Sugesst me also some wax polisher or pen.are they available in car accecories market
Wax polish is for different purpose. but it has tendency to make scratches light that too temporarily.
you need to use every 20-30 days to make that scratch light (but it wont be completely hidded in your case it may cover 60-70%)
I use formula 1 wax polish.
choose Turtle wax for VFM (500rs)
excellent one is Collinite 845 @1800rs.

There are some rubbing components for this purpose ( i dont have expereince) better check for that

its obvious none will your full purpose the best one is paint it from some professional and its costly

If you close all the doors and forget to lock...The car autolocks after a while provided the key is with you...Other grand owners please confirm...another thing is that if engine is on and you leave the key inside and exit the vehicle and close all doors then a buzzer reminds you
The Car won't get lock all by itself even if I have the key with me [frustration]after 1/2 hour.

Another DOUBT as I'm new to driving- If I rotate the steering complete on either sides the brakes are not working properly, is this a matter to worry? On Saturday with Bumper to Bumper traffic I got nervous due to this.
Please do suggest.

Hi Badri,

This is something odd and you should get in touch with service centre.

My Magna gets auto-locked in couple of minutes if i come out of car with keys and forget to lock. Secondly, rotation of steering from full lock to full lock position dosen't affect brakes, hope you are pressing it rightly and not feathuring it.

My Hyundai Grand i10 Asta (O) Petrol Ownership Review

Hi Partha,

Completed 10k kilometers and the second service. engine oil changed, wheel balancing and wheel alignment done.bill came to 2200. Issues faced 1) cluster software upgrade requested 2) gear assembly making loud noise while engaging ocassionally 3) screeching sound while braking at low speeds...issue 2 appears to have been solved. issue 1 and 2 only time will tell. post service I find that the clutch has been adjusted and is engaging quite high up so I will get that adjusted.

Re: My Hyundai Grand i10 Asta (O) Petrol Ownership Review

Hello All,
Had an unfortunate incident with my Grand. A big tree fell on it, damaging the roof, boot lid, rear windshield, tail lamp cluster and dents and scratches all around. The car has been driven off to Hyundai workshop, and should be covered under insurance. Thank god i had taken 0 Dep insurance. But the estimated time for repair is 1.5 months. Hyundai does not have spare parts for the car.

Arijit,

Very sad to hear this news and afraid after looking at pics, even my Grand is also parked under a tree. From last two days atmosphere in Pune is windy with occasional rain. Which part of city do you stay and which kothari hyundai have you given your car for service ?

That is a Gulmohar tree and its not as strong as other Indian trees like Banyan, Peepal, Tamrind etc., always its better to take care near Gulmohar. In rainy and windy times its better to avoid this tree.

I was surprised at the fact that Kothari Hyundai saying "Spares Not Available" though they are famous for "Sales, Service and Spares under one roof". Anyways, keep us updated on your Grand and Insurance claims. Hope you receive your ride soon and once again start munching happy miles.

Re: My Hyundai Grand i10 Asta (O) Petrol Ownership Review

Thanks GrandRk.
Kothari says that this is the first Grand with such a damage. Will update all soon...

@badri.j you are correct it was a Gulmohor tree, but we had hoped it to be strong. It was strong enough to damage the car.
Had i parked the car two feet back it would havve been a really compact car by now.

Re: My Hyundai Grand i10 Asta (O) Petrol Ownership Review

parth please see and tell me .shall i go for touching.painting or should buy a pen.
Scratch removing pen is useless don't buy it. I had a similar incident with my car and i have removed the particles which were struck in the paint by using a scratch vanish. All it does is removes the black lines on your car. The scratch will no disappear from that location but it will be less visible.

I was very sad as it happened to me on my 2nd month after i brought the car. But good thing was it removed the nervousness i had my mind about driving in the traffic and caring too much about the new car.

You can get these scratches fixed on the 2nd service of your car, I'm sure you will get use the grand i10 and there will be less mistakes.
