My Mahindra XUV700 completes 10,000 km: 2nd free service update

There is a new software update for cars having issues like the display going blank, speaker jarring, etc.

BHPian abirnale recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

And so here are 10K km service - second free service updates:

The car is ready for the next 10k km!

Highlights of this service:

  • Oil Change (Engine oil as well as differential oil)
  • Oil Filter
  • Cabin AC Filter (The Smart Filter, single-piece known as Carbon Filter)
  • General Inspection
  • Additional customer ask - Spare Tire TPMS enablement

The pictures from the service visit are below:

The brake pads from the front tires: different sensor designs than XUV5OO:

The disc looks so rusted, had to spray WD40 as well. My car does have a small brake noise at slow speed when coming to a standstill:

Engine oil used:

The spare tire now showing up on the MID, and the alerts also show up on Adrenox App:

The bill summary

Current tire condition: Note that the new spare has a different make and brand and tread pattern, keeping that as spare for now.

The WB report - tires rotated too.

The WA report, before and after

Important observations:

  • The Engine Oil used is semi-synthetic, 6 Ltrs, Mahindra Maximile branded.
  • The Differential Oil consumed is 1.8 Ltrs, again Maximile branded.
  • The brake pads from the front have shown a good amount of wear - may last another 3-4K km max, about 6mm thickness left.
  • The ASC did not do any WA/WB. So I had to do the tire rotation and WA/WB with my usual tire center. They noticed the changes in the rear wheels, removed those shady default weights, and added the stick types.
  • The TPMS Auto-learn works like charm if you rotate tires, the spare tire setup is a different gameplan. You need to enable Spare Tire through iSmart from the CoTek toolkit, force Manual TPMS learning through the diagnostic console on the OBD connected computer and then you are all set. This isn't something you can do on your own as we did in XUV5OO.
  • There is a new Software Update due for cars with issues related to display going blank, speaker jarring, etc. Since my car does not have any of these issues, I asked them to not touch the ICE software. I will do the update now only when the Apple CarPlay comes - eagerly waiting!
  • The overall service cost I had to pay was Rs. 5,339. Only consumables were charged. Post free services, they will add labour charges extra.

As usual, stellar job by Chrome Motors ASC and The Red Sparkle is ready for another long road trip coming weekend!
