Hi,
Did any nano owner faced the below issue.
Iam facing a peculiar issue on my nano 2012 the Problem is while driving above 40km on 3rd gear and above 60 on 4th gear i am getting heavy jump on rear wheels, also some kind of air damping sound inside the cabin ,

Gone to Tafe Reach Chennai done the wheel balancing wheel alignment nothing worked, service adviser informed it is normal in nano and we cant expect more in nano car.

Taken to ECR road Concord motors, they did the same and said all are fine just they tighten the wheel bolts, iam not satisfied with the Service adviser answer, hence he taken me with another nano which came for service, that is also having the same issue, and asked me the question DO YOU WANT TEST DRIVE WITH ANOTHER NANO - WE ARE READY BECAUSE IT IS Characteristic of TATA NANO.

I had inquired dealer about alloy designs, bit firstly they look about me with surprise and then told me that they don't have anything for nano :(

Check for the tire, may be it has cut and which causes a bulge in the tire which makes the car to hop .
Why not swap the extra tire and check. [:)]

Varun, it comes with tubeless tyres. So tyre may not have any cut in normal case ( else air problem will occurs)

Hi all Thanks for the support, Today i deceresed the tyre pressure to 26 on all wheels (Actual for rear is 28 but i kept 26), the wheel jump has been reduced almost 50%.

For changing the spare wheel i need advice, do the radius size will differ for rear wheel and spare whell or the only diffrence is width,

Varun- i checked the tyres there is no bulge or cut in the tyre, but the rear wheel tyres are sliding to some angle facing the engine ( like the setup in APE diesel auto.)

your front tyres are 135 while the rear is 155. and the spare wheel is 135. so there is no difference in the radius.

and there will not be any angles in the wheel like ape. do check with TASS. if possible post a pic of the same

May be there is an issue with the suspension or the wheel alignment which causes this issue. Or even if the tire is unevenly worn out it causes the same.

hi dhruv
first of all congratulations for selecting this tiny wonder even after heavy negative mouth publicity
i have recfently purchased a nano lx mojito green on 20 july 2012 from lucknow even though every one from my family to friends to my car mechanic even, rejected my idea to buy this car but i cant understand the reasons which they are giving.
can we reject something because of the fact that , that thing was sold as a cheapest available thing in its category ?
but after reading all the reviews all over the net i finally decided to go for it and as the time and attitude changes , my yonger brother who was with me at the time of delivery and also on the way back to faizabad from lucknow almost 120 kms his attitude towards the car changes completely.
thanks to this forum and all the members who share their experiences with all the readers which actually help others a lot to think seriously about this car

Do write your owner review in forum, it will help other members.
