Re: Tata Zest XM (Revotron) Ownership Review
It's engine malfunction indicator!! Maybe It's some sensor problem. Check it at service center.

Hi Venkat,

Many congrats on your new purchase. Just curious to know the resale value you got on your nano.
Congrats on your purchase. Please stick to the manufacturer's specified service interval and take care of the car well in the initial run - in period as specified in the owners manual. Don't rev beyond 3000 RPM in any gears and drive smoothly during the run in period.
IS it 3000 rpm or 2000 rpm ?
I have done 340kms on my zest petrol xms and I am not revving beyond the 2000 rpm

Its 2000 rpm for the first 1800 kms
Thank you ZEST buddies for the replies.
I got nearly Rs.95,000/- for my old Nano.
By the way, I shall certainly follow the good advice for safe run during initial period. I will keep posting

How can I improve mileage in zest ?
I am getting 11 in city currently and using eco doesn't help much
I am having issues in driving the car on an incline from stand still
I even tried sport mode but the car is going back wards and I had to slip the clutch to get it moving.
Not sure what the issue is
I have driven various cars but never had this issue on inclines
The issue is only when I try to start from stand still on an incline

Petrol engines usually have this tendency to stall at inclines because of lack of low end torque. Even Baleno is having the same issue where it seems to be stalling at signal lights!
First of all I feel your engine is new and has not reached its optimum performance zone, let it run for 1500km then you will find difference in power and mileage. Also my suggestion on inclines is please use the handbrake for optimum take off's which will help in prolonging the clutch life and also switch off the AC. Follow this till you complete running in by 1500km. Remember running in of a car also includes bedding of parts like clutch plates and brake pads too.
I have posted the relevant page from zest manual. Also being a new car we tend to be a bit extra cautious too.

The handbrake alone sometimes feel inadequate, so I keep the car in gear along with hand brake
Pull it to the max and get the handbrake adjusted in first service, till that time even if it develops a little play it's ok. All these things take time to bed and we as new get to understand the car as we keep piling kms. Zest is now being sold in South Africa that too with the same petrol and initial reviews say that they were surprised by the cars performance. Check the reviews

So I feel the core engineering and saftey are international standards because TATA in this day and age will not tarnish its image globally in personal vehicle segment.
