelling in the highway, my engine overheated due to a blown radiator hose. After i got it fixed from my garage, they said they can see an oil coming from the radiator. They asked me to replace the Oil Cooler saying that its leaking transmission oil. I showed this to other two places afterwards just to make sure. Both places checked the engine oil by pulling the dipstick and opening the engine cap to see the colour of the engine oil. It was ok. Afterwards, they leaked some transmission oil from the sump and checked if there is water in it. Its also not there. As of now, no body from those two people are not sure if this is transmission oil or engine oil. What are your thoughts guys. Whats the best thing to do now. My vehicle is Vitz 2008 1300. (The layer on top of the image shows the oil, It's visible in the radiator cap as well.)
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.
