if your tank gets empty it could cause damage to mpfi engines and clutch seems a bit tighter after 1007kms.

sadly hit the pothole today there is minor scratch on the inside of front bonut i hope nothing is damaged
Hi,
the petrol pump I get mine from is quite good. Lots of people use the same one. And I usually keep my tank full till auto-cutoff.
I haven't tried that brake application at idle thing, mostly because with the car sitting in the sun, it doesn't seem to stall. Will do it this evening and let you know
Oh, and filter cleaning doesn't seem to be the issue- brand new K&N filter cartridge installed.
Blocked injectors on a 4 month old car??
I always felt from the very first day that my car has indifferent brakes, especially at low speed. But when I changed from rims to alloys, the fitted did clean my calipers. They suspected an oil leak there but there is no subsequent evidence. Also, after then, my braking at low speed has improved a bit
Tushar, how did you dent the bonnet after hitting a pothole? If you damaged the bumper, welcome to the world of scratched bumpers. I pushed my car into a parked bike infront within the first few days and got a minor scratch. Now they are numerous. Side-effect of driving a car in city![[;)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Wink.gif "Wink [;)]")

Sad to hear Mr.Tushar.
Even my ride was scratched with key or some sharp object,when i parked in a park within city premises.
As in case of mine there is no dent,i plan to do brush touch during the service.
I hate such miscreants.

when going to agra i got 24.9 average its funny and when coming back got 20.6
Depends on how you drive. Going from the city to the suburbs i got 21kmpl (petrol) . Didnt feather it or anything, did drive as i do normally, with a lot of lifting & coasting to signals or patches of denser traffic

suppose the meter is showing 24average but if after that average drops will it go down from 24 to less or i have to reset it everytime
Tushar,
You cant use that meter to gauge average. That's instantaneous FE whereas you want overall FE. For that you must use tank to tank method- fill up to cutoff, run 100 km or so, then again fill up to cutoff. Divide the preceding distance travelled by the amount of fuel you put in 2nd time. Thats your actual FE

there are two different meters which shows instantaneous and other shows overall and can not i use mf cloth for dry dusting?
Those two meters (A & B) just show disyance covered. Cant use them for FE
Dont wipe the dust off with any cloth. Dust contains minute abrasives that will scrape the paint. Use a static brush (like is available at signals) to pick off the dust. MF cloth is to be used to wipe interiors dry or exteriors after a wash
And do use punctuations & ask unrelated questions in separate lines!

i am not talking about trip meters i am talking about the other which shows instantaneous and average.2.can i use wet microfiber cloth to clean off dust
Any cloth rubbed on dust can cause swirl marks,but all these marks can be removed by periodic polishing,either teflon or wax.
Regarding brush touch,my ASS told its free.![[:)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Smile.gif "Smile [:)]")
