Re: Xuv 5oo

Sorry I could not make out the solution/jugaad you have done for wind-shield reflection of the shiny console cover. Can you pls clarify exactly what you've done to avoid the reflection??[confused]

Guys did a 1000 km trip in xuv,she din't gave me any problem i touched 210km. (no video)I got an average between 13-15.
WOW can XUV do that,that's awesome and the avg is just icing on the cake,but it's really not safe to try such speeds in an SUV, please be careful.

It's very simple,paste black tape matt fininsh, which is available at any sunfilm shop.I have pasted only on the silver strips.

Finally,mahindra has found the solution for brake noise,according to A.S.C there was some ventilation problem with the brake pads[confused].
This is the new designed brake pad.

All those who are complaining about break noise can now go to A.S.C and get it sorted out.

There's also a recall going on for wiper motor.

I guess the brake discs on Iron rock's XUV were replaced with ventilated one's long back.
And the wiper motor too with laminated one's.
The pics you have attached is not visible.

Hey, Congrats on your new ride.

Little thing, Does the player in your car play videos while the car is in motion, cause I had heard somewhere that, the player plays videos only when the car is stationary to prevent one from getting distracted.[anger]
