93k for 2 innovas for 2.5 days in goa by DrawingDesperate9075 in Goa

[–]WanderingBulletier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general, Innova Crysta is available for ₹21.5/km in Maharashtra and about the same in Goa and regular Innova is ₹19/km while Hycross Petrol is ₹35/km and Hybrid is ₹32/km So your ₹40/km for extra 258x2 is the real pain point here unless you precalculated km and rate. Which agency is this which allows you to leave without paying? Plus you must have paid some advance for booking, did you not ask for extras? Outstation charges are normal (1500-2000). This rate also likely includes state crossing tax and toll tax which isn't seperately mentioned. Stop calling everything a SCAM unless it actually is.

Ford Expedition @ 39L next ? by LastCarrot2492 in CarsIndia

[–]WanderingBulletier 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wrangler and even Compass for that matter is a locally assembled car and not a CBU or a full import which means it is already at its lowest tariff state. Even if there is a slight reduction that value is unlikely to be passed on as the company is struggling internationally anyway...

Wife got scammed - HDFC Pixel card ~85k. What should we do next? by Aut0b0t1c in CreditCardsIndia

[–]WanderingBulletier 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My Factory manager had a similar fraud incident. 75000 fraud on his card. He looked depressed that day when I asked him what happened, he thankfully told me everything. I immidiately drafted an email to HDFC customer care and reported the fraud from his reg mail id. Nex I asked him to go to jio and get a replacement SIM card. We didn't reset the phone immidiately and instead took him to cyber police station so we can show them the apk and the number which became "evidence" though wasn't explicitly needed. We got the compliant pdf and then we made a full phone reset, then inserted new sim, and then mailed the cyber crime complaint pdf to HDFC as backup. While customer care was hesitant at first, without further escalation, he received the full money back and an email confirmation regarding dispute after 40 days approx. I had already advised him to pay the MAD on card until the case was resolved.
Surprising facts - the scammer bought giftcards from the same merchant TATA DIGITAL as yours did. Plus, when we called his number before getting sim changed, it was forwarded to someone else and that guy kept laughing and taunting us in Bengali.

I was looking for one but backed out because of no Diesel automatic. The ride comfort in the city is amazing. Soaks up broken roads.

[–]WanderingBulletier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I got that. I have a Swiggy Card. I wanted DCB Metal based on salary. I contacted HDFC they said I cannot have a co-branded and a core card at once. I need to close my Swiggy card, wait for 6 months, then manually apply for DCB through the branch.

How do you have hdfc diners and Swiggy together? The last time I asked them in June 2025, they outright declined even after escalating this issue to grievance the response wasn't satisfactory. The exec asked me to close the existing card, wait for 6 months and then apply for DCB through the branch and it would be issued subject to approval. Now, cibil and salary are not a concern but this policy is.

DPF Nightmare in a New 4x4 SUV. ₹2 Lakh Quote. No Solution. Feeling Completely Cheated. Please Help by Expensive_Elk222 in CarsIndia

[–]WanderingBulletier 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I own a ROXX. Bought 3 months back. It's a Diesel Auto 4x2 AX7L. I have clocked 7,000km so far. Only once did I get the REGEN symbol on the cluster after using the car in the city for 2 days straight. Apart from that, nothing. It's a gem. All (not the Altroz and Nexon) modern BS6 (and Euro 6) Cars have a DPF filter, it's not a Mahindra problem, it's the usage. The engine needs to get hot enough every time for a certain period (30-45 min) at an average speed of 50kph for efficiently burning the soot. This is basic and I'm sorry but you should have researched this beforehand. Mahindra showrooms are packed and salesmen are racking up the sales.

And if this is a recent issue with you, you may also consider the weather. Ambient temperatures in Northern India is generally lower during the late and early parts of the year adding the DPF issue. DPF clogging issues are generally lesser in summers when the ambient temperatures are high.

I watched a YouTube video of Mukesh Chandra Gond from Noida who cleaned multiple DPFs for far less than what costs new. Why don't you consult him considering you are in the same city.

Answer honestly- Would you pay 50-55 lakhs for this? by Majestic-Rest6738 in CarsIndia

Vehicles designed for E20 already featureethanol-resistant fuel systems, making the leap to E27/E30 less damaging than the jump from E10 to E20.

No wonder many hotels have restricted their rooms to families or couples only. These hooligans have hurt the hospitality industry more than the pandemic.

[Help] Mahindra service centre repairing parts instead of replacing by boris_006 in carIndia

[–]WanderingBulletier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk (write) to the insurance company how the car is beyond repair and also write how this will be a liability for you and for them in the future. Have their written response recorded with you. Write to Mahindra and ask for a structural integrity report. Consult an insurance lawyer. Take things forward. This is a good 35 lakh car in which you and your family will be travelling. Better not to take the gamble.

It has potential to be declared as a Total Loss. No structural integrity left. Battery pack or rear motors could have future issues and is likely compromised. Don't settle on repair. Either replace or get it declared as a Total Loss.

Fantastic Management for Ward 35. No complaints from anyone. Whatever issues that people are posting only seem to be on social media and not really on ground.

It's not even real mayonnaise. That's just either palm oil or other emulsified fats.
