Well the Rattling sound not there anymore and reason sighted is the AC cable was making sound @higher speeds(50kmph+). So, padding done!!!!

Done with the 1st service now really looking to rev it a bit

What is power steering cut off. i have heard this on some other thread.

It Happens after car hits certain speed limit, like 40km and power steering is cut off

 

[manish09]

you meant to see above 40km/hr power steering will not work and it ill act like a normal steering.

But with out EPS steering is very hard to turn.

i don't think that you would turn hard at 40kmph, and you won't feel it hard at 40kmph.

Any sugestions for Wiper blade replacement?

Hella or Bosch? And Brio has 26" & 14" size, right?

Mine, needs replacement, as the bottom portion wiping isnt effective.

 

[VivekRj.Dieselhead]

Hella is better then bosch without any doubt. Check dynaedge as well.

Hella is better then bosch without any doubt. Check dynaedge as well.

Any idea what size are they? I need to get back home to check.

 

[VivekRj.Dieselhead]

Hella and dynaedge both are available in 26".

Did you find turning stiff or hard after 40 km ever ?? I don't think so .

Any tips on Driving Brio in rains and what should be taken care of the car and driving tips in rains ?

 

[manish09]

I am also interested in driving tips in rainy season since i am a new driver.

Today got stuck at inclined turn .

- Drive at safe speeds, seat belts on!

- Check your wiper blades, tyre threads, brake pads before the downpour

- Add glass cleaner / shampoo in the wiper wash, b'coz chances are high for oil layer to be formed on windshield, hence this will make it clean and clear for a little while

- Get underbody cleaned and apply diesel (service stations do this) / opt for 3M antirust treatment. Get the whole car water / diesel serviced once in a month atleast. And opt to get all windows cleaned with shampoo depending on usage of vehicle, even if cars is being water washed everyday by the watchman

- In case your moving through water logged area, and if the level is high enough for water to enter the exhaust pipe, make sure to move through the stretch at slow speed, with continous acceleration. This would make sure water doesnt enter the exhaust

- If car doesnt have defogger, and windows become foggy, then turn air to fresh intake, ac vent to windscreen and blower on full speed for a couple of mins. This would take care of it

- During low visibility / heavy dowpour, turn on park light + fog lights, along with hazard indicators

Today i followed one of the advice in heavy rain and windshield did not fog up. Otherwise last time i had very difficult time during rain. Thanks for the advice

My Brio's Window washer fluid is over , i asked few friends , some one said plain water is good enough , another said add Colin or shampoo to water , Maruti car owner said that Maruti provides 20 RS sachet which can be mixed with water advised me to use that , i could like to know from Brio owners what are they using currently ?

Do i have to check Radiator for coolant level and if yes what type of coolant should be used , i guess Engine coolant in Brio last 200000 km if i am not mistaken . Advice will be appreciated
