Which car is this? Can you get a few images and post them here so we can suggest?! I mean the area where the leak is observed?

Depending on the area of leakage and the part, the cost of repair would be determined.

Not a too old phenomenon but have seen a few complaints about that tyre.

Apologies for the poor quality images, shall use a better camera and update the thread.
Fantastic bit of info. This is something that has been on my mind ever since I got my Seltos GTX+ DCT a few months ago.

For a vehicle that is so fully loaded, not having backlit power switches is jarring - and that’s the real problem (not the fact that I can still see the switches, thanks to interior door lighting etc).

Would you happen to know
1 - if these are the same switches/part numbers for the Seltos as well? (I know that a lot of parts are shared between the two - and the parts have both Kia and Hyundai logos). I was trying to find a service manual to check the part numbers but I couldn’t find it.

2 - Since Aliexpress is now not delivering, do you know of any other reliable source that will deliver the switches? Can be international shipping too.

TIA and cheers

Switch design is different from the model that I have. I'll search and share the link here.

Let me search options for this and get back.

Has AliExpress resumed shipping to India? I know that earlier they had stopped.

No, it hasn't. I got it shipped to a friend who's family is residing overseas and then it was shipped to India via cargo with some more other items.

Hey Anurag, Sorry to be a bother - but could you find part numbers for the power window switches for the Seltos? If not - just point me in the direction of where to look.

Hi @a4anurag my 2019 1.4 Creta Diesel is completeting 100k this week, would you suggest any periodic maintenance specific for this time? Planning to get coolant and brake fluid flushed, front brakepads replaced , also planning to get the EGR valve cleaned. Is cleaning the intercooler necessary? Any other things needed to be done? I've maintained the car at my FNG and mostly done only oil changes and associated service. Is proactive change of shock absorbers or Bush kit needed? Or should i wait for them to break down.
PS - thanks for sharing the radiator cap replacement tip. I never knew this.
