Its not only OD Rtech, even Topgear said that. They said that the 400km Swift did have rattles wheras a 40,000kms Palio was rock soild. Obviously Palio built quality is light years ahead of Maruti. The Getz is priced higher then the Swift and has less features but the built is way better, thats why marutis less pricing. These problems are not knew. Maruti power windows are involuntary. When they wish they work. My Esteem LHS power window worked on will and even after repeatedly taking it to work shop nothing happened. It goes up very slowly and needs a push to get it up. Even ACIs long term MPFI Esteem faced these problems. Infact nothing new that Swift is facing these problems. Drive a 2000 Baleno and a 2006 Brand New Baleno and you will feel the reduced price difference. Infact if any one will go to notice the OHC which was priced higher then the NHC has way better quality then the NHC. Sit in both and you can tell. Though the OHC has black interiors just feel them. Reducing price does vastly affect the quality of cars. Once a manufacturer sells a car at 40k more then now. When they reduce the price they have to compensate for their survival due to competition. The Customers want cheap stuff and hence you have to make a compromise. If any one would have noticed, any new Mercedes costs more then the previous one to try to keep the quality top notch. Though thats still a question in the MERCS. Quote:
some checkings on the manufacturer and the product quality

I doubt Maruti does that. Audi surely does that. It makes sure that the smell coming from the leather on the door doesnot coincide with the smell on the steering wheel. Even Skoda does all these checks. Every part is checked more then 100 times according to the ads in the paper.(They must be doing this since Audi and Skoda come under one parent company Volswagon) Quote:
brand new RS squeaking...and another 1.9 tdi

Havenot experienced it with RS but yes all TDi owners do complain of problem with the RHS door. It makes some noise and Skoda isnot able to solve it. Quote:
10 months old and 9000 kms done

Heck Swift is not even 10 months old in India and you own one 10 month old? Quote:
The car idles at about 3000 RPM when started in the morning. Takes about 3 mins to settle down at 900 RPM.

Maruti ECU control the RPM that way to heat it up faster. Quote:
Rear power windows work slower than they used to.

Revv the engine a bit and it will go up faster tried it loads of time with my Esteem.
Some one was selling a 86 800 for 1L only because of Suzuki parts. Thats one thing Maruti should consider. Make better quality products. We want Quality but they want only Quantity. Quote:
hey is the rattling problem only with new swifts or the problem there with only swift or anyt other maruti car also guys please enlighten me
|
Esteem, Baleno all have it, check it out but i didnot expect it from a Swift. Also another thing worth noticing on the Swifts is the wide and uneven panel gaps on the body just like the Indica.
I guess those who want good built should look at a Palio 1.6 which put does the Swift in quite a few parameters.
Can anyone write a letter to maruti and send this link so Maruti atleast realise it and do TOTAL REACALL |
