Hello everyone,
I am getting an April 2023 Manufactured Ignis Zeta MT for 6.81 OTR Delhi( including Extended Warranty)
Overall discount is almost 1.1L. Is it a good deal? It’s almost 1 year old.

Further any help regarding 2023 Stock Alpha/Zeta MT in NCR will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Too old for the discount / benefits being offered. You can anyway extract a healthy 50 - 60k benefits on a 2024 model , let a alone a year old model.

Would suggest to check out Nov / Dec 2023 model with similar ~ 1 L discounts.

Also , push for higher cash discounts. Generally, their ‘discounts’ only mean these useless accessories which have inflated prices.

This is proper 1.04L discount for 2023 Model(1L cash plus 4K corporate). No free accessories.
Similar deal for 2024 model works out to be 7.35L. (50k cash plus 4K corporate)

Any member who have leads for 2023 MY Ignis Zeta/Alpha models please let me know.

Thanks in advance !

Looks to be a decent deal but try pushing for more or try adding accessories on top of it.

For reference last year (2023) in January we bought a 2022 Aug manufactured Ignis Zeta Manual for around 7.2lac, ~50k cash discount + 5k corporate+ few free accessories (rear camera+ cover + footwell lighting).

There was an small update to Ignis last year, with hill hold and ESP added to the lineup. I believe the manual variant will have ESP as a standard feature now which MY 2022 models didn't have.

Keyless Entry Issue.

Iam facing the issue while locking the car via remote which is factory fitted. After pressing 5-6 times also it doesn't lock. Suddenly it locks & then when unlock at the time it unlocks & locks properly. What can be issue any idea. If battery is the issue why only facing issue while locking & not while unlocking? Please suggest

Update after 17,019 km and 1 year

Iggy just got serviced at 17000 km 2 weeks ago, and i thought it is time to add more updates to my ownership review.

1. AC struggles to cool initially in summer, when temperatures cross 37-38 degree Celsius.

2. Boot is surprisingly adequate! I remember telling myself that the missus and I will have to pack light when going on long trips. I am never a fan of placing the rear seats down for extra luggage space, but i never had to until now. One 79 cm large suitcase at the bottom + Two 55 cm suitcases on top + Two medium duffel bags can be easily placed in the boot (without the parcel try ofc) and this placement of luggage does not obstruct my rear view either.

3. Environmental odour seeps into the vehicle even when windows are closed and air recirculation is disabled. Not sure why this is happening.

4. The under-bonnet insulation/lining is beginning to come off. SA said it is an issue with all Ignis vehicles and quoted 1200 for replacement as it is not covered under warranty.

5. I had to replace my glove box as i broke it a few months ago trying to replace the AC filter myself. SA quoted 1600 along with going to the service centre again to get it replaced as the part was not in stock. I respectfully declined, bought the part on Boodmo for around 600 and changed it myself.

6. Barring a single scratch byan errant BMTC bus driver, Iggy has not been involved in any accidents so far (touchwood). I consider it an achievement keeping in mind the Bengaluru traffic and lawless state of affairs on roads.

7. I have begun to keep pepper spray in my vehicle seeing the number of road-rage incidents.

8. Mileage has improved slightly. 15 kmpl in medium to heavy traffic and 21-22 kmpl on highways. Though I do admit that the improvement may also be because I have started to drive more sedately.

Here's to munching more miles with this pocket dynamite!

Hi team,

I bought an Ignis AMT 3 months ago as my second (city) car. So far I am pleased with the car, especially with the spirited engine that revs and pulls eagerly.

I did the first free service and had one complaint to record: In the first and second gear, when I stomp the accelerator, the car judders. It happens only when I push the accelerator hard, and not when I press it lightly. I told the service advisor, who ignored it saying "that is how AGS behaves in all maruti cars". He even implied I was comparing it to my larger car, and therefore my expectations were wrong.

My question to all Ignis/Celerio AGS owners: Is this a defect I must push to get repaired, or is it really how Maruti AGS hatchbacks behave? I am seeking your inputs so I can sort this out during the second service.

Thanks for your guidance!

Thanks for the update... Do you ever face the 1st and 2nd gear judder under hard acceleration? Is this an annoying "feature" of Maruti AGS?

