Why not upgrade them immediately? The newer your tyres the better resale value you'll get.

carrazy congrats on your outlander

wish mitsubishi comes out with a diesel very soon

[sknair]

Congratulations, hope you are enjoying the new beast!.

Unfortunate thing to report on my outy ( now abt 10,000 KM), I took her out on a camping trip to eastern side of Nilgiris last weekend and put "speed" petrol from the Nanjangund (outside Mysoor towards Bandipur road) BP petrol bunk. since that evening I felt a slight hesitation in acceleration and I ignored it since it was only a few times. This afternoon, the engine warning lights have come on, called SVR motors (Bangalore), lets see what the diagnostics is...

if its a fuel filter then its a 10K bummer...
will keep you posted.

Hi
The looks of the vehicle is nice. In white its much more beautiful. The petrol engine is a beg let down. But for that the quality of build and finish is awesome. You have mentioned the mileage as 7-8kmpl inside city. Thats pretty decent before the first service. Congratulations on your buy and all the best towards adding many more miles on it.
Cheers.

[AlokSriva]

Many congratulations carrazy on the OL! Great writeup and stunning pics!
Apologies for wishing you a bit late - had been out of action (read forum) for a bit.
Am glad that inputs I provided helped you in putting down (in whatever little manner) your money on this aweome vehicle. Have fun and drive safe

[siddheshb]

Oh my, she's such a beauty - I just LOVE the front grille. Great car, great pics... have a lot of fun with her in the days and years to come, carrazy! Cheers!

Similar issue happened with my Indica petrol when I was travelling from Pune to Chennai, I filled Petrol in a deserted bunk(MRPL bunk) and post that faced issues and while reaching Bangalore engine warning light started to glow. I called up all service center of TATA and everyone had the same recitation after me explaining the car situation "It should be due to adulterated petrol, Just fill up the tank once again and drive for another 50 KM, post that engine warning light should go off". As they said it went off in another 50 KM.

Well, you can also try the same rather going ahead with fuel filter change.

carrazy - Congrats on your new possession

Some thing similar happened, I filled from shell yesterday evening, after some time the warning light went off...
Anyway I took it to SVR, Shravan there hooked it up to the MUT and yes it showed a cylinder misfire event. Obviously suspicion was the adulterated fuel, he erased the code and re-done testing and then we went for a round of test drive and came back, everything normal. Prasad (GM) and Shravan at the SVR motors is very knowledgeable and above all you can hang around and ask all questions!

thanks
SK Nair.

I have also started noticing the Tyre noise especially on highways at 100+ speeds, what are the options available (brands) and would the upgrade to 225/235 section mess with driving dynamics or electronics?

Any pointers would be helpful...

Congrats for your new Outlander. Have you done any off-roading ????

[Sinner666]

Congratulations on your purchase. I can just imagine the joy of waking up every morning and have the feeling of an "EVO nosed" Off roader parked in your house. Look forward to spotting your ride on the roads if you decide to sport t-bhp colors.

[BulZire]

carrazy, Congrats on the buy. Car looks stunning in white colour and lovely pics with good review.
But why you had safari, scorpio and Innova in choice when you are intended to book one in 20 lakhs segment.
Please post some interior pics.

[carrazy]

First things first, PLEASE accept my apologies for a late reply. I have been quite busy with work & stuff. Anyways, thank you everyone for your wishes and comments. I'll try my best to update this thread regularly as we move on.
More pictures will be posted this weekend as I haven't yet got a chance to click more of them lately.

The car looks superb in White. I just flipped for the sound quality of that RF audio system which comes standard. I just hope a diesel comes soon. That will boost sales for sure.

Enjoy your new car and do update this thread regularly with your ownership experience. Drive safe

Your Mitsu looks awesome mate

Enjoy many more happy miles with the car.

Thank You All.

Thank you. It is the temporary number so I think its alright to display.

Yes I did get the extended warranty.

Anytime Baggy. Thanks.

No auto-dimming mirror on a 20+ lac SUV? Thats a bit cheapo mindset of Mitsu and as gaurav said, the Jet-Fighter grille do remains me of an Evo.
What is the 'INFO' button is for and more interior pics
Do update this thread regularly and congrats once again. I envy you!

Thanks. The info button is to cycle through the MID functions.

Thanks

Thanks. FE is still under calculation. I'll update you after the first service which is in this month itself.

Thanks GTO. Means a lot to me coming from a reviewer like yourself.
The decision regarding the tyres is still in the pipeline. I think I'll probably wait for some time before going for fatter ones.
