Another Tata, Yes This Time Automatic: The Tigor XZA

[Lawyeronwheelz]

Hi Guys, I think I have been scammed a bit. The ex show room price quoted in the commitment form was 5.98 lakhs. What they have done in the sales invoice is depreciate the car by 5% and showed 5.68 lakhs. Consequently the insurance is also on the IDV of 5.68 lakhs coming to some 14k(as opposed to 25k). Was this done solely to pay a lesser premium? As far as the insurance is concerned I believe depreciation of 5% on delivery is the norm, what is worrying me is the invoice value? Is that a concern, I know I should have been more vigilant while taking delivery.

Noida ex showroom price is 5,98,835/- inclusive of all GST. But if they provided discount of 30000 then Invoice price should show as 5,68,835/- , else you can claim your money back. Write a mail to Tata Motors immediately asking for refund , you must have proof of payment Cheque, NEFT, Loan etc.

IMO, actual showroom price will be shown in Invoice and then deduct the discounts/offers. Some of the discounts are directly given by the dealers and Tata may have some arrangments to adjust it at the end. Showing less amount in Invoice may put them into trouble.!!

Observed a phenomenon with AC switch of my Tigor over last two months.
If the re-circulation mode is on and if the blower is turned on, the AC becomes on automatically. But this does not happen always. It only happens after overnight the car is idle.
Note - I always switch off AC button when i turn off the engine, the re-circulation switch is always on.
Is this normal behavior for Tigor?

@anshuman, Does your car have automatic climate control? Re-circulation goes ON as a preventive mechanism so that rats/rodents are blocked from entering inside cabin.

No its manual AC same as your Tiago. XZA does not come with ACC.
I keep Re-circulation goes ON myself only but switch off AC button when I shut down the engine for the day.
Not sure if anyone else is experiencing which I stated above. Maybe you can experiment and check.

Oh I think I got your point now. Yes, it behaves the same way in my car too. After couple of hours of idle time, it kinda resets and turns ON AC when blower is turned ON.

 

[Nairrk]

Is that, You both were saying that without switching on the A/c button, but just put the blowers on and then A/c starts automatically and remain on..?

Thanks for the confirmation. I think its not couple of hours but 5-6 hours as it happens only after overnight car's engine turned off.

Yes , exactly. Hyundai cars have this feature.

Yes, I've observed that too. My AC usage is not frequent. I've most of the times, re-circulation mode and blower on. And the AC gets on automatically, when I start the car at morning.

Is it works only ''recirculation mode'' and not 'fresh Air' mode?

I did not check that, by default I keep re-circulation mode ON always in all of my cars.
Maybe someone can check and confirm.

This AC behavior is consistent irrespective of air circulation mode. Note that even if you lock the car in fresh air mode, it automatically goes into recirculation mode after some time.

This is feature is new in Tata cars, my Manza did not have this feature. Not sure if Nexon also have same, maybe Nexon owners can confirm.

Same with my XTA. I switch off ac and next morning, when i crank up and turn the blower to 1, the AC kicks on by its own.
