Following the above religiously. Are the above necessary or can I do anything more ?

Is'nt it the other way round? First shift to P, and then apply EPB. In the Creta manual, it says so in multiple places.

Found the below video on YouTube on how to hard reset AVN using a hidden menu, thought to share it as maybe helpful in future.

Does anyone know the method to play videos when handbrake is off? Youtube has some videos of this on previous gen Creta but not on 2020 version.

Did you get insurance from Shivam too (the one that is included in their on-road price)? I am checking with Kundan, Shivam and Kothari right now and none of them are budging on the Hyundai/dealer provided insurance but my guess is Kundan and Shivam may agree to at least match the quote from outside. Kothari said it is non-negotiable. 83k without KP and RTI is atrocious pricing!

Yes, I did. When I checked on direct insurance quotes, I found that the difference between dealer quote and others is not too significant to go through through hassles especially if you match the exact parameters. Most of the outside quotes show lower values by reducing the IDV.

Hello guys, my very first post on TBHP about my first car - Hyundai Creta SX 1.5 l MPi manual phantom black. I had done booking way back in August,2020 but huge demand and less supply meant I had to endure frustrating waiting period till I brought her home on 9th Jan, 21. Features, ride comfort and most important - looks, made me choose Creta. I've covered almost 1600 km so far and am absolutely in love. I will be making a ownership report once I cover enough distance and get to know my car better.

• Likes :
  -Looks, looks and looks. She makes head turns every time she's out on the roads ! She's got this very quirky design either you love it or hate it. I love it for sure.
  - Features on offer - Panoramic sunroof, ICE headunit, rear windows sunshades, puddle lamps, all LED lights and many more.
  - Perfect size for city car, more than enough boot space
  - Absolutely silent cabin, quality of materials used is good,
  - rear wheel disc brakes, ESP, Hill hold assist, blind spot is not large, all around visibility is good enough

• Dislikes
  - Trio Beam Headlights. When a vehicle comes from opposite side with high beam on, I'm totally blinded. Can't see a thing ! It's high beam is pointed very upwards as well, light throw falls almost on the top of trees. Fellow creta owners, I need your inputs on this query. How do I cope with this issue of headlights err candles.
  - overpriced for what it offers. Hyundai's weird feature distribution. Why can't they give all bells and whistles on this petrol manual variant is beyond me.
  - I've apprehension about safety as it is not yet crash tested.
  - long waiting period. Hyundai's lack of response to queries

Here's my Eva for your viewing pleasure
On delivery day. A thing of beauty, isn't she ?

Fellow Creta owners,
Did you notice that your creta (mine is a 2018 sx petrol AT) cabin noise has increased over time? I noticed this about my car, road noise, cabin noise or outside noise coming into the cabin seems to have been louder than when it was newer.
On that note, does sound proofing with floor damping mats, and other dampening add-ons help with this?
