Finally my Bridgestone tyre has been repaired and back again in working condition.
Total damages 800 Rs, with nitrogen fill.
So i got a go ahead signal from Tyre professional.

even if you drain up some half a litre tend to remain.

take case of indigo where it need some 5.5 , but only 5 litre is avail through out. so they use them.

Also getting six one lit is costly than getting a 7 lit can.

Same is used for sumo/innova etc.

If the dip stick shows the correct level do not worry

Hmmm strange , never happened in both my cars till now. Is it happening recently or right from the beginning? Maybe you can point this while servicing your car next time.

This never happened in any of my car.
I called my dealer & he said its normal, however he has called me for a checkup.
But all these days that black color was not spreading on alloys.
Ont this trip it was raining heavily, & i think that might be the case.
On dry weather conditions this didn't happen.

Left my car today to ASS, It will take 2 days .
Problems: 1:The roof lamp in the front not working.
2:Siren had stopped working as water had entered during my recent trip.
3:3 rd gear vibration is going to be fixed, with one part arriving tomorrow.
And the Roof carrier had vibrations Trrrrrrr!!! when in idling.
4:Drop of water dripping jut above the clutch, Think its from the AC, This problem occurs when AC used all the way.

Guys after the recent travel my hawk has small black dots of tar all over the body.
Any DIY suggestions for removing those substances, I enquired it with dealer they said me to go for maxicare paint protection costing 3900 INR , Underbody coating Hard wax -4100 INR.
My question is if i go for these coatings now won't it flush with rains.
Are these coatings really worth.
And i could see some rusting of door pannels.[frustration]

to remove tar stains, apply a little diesel on a cloth & rub it over the stain. dont use too much diesel & apply only on the affected area.

if you are going for these coatings, ensure you car is as dry.
