No idea what the A/C would have to do with having an engine repair done.
Sounds like they broke your A/C and don't want to take the blame for it. If it were me, I would make sure the A/C works.

dont use AC? im cracking up over here!!!

well AC will put strain on engine and maybe the new rings and pistons are wrong size and have to take 100k km before breaking in lol god i hope not... im guessing its pretty hot there :/


--------------------

Oh no, I'm so sorry... the correct answer is The Moops.

The packaging clearly stated '100'. I'm short ONE luft balloon.

I'm gonna take a guess that AC doesn't stand for air conditioning in this context...

Welcome. That is a very nice looking car for a 2006.

Can you confirm for us that when you say "AC", you mean air conditioning? If it is I'm thinking the mechanic just wants to decrease load on the engines to allow a time for the new pistons and rings to ware in.

On the engine oil, not sure what you have available in India and what is equivalent for diesels. But most major branded oil should be fine as long as you change it regularly.
