Are regular oil top-ups causing Pakistani owners to overlook deeper engine health problems in Changan Kalam?

Topping up instead of fixing the root cause may lead to long-term engine damage. Are workshops misguiding owners?

Yes. Regular top-ups can hide:

Piston ring wear

Valve seal leaks

Gasket failure

Many workshops in Pakistan recommend topping up without checking for burning o r leakage, which delays actual repair and damages engine health long-term.

This is common, especially where mechanical skills are limited o r rushed.
