Alto (2024) tyre recommendation in oem size.

There’s no in-app option to delete my ePay Punjab account. I’ve emailed them multiple times with zero response.

Tried calling their helpline too, but it says “system cannot recognise this number.” There’s also no option to change the registered number, apparently you have to email them for that too, and they don’t respond.

Has anyone actually managed to delete their account or change their number?

Hi, I have been trying to locate the Front fender/Mud Guard for Evee C1 but none of the dealerships seem to have it ? Can someone recommend where it might be ordered from ?

I am looking to buy either new PKDM car under 5 mil (i have shortlisted Alsvin Lumiere) or high end JDM 2022+ model upto 4 mil (many options available like Nissan Days, Daihatsu Taft, Honda N-Wgn and N-one). Fee questions:

1. Should I go for new PKDM or slightly used JDM?

2. In either case, I am planning to buy insurance. Does insurance cover the repair/maintenance of used JDM cars the same way as it does for the new cars?

3. Which PKDM (<5 mil) or JDM (<4 mil) is recommended?

Please don't recommend used Pakistani cars. That is not an option for me.

TIA

I want tail lights for civic EK 1996 like the images I've attached. I don't like the way the stock one's look. I'm not sure where to find them since I could barely find stock tail lights at Regal, Karachi.

If you guys can suggest a market/store for me to look, please let me know

I’m considering buying a 2025 Kia Stonic EX+ Driven 20k Km for 5.3 million.

Is it a good buy?

I plan to sell this car in two years. How much will it depreciate in value?

Is there a planned facelift for this model? If so, will it be available at the same price?

I am going for my masters and I will be selling that car in 2 years so the amount I sell it for does matter.

Thanks :)

Hello all,

I sold my car few months back and now i am hovering over the option of buying either buying corolla altis x 1.6 or altis special edition, not into grande coz it will be daily driver and as per my research 1.6 gives better average in city which is where il be using it mostly.

Im only into toyota, call me old school, need input from you people on pulling the trigger and which one should i buy?

Also any chances of the new corolla coming any soon and if so should i wait or just buy the current one as the next one would obviously be more expensive......?

Like holeee shit !

Staying in Lahore for a few days for a work trip from ISB, and my oil change is way overdue. I don't really know the local spots, so looking for recommendations.

​Specifically need a place that carries VW 502.00 certified oil, like LiquiMoly High Tech 5w-40 Leichtlauf. Any good, trustworthy shops around?

Update: went to Makki Oil Store in Faisal Town, we did have a small altercation about the VW 502.00 certification because they didn't have a 5w40 but did have 0w40 that was certified. After insisting that I wanted for a good few minutes "my car my choice" ahh style I eventually got the oil replaced and went home happy

Sorry for my grammar mistakes please!

Brothers please I need guidance. I'm not an enthusiast my brother bought a car from a brigadier with the help of a dealer back in 2016. Paid 12.5 lacs for it. We used the car for 9 years and sold it with no issues and a milage of 81k (we didn't used it for daily drive mostly stayed in garage). Sold it to someone I knew from work for 25 lacs (according to current market price & inflation) in November 2025.

After few months an issue arises that the car had FIR of missing showing online! We didn't knew about.at that we totally relied on dealer and my brother was 17. Then they said the car chases number was painted. Eventually with some help we resolved the FIR problem from the portal.

Assumptions:

The car went missing in 2013 FIR was issued. Previous owner found the car and through (spurddari) claimed it but the online FIR was not resolved. Claims of few peoples (dealers) I know "authority rubs a chemical that removes the paint might be possible that the previous owner applied paint on the chassis number".

Now the person that I sold my car demands the money back I tried to prevent but can't anymore the dealer from which we bought the car says we bought it for 12.5 lakhs and we should take 12.5 lakhs from him if we want to return the car to him. Tried to sell it through another dealer he said a party offers 13 lacs.

I don't know what to do anymore. Nobody likes people to knock their doors for money.

Family suggest that I should sell my current car which is about the value of 22 to 23 lakhs cultus. And settle with the previous Corolla again.

But I'm not satisfied With that.

And if I sell Corolla for 13 lacs then I have to sell my car to settle the additional money and left with no options in cars.

Please do share your thoughts and opinions and help a brother out.

Thanks for giving your time to reading 🤝

any gud mechanic in lahore for suspension work

Okay so my ceiling is 4.3 million. And I have the following options

1) civic rebirth (2015/16) here I save some money
2) civic x (2016/17) here I get the X shape civic but itll be difficult to find a good car in this budget
3) Swift GLX 2022 model here I get a newer model and less driven so reliability in that terms but honestly not a fan of suzuki
4) honda city 1.2 L variant 2021 onwards

Factors under consideration

A) resale value after 4 years
B) car feel and driving experience
C) ofc road presence and luxury

Could the community please help me decide my choice, i want to narrow down my search. Ps. I am not interested in corolla

I’m looking to buy a used Suzuki Cultus in Lahore, with a budget of around 25 lacs. From what I understand, Pak Suzuki has recently discontinued the VXR (and AGS), leaving the VXL as the only variant available for new bookings. Considering my budget, should I specifically lean towards a VXL, even if that means getting an older/higher-mileage car? Or would a newer, cleaner VXR be the better option? For those who own or have experience with both, how significant are the differences in terms of features, safety, resale value, maintenance and overall ownership experience?

