Congrats akashgarg!
800 Km in 6 days - you drive a lot. 160 Kmph may not be a good idea till the engine is run in. Even after that I don't think those speeds are safe in Indian road.
I did the first free servicing for my ZDI on Sunday. It was really FREE.
I will be doing my first highway run this weekend and there is a ghat section too. Looking forward to it.

Actually that drive stats are intial excitment, usually i drive arnd 50km a day
~160 kmph was just for the try, i usually drive arnd 70-80kmph...
By really free , you mean ZERO right , because the next thread says he paid ~1600 rs for the first service , i am confused.

 

[vishy123]

Yes, i did not pay anything for first service.
shivats - For what did they charge you rs 1651 ?

 

[shivats]

Supposed to be for Polishing and vacuuming (I had got temporary seat covers of Turkey towelling made for the summer and there was dust)

 

[Knightrider]

Hurray!
Nice list Knightrider!
So,When is your name going to be in the list?

No idea. I am desperately waiting. The dealer says at least 1 more month.
Till then I will keep enjoying the experiences & pics shared by you guys.

Good Morning everyone!! Today I saw ERTIGA VDI SERENE Blue in my society while coming to office.I looks gorgeous in parking lot rather to be at showroon.

So mine would not be the 1st one in my society.

GM Everyone...I heard that Maruti have stopped the delivery of Ertiga due to some Rear AC Condenser problem.Does anyone have more idea on this..

@ Sunny,
I spoke to a friend of mine who distributes world tech, he quoted Rs 4200/- other quoted Rs 4500 to 5800 for the same model for camera and screen alone, however, anothe friend who is a dealer for one of the large brand cars in Hyderabad advised me to go for the MGA or Redsol, MGA quoted Rs 10K and may give a discount and Redsol quoted Rs 15K with final as Rs 14K. I have decided for MGA. Plan to have up module fitted this would cost Rs 1500 and sil guards. This is current planning on accessories. Let us see what other required accessories our forum recommends.

Yes,MGA's reverse camera with 4 rear parking sensors and screen fitted rear view mirror costs 10K and Its a good deal, no matter you may find same thing at 1-2K less price of other brands outside. But I would recommend to do this work from M.S.S. as this work requires sort of professional wiring work and might void the warranty if not done in proper way.
I've added sill guards for 400 and carpet matsfor 1700 from MGA, as the mats they are providing looks superb and are not available in the market, I searched many shops for the same thing.

 

[akashgarg]

Proud and lucky owners,

I got Leatherite seat covers and carpet mats from outside and the total cost was 5500, since the car is still new , i would recommended you all to go for the bare minimum accessories, as the prices will definately fall down.

For now i am thinking of going for the door gaurds as the rear doors and huge , and usually touch the neighbouring vehicles in the parking area.
For now i have shortlisted this for my white beauty :-

1. Car shampoo - 295
100%Original Formula1 Car Carnauba Wash And Wax Car Shampoo 473ML | eBay

2. Tyre + Interiors cleaning - 310

100%Original Formula1 Seat,Dashboard&Tire Polish-315ml | eBay

3. Door Gaurd - 320

4. Illuminated Suzuki Emblem for tailgate - 499rs
LED Decal Logo Light Badge Light Emblem For Suzuki Swift, Sx4, Dzire Etc White | eBay
(saw it on a Cruze yesterday , just want to get it badly now)


let me know there are cheaper options available in chandigarh for the same, also need opinion on 3M paint protection polish and approx cost of the same.
