I had faced this in April last year before the recall, and again this February as the ASC didn't perform this work on my car. As a precaution, you can leave about a 10litre space while refilling.

I had remembered this from an earlier discussion and have never filled > 60-70% of capacity, and as you pointed out, never faced a problem.

I assume you are saying that the canister weight will tell whether fuel has seeped inside. And if it has, does it not evaporate on its own, or the charcoal etc has to be replaced?

That's right. Charcoal loses its vapour absorbing capacity once petrol seeps in. Apparently, it also becomes brittle and can break apart. The recall instruction from Mahindra suggests replacing canister under warranty if it weighs more than a threshold.

I took delivery of XUV700 AX7L AWD AT BS6 Phase 2 on Feb this year and I am also facing the same issue.
No drive score and mileage in Adrenox app.
In trip history, most of the time it doesn't recognises the halts and whole day is merged into a single trip, even if I take 5 hours of break in between, this affects trip duration and average speed in the app.

In terms of mileage on highways I am getting 14kmpl in MID and 13kmpl tank to tank with 2 people seated, is this normal?

Washed and waxed my car today

Can you elaborate a bit more and quote source of your news unless this is a troll post?

That's good. I'm getting an average of 12 to 12.5 in Kerala traffic conditions. Here the concept of being on the highway is vague.

Anybody using VIAIR inflator for their XUV700? XUV700 would need a total cable + hose length of around 4m to reach front left tyres. Not able to make a decision from the specifications online.

Hello Guys! We are considering XUV700 Petrol AT for Delhi. I am looking to upgrade from Tigor XZ+ CNG. I am looking for a Fun to drive car, we also looked at the Virtus Gt but overall the Package of Virtus feels less appealing than the XUV.
I wanted to know as to what I can Expect in terms of Fuel Efficiency from the XUV700. Your insights and opinions will be highly helpful

Thank you.

I am driving AX7L D MT and i can see FE on the MID and also on the Adrenox app. I am using an Iphone, so may be its the variant.

Hey all,
I recieved my XUV700 AX7L D AT (feb manufactured) in March. I've been using it for around 3 weeks now and completed 600 kms.

I hear a creaking sound when I partially apply brake at low speeds (3-5 kmph) or when I partially apply the brake in downhill to slow down.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know the reason for this?
I will be giving the car for first service within next two weeks. Planning to show it to the service engineer then.

I used to hear this sound in one of my previous cars when the ABS was first introduced.

12V sockets typically are protected with 10Amp fuse, so are suitable to supply power less than 120W. However, heavy duty inflators (SUV tyres need 30lpm to 40lpm inflators to inflate tyre within 3-4 mins) and can draw much more power when you reach pressures around 30 PSI. Often, these are rated for ~180W


Here is what I would do and already done: Get a good inflator with copper coiled motor, rated for 30LPM to 40 LPM, a couple of good crocodile clips (1.5 inch to 2 inch), a fuse holder with 20Amp fuse and a few mtrs of 1.5 sqmm wire (Red+Black). Extend the wire of the inflator with this, connect the fuse in series before the croc clip, and connect to the car battery. Keep the engine running when using inflator. Use proper colour code.

Agreed, this seems less inconvenient and less elegant than using the cigarette lighter socket, but this certainly works faster, reduces chances of car's internal fuse to be blown before the tyre inflates with reasonable pressure.

Also please avoid using higher amp fuse than rated in the car's fuse box. Fuse may stay intact when you draw more current than rated, however, the wires/circuit could blow up and cause fire.

Still, better would be to purchase a wireless inflator. Many variants are available in the market.

At present, I am using a Mi inflator. It is handy and weighs about 500gms, so easily portable.

This will definitely help you to reach the next air filling station or puncture shop in case of emergency.

This is the only tool, other than the default tools in the vehicle, that I carry during both my bike and car trips.

I am using the VIAIR bought from USA, chord does not reach all 4 tyres; I use an extension chord bought on Amazon.

Eco drive score and mileage is only for the MT variant and not AT. This isuue has been discussed several times in the past.

As far as mileage is concerned my L D AT AWD (july 22 delivered) is giving 13 KMPL within city and 15-16 KMPL on long highway drives on tankfull method.
