Yeah tht is true the tyres are noisy. One more thing i observed was on day one when i checked the air pressure outside the shworoom it was 36psi in all the tyres
then I reduced it to 31 ( company old advised pressure was 28psi, now they revised to 30psi, but not sure any corresponding change happend on suspension tuning). So generally I fill 31psi.
Fortunately haven't faced the gear shift problem yet. [/quote]
The gear issue I refer is there on my vehicle from day one. But i happend to check with another Magnum and the gear was behaving the same. In many reviews too i have noticed this point regarding Magnum. But the vehicle I test drove, the gear was really smooth and I just loved it. Will have to check it out in next service.

This may sound funny, but my experience goes like this: Whenever I fill normal diesel irrespective of brand I feel the pickup is really great. So I always use BP normal diesel and happy with it so far. In city I am getting a mileage of 13 kmpl with AC always ON and on highway getting 17.6 kmpl with AC ON and quick accelarations after stops.
I am going for a bulb change today as I will be travelling this weekend to Madurai. Will upgade you the results and BOM used.

From my previous exp I feel 90% of your wheel alignment issues will pop up immediatly after service, on any brand or age. Means the service guys will screw up the settings during alignment correction. So if I am not sure about the center where I service my vehicle, I will insist them not to touch the alignment( and make a point that it is written on job card too). So far my car doesnt face any issue. But then for the weight on front tyres and the condition of our roads, its something which u can always expect on.