I have never noticed any type of judder when moving from 1st to 2nd gear. The car behaves smoothly. The only issue I faced was getting used to the delayed up or down shift of gears from Manual. But if you are driving sedately, it is barely noticeable. But have never keenly observed it. Will try to feel if there is any judder next time I take out the car.

The car has completed nearly 4.5 years of driving with 37K on the Odo. I am contemplating changing the transmission oil next service due at 38.5K. If any of you learned folks have any advice on this, please share your 2 cents.

I never faced this in my AltoK10 AGS or Ignis AGS.
If you also occasionally experience a judder in creep at very slow speed in 1st - your clutch/pressure plate are possibly worn. Very likely scenario if your car runs a lot in b2b traffic regularly. Maybe worth a check.

Hi Virgo129. Had a long trip today. I keenly observed for any vibration while shifting from 1st and 2nd but couldn't feel any. Was smooth.

But are you sure this Judder is due to transmission? If may be some other component creating this at that particular speed or acceleration.

Thanks mm_shen. Given that it is a new Ignis with ~1,000 km on odo, and that judder happens only under hard acceleration in 1 & 2, here are the possibilities:
1. Clutch slip
2. Wheel spin (felt as judder inside)
3. Shifting software glitch
4. AGS cannot handle high torques

The MASS advisor is completely clueless. He asked me what other car I drove, and he keeps saying "Sir don't compare to your BMW". Hardly useful.

There are other issues too. Sometimes when I want to overtake another vehicle and I stomp the accelerator, the car *upshifts* instead of dropping a gear. Scary if that happened on a highway. Unpredictable behaviour on an Maruti AGS after so many years on millions of Maruti cars, is not acceptable.

I drive the Ignis with a very light right foot now. It is a sad compromise, because the engine is such a gem! I truly enjoy my Ignis inside the city, other than the annoying judder and whimsical gearshifts.

My Ignis Zeta AGS is from October 2022 and has done 6700 kilometers. I think i experience both the issues you have mentioned. Its been so since day 1. Service center is not helpful. I have come to believe this is how the gearbox is tuned.

The judder happens when the clutch slips. My Ignis does a lot of 'clutch slipping' for me if rpm is below 1200. I have to be surgical with my right foot to make the gearbox not slip the clutch. The judder happens mainly in first and second because while slipping the clutch, the torque involved is high and the poor clutch's damping springs are overwhelmed. I do not thing its a warped flywheel or something. They should have been better designed. I remember the first gen swifts being notorious for clutch judder due to this very reason.

Regarding the second issue, i face something similar as well, when the TCU decides to shift up at the wrong time, but in a very specific rpm. If am in gears 1 and 2, the normal shift upshift point with moderate throttle is around 2000 rpm. But sometime, even at 2000 rpm, TCU holds the gear. Even a momentary lift off from throttle does not nudge the TCU to shift. What always nudges it to shift up is an increase in throttle application(not flooring the throttle). This is counter intuitive to me. I have made peace with it. But it has never left me wanting for power during an overtake. Is this what you are experiencing?

In highways, if you floor the pedal, TCU will down shift couple of gears to aid overtaking, but shift up immediately if you lift off or reduce throttle input. You have to be steady with the throttle and should not confuse the system. I have no issues with this TCU logic.

Thanks

I am also facing the same issues that you have mentioned and I have also observed any of the above in all of the ignis I have encountered regardless of year and variant.

Maruti's cost cutting and poor quality plastics showing its face here I suppose.
1.I broke my glove box a while back just trying to open It. One of the locks holding it in place broke and I'm using it as it is.Nexa SA quoted 600rs or so for replacement.

2.For the engine bay installation mine is hanging in air slightly but not much. As far as AC is concerned I think the black plastics increase the heat all around. Cuz my ignis is white which is supposed to be the coolest colour and still my interiors are getting hot and I can't manage to turn off ac for 1minute after running it continuously for 1hr.

I too face this issue while overtaking. My solution while overtaking is, put it into manual mode, hold the gear while overtaking and then shift to Drive when overtaking is completed and I am in the lane comfortably.
