It reached the 150 mark pretty smoothly and easy but soon I heard a beep. I reached 150 for the first time as I completed 10K mark on the same weekend only. Did the car gave over speeding alert beep or what? Had never heard that beep before or after. |

Yes, even I am facing this. However you would have noticed that the acceleration stops once RPM level increases. Though, should say that it is bit tough in slow moving traffic. Even I downshift to 1st gear. . |

It's definitely the top speed reaching warning beep. |

Guys we should definitely consider the warning sign as I ignored it and thought I was cruising at that same speed when my wife pointed out as to why I was going at 180. (She was not as gentle as the 3 chimes are) You will not realize when that additional 30kmph adds up as the road noise remains relatively same and as you are mainly focusing on the road and other drivers ahead If anyone is due for service, can you please check if we can have the set speed changed from 150 to a lower speed |

Had it been so, a beep at 120-130 would have made more sense as far as safety factor is concerned. |

I am not sure if it's a niggle or not but in slow moving traffic 2nd gear usage is very difficult as the vehicle accelerates automatically whenever rpm drops near 1000 unless you use half clutch which is not the right thing to do. |

While I don't promote high speeds but the vehicle was absolutely stable even at that speed I can trust xuv but not other drivers (and some animals) on the road I have already exprienced the potential risk / ESP first hand when I had to dodge a cow who came on the road while I was cruising at 120 No drama / no stunt, apart from my wife in front seat, no one even realised That t was just a lane change for the passengers in the rear |

Fellow Team XUV Owners, I had purchased my XUV AWD from Kochi TVS on 1st week of September I took my vehicle for first service now yesterday (ODO reads 5400 KMs) and have reported to them the below problems 1. Front LH Fog Lamp not working, the bulb was hanging loose from the holder, suspect broken clips, the service centre has offered me to replace the entire assembly under warranty 2. Squeaking Sound from bottom of centre console when travelling through rough or uneven roads, this is not audible when the vehicle on smooth surface 3. Squeaking / Rattling from Tail gate area, this is quite audible while taking corners and travelling through rough roads 4. Infotainment shuts downs and reboots this is not common, I have experienced this more than 4 times during this 3 months of my ownership 5. There is a squeaking sound from the LH wheel while taking corners 6. RH rear-view mirror vibrates when the vehicle is over 100 KMPH Any fellow XUV owners face similar issues or problems? Besides the above issues I am super happy with my decision to purchase this vehicle, I recently did a 1100 Kms round trip and my journey was purely a bliss |

Caution: Long post. First scary experience. It looked like Whiskers (our 15 month old W8 FWD doing 28K on the odo ) had a heart attack for some time on Friday. As we usually do during most weekends, we took off to our little place in Coorg at about 4 PM. The car was at its best, as usual. We stopped at an uncles house and I let the car idle for a minute and then switched off the engine. After about an hour, we got back in and when I turned the key, it made like what seemed like a half crank and then it completely blacked out. Nothing was working. No lights, no LEDs no nothing. It was like the battery was disconnected. I took out the key, (crossed my fingers) inserted it back and then turned the key. Still nothing. I tried this routine for at least 2 - 3 times. I took out the key, tried to lock and unlock the vehicle. Nothing. Waited for a while (2 to 3 minutes) trying to gather my wits. Then inserted the key back and it was like we just gave it CPR. The lights flickered back on and it was Diwali on the dashboard. Started the car, and again, it went a little more than half a crank. Turned off the vehicle, and cranked it again. It purrs back to life. Switched off, Switched on. It's now behaving like normally. |

Harish - I bought my XUV on Aug 30th from KTC kochi and have clocked 2600km now. I am also experiencing the squeaking sound while going through rough roads. My infotainment system rebooted twice but that was more than a month before. No issues after that. Apart from this no other niggles for my beast and I am enjoying every bit of driving it. |

By lights I mean ALL lights. cabin, console, etc. It was like the battery was disconnected. In this case, I didn't lock the car. I was inside! So no reason why I should see it while trying to start the car is there? |

Immobilizer LED glows even when your are inside the car, before you lock the car itself. This pic is taken after I pulled out the key and before getting out of the car, so similarly you would have noticed the same light. Attachment 1315301 |

I don't see this light. I removed the key, there are no lights that appear. Did you lock the car and then wait inside ;) I can't recreate this. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. You stopped the car and then removed the key and immediately, this symbol lights up? Anyone else able to do this? |

Once you pull out the key and step outside of the vehicle and lock it with the remote, you are supposed to see that light blinking every 2 secs. |
