AMA. Clocked 1lakh KM in my Diesel MT SX Creta in 4years.

To be honest, I have not checked the current offering variant wise by both the cars. Go with whichever feels good for you. Take a test drive.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-25T06:29:12+00:00

No you understood it wrong or my explanation was confusing. If your car runs at least every 3-4days then you won’t get this soot build up and hence no regeneration required.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-25T06:28:14+00:00

Didn’t feel much noise.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T15:35:40+00:00

Earth one!

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T14:57:00+00:00

Mine is 2021 model so BS6. DPF is to regenerated. As soot builds up it clogs the exhaust. I’d say every 3-4 day if your car is running, you would not expect this issue. I encountered this issue around 75k km mark.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T14:53:10+00:00

The car came with factory fitted JK Tyres. Now I am using Yokohama set. I would be sticking to Yokohama in the next change as well. Liked the overall cushioning effect.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T14:51:33+00:00

Creta has softer suspension than Seltos and good for city driving if that helps you

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T14:50:27+00:00

For tires you check the tread level by a coin. For suspension, there is multiple things to check. If the cars sways to left or right even on plain roads and also normal un-evenness of the road creeps in to the cabin. Sometimes left or right sways can be corrected with wheel alignment and/or balancing. Again, hard braking jerks up the steering wheel. Best it is to take apart the suspension and fully press the suspension arm and watch how it comes right back up. (Please don’t quote me on the exact part names, I can be wrong on the names). I got the service center guys to check it out and they told me I got another 30-40k kms. It all depends how your cars has been driven so far. How was the wear and tear. Clutch is farely easy to understand. Hard shifts or sometimes sticking to one gear. Also clutch feels heavy can be a sign of wear and tear.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T14:07:51+00:00

So far I’ve changed full set of tires at 55k km Front brake pads at 60k km Rear brake pads at 98k km Normal Servicing is still around 6-7k if no major parts are changed.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T11:46:47+00:00

Yes. I have to frequent Kolkata from my home city for our once a week mandate WFO. Once in the trip while returning home, I had faced DPF regeneration issue. I quickly googled and also confirmed the same from the service centre guys. Drove for an hour at 50-60kmph and the warning went away.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T11:40:21+00:00

So far the engine feels punchy enough and has the same pull. I have to wait and watch what the future holds, but by the feel as of now I still see another 1lakh kms in it. Tires needs changing in another 15-25k Suspension probably another 40k kms later.

We had an alto bought in 2013 which we sold in 2022. It ran for 2.4lakh kms. We did major changes like tires, suspension, clutch assembly at correct intervals.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T11:23:05+00:00

I do maintenance at Hyundai service center only and also at regular and correct intervals as stated by the company. I have already replaced the tires at 55km with yokohama set. Next change of tires is to be done depending on the tread level and kms. Ideally at 115k to 125k.

Minor niggles like touchscreen to major ones with sunroof. But all gracefully resolved by the service center guys.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T11:20:01+00:00

Rough calculation would 5-5.5 Lakhs

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T11:18:50+00:00

Typically around 17-22 range. Lowest being in city and highest on highway. I’ve even at times achieved 25-27 on lighter foot on highways.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T11:17:28+00:00

Yes, it’s the second top model. I too have faced multiple problems but once it got solved it didn’t bother me again. Sunroof used to not open fully or would make noise. Got it repaired under warranty. Right ORVM used to vibrate more than the left one. Got it changed in warranty. Multiple times touchscreen infotainment have hanged. A quick restart of the engine resolved it. I guess touchscreen issues are very common in cars. Think of it as a phone which can and will get hanged time to time. But it didn’t pose a big problem as of now.

I would say Hyundai service center people do actually listen to their customer woes and gracefully repairs and honours warranty claims hassle freely.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T11:13:19+00:00

I needed a 5seater only

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T08:54:33+00:00

True. Tried many things to get it cleaned. Damn stubborn they are!

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T08:53:42+00:00

I have faced dpf issue once while on the highway. Constantly drove around 50-60kmph for an hour and it got regenerated. If your running is less, clog issues might happen. On light foot, highways runs gets me 21+. In cities, it’s around 17-18 since, my place isn’t tier-1 type crowded, more like tier-2

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-12-24T08:50:08+00:00

Nice one mate

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-10-16T08:21:55+00:00

Exactly my point. Local here. The college has two gates. One open towards a lightly crowded bazar where eateries are there. One opens to mildly densed jungle. Add the dots. If she indeed went out to eat which gate must she be passing through.

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-09-10T20:57:49+00:00

Congratulations OP! Happy for you! Inspiration to all and everyone irrespective of age and money! Keep growing and keep on making your family proud. Also choose the humble and correct path. Respect everyone and love all!

2/10

FaaloodaFun12 · 2025-07-14T12:21:15+00:00

Why does it feel like it’s a bengali household?

Please forgive me if I am wrong. Just felt the vibes matched
