That would be Mobil 1 Full synthetic 0W40. Maruti does have them in stock. Last time I asked the SVC for my Scross 1.6 and they flatly refused to use it since Maruti has strictly advised no other oils to be used on the 1.6 other than the recommended (0W30).

I wanted to go for Servo Futura Synth 0W-40. Which is approved by MSIL but that was not in stock with MS workshop in my hometown Anand. As per workshop manager, I was the first customer who asked for a specific oil. This is common in small-town workshops.

I would bank on Mobil any day eyes closed. As per my experience the best full synthetic engine oil for Diesels that I have used is the Mobil Delvac 1 full synthetic, especially for the 1.3 MJD.

As per communicated by my local Dealer's SA, MSIL is going to discontinue MS Brezza's LDI and VDI models. LDI and VDI variants used to be with only one (driver) airbag and without ABS & EBD. MSIL instructed all their dealers not to take any booking of LDI and VDI variants. IMHO, this is a good move, now all the variants of MS Brezza will be equipped with two airbags and ABS & EBD.

Hi All, I am planning to book my Brezza in Yellow colour - zdi+. what is the current waiting period in pune? I was quoted 14 weeks. I had gone yesterday to book the car but Sai Service hinjewadi was forcing me to get some package (design +coating) as "they are not supposed to take any booking from customers without this package as per policy from maruti". I politely yet firmly, told him that I know all the shenanigans and I don't want the package. They obliged after some hustle. Next was that I wanted to get the insurance done from outside and they have asked me to come back today as they had to take approval from maruti from this.

They are constantly saying that my booking would be last on priority as I am not using the package and would need to wait for long time. I am okay on waiting but I would not spend a single rupee on this I don't want. what is your opinion on this?

Please shoot a mail to Maruti. All these years I have bought Maruti cars from Sai SERVICE and it has always been a good experience. Sad to see the dealers stoop so low. Maruti is known to have a tight leash on their dealers. Please take this up with Maruti. Why don't you try other dealers , my car or Chowgule Industries .

Thanks Rakesh. My experience has also been very good but this is the first instance. I would go and check again today and if the problem persists, I would shoot a mail. I also told my wife that had I been buying an Isuzu or Renault car, I would have got a little worried but being a maruti, I can just drive another 2 kms and find another maruti showroom that would take my booking.

This a common practice of MS dealers in C-grade towns. They always say that extended warranty, accessory package and underbody rubber coating is mandatory. In fact, their quotation is always including these. That is a very bad practice and it's strange to see that dealers in a big city like Pune also use this kind of gimmicks.


If you are going to visit the dealer again, I suggest to carry a Team-BHP keychain with you and flaunt it around in the showroom. They will not try to do that again.

I had posted this quite a long time back. I think it was more to do with abnormal tire pressures(Were above 40psi) than suspension break in.

I've used 0w40 Mobil1 before. Definitely can feel the difference initially on startup, the engine sounds different too. Can't tell how much difference it makes unless I put Magnatec 5w30 again. Having trouble sourcing Mobil1 again locally as the works manager at my dealer resigned.

IDV is down to somewhere around 6 lakhs(Could I have asked for more? I thought it was automated). Paid 15,750 for the renewal from Maruti Insurance and Bajaj Allianz.

Man, you really should register a complaint against this dealer because I recently purchased my Brezza and there is no such design + coating package policy from Maruti's side, there is only 1 policy of no discounts on the car or official accessories and that's it nothing else.
Also, the waiting period quoted by the dealer is too high when I was buying my car I asked my dealer about which colour having the least waiting period and he told its the yellow colour with an average delivery time of 20 - 25 days but the maximum time took was around 6-7 weeks.
I think your dealer is intentionally quoting high waiting period to compel you to go for the design+coating package. Please don't fall into their trap and contact a different dealer.

While we are waiting for the facelifted XUV to decide whether to keep or change our current xuv my wife went ahead and booked a Brezza as her Rapid was beginning to show her age. Its the VDI O variant in pearl white and delivery will be next week.

I had gone yesterday to book the car but Sai Service hinjewadi was forcing me to get some package (design +coating) as "they are not supposed to take any booking from customers without this package as per policy from maruti".

They are trying to con you. Tell them to take a hike.

We certainly can choose the IDV and keep it higher than 6.15 at 2 years. Can stretch upto 8 I suppose but that means higher premiums. I sealed it yet again with the MS Insurance for the 3rd year again Bajaj Allianz and will move to reliance from next year perhaps. I paid 15619. Almost 2 grand more than what reliance had quoted.

Need help from guys who have access to the ZDI+ and an iPhone.

I have got myself a Swift ZXi+ yesterday and while calls go seamlessly via the infotainment system, music does not play via application. Music plays when I connect it via USB, but not via Bluetooth.

Any help will be much appreciated.

I have a facelift S-Cross Zeta, and both my OnePlus 5T and iPhone 7 can stream music over Bluetooth fine. Didn't need to do any extra configuration.
