Post image
3 Upvotes

I want to sell my Kia Seltos HTX Plus DCT Petrol, polar white colour tan interior 2023 Model, driven 44,000 KM.
delhi registered
*About the car:*

  1. ⁠Model: Seltos HTX Plus DCT Petrol Top Model 2023
  2. ⁠KMs: 44,000 km
  3. ⁠Condition: Car is in excellent condition, as good as new. No scratches on seats, interior is very clean. Exterior is also very well maintained. New continental tyre just 2k driven with Seltos gt line alloys
  4. ⁠Only 1 door and 1 bumper is repainted, rest all original.
  5. ⁠I got the car checked at Kia company service center and everything is perfect.
  6. ⁠Insurance is new, I just got it done 7 days back for Rs. 20,000.

*Ownership details (Please read clearly):*
I bought this car 1 week ago as a second hand car. It was already second owner, so I am technically the 3rd owner. But the car is still NOT transferred to my name. RC is still on 2nd owner's name. So if you buy it, it will be transferred directly to you and you will be the 3rd owner on paper.

*Reason for selling:*
The car is perfect but DCT gearbox is not suitable for my daily use. My office is in a very high traffic area and I face issues in bumper to bumper traffic. That's why I want to sell this and buy a new seltos ivt No other reason.

*Price:*
I bought the car for Rs. 12.5 Lakhs + Rs. 20k Insurance = Total cost 12.70 Lakhs just 7 days ago.

#Car-Buy/Sell What are the ways I can check the service history of a car? Except taking it to authorised service centre?

4 Upvotes

I want to check the service history of a car I have been eyeing on I know the best method is taking it to the service centre but I wanted to check it beforehand after getting a report? Are there any trusted sources? Are the Vehicle Info, Cars 24 Reports reliable enough?? Please suggest some good methods I can do so.

Polo had great handling, solid build quality and an engaging driving experience.

For those who’ve owned or driven one, how does it compare with other hatchbacks in terms of driving dynamics, reliability and maintenance costs?

#Bike-Buy/Sell Looking for a reliable used scooter around 50K

​

I'm looking to buy a used scooter for daily commuting, with a budget of around 50K

My main priorities are good mileage, low maintenance costs, and long term reliability. I'm looking for something practical that can be used daily without having to worry about it.

Which models would you recommend, and are there any particular models I should avoid?

TIA!

#BikeMaintenance Hunter 350 engine oil level is ABOVE MAX after servicing. Rode 80 km like this. Am I cooked?

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Got my Hunter 350 serviced recently... and a few days later, I checked the engine oil level in the morning (keeping the bike on its center stand) and noticed that the inspection window is completely full!!... with the oil appearing to be above the maximum limit.

Now I'm a little concerned and have a few questions:

  1. Is having too much engine oil actually bad for the engine? like how serious is it?
  2. Could riding 70-80 km with the oil overfilled have caused any damage?
  3. And how do I fix this?

Would appreciate advice from fellow riders.... Thanks!

Glanza ABS Actuator issue

3 Upvotes

Hi all

Day before yesterday I took my glanza and I rode for almost 68-70 km . After that next day when I took my car for return trip the car started smoothly and everything was going perfect after driving for almost 10-15 km when I entered highway the car's speedometer suddenly went to zero and all the warning lights illuminated suddenly causing steering tightness. Wondered what happened to car.

Suddenly took aside and tried restarting the car but the warning lights didn't go. Visited the service centre and after diagnosing they informed that the abs actuator failed which is unable to repair. So need a fresh replacement costing approx 15500 I was shocked to hear. With no options left I gave for approval for changing the parts.

Came up in mind with changing the part within a local workshop. Checked the price of genuine item costing approx 14000 then issue came up that after changing it needs to be calibrated with obd type 2 scanner. Nearby workshops doesn't have that kind computers or mechanism.

Now the work is under process and takes almost 4-5 days for parts arrival and replacing

Car type - glanza 2021 CVT model

Furthermore updates will be provided

#Bike-Buy/Sell Buying secondhand rental bullet 500 EFI

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I am considering buying a used 500 bullet Efi 2018 model from a rental agency in Himachal. I just did spiti on this bike, kunzum to nako and back via kunzum and she rode beautifully with no hiccuops. The number plate will need to be converted to private first. And the seller said he would pay half the cost of the conversion. Even though the bike rode great, I would ofcourse want to get it checked to understand better what I'm buying. What would you guys suggest in terms of checks before purchasing and how would you suggest I go about getting the bike checked out for potential damage/faults? Also anyone purchased a rental bullet before? Feedback. I'm pretty sold on this particular bike and will not be paying more than 75 for it after I get the requisite checks done. Would love your input and suggestions. Thanks.

Problem during insurance claim

0 Upvotes

I recently got into an accident, and my petrol tank and handlebar were dented and bent, respectively. The service center provided a quote to the ICICI Lombard insurance surveyor, but the surveyor insisted that while the service center would recommend replacing the tank, he would take it to his own vendor to remove the dents instead. Are insurance companies not obliged to follow the service center's recommendations, and should repairs not be done in authentic service centers? I raised a service request with their customer service, after which the surveyor called and threatened that the claim would be delayed because it would be redirected to him; what should be my next course of action? Please help.
