@ kecha - i too get the same sound but it's not from the door but behind the odometer (somewhere in the dashboard) i forgot to report it in my first service. if you visit again ask them to check near the odo.

about the headlight [lol] i read your last lines but still i'd say get them checked again :p
for me the headlights are excellent.(without fog lamps) i feel it has the same throw as my verna. don't know much about bulbs , wait for someone to answer. if you do upgrade please update it here.
@allhyundaicars, Are you using the stock bulbs or did you do any modifications?
How is the visibility when you drive on a highway during night without any street lights and when there is a bit of traffic on the opposite side? This is the time i feel the headlights are very poor. Its decent for city driving.

Hi ravi_kiran, I have upgraded my stock bulbs to Philips X-treme Vision (100%) H4 55/60W bulbs. Purchased from local MGP store for Rs.600 each. The visibility has improved. I have done highway trips in night after the upgrade and i feel it is satisfactory and confidence inspiring atleast until 100-110 KMPH. If you want to drive faster than this then you may need 90/100W bulb upgrade. However, i advise to keep this speed as the limit atleast during the night journeys. Now, i have even upgraded the FOG lamps to same Philips X-treme Vision (100%) H1 55 bulbs (Rs1700/pair). But, yet to test the performance. Going by the difference i felt on the headlights after upgrade, i feel fog lamp upgrade should help in night driving on ghats.

Note: As i have taken 5 years warranty for my new Figo I did not go for any other alteration. These bulb upgrades are just plug and play and covered under warranty as i am sticking to the recommended Volt/Watts.

Hi All,

This post is just to provide clarity to fellow TAIgers about the presence Anti-Roll bar on the All New Figo.
If FordETIS website is to be believed, I can now confirm that Petrol does not have Anti-roll/Stabilizer bars. However, diesel has the same. See below.
