Tata Nexon Ownership Review: Living The Nexon Life

[mayankdixit]

RIM can be repaired. Damaged lip causes loss of air.
Modern Rim Straightener machine can mend it,even if its an alloy.

@mayankdixit & @Nanofreak, Have a problem for both of you to suggest and maybe solve.

My car's front right Tyre looses air pressure frequently without having puncture and even after changing the air valve the problem persists. Have replaced the faulty tyre with the spare one but the puncture wala said "RIM mein he defect hai" . Now how should I go about it? What's the cost of a new rim? or can this be replaced in warranty?

Regards

Akash

Change the tyre wala, go to a guy who has a huge water tub, and insert the entire tyre which should be over inflated.
I did the same for my Nano, and found a hairline puncture.

Today I heard kind of grinding 'krrrrrr krrrr' noise while reversing.

Maybe the reverse gear was not slotted / engaged properly.
Stop the car > press the clutch again fully > reengage reverse again > slowly release. See whats the result.

@Akash bro
If you have warranty you can claim for a new rim and even new tyre .
Faulty rims can also cause air leak .
Faulty rims can be easily identified by Wheel balancing (The weights keep fluctuating and also , during balancing prcedure , the tyre will wobble .

What's the age of the tyre as well as rims .
Stock rims generally lasts - 60-1L km (Depending on worst roads to driven in good roads)

@ Mayankji , Bridgestone getting punctured so often , I haven't heard sir .
Let me check with my dealership(Tyre Centre ) , and will post you in a week .
Michelin Primacy had this issue - Sidewall prone for puncture . Don't know whether it is so with your case also , maybe defective rubber or thread pattern (As in case of eagle F1-Goodyear )

My neighbour bought new Hyundai Venue.
Parked next to my Nexon.
Size is comparable, but engine is not.

To be honest, despite being older, Nexon definitely shows more road presence.. Do you also agree??

The stunning blue color along with unique white ceramic lines. It certainly looks the part.

I totally agree with both of your views. Other than that I was totally stunned when I peered back inside the passenger compartment. The space was even less than my swift, what to talk of Nexon or Ritz. I cant explain,I was actually surprised. Where did all the space go??Looking big and good from the outside,but what a surprise from the inside! No space at all!!
Maybe my eyes were playing tricks with me,or maybe I am naturally biased towards my Nexon,but to me it looked like it was not even a proper 5 seater. Those who have sat inside can comment better..
So far I am disappointed with Venue!

Sir, you were right. Clutch was not getting depressed fully because of the 3rd party mats I had installed.

Yesterday my friend came to check my Nexon before buying it for himself. He was very concerned about parcel hooks/luggage hooks or simply passenger compartment hooks.Its because his wife is a big shopping spree women and keeps on needing these hooks for hanging saree packets to samosa+chutney packet to chowmeen packet etc etc.
He was surprised to find out Tata has provided so many hooks in Nexon. I was also surprised that there are a total of 9 hooks,Yes, nine hooks in different locations all over the car!! Funny thing is that so far I knew of 5 only, not 9 overall.
Its a small thing I know, but these Small - small things add up , and improve the ownership experience of a car,and increase the overall happiness + satisfaction quotient.
He hates his Beat car for not providing these features. And now I love my Nexon more.
In front of his display, I was amused and felt happy about my purchase. But he said that he too is going to be happy soon,wait till festival season.

Nice find, some in the boot, and passenger side have the weight bearing mentioned.

That's great observation Mayankji , those hooks are so cleverly positioned , what I say is things which causes odour maybe hooked in bottom regions (Not to be in contact with A/c) and things which doesn't can be hooked in above (Can be in contact with A/c).
One thing where Hyundai shines always is outright performance (Especially with Diesels ) and giving all bells and whistles . All other brands should learn that . When I had taken my Swift Petrol , I had gone to the showroom with my mom and dad , and where mom's heart went was with Elite I20 Petrol , but I never felt to go with that , hyundai had an upper hand , especially with all features , but where Suzuki swept me off was its handling , K series , 1.2L, VVT engine.
