My steering wheel on 2006 Suzuki Grand vitara feel down out of position, known it sounds really loud and what can I do?

If your steering wheel has dropped out of position and is making loud noises, it's likely a serious mechanical issue. Immediately stop driving the vehicle and have it towed to a trusted mechanic or Suzuki dealership for inspection and repair. Continuing to drive in this condition could pose a significant safety risk to you and other road users.

1980 Suzuki Santana MJ 1000. Need help fixing mechanical Fuel pump. It does not work. The tank, lines, filter, cleaned. Need to see camshaft to see what could be wrong there.

Hello! It sounds like you're dealing with a tricky situation with your 1980 Suzuki Santana MJ 1000's mechanical fuel pump. It's great that you've cleaned out the tank, lines, and filter to rule out any clogs. To get a closer look at the camshaft and see what might be causing the issue with the fuel pump, you may need to remove some components of the engine or access panel covers to get a clear view. Once you can see the camshaft, check for any signs of wear, damage, or misalignment that could be affecting the pumps operation. If you're unsure about how to proceed with accessing the camshaft or diagnosing the issue, it may be best to consult a mechanic or a Suzuki specialist for further assistance. They can provide you with expert guidance on how to fix the problem with your fuel pump. Good luck with the repairs.

Where can I find the thermostat in a 2003 suzuki aerio

This can depend on which engine size is fitted. The simplest method I use is the large radiator hoses. Start at the radiator and find the largest black hose coming out of the top of the radiator. Follow it back to the engine block and see what shape the connecter tube is on the actual engine. The thermostat housing will have a dome shape to it and the pipe will mount to it sideways. If the top pipe connector doesn't look like that go back to the radiator and follow the other big pipe back to the engine and look for it there. The link below is for the 2.3 engine but it will give you an idea of what your looking for. https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/c/dorman-oe-solutions/cooling---heating-4717/thermostats-4597/thermostat-housing-water-outlet-275/605bb129430b/dorman-oe-solutions-thermostat-housing/doe0/9022013/v/a/18870/automotive-car-2006-suzuki-aerio?pos=0

1998 Suzuki VL1500 front decompression shaft binds when the retaining bolt is installed.

If the front decompression shaft on a 1998 Suzuki VL1500 binds when the retaining bolt is installed, it suggests there may be an issue with either the alignment, the components themselves (such as the decompression shaft or associated parts), or potentially the bolt or its torque specification. Here are some steps to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:
  1. Inspect the Bolt and Threads: Ensure that the retaining bolt and its threads are clean and undamaged. Sometimes, dirt, corrosion, or damaged threads can cause binding. If the bolt or threads are damaged, replace them.
  2. Check for Correct Parts: Verify that all parts associated with the decompression mechanism are correct for the model and not damaged or worn. An incorrect part could cause misalignment and binding.
  3. Lubricate: Before installation, lightly lubricate the shaft and any moving parts to ensure smooth operation. Use a lubricant suitable for internal engine components.
  4. Alignment: Carefully check the alignment of the decompression shaft and any related components. Misalignment can cause binding when the bolt is tightened. Ensure that all parts fit together as intended without forcing them.
  5. Torque Specification: It's crucial to tighten the retaining bolt to the correct torque specification. Over-tightening can cause binding or even damage to the components. Consult the motorcycle's service manual for the proper torque specification.
  6. Check for Foreign Objects or Damage: Ensure there are no foreign objects or debris in the area where the decompression shaft sits. Even small debris can cause binding. Also, inspect for any damage or wear that might impede the movement of the shaft or its related components.
  7. Consult the Service Manual: The motorcycle's service manual can be an invaluable resource for troubleshooting specific issues. It can provide detailed instructions on the assembly and installation of the decompression mechanism, highlight specific areas that require attention, and offer troubleshooting tips specific to the model.
If after trying these steps the issue persists, it may be necessary to consult with a professional mechanic or a Suzuki dealership. Sometimes, issues like these can indicate more complex problems that require specialized knowledge and tools to diagnose and repair properly.

How to get past theft car lock on Suzuki Swift 2008 ?

If you don't have the correct key for the vehicle you will probably need to get a good auto electrician to use an OBD2 diagnostic system to scan for codes and reset any theft settings. Anti theft systems are there for a reason and there is usually no 'Short cut' way to bypass it.

2001 Suzuki Wagon R Automatic. I've had 2 new alternators fitted & 2 new batteries fitted & it will not send charge to the battery.

Question edited for clarity, year make model in correct order and some CAPS. Something is not right. Charging voltage should be 13.2 to 13.8 volts. Alternators are burning out because the voltage is not being dissipated to the battery and is causing the alternators to burn up. You have bad connections and high resistance somewhere. You need a good Auto Electrician, someone that only deals in electrics. https://www.google.com/search?q=auto+electrician+near+me You can't fix this by guesswork ..