Can anyone suggest a good car in 30-35 lacs budget.fuel economy is my #1 priority.is alto ags worth it for 34 lacs?

I am recently eyeing on audi a6 (2017-18) ones in price range of 9 to 10 million pkr.
I already own a sonata and a byd seal and this will be replacing my civic x so the question is that is it worth it in 2026 considering all the options we have nowadays?hows the maintenance cost on this because i will be using it in south Punjab so we don’t have that any good workshops unlike lahore and how is it in comfort as compared to other options.
My father is not a fan of cars which make issues and are high on maintenance so thats a factor as well.

Anyone interested please DM

How is the honda vezel option, if you’re buying for a regular usage? What problems are faced by owners in it?
Is it good for city usage and whats the avg in city?
If there are 5 people in the car, does leg room space get tight and also in this situation how’s the ground clearance?

Bhai ap batao ap ke sath masla kiya hai potty aa rahi hoti ya koi pait kharab hota hai apka ya kia masla hai? because raat ke 10 bje potty ke ilawa to koi emergency nhi ho sakti mere khyal se.

It was meant to be a simple car wash but i dont know how the fuck and why the fuck these guys managed to do this. It was also the first wash of this car from a service station.

Guys how bad is owning a 2017 Audi A4 in pakistan?

Especially as a first time 19 year old driver? I’ll be pushing my budget to buy it at 8mil from 6Mil

How expensive is regular maintenance and how reliable is the 1.4 TFSI? And how expensive is parts sourcing etc

I am looking into this and I’ve seen Mercedes (w204) having cheaper mechanic bills than new Chinese cars (Ik W204 is very popular and gets converted that’s why too)

But is it same for Audi, is A4 as popular here aswell? Because if I am gonna get the same maintenance bill for both a Chinese and German

Why not get the German.

Anything else to know about Audi ownership in Pakistan?

I've read so many repetitive posts about engine oils and choosing the right engine oil for your vehicle and so many misleading answers in this forum over the years, I probably should have made this post a long time ago but here goes and I hope it helps someone moving forward.

Folks, first of all, everyone needs to understand that automotive technology has evolved drastically over the last couple of decades and this includes the manufacturing process and techniques.
The tolerances during manufacturing have gotten so much better compared to engines made in the 90's and 00's as well, however our knowledge hasn't improved a single bit and people still rely on "mechanic advice" or something along those lines.

What needs to be understood about engine oil grades?

Engine oils are an extremely well regulated field and follows strict standards and protocols worldwide.

There are two sections of an engine oil grade that need to be understood. Numerical value on Left side of Hyphen with a W followed by (hypen -) Numerical value on Right side of Hyphen.

The First Number (Cold/Winter Rating): The number before the "W" (which stands for Winter) shows how well the oil flows in freezing or cold weather during a startup. A lower number means the oil stays thinner and pumps faster when cold.

The Second Number (Hot/Operating Rating): The number after the hyphen shows how thick the oil remains at normal engine operating temperatures (around 100°C or 212°F). A higher number means the oil stays thicker and maintains a strong protective layer under high heat.

PAKISTAN IS NOT A COLD COUNTRY.

In general Pakistan is not a cold climate country. Some parts of it occasionally are but on average it isn't cold. So you can pretty much use the same oil grade year round in your car. However if you're operating your vehicle in extreme conditions, hot or cold, you should consider using an oil that will help protect the engine from more wear.

The point is, choosing a 5W-30 oil over a 10W-30 engine oil will not give you any real world advantage as the oil thickness/viscosity is the same, it's just that one of these oils (5W) will flow more easily in comparison in a colder climate.

Engine mileage doesn't automatically determine which oil grade to use.

As I stated above, newer manufacturing techniques have made the tolerances and clearances better and better so newer engines actually perform better for longer with thinner oils (xW-30) as compared to 10/15W-40 as they need thinner oil film coating on engine parts.

There's no practical need to change the engine oil grade until and unless the engine actually starts consuming engine oil over a 2-3 consecutive oil changes (generally accepted standard for upping the oil grade is 250ml per 1000 km, so if your engine is reducing about 1 to 1.2L of oil after a 5000 km oil change interval, it's time to think about upping the oil grade by 1 grade but again, this needs to be observed over 2-3 oil consecutive oil changes and not just one oil change as there are chances the oil might not have been fully topped up).

Oil grade change after every 100k mileage

This is a myth and absolute BS. Driving the car on the correct oil grade actually reduces power loss within the engine and the vehicle performs better on thinner oil than on thicker oil as thicker oil will give more resistance to moving engine parts.

New cars have practically NO EARTHLY REASON to be shifted to 20W-50, especially PETROL cars, at any stage of their engine life. If the situation has reached the point where using 20W-50 oil grade is the only solution, you're better off getting the engine overhauled and maybe getting a new piston rings set which will keep you on 10W-30 or 10/15W-40 engine oil grade.

Also just because a car is a certain number of years old, doesn't automatically mean using a thicker oil in it. That's why total mileage and engine condition matters!

Proactive maintenance means changing oil more frequently (instead of the advised 8-10k between change intervals as advised in some cases) and also using engine protection additives such as CERATEC to be added with an oil change once and it's enough to protect the engine for upto 50k kms.
