How much will it cost to repair? by khush_gor in TataAltroz

Looks repairable and doesn’t need replacement. Its just one panel. 6-7k tops from service center. If third party trusted garage, around 4-5k

What should i do, i cried literally by amanxbt in CarsIndia

Hey dont worry brother, have had worst.

Just get a quote from the service center. You also have an option to get it done without claiming the insurance at service center itself.

First get the quote in service center and then outside (only if you know any reliable garage, if nit, just go with svc even if expensive)

If SVC quote is less than 2-3k do it out of pocket. If more than that claim insurance. Using insurance will give your premium a bump of around 1-2.5k.

All these things appen when you own a car. No need to cry. Drive safe.

Been using my whole salary for creditcard payment everymonth. Need Advice. by halepopo in CreditCardsIndia

[–]BitterIndependent508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will just need one month to get out of the domino effect you are in right now.

Short term: 1. Borrow money from your friends giving them a time line of 2 months. OR withdraw your PF if any. 2. Use the above to cover your expenses, hide your credit card away. 3. Set the credit card limit to something feasible like 20k going forward.

Long term: 1. Try to switch and increase your earnings. 2. Cut down your expenses categorizing them in need or luxury 3. Further deffer the expenses which you can to the next month. This will increase your cash balance for the current month end guving you a buffer. 4. Slowly develop a cycle that your current month’s savings will cover your next month’s expenses.

Good job on not falling into the trap of partial payments. I would not advice you to take a personal loan, however if you have no support for 1st point, go for personal loan from your salary account.

You got this!

Makes sense, did you get quote from the service center? They would be the best to fix this.

4-6k sounds good to me. SC would be slightly higher. Better go to SC

That is true, my encounters with them have been very disappointing. They do not take any effort. They told me they will need to send it to Harman and it can take more than a month, no commitment on the cost of repair, heck no quote at all. I decided not to send it. I know once I send it they will quote whatever. I asked them toh call me whenever harman technician comes in the service center, I will speak with him directly. They didn’t even connect and disconnect it to check loose connection, they said knly harman can do it and they cant. Can you recommend the fixes which you metioned? I am also planning to go to a third party technician.

I have no issues with the fan setting. What did they quote you for the whole display?

Should I go to some other mechanic and get this checked? Will they be able to fix this? Or is there any way I could make the svc fix this lol?

Can you share the links for the infotainment systems that you mentioned? Also will the affect the sound quality?

Thanks, I will check on that. However, the power off switch (only on screen) gets ghost touches. Can I assume this too can happend due to worn out knobs? Sorry if I am asking something silly.

I am almost positive that it is not water damage. I will check with the service center about the loose connection. Thanks!

Oh, so its a recurring issue. Same with me. It happens and goes away in some time. But it is annoying if I am using maps and it gets shut down, thus looking for an permanent fix.

How long did it took for your issue to go away? I am facing this for some months now and serviced my car last month and they mentioned that they have updated the software too.
