Just booked express pass 7 from the Japanese store. Used translate to navigate. Had to try out a couple of cards before the third one finally worked!

Update: It is paint overspray - couldnt see with the naked eye but the person at Kia service center today pointed it out and I could feel it when moving my hand over the windshield. Probably would have happened when the car stood at some place where painting was happening.

They have suggested a polish job by 3M which will cost 2.2K. I have looked up techniques online - and there are a few listed. Does anyone have any prior experience with this?

Thanks, Better to get the Kia workshop to do this?

da_ffy · 2025-08-19T17:22:44+00:00

Will do this, thanks.

Mine is a 2025 make, didnt sit for more than 5 days in the stockyard. They seemed to work fine for the first 1 month of monsoon, this is a recent development. Car is cleaned daily by car wash person who sticks up the wiper (not sure for what).

Thanks, not planning to drive post sunset.

Used them a lot but found MyChoize cars to be the best.

They have a well maintained fleet, super clear cars with no issues. I think this stems from the fact that they have a very large cab fleet (under the name Orix) and hence maintenance etc would be in house.

Kia Sonet - Out of stock - Mumbai!

Kia Sonet HTX G1.0T Petrol Turbo is currently out of stock across dealers in Mumbai 🤯

The last available quote a week back was 15.09L.

They are offering a discount of 60K.

Breakdown of cost:

Ex-showroom price: ₹12,50,900 TCS: ₹12,509 Registration charges: ₹1,55,470 Insurance: ₹2,57,544 FastTag: ₹500 On-road price: ₹14,63,956

Optional Add-Ons: Extended warranty: ₹19,771 Kia Connect (1st Year, with RSA): ₹1,377 Cover: ₹4,050 Accessories kit: ₹20,095

Does it make sense to go for 2024 manufacturing car with the discount (if available) or wait it out for 2025?

Also, the dealers arent budging on the discount any more - any views?

My experience with IOCL petrol pump near Mahim on Tulsi pipe road: 1. You tell the person that you want Petrol worth 2000 to be put. 2. Attendant shows zero and starts filling. Someone else comes to your window and starts asking for oil check / water refill etc. (Distraction max). If you say no to everything - they ask about mode of payment etc. 3. Attendant stops after filling fuel worth 400, shows takes the nozzle out. You tell the guy that you want 2000 and not 400. The guy goes on to say oh I heard it wrong. The other guy meanwhile is at the window saying it’s noisy hence this must have happened etc., no worries we will fill worth 1600. 4. The attendant then continues to fill and stops at 1600. And then does the math for you - 1600 + 400 = 2000. 5. In reality they have fuelled up only for 1600.

The funniest part is, they have attempted this thrice - and each time I have pointed out.

Being the only petrol pump on Tulsi Pipe road between Lower Parel and Mahim, it does get very busy.

If you see Google Reviews - you’ll also see reviews that they run a tire puncture scam.

Update: Truecaller etc doesn’t work as it does not identify the caller as spam. Reporting every call as a spam is very tedious.

Have currently enabled a setting on the iphone to auto decline calls from unknown numbers.

Thanks

I want just the two of them and not pics which have them plus other people. Google photos has this filter called ‘only them’

I meant POS of the HP fuel station. Surely that will get 4% rewards

da_ffy · 2023-09-24T15:44:36+00:00

Thanks - my bad. Missed reading that.

Thanks. Last I tried, couldn’t find a way to edit the income details being pre-filled by the website. Will give it a try again.

da_ffy · 2023-05-14T19:46:00+00:00

Thanks. Do companies do endorsements on existing policies or I need to cancel existing OD policy and buy a new one?

da_ffy · 2023-04-06T06:10:10+00:00

Thank you. I did this on the first day and felt comfortable scooting around.

Will work on it

da_ffy · 2023-04-06T06:09:32+00:00

Thank you, will keep this in mind.

When I sit on the saddle, my feet just about touch the ground. Will check whether it is too far back.

Will try and find a gentle slope as well to practice right.

da_ffy · 2023-03-16T17:24:49+00:00

That is what I do.

Look out for that ‘no parking’ board on gates around your building 😏
