  1. Owning the Rexton for close to 10months having done close to 15k KM, I simply love daily driving it.

    God knows why so much hatred towards Rextons. For me this is far more comfy than the sorento 2012 model (which my relation has).

      @fiat fan What you mentioned is correct. But now adays there are many ssangyong specialists and we can get the work done at a lower cost compared to at agents. But still maintaining a SUV is very expensive than a car i must say. 

      Like you mentioned SD is important and timely maintenance too. I like mine more because mine has tuned to get some more juice out of it than the ordinary so the power delivery is quite good compared to standard. And the turbo lag and other inherited issues which most of the users claims are not there in mine. So i guess i'm going to have to for a long time until i go bankrupt or migrate :D

      @hrm my relation is using it for like 5+ years now and iv gone and driven it many times. It has a good pulling power and there is no doubt. but compared to mine the comfort level is little lower side. It seems to have bit stiffer suspension setup i guess. Its not only me who's saying it but my relatives too who have gone in both vehicles :) 

      But the power delivery of the sorento is next level i must say.

      @Dee Jay SD supposed be cleaner than all other diesel categories. but this looks more like otherway around. more yellowish means more sulfur content as I know.

  6. What does everyone here think of the new locally assembled Hyundai Grand i10? 

    1. PerfMad

      PerfMad

      I don't think it will get sold as they intended it to be. This is way overpriced. For this price there are plenty of low millage 2nd hand vehicles you can go for as per my understanding.

      And there is no fun unless you have atleast a tiny bit of work to be done once in a while in ur vehicle :D

      @iRage not that freely available. As most has very old tyres. And most are quoted around 65k upwards each (given that these also either chinese or thaiwan made ones). Still wondering which would be a good and reliable fit for mine.

  15. Gearbox seems to refuse to go into Drive without being warmed up now, it has gotten considerably worse in the past year, quick investigations suggest that it is time to rebuild the Gearbox, there's a place that offers 6 months warranty and has the repair kit for it. That's 75k (25k of it being the damn fluid) gone :D

      Check NILWALA motors as well. they are specialized in gearbox repairs

      @Hyaenidae No problem. Let me know the feedback after usage. The oil is recommended mostly for Korean vehicles only (as per the agent). Hope you're having a korean vehicle.

      @tiv this is the locally assembled variant. Previous owner have changed the shell to Ssanyong one as it gives more looks like a full size suv.
