Its getting better day by day.

Noticed an excellent mileage of 20 km per litre in City driving with full time A/C on.

11.59 litres of diesel consumed for 233 km in 12 days

Within in the city for daily office commutation, shopping etc.

Frankly, I am surprised at the mileage you are getting in the city. That is about the same I get on highways.

Got this city mileage for the first time when checked a few days ago. I would consider this as real city FE only if it is observed consistantly for next 3 - 4 fillings.

Want to check highway mileage during the long trip planned this month end.

AC cooling in my car is sufficient with selector knob in postion 1.
When the car is parked under direct sun light, initially position 2 is selected.

If we switch on the AC after parking a long time under hot sun in summer, we should allow at least 5 to 6 minutes for cooling. Meantime need to open the windows for some time so as to blow the hot air out.

If you still feel that ac is not cooling enough, then should consult with service center. {There could be several reasons like low refrigerent level, clogging in the condenser - Clogging can happen due to several reasons like dirt, dust, debris from road etc - or some issues with valves or filter.}

Preparing for a long trip - 6000 Km

Fixed an appointment with Rathod Motors for a paid service next monday. Just to check everything before a long trip.

Any suggestions please?

Re: After One Year - Manza Ownership Experience

Just ask them to grease up the jack. It is quite tough to crank it up if it is not clean and greased up. And make sure all the tools are in the car when you get it back from the service.

The rest, the service will take care of.

Have a nice trip.

Enjoy the trip!!!!!!! As HR said check the jack. Also try to lift the car and see you can remove wheel cap and loose wheel nuts. Would be easier if practised. In case any flat tire happens. Do you have driver or you are self driving.

Our driver will take over for the last 1500 km. Booked a ticket for him to reach us for the return journey.
