Skoda Kylaq: Chennai Heat Test, TPMS Alert & Fuel Efficiency

Patient driving yields about 13 kmpl, with a mix of city and highway driving, but it's 'oh so boring'

Some updates after driving the car for a bit more:

1. The AC holds up very well to Chennai heat. It has no problems cooling up the interiors within few minutes, even after the car was parked under the afternoon sun for few hours.

2. I reset the Head unit, and the audio drop issue with Apple Carplay did not recur.

3. The car behaved differently when fully loaded. Later I found out the tyre pressures for the fully loaded car were 41 and 48 for the front and rear, compared to 32 and 32 for a car with two passengers. A bit apprehensive about setting such high pressures, maybe I will try 38 for all wheels when car is fully loaded next.

4. Patient driving yields about 13 kmpl, with a mix of city and highway driving, but it's 'oh so boring'

5. Car got its first tyre puncture fixed today. It was a slow leak, and the Indirect TPMS flagged it.
