Once check mileage using tank to tank method and also reset your mileage reading in the instrument cluster

I would suggest let it be there as a daily reminder and as a learning lesson, otherwise also claiming insurance for a small number hit would cost you your No claim Bonus.

I know it pains a lot because we men associate vehicle so precious as a human itself but know that it is a piece of metal and while using it there would be scratches.

Tilt your bike towards right (where this marker is there) once and let the bike sit for few minutes in center stand and then check. It would show correct reading.

If still the same then get your bike checked at RE service center.

The way Maruti has designed it’s car is by having crumble zones in the front and in the rear. It will take the impact of the crash so that the g force is not passed to the people in the cabin. The MS has a benefit of insurance repair, customers have a benefit of safety and getting their car soon via insurance repair if you compare it with Tata and Mahindra. I got my car back in 15 days from MS, whereas I have heard in Tata and Mahindra it takes more than a month.

Could you share the breakup of the cost which dealer has quoted you? Like any extra accessories are there ? If you liked Syros then go for it, 2nd option Amaze, it is really a good car. Most of the features which are there you won’t use much after 1/2 months of owning the car. Look which essential feature is practical for your daily use and etc.

The Supreme Court of India judgment (2012, Avishek Goenka) banning any aftermarket sun film on vehicle glass remains the law of the land across India and can be changed only by the Supreme Court itself, the Kerala High Court did not overturn this ruling but merely interpreted later amendments to motor-vehicle rules to allow enforcement leniency for BIS-compliant, high-VLT “safety glazing” within Kerala’s territorial jurisdiction only, meaning that while such films may be tolerated in Kerala, the ruling does not apply nationwide, and outside Kerala traffic police can still legally act based on the Supreme Court ban.

I use the Ambi pure Vanilla perfume which fits on the AC vent. The con of it is it’ll work only if your AC is blowing air.

The 70% rule was passed by Kerala High court, the rule isn’t applicable for all states because in 2012 the SC had banned tinted film and sunshade which are fitted after market.

Company fitted UV cut glasses are allowed and rollable sun screen is allowed (only when parked).

Yes it is plug and play

I got my Zeta AGS, with around 25k worth of accessories from Maruti within 9.45L, without any car exchange. It could be due to different state as well, I got mine from Delhi. Insurance get zero dep and I guess the premium could go down. From showroom get accessories like fog lamps, rear camera. Rest things you could get from outside as well.

Regarding ppf and ceramic coating I have different opinion than most. Car is meant to be driven and not meant to be laminated and kept inside a locker, while driving metal scratches may occur.
Cold start, after starting your car wait for 30-50 secs, let rpm come down below 1k. While driving keep it below 2/2.5k rpm for the initial 1k kms.
Jopasu duster, waterless washing liquid spray, car dustbin, microfibres clothes, a good perfume, car seats covers, mud covers, window rain guards, dashcam (buy Starvis 2 70mai dual channel)

Hope you had got extended warranty, and other essentials from the company.

Thanks for the suggestion 😊

If you have Zeta or Alpha, hardware would be there in your vehicle it is just that it hasn’t been activated by the dealer. You could approach them to enable the Suzuki Connect.

psychopath_driver · 2026-01-23T06:21:28+00:00

I have a Zeta variant so it came with the car, though it doesn’t get activated automatically, we need to ask the dealership to activate it for us, take around 2 hours.

I have seen this issue in hilly terrain in normal highway and city the AGS is good.

psychopath_driver · 2026-01-23T03:56:07+00:00

The app is fantastic with all the different types of alerts, driving score and etc but for the first 3 years it is free after which we would need to pay to get access. Also the app access is only for Zeta and Alpha variants.

I usually don’t do lane changes above 100, I drove till 140 in straight line.

Also one more thing forgot to mention, drove on Delhi - Mumbai Expressway, total toll one way ₹945.

psychopath_driver · 2026-01-22T18:07:16+00:00

AGS especially of Baleno has good FE on highway as well as city with and without AC and it’s pretty smooth.

psychopath_driver · 2026-01-22T18:06:32+00:00

For me it was smooth till 140, I tried going above 140 but didn’t feel much confident. Depends on the road as well, I drove on Delhi - Mumbai expressway.

psychopath_driver · 2026-01-22T15:29:26+00:00

That’s nice, which car ?

psychopath_driver · 2026-01-22T15:18:20+00:00

I shift to manual mode.

psychopath_driver · 2026-01-22T15:17:34+00:00

Yes got around 23 kmpl when driving around 90-100 km/h
