Hi i checked in a shop in chennai the tacho was costing 4k with shift light and he gave the option of 7 colors which could be set or all seven in one and will change from time to time the cost of fitting it was 1000 and the time taken will be half a day. Is a fair deal or do u get tacho's even cheaper.

Just wondering if there is a tacho that works on the M800. I have seen it on an alto, but i think that was vxi 1.1 L engine.

Hi Manik, a 3-cylinder tach was available for 3-cylinder engines, from Pricol - when I got mine in 1998, it costed around Rs.800. It was sourced with great difficulty, from a popular accessory shop in Chennai. I was told, even then, by the rather well-informed proprietor (of the shop) that Pricol had stopped manufacture of said tach & that I shouldn't get my hopes up.

Being that as it may, the Pricol website does mention a 'top dash tachometer' that looks quite similar to the one I got for my M800 - 9 years ago !

Any DIS compatible Tacho will work with a Santro. Santro has dual coil ignition system so the normal 4 cylinder setting wont work !

Whats the name of the shop? Even my cousin is on the lookout for one in Chennai.

OT: for a moment there, I was wondering why Mclaren, the thread starter, was talking like a newb.. didnt realize the thread is 2 years old !!

Guys,your spending this much money on a tacho,why do you just put in those extra bucks and get yourslf a good one.YOu have fake/unbranded tachos costing 3500rs but they are not at all accurate.

Bleage buy a genuine autoguage,if you want a quality product or else go in for the autometers/autogage series if you have a lot of dough.

Have you ever seen his introduction?

I tried to source a tachometer through insiders at PRICOL, but wasn't successful. My contacts were told that these are only for export, but I think that's a whole lot of bull.

Hey! can someone pls tell me if i can fix a tacho to my matiz? Does it have dual coil ignition>

Also, i've heard of some tacho's which can be connected to the cig lighter socket, and need no extra wiring. Are these accurate? how much do they cost? and where can i get them from??

[aditya.86]

U can get the normal autoguage tachos for 2.5k with the seven color display and the shift light in coimbatore.And only dual coil tachos work for a santro as the normal tachos will give you the output if only 2 cylinders.

[TARUL]

Hey please post some pics would love to see the tacho.
