One more things just want to add up you may be knowing.. do not accelerate more than 1500 RPM till first service. This will keeping your engine running smoothly. You can even do 90kmph within 1500 RPM range in top gear. But make sure you wont go more than that. Also do not cruise at same RPM for longer duration.
Mahindra XUV500 Vibration
- Thread Starter XUV500gp
- Start date
Not 1500 Mr,Taximeter,you can say till 2k .Do shifts at 2k always .
By vibration, do you feel the body vibrating? or a rattling kind of noise from the engine?
Are you sure we should do at 2K ? Any specific reason?
I feel it depends on the car (i.e engine capacity), because in XUV i feel like revving more if i go till 2K. May be i will note down the exact engine RPM to Road wheel KMPH for each gear, that may give more insight..

2k is not a high rpm for XUV. The 3k mark is where the rpm can be considered 'high'. Plus, upshifting at 1.5k is sure to bring in vibrations because it is not the proper engine speed for upshifting. Please change your driving style to shifting at 2k rpm because the present condition is detrimental to the transmission. The situation worsens if you're travelling with other people.
I'm attaching a pic from my Scorpio manual. It has the same engine anyway so it should be similar. Try following this and see if it works![[:)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Smile.gif "Smile [:)]")

Brian, Nice chart there.
But I feel XUV should not be up-shifted to 3rd atleast until 45KMPH I feel. And Should be downshifted to 2nd at 35Kmph. Becase XUV Runs at 29KMPH in 3rd gear at ilde engine without Throttle input.
XUV is a high speed highway runner and gains quite a bit of speed between gears (Wide spacing). You generally cannot engage 4th in City.

Well said there![[clap]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Clap.gif "Clap [clap]")
. I completely agree and the main reason I attached the pic was for the rpm values because it has the same engine as the Scorp, just in a higher state of tune. Yes, XUV being meant for the highway has a different transmission. Then, that's all the more reason to stay in gear without shifting up

Hi,
Did you get the reason?
I also noticed this in the same speed/rpm range. Mine is new 2019 Automatic version of XUV500.
Thanks in advance.
