Water pumps etc are belts where as the engine timing is a timing belt as well for the DDiS 1.6.

Thanks for the confirmation. You learn something everyday. Would be interested to understand why the higher capacity engine uses belts though.
Drive on,
Shibu.
Is the glow plug for 1.3 and 1.6 engine same?
I got the pre heating warning today morning and most probably have to change the glow plugs.

To answer my own question, they are differrent and also about double in price.
Got the glow plugs replaced and the warning has gone.
1,10,000KM. ~8.5 Years. Still shining and going strong. 1.3 engine is smooth as butter. And the turbo kick once crosses the 1900-2000 RPM is still young and energetic.

In the hands of a good installer, the installation can be super clean. I had no idea about any electrical work on car, but with much reading, tools and confidence, you can get this done on the alpha (a buddy suggested). Alpha headlights are extremely weak for daily use in city or highway. I have done the upgrade myself (with my buddy) from stock to Morimotos Stage 4 and it was totally worth it. It's been running for years now without any problems.

Hello sir, where did you source the Morimotos from, may I ask? I have been searching high, and searching low; but no joy.
In the interim, I have switched to IPH bi-xenons in the fogs and 2-inch led projectors nestled behind the front grill.
Help!

Could you please share a photo of your setup and provide some feedback?
I'm considering installing IPH bi-xenons (tri-colour) for the fog lights.
I've noticed that the headlights on the Scross Zeta are quite inadequate for my night drives to my hometown in Kokan.
So this happened today while opening the boot. Placed an order for the replacement at the nearest ASS. 1750 for the part, 1500 for painting and 200 for fitting. Wait time of one week.
150K Kms service update:
Odo @ 148500
Changed engine oil / oil filter / front and rear brake pads .
Turbo intake side pipping had some oil built up on the pipe, this was informed as a complained. This was the reason for the hurried service. I had previously mentioned I wanted to move to a 5000 km oil change interval and thus had changed oil from an FNG at 146k kms and they had overfilled the sump. I was aware of the overfill, but was unable to drain as I had familial commitments, but kept monitoring. This was how I had noticed the oil at intake side pipe of the turbo.
Intercooled was removed and cleaned with diesel, the mounting points of the intercooler and pipes thoroughly cleaned and dried. The condensor was also cleaned using compressed air when the intercooler was removed.
During the oil change, added ceratec from liquimoly. 250ml of ceratec to 2900ml of engine oil. Too early for feedback, will report after accruing some kilometers.
Further plans:
ceratec in gear oil at 160K kms gear oil change. If anyone knows why I should not add ceratec to the gear oil, let me know.

Was this the first time that rear pads were changed in your car? What was the cost?
8 years, 56k kms of fun! 1.6 Delta. 320Nm, rear discs, 6 speed manual. And Diesel efficiency!

This is the third set for the car. First from factory, second was around 2019/2020 and used baleno rs pads. The third set, from today was again baleno rs pads. The rear rotors are still the ones from the factory.
The front has had the rotors replaced once.

ceratec in gear oil at 160K kms gear oil change. If anyone knows why I should not add ceratec to the gear oil, let me know.

Doesn't Liquimoli have a dedicated additive for the gearbox? I'd rather use that rather than using in the gearbox something meant to be put in engines.

Correct. They have MOS2. I would most likely use that over ceratec, though that can also be used. MOS2 is just better for the gearbox over ceratec.

My car(1.6) is currently at 148k and is due for 150k service in the next month or so. I am looking for a reliable service centre in Cochin area or Bangalore.
Where do you service your's or can you suggest some good place?
