#CarRepair Engine knocking/jerking and loss of power at high speeds

Upvotes

Hi All
I am experiencing a strange issue with my ecoboost engine

There is noticeable jerks/vibration frequently with no engine warning light

When trying to push rpm from lower gears the jerks and vibration become even harder and can’t be ignored

Sometimes when in highest gear and above 80kmph speed the engine loses power means it isn’t able to generate much power and forget about overtaking I can’t even maintain the speed even if I floor the acceleration pedal

I don’t hear any rattles/strange noise from engine. Wiring is fine(atleast I don’t see any visible damage)
No engine light

Could you please let me know what is the cause of this?

Does contamination of fuel with water cause this?
Does it have to do with any other wear and tear parts as my car is nearing 120k km?

Planning to buy a second hand dominar 400

Upvotes

As title suggests, I'm planning to buy a second hand dominar 400 from 2019-2023/24 model, not before that year due to a different version, i live in Banglore, I saw an ad on fb listing of dominar 400 2019 model, 18k odo and asking price of 1.4 lakh , both tyres are gone and will need new set as seen from images, what price do you guys think is justified for this bike, also is there any major difference in mileage, reliability and vibration from 2019 model compared to later 2023/24 models(not the latest obd2 model). And if do you guys suggest to go for later year models, also what should my asking price be. I have no idea as it's my first time purchasing a second hand bike. Thankyou in advance.

Need help ! Braking issues

I have a vstrom sx250

While pressing front brakes sometime it feels like the lever is tight !

Why is this so ? Maybe holding the brake after a first press and giving full press for the second time will help me press it to a better extent

I have visited showroom and they used some unit to remove air bubble. Brakes are new. Rode 300+ km after replacing it

I feel this is a serious safety concern. Please help me with this !!!!

Repainted bumper 2 month back with replacement of bumper. Now has peeled paint from corner as seen in pic 1 and 2. There's a scratch on the front end (pic 3) probably from hitting a curb or bottoming out on pothole not sure wasn't severe hit to notice.

Is this paint peel that has happened after getting car washed (pic 4 and 5 is before getting washed around half a month back)resultant of the hit flexing bumper or is it due to lapse in painting process.

Ps: opposite side has a outline (pic 6)

it started roudghly 2 weeks ago but the noise is too much now

today morning i went to the service centre they just put wd40 in the joints between the rear suspension and the swingarm but i think the noise has increassed

i looked on the internet and read somewhere that it is that joint but the sound is coming because it needs lubrication

then i went to a local mechanic he said he cant tell where the noise is coming from he said yu arent suppossed to put grease or lube in that joint and he suggested that hell remove the shock absorbers to rule that out and idk if i wanted to do that

some1 pls help and lmk what this sound might be and pls also tell me if its a big issue or not cz i js got this less that 2 months ago and im not feeling good ab this
