I have a 6 and a half year old Ciaz Alpha Automatic model which has run close to 60k KMs. Few months back I started noticing an issue with the auto dimming IRVM. It began malfunctioning and the dimming feature stopped working intermittently. Sometimes I had to give it a few hard taps to make it work again. Now the dimming feature has stopped working completely and I took the car to the authorized service center. The service advisor has suggested to replace the IRVM but he said there are 2 types available based on price. One costs ~4k and the other ~20k. He wasn’t able to satisfactorily say what the exact difference is between the two types.

I have looked up the part on boodmo and found one model for 4k only.

Can I go ahead and get this?

Yeah, this looks just like the one currently in the car, you can definitely go ahead with this one.

Hi all, planning on upgrading my ciaz's stereo from analog to touchscreen for convenience of Google maps, Android auto etc.

We still have the stock analog stereo and have been using only Bluetooth for songs, maps, calls etc.

Can anyone suggest a good touchscreen infotainment with wifi built in.

Budget:-15k to 25k stretchable to ~30k

Car model:-Ciaz (ZXI) 2014

I would suggest you go for a mid range touch panel. I got installed a megasonic IPS display 9 inch system with wired iOS and wireless/wireless Android Auto/Carplay.

Wireless Android Auto works perfectly . While Apple needs to have original wire to connect and then the Apple Carplay will work.
I feel Apple Carplay works better and it is faster.

I got this unit installed in Karol Bagh delhi for about Rs. 9200
it is a 2+32 GB variant. It does not hang or freeze.
I only use - Radio, Carplay/Android Auto, bluetooth calls.

I somehow feel that the audio quality is improved after replacing the stock entertainment unit with this one.

The biggest drawback is - the steering buttons sometimes needs to remapped to their usage - for example. the volume down button will be mapped to volume up or mute automatically.
I rarely use these buttons as I feel they are too small for usage.

I will say you can get a decent touch panel worth Rs.10k with wireless android/apple and rest of the funds can be used to upgrading the speakers for better music experience.

My 2019 Ciaz Alpha petrol has run 52000Km. The stock tires have few thousand Km left. I am thinking of replacing the tires with Continental UC6. Keeping the same size 195/55 R16. Anybody running these tires on Ciaz. Appreciate any feedback?
I am being quoted @ Rs 8300 per tyre. These are slightly cheaper at Tyremarket.com but will go with Madhus.
