Maruti Suzuki Swift: Technical Issues & Solutions

[guru.golf]

Please check battery terminals are secure and having good contact, with no loss contacts,

you replace alternator for what reason?

Odo light fluctuating means loose connection beside the instrument console.

Even this may lead to abs light ,
Mostly that light glows if ecu finds any problem in airbag electronics.
Please take to service as soon as possible ,drive safe

Dear stingray,
1. had sent the car to the dealership they cleaned the throttle body and sent it back as they couldnt figure out the problem.
2. Sent the car for re-service when they said alternator is the problem and ordered it. Car was with dealership for 4 days.
3. after 2 days of delivery same fluctuation happened i called the service advisor he advised me to get terminals changed from outside as they didint have the terminal in stock & it cant be ordered.
4. immediately went to my mechanic and got M800 terminals installed (fluctuation stopped) except for airbag light ????

Dear guru, kindly note that, after you start your engine every electronics work in alternator not the battery,

If you experience this fluctuations even after changing alternator, its something other than it.

Note : fluctuations denote light work's fine but connection or current is fluctuating

I think connection from instrument cluster to ecu is loose or some wire is in less contact ,check the connectors of instrument panel and ECU.

If alternator is the fault , ecu Will show engine light warning for sure.

If its airbag light.
Take to service center ,they Will connect obd device and see what specific error its , actually ECU detected something wrong in airbag system, ecu knows what its, but it will just denote it by light indication available, so using obd port they get to know the problem.
It may be sensor issue or something else,
As its related to airbag, take to service guy soon and be safe

When you turn on ac, rpm increases to compensate the load, at higher rpms you get more acceleration and torque

I suspect there is no cabin filter, or windows may be open

advisor installed it on first service and what windows have to do with it

Dust could have entered ac vents , mainly via windshield vents , mostly open window driving lead to dust accumulation in AC vents.

Other than with filter installed ,no way dust can enter ac vents.

Small query- my car when cold stalls in 2nd gear with the clutch disengaged and brakes applied.
It happens like this- in the evenings, I leave office and take the car out of basement parking. I drive up the basement ramp, then switch ON the aircon. Its about 300m or so run pervious to that. Near the building gate, there is a speed breaker where I declutch, then roll with braking till I reach the breaker. Its stalls about then. Not necessarily at that speed breaker only. Sometimes outside the gate where there is a rough patch. Sometimes in the morning also within the first km. Its been happening since the very first days (its 5months old now). I never warm upmy car as the MASS said its not required. Sometimes I switch on aircon after a bit and sometimes immediately after starting the engine while I belt up etc. Idle rpm is also 800-900.

What am I missing?

What am I missing?

isn't it a normal behaviour?. You are in 2nd gear and your speed/rpm is below that required for the gear. You should shift to the lower gear or else it will stall.

 

[ameyam]

Oh man! I am not that naive. It stalls with the clutch in meaning no connection between engine & wheels

Hi
The vaccum produced from your engine is less!
So when you applying brakes ,vaccum is used by brake booster, so in less vaccum car stalls because its not getting needed amount of air to stay working.

Check airfilters are not clogged.
Check brake booster is not bleeding air out

Check this:
Start your car in cold.
Press brakes max in neutral
Does car stall?
Does rpms vary?

Try increasing idling rpm a 100 to 150 range.

went to agra yesterday it has now clocked 1007kms.now i can increase my rpm to 2,500.

Yes you can till 1500 kms. After that 3000 rpm till 2000 kms. Then rev away to glory. Just make sure its a gradual increase.

@ ameyam seems like idling issue which can be for air filter or clogged injectors. How good are the petrol bunks you fill petrol from ? Also do you wait till the tank is empty before refilling ?
