| We have been having a discussion in one of the other forums about Low Fuel Warning Indicator in the SX4 and I was propounding that there is in fact one. Many were berating there was'nt any. To my shock i was told by a senior advisor in Maruti Service center that NO MARUTI car has a low fuel warning indicator LamP!! ![]() Is that so? Have any of you Maruti (any model) owners seen the lamp glow ? Ever? What i find surprising is that this is so only in India. I found a few manuals for Sx4 US/Japan that said the low fuel warning lamp does exist. ![]()

| Fuel gauge should be more than enough for the purpose. May be this feature being present in other cars is pushing people to question about this. Not a useful feature though.

| Senior - BHPian | Tell me how many of you guys drive the car to the near empty? There are so many useful features that Maruti and others have simply left out. Why dont we talk about them rather than a not so useful low fuel indicator? We always have the level indicator. As a responsible driver, I think most of us looks at the indicators once in a while. I dont think a thread needs to be dedicated to this

Infractions: 0/1 (8) | No low fuel indicator in any Maruti car? Wow. That's intersting. Though this is a glaring 'miss' from Maruti, I don't think it's a deal breaker isnt it? I rarely drive my Palio till the low fuel indicator comes on. I guess, because most cars have this feature nowadays, people feel like Maruti is cost cutting on this but then my Palio doesn't have a 'fasten seat belt' indicator so I guess every company gives you something and takes away something. The NHC doesn't have a temperature indicator. Isn't that more of a required feature then a low fuel indicator lamp? By the way, I have always wondered how can one know if the city is overheating? Is the system similar to the VW Beetle that has a blue lamp which glows till the engine reaches it's optimum operating temperature and then switches off automatically. If the engine overheats, a red light glows in the instrument cluster warning of the same. How does it work in the NHC?
