25000 Km

I have owned this car for over a year now. It drives like the first day.

The fuel economy has gone up from 14km/l diesel inside the city to 17 km/l.

The engine has become smooth and the sound is hum than rattle of the 3-cylinder engine.

Maintenance cost for year one is nil.

First service total bill has been Rs.4100/-

So far no complaints with Tafe Access in Bangalore.

The mirror unit on the right side needed replacing. But parts were not availiable.

 

First Paid Service at 25000 Km 3 years after purchase

 

Total cost of service was Rs. 12,000

- Oil change (cost of oil gone up costs about Rs. 6000)

- Labour about Rs. 2000

- Change of Brake Pads (after every 20000 to 25000km)

- Had to change brake discs as well (due to rusting- unknown cause) additional cost was incurred.

Made sense to change the brake discs as the brake pads and discs both new would match and increase the life of the brake pads.

Miscellaneous parts like wiper blade, oil filter and aircon filter (all definitely looked like they needed a change)
