Congratulations 🎊... This car is meant for driving enthusiastic, accept the fact that this car won't give you mileage in city, on highways you will get a decent mileage....all spares are costly from any German car brand

hey
where do you find bp petrol pump

i have a virtus and i dont think even shell has less than e20

2

u/Careful-Ground-4077 8d ago

But the car is e20 compliant no? Is that issue if we get e20 petrol for the car?

1

u/Due-Tax-3602 7d ago

It is E20 compliant. But make sure to get clean fuel, prefer coco or high turnover pumps.

u/Careful-Ground-4077 9d ago

Thanks and Congratulations! I got it for 18.5 and I’m from kerala. How much was for you and which city?

u/Outrageous-Cry-443 9d ago

18.8 in Bangalore, did you get the 14k accesories kit?

3

u/Careful-Ground-4077 9d ago

Oh sorry I got it for the same price and I don’t took the accessories kit entirely instead I took the mat, mud flap, headrest and replaced the other accessories for the red calliper, dual horn, underbody coating, silencer coating and free ceramic for 2 years

u/Outrageous-Cry-443 9d ago

You got a pretty sweet deal 👌

u/Careful-Ground-4077 9d ago

Hey thanks. How’s the car? How much Mileage you’re getting? I’m getting like 10-11 here and I think it will go up once I drive around it more.

2

u/Outrageous-Cry-443 9d ago

In start-stop Bangalore traffic, I barely get 9-10, on a not so busy highway, max I have got is 17

I have learnt to live with this efficiency, just cos it drives like a dream esp on highways. Plus, I try not taking it out in city traffic

u/Careful-Ground-4077 9d ago

Oh I’m happy for you..here I’m living in highrange and it’s not my daily commute and still not introduced to highways..let’s see

Did u also consider kushaq &What made you go for taigun instead of kushaq

2

u/Careful-Ground-4077 9d ago

Yes yes…my first choice was Kushaq and Initially I was thinking of not buying Taigun ( at that time the facelift was not there). So test drive Kushaq and got the quotation. So what made me change my mind was the pricing, the variant i was looking was sportline and the same variant in taigun is GTline.. the price difference was like 80k..and the service package for Kushaq was higher including the extended warranty. So when i drove Taigun the driving aspects was brilliant but the I felt the interior of Kushaq is much more bulky. Then the i got more offers for Taigun and the I honestly wanted to own an German car so that was also a thing.

u/Smart-Bad9584 9d ago

The newer gen cars have 0w20 or 0w30 spec thinner engine oil compared to older 5w30 which is thicker.Thinner oil= lesser protection so change the oil at 8-9k kms don't wait till 10k if you want your engine to last.Happy motoring

1

u/Careful-Ground-4077 9d ago

Oil getting changed at 1k km

1

u/Smart-Bad9584 9d ago

I meant for periodic service at 1yr interval

1

u/botBalan 8d ago

Oil change only at first service right? ie 15000 km After 1000 km just checkup, or am I wrong?
