Dear Experts,

Need a help. I have seen the coolant dry up very quickly twice in my XUV500 W10 At (2017 model). Checked everywhere but couldn't find any leakage as well. Neither MASS guys could find anything. Any idea what could be the reason for this?

Also service advisor suggested to change suspensions in my next service due at 90k KMS. any suggestions on what to keep in mind and do?

One possibility is a leak from the heater core inside the dashboard. The coolant line goes through a valve that controls the hot air circulation of HVAC. The floor carpet would soak up the coolant and possibly drain out. Do you sense any foul smell inside the cabin?

Thanks Bejoy. No there is no foul smell nor any wetness in the floor carpet.

If you are not using the heater function get the coolant pipe to the heater coil blocked, can be done from the engine bay (no need to dismantle the dashboard). Coolant leaks slowly without any trace some times. A good AC mechanic would do the job in 15 mins.

I had my car's interiors cleaned, and after the cleaning, I found this piece left on the seat. Does anyone know where this part might be from? This is XUV500 W11 AWD automatic model

This is the cover for the cabin air filter, located near the clutch pedal.

Refer this video for fixing it.

How do I reset the service reminder in my 2017 XUV500 without going to the service center. It is a W6. Service was done in a FNG, and car is running as good as ever . Have seen some youtube videos where the trip button needs to be pressed and ignition has to be turned on. But that method does not seem to be working.

Well, I was able to do it this morning. Different posts on different forums and youtube videos had variations of the same method. I had been trying each method since the past few days.

Below are the steps that succeeded for me:
1. Ignition off, key out.
2. Press the trip button on the right side of the odo console and keep it pressed.
3. With the button pressed, insert the key and turn twice. (do not switch on engine)
4. Leave the trip button in exactly 3 seconds.

The service reminder will go away. Verify it in the 'Info' section of the entertainment unit.

Hi,

I have a 2018 XUV 500 AT W7, 40000 kms. Went to the dealership and following was recommended by the advisor:
1. Ac evaparator cleaning 1900++
2. Engine compartment cleaning 900 ++
3. Coolant replacement - 2600++
4. Silencer cleaning - 1300 ++

This is at Mahindra Service Centre.

Is it worth getting these or any of these done? My annual drive is max 10k km.

Thanks in advance.
