The problem is you bought a Tata dude. I know. I used to drive a petrol Indigo. You have a Tata car. Get used to disappointment.

I'm sure akshaybadia knows he has bought a Tata car!

akshaybadia - try the Tata-indigo-users Yahoogroup. You may get some advice there on specific checks to be done. I have a petrol Indica myself so sorry I cannot help much here.

Careful dude...do you mean to say that thousands of people who have bought tatas are fools?

Anyways...akshay welcome to teambhp.
How old is your indigo? how many kilometers on the odo? Generally diesel indigos are good till 140-150kmph. But yeah after 110-120kmph...they do seem to run out of breath. Its normal that they will pull lesser after 110kmph.

Are you sure about the quality of fuel? When i fill bad quality diesel...performance seems to become blunted...make sure you use good quality diesel...xtra mile superdiesel and turbojet do make a difference. Also check your fuel filter.

akshay,

i think you should test drive another indigo and see if it faces the same problem.
it does take time for the turbo to kick in.so mabbe its the lag that you are feeling .
