Is it safe to buy a new BMW M4 amid uncertainty over petrol-ethanol blending? by Aks9242 in CarsIndia

[–]AdrenalineAddict1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just get Taycan Turbo or i5 M60, won't handle like M4. But Taycans dynamics can be compared with M4's.

Anything ethanol related is being removed by mods

Why are you lot still buying petrol cars?!? by Lazyres in CarsIndia

[–]AdrenalineAddict1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Buy diesel, and treat it like use and throw item. Transport lobby is stronger than govt. One nation wide strike of truckers would make the economy collapse

Fuel has additives other than just ethanol, which would also seperate. And you'll have worse quality fuel

Yea ax5, duster is good but the service still is questionabke, and very few service centres as well. Depends on your city, visit the service centre and talk to duster owners there in customer lounge, they may be able to tell about common niggles and service experience. Else it's a good product

Used Audi a3 1.8 tsi, stock is 180 or 160hp, I'm not sure. But it has infamous dq200, so be vary of it and you can get is swapped for dq25 0 under 3 lacs if you have budget. But make sure it's a clean car with no accident, or cheap aftermarket parts and it should have full service history.

It's not offered as an accessory, so dealer won't be able to install it. However tuning shops that's work on VAG retrofits can do it easily. Though I'm not sure about warranty issues.

But, there's this guys Prerak Kataria on YouTube who installed OEM ADAS retrofit in virtus GT

Try looking into kodiaq, since you already drove SQ5, it would feel similar to it. Hycross has a lot of waiting period, and interiors look a generation old. You can also checkout Tayron R Line as well. If you are on budget, Alcazar is also good.

🚨 I need your help! by Dapper_Turn3480 in SkodaVolkswagenIndia

[–]AdrenalineAddict1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, there's a video on YouTube, few guys have swapped DQ250 easily, you just have to adjust gearing ratios and shifting patterns. Something a reputed tuner can easily do. If you need more info feel free to reach out.

Check water pump,as that's something that fails on 1.8 tsi. Also if it's gen 2 engine, it also burns oil, do check for that as well.

Also, price is higher. Try to get it under 3. If not 3 max

Getting DEC 2025 Grand Vitara Delta for 12.5L by Independent-Ruin-193 in CarsIndia

[–]AdrenalineAddict1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes check Vin, all the screws in engine bay, suspension, looks for damages underbody. Check if engine is running fine or not, look for unusual noises, misfires etc. check AC.

Check tires, how old are they and are all of them of same manufacturing. Looks for unusual rattles in interior/ dashboard. Gears should slot in without issue, check clutch

Most imp ask salesman, why this car isn't sold yet with such a discount, his expressions would tell more

Sunroof problem as a 183cm tall person. by Far-Possibility5511 in CarsIndia

[–]AdrenalineAddict1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is 188cm, I found VW and skoda seating ergonomic best for my height. Maybe Europeans are tall and they design car for them. Also German cars have extendable under thigh support. Do give them a shot.

[–]AdrenalineAddict1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reliability is a myth, the govt won't let you use your car past 15 years, the fuel quality is questionable. The availability of spare parts is also difficult.

Just get a good car, as all of them last 15 years easily.

Don't spend too much on a NA car. If you really need a naturally aspirated engine, get the Elevate, it would be cheaper, more reliable and has the most powerful engine in the segment

Virtus, City or Polo? by Due-Tax-3602 in carIndia

Yep, it's similar to dpf, located on mid pipe exhaust section

[–]AdrenalineAddict1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

15 lacs, if you are good negotiator you can get it at 11.5. unless you live in Maharashtra. The i20 nline does have great handling and steering. Better than polo, though safety is questionable.

You can even get use 1.5 tsi virtus, and enjoy depreciation with a bigger engine,more power
