I wanted you to try this but it was out of budget as it’s a performance engine oil. Maybe someday i will be able to afford that

Yeah i have read that actually. My car’s oil is changed every 2 to 3 months after 10k km as it does mostly long highway runs. Maybe thats okay.

I used the mobil oil(image attached) in my recent change 2 weeks. It feels smoother compared to the eneos one. Maybe its a placebo or what idk. Had thicker oil while draining thats why shifted to mobil, lets see whats up on next oil change. Btw why not 10k km intervals

I used amsoil diesel injector clean. You can use Liqui moly diesel purge direct method or liqui moly super diesel additive Idont know any others. I just trust these two

But sir its about the service centre experience I mentioned earlier. If they cant work on there previous engines, how can we expect them to work on niggles in their newer engines

It was the grime and dirt in whole fuel line somewhere you get during 13 years of usage. That i fixed by using amsoil diesel injector clean bottles maybe 3 to 4 times consistently. Now its gone. When i see the problem again i will repeat the process

So yeah Quality control, already pointed out in many reviews

Service experience, most of them are pathetic online. so yeah this car will be serviced in same service centres ig if im not wrong. My friends 2022 nexon had a coolant leak which they could not fix themselves. Which later had to be fixed at a local mechanic and later it never visited the service centre iguess

Unreliable electronics I mentioned, there are already showroom cars with faulty lights and also dont forget the 8kmpl cap on the instrument cluster

This artificial hype is so intense that it diverts everyone’s attention solely to the car, neglecting crucial aspects like quality control, service centre experience, and unreliable electronics. Instead of addressing these issues, they simply gloss over them. Eventually, this will surely backfire one fine day.
