Maruti Ertiga ZXi: Buying and Ownership Experience

[KALINGA]

I did not instal reverse camera yet.
i will suggest to install the LCD screen on the right most corner of the Dashboard or Middle of the dashboard.

The place you mentioned may vibrate the screen. Try to change the location of the screen or just fix it by adding some rubber pad like thing in the vibration are.

Yes..I got a very discount from 3M . As that time some discount was going on. Also i am a old customer so bargain some amount.

Today i have done Pune - Mumbai - Pune , around 400 KM total(With some KM in city). With full load and luggage.

With 100 % AC. On Expressway speed was constant 90/100 KMPH.

Today average 16.5 KMPL on DTE. So i believe the real time mileage should be around 14 KMPL.

As of now my Car has already done 1800 KM in 1 month.

KALINGA. I am been waiting for long time for chrome accessories like that is available for Innova. I could find only tail lamp garnish which looks odd, also the side beedings with crome and chrome door handles. Also you can find ORVM covers but it suits only for LXI or LDI which has no turn LED in it. If any one can provide a link of the seller that would be much helpful.

I found some seller from Indonesia.
But i am not sure those are applicable for Indian model or not.

I will search again and update here.

Thanks... :)

Yes, these alloys are OEM with ZXi & ZDi variant.

Yes, the first servicing has done. Except a car wash, nothing has changed.
The oil change will be in 2nd service. This mileage number is in the city only with speed max 60 KMPH with AC ON.

I am not too confident on the FE being shown on the instrument panel.
I follow the simple manual method
1. Reset the Trip meter when Fuel indicator turns on.
2. Fill in the fuel, full tank or whatever amount.
3. Note the mileage when next Fuel indicator turns on.
4. Calculate FE based on km trip/amount of fuel.

Based on that, my FE is coming around 13kmpl. First service done recently. Almost only city driving, mostly single person and without AC.

Not happy with FE.

Secondly, the FE shown on the instrument panel (not the on the spot one) is between the last time the ignition was switched on and current. I read something like that in the user manual. Is that correct ?
