Very nice suggestions.
If I am to take a tool kit(like the one which comes with a Bike or cars a decade ago consisting of spanners, spark plug wrench, screw drivers, allen keys, etc) for a long drive, can you gurus please tell me the spanner sizes and the necessary tools which I can take with me.
Cars now a days do not come equipped even with a screw driver or any spanner. Only thing available is the tyre changing kit.
I drive a Wagon R(K10)
Thank You
Thats a good one. You can carry AIO kits which come with interchangeable heads that allows a variety of Nuts and screws to be addressed. Their craze has certainly fallen, partly due to there's not much we can do these days. If i open my XUV 500 Hood, the engine is totally sealed and not one wire is visible open. Even changing headlight bulbs required trip to service center for a newbie.
Second reason could be cost cutting.
