Re: My Pre-owned 2003 Accent CRDi - Pics on Pg.2
Update time!
Car AC unit completely overhauled! New AC compressor, AC cooling coil, new filter inside the condenser pipe, new AC piping, and cooling gas filled
All OE parts, total cost of spares came to Rs.20,000 and labour Rs.3,300/-
Got the car back this morning 9AM. air con is very chilling and did not feel the heat in afternoon Chennai sun!
Started around 9.45 AM in Pondy after filling my tank there and came to Chennai as I had office. A fast drive as what I would call it, since it was late. speeds between 90 to 115 kmph in ECR.
Was just curious to see the mileage of car. Went to petrol bunk and again asked them to fill. Tank filled again and now my baby drank 7.5 lts.
And there I was. very happy 140 kms - 7.5 lts. Mileage achieved, 18.6 kmpl with AC on and with good speeds.
Looks like I have gotten lucky after all. Will take a few more drives and will post the average. better pics coming up soon. Stay tuned guys!
