Yes fuel economy is poor, spare parts availability is not very good, if you want to sell car after four to five years then its OK, but for a woman driver AT is best.

Isint the AT in Dzire a AMT? If so, there should be no issues because the AMT is basically an electrically actuated manual box

Dear friends

MSIL upgraded the cabin filter in new swift from 2014 and in dzire from 2015, but service centres are using old cabin filter. New cabin filter is bigger in size and prescribed cfm delivery. Parts no are below.

1. Old cabin filter 95861M74L00 - Rs.350
2. New cabin filter 95850M79M00 (Title: Cabin filter for Ciaz and new Swift) - Rs.395

I just replaced with new upgraded one, air filtering is excellent.

Dear Suryaputhra,

while driving normal traffic i put 3rd gear and maintain 40 to 50km speed. is it correct or wrong.


thanks with
ARPrasad
It is very good practice, keep driving in the same way, engine will not be lugging so you get more life from piston rings and overall engine.

I do not belive in these 20k, 30k services, but dealer threatens you void of extended warranty just do below mentioned

1. Change engine oil(0W20) shell fully synthetic costs Rs.1500
2. Air filter change(usually they change at 40K but that is too long)
3. No wheel balancing and alignment, if they have done this at 10K then let them do it again.
4. No Brakes pads and shoes cleaning
5. No AC disinfection.
6. Do coolant replacement with strictly MGO coolant only.

Following the above mentioned by Suryaputhra will also lower the service cost considerably.

Why no brake pads and shoes cleaning ?
Hi Visnu sorry for the late reply.

They use sand paper to clean brake pads and shoes it creates surface irregularities due that when you brake at high speeds car vibrates a lot, over the time disk and drum surfaces also become uneven and mitigate this issue further. Brakes should be cleaned with compressed air or with special brake cleaning spray. present generation brake shoes will not generate brake dust so not to worry regarding skidding of the brakes due to dust. Manufacturers designed the drums in such a way that any brake dust formed will be blown out of the drum. Rear brake cylinders are now a days designed to go up to 1 lak km.

That feature is available in Swift Dzire Zxi and Zdi models. It shows outside temperature. Not available in Vxi and Lxi variants.
