3 new issues:
1st-Music player: a distorted sound started to produce suddenly when volume is increased,got rectified from ford service centre,cause is due to some loose wiring in front right speaker.
2nd -ACC: First time ac blower produced hot air instead of cold air,this one happened when i took delivery of my car for rectified speaker wiring, immediately called the service manager, he told this one is happening in all new fiesta occasionally and this is some safety feature, and said some technical word DSP, he told me to drive at 80kmph for 2seconds, did so and problem got rectified by itself, weird.
3rd - a brand new swift,just taken delivery from showroom rammed my cars rear, mistake was completely by the driver of swift,he couldn't stop the car in time and he is an beginner.actually i saw the car through my rear view mirror and felt something suspicious because the car was not slowing down, i had some presence of mind to move the car in front to prevent him from crashing, inspite of my efforts he crashed, went to see the result, thinking a bad damage, to my surprise not even a single scratch was there on my rear bumper, but the swift front bumper got misaligned, hats off to ford for superb BUILT QUALITY.

Your advice needed guys:

Noticed that its Headlamp beam is inadequate for High-speed or for Open road stretch usage.
Currently it uses Halogen lamp, 35/35W I guess.

Any solution to rectify this weakness or any Lamp,Bulb upgrade options ?? ]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 01:24:27 +0000 http://archive.autocarindia.com/autocar_forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=9820&PID=148747#148747 Members Two-wheelers : My Fiery Orange 2012 Yamaha FZ-S http://archive.autocarindia.com/autocar_forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=9820&PID=148746#148746 Author: dr_nishu

So POLO it will be , will get hold of the 1.1Lakhs one.



It varies from variant to variant.
You won't get complete 24k discount on its base variant.
Same is for Polo too.

Please note these figures just Indicates the Cash benefits on the purchase of these cars, not the Cash Discount alone.
CD if available, would be of relatively smaller amount than overall cash benefits written in the advertisements.

Jaago grahak jaago.

@Sstar;
Go for any Aftermarket Parking Sensors, but beware of Cutting & Splicing of the stock wiring of the car while its Installation as it'll lead to voiding of the Maruti Suzuki product Warranty.]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 01:05:39 +0000 http://archive.autocarindia.com/autocar_forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=9825&PID=148743#148743 Indian Cars : ACI Scoop: Nissan Evalia MPV http://archive.autocarindia.com/autocar_forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=9850&PID=148742#148742 Author: dr_nishu

Shocking Omission of Rear Wash wipe, Rear defogger & Rear parking Sensors on this top-end like variant of gigantic sized EVALIA, which even features 12-spoke Gorgeous Alloys.
Music System is a Single-DIN conventional type unit in the Interior pic seen above.

Overall, this seems to be a Swift/Ertiga VDi-like specced variant.]]> Thu, 17 May 2012 01:04:17 +0000 http://archive.autocarindia.com/autocar_forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=9850&PID=148742#148742 Indian Cars : Tata Indigo Manza CS - Tata's Silver Bullet Produc http://archive.autocarindia.com/autocar_forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=9845&PID=148741#148741 Author: dr_nishu

No, not at all.
Updating Info here & buying car is a totally different aspect for me.
TATA cars are remote option for us.

Lets see, what's TATA has on offer this time.

On that note, could you please clarify, you may be aware the current body roll itself is too much, what are the after effects once the upsize is done would the body roll increase? On the looks of it, it would better to keep away from upsizing for this car then... your thoughts please?



Indigo CS already uses lower (65) profile to reduce unwanted body roll, Improve grip, floating-type handling & Improve Steering response.
Reducing profile further Sharpen its steering response.
Body roll won't be affected much but with 55 or 60 profile ratio usage, the rims of your car will become more prone to bent(in case of steel wheels) or damaged(in alloys case), even with sudden crashing into road potholes.
So, the best option is to stick to same OEM size or If you still want to upgrade then opt for 1 size up. i.e 185/60 R14.

we really have bad roads, so ride height is a concern.  I had a tough time with my Zen, so sent it over to my dad. Its now in Hyderabad.



Go for Bridgestone then.
CEAT is an another cheap & best option(even better than Bridgestone), but make sure you'll get the Original ones.
Beware of fake duplicate CEAT tyres.
