Its bad engineering just for the sake of making them costly. I had to leave my Vento at service today again. Small glitches keep appearing and the heavy doors don't seem to prevent any of them ![]() | |

Not necessarily in this context, but would like to quote a one liner "Complexity is the mother of technology, but creativity is the key to simplicity!" Quote:

BHPian ![]() | ![]() I saw a jap car on a flatbed ok hold your breath here it comes...the Toyota Innova about 2 months back in Bengaluru just as you enter Koramangla. They were taking it to Ravindu Toyota under that 10km long elevated bridge..oh yeah it's called Electronic City I guess. Dad and me were keen to know what happened since we've never seen an Innova break-down(hopefully it didn't break down) and also since we own one and love it. |

| ![]() Spotted this VW Vento on a flatbed tow truck yesterday in Jaipur. No visible sign of any accident from any angle. The driver of the truck was driving very rashly and the car was literally dancing on its suspension. It was quite a sight to see how the suspension was faithfully doing its duty even when the car is non functional. ![]() |

Infractions: 0/1 (5) | ![]() I dont have any photos but recently i saw one Polo and Laura being carried on flatbeds. Polo was looking new & Laura also was not very old. Sad to see that new cars face such problems. Any Idea what is the general cause for such problems with VW & Skoda cars? |

| ![]() Spotted a Audi A6 with its hood up on the kerbside of S.V Road in Mumbai today near Pawan Hans at around 12.30 pm today. I assume the car to be a new one as the plastic covers were still on. The poor owner was suited up and and talking on the phone to what I presume to be Audi Roadside Assistance.Sorry could not take a picture as I was riding my scooter. |

| ![]() I don't know if this counts, but I saw a Skoda Laura being transported on a flatbed yesterday on MM Road in Bangalore. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() An Oil Pump failure within the engine would cause the car to loose oil pressure and the engine to fail. This would also cause the Vacuum pump to fail which in turn makes the brakes non-existent! Scary situation to be in. ![]() |
