Ok - this has been troubling me for a long time. Where can I learn
to change the tyres? I don't want to try it out on my car alone,
because I am worried, I wouldn't fit it back correctly & would end
up with problems. Likewise, I would like to learn basic stuff like
changing oil, other fluids etc. Are there are courses for these kind
of stuff?

Hmm. I have been carrying the originals all these days!!! Isn't it
neccessary to carry the originals?

The Maruti handbook has an assistance number - but I was wondering
if it's a paid or free service? If paid, how much does it cost?
Also is there anything like AAA in India which is cheap & helpful?

And this can be very helpful in needy times.
How much does this cost? Also how long does it last if you don't
use it?
