By the way - a query. Does it come with intermittent wiper position on the stalk now? Or its still just Mist-Slow-Fast? Place where you and I live, 90% of times we need INT and not the other positions... |

No there are only 2 positions like the old I10 |

Well that kinda blows doesn't it? Even Alto has intermittent wiper. Santro isn't a cheap car by any means. (Yes like you said - my father-in-law's NextGen i10 has the same 2 positions. Its extremely frustrating when driving that car to Konkan!) I'd prefer to have intermittent wipers with manual ORVMs rather than electrically adjusting mirrors but no intermittent wipers! I.e. if Hyundai must save money somehow. I'm just giving them an alternative to easily save. The biggest thing I was frustrated with in my Omni was not a lack of AC. It was lack of intermittent wipers! |

Also curious on why did they leave out the parking sensors. |

Booked the Sportz AMT in Diana Green. Changing the stock wheel to alloys will void the warranty? Tyre size will be retained to 14". Please advice. |

No, it won't void warranty as long as same wheel specs are retained. You are going with same 14". So that should be okay. A small upsize of tyres o 1 level up on profile and patch is generally fine. Nobody frowns at that for warranty. |

SA was saying that it will void the warranty because changing from stock to alloys can damage the suspension. On the other hand, he also informed that no such incident has ever reported in Hyundai, so it wont be an issue. Hence was skeptical. |

I hope SA = Sales adviser and not Service adviser. :D. Otherwise serious doubts about the mechanical engineering degree he holds. Don't worry. You can safely move to alloys. No damage to suspension unless you suddenly change to ultra low profile tires. I'm sure you wont. |

I was planning to book the AMT sports model but giving it a 2nd thought after reading the issues reported with the AMT. Also curious on why did they leave out the parking sensors. |

Both parking sensors are placed towards the middle area of the bumper. Slim reflectors provided on both ends: |

I would like to flag a safety issue for Santro owners opting for the darker colors like Start Dust (Grey) and Marina Blue, i have observed that the OEM provided reflectors do not reflect at all!! How could Hyundai overlook this primary requirement? |

In this picture you are very close to the car & the reflecion may be directed in an angle away from your eye level. |

Perhaps from a distance of a few car lengths - these will be visible properly (and thats where they need to be reflective for being of any use. Reflecting when too close won't be of any use anyway.) However - indeed they seem quite small & could have been a few mm broader to have another row of reflective elements at a different angle. |
