Hyundai Accent CRDI : Engine Back Compression
I was experiencing starting problems with my baby (Hyundai Accent CRDI) which is now 3 years or 1,25,000 Km old and still running like a horse in a Polo game. I contacted the Hyundai fellows told me tha the vehicle has a engine back compression problem and got the Piston rings, sleeve, Pistons and almost all the oils (engine, break, gear, steering, coolant) and the filters (diesel, oil and air) needs to be replaced.
The overall service took 15 days and 70000/- bucks but now the car is like performing better than the new one. Now I need to add an Extra 50 Paisay while calculating the KMPL of the car.

Just got the news that Hyundai has just loss a case against a car owner in Delhi for selling him a faulty Hyundai Accent car. The Courts has ordered the company to replace the faulty car with a new one and give the owner, an additional compensation of Rs. 12,500/-. I can never imagine that the second largest car maker in India can do a shit like that. Well, is it the fault of the Hyundai Car dealer or the company itself?
One of my friends had recently visited Hyundai showroom in Gurgaon to buy a Hyundai Accent CRDI just 15
I was not just satisfied after writing my last post about the Ford Fiesta, I want to write more, so a comparison with by Sweety Hyundai Accent is here.
Ford Fiesta I agree is a better variant than the Ikon but not better than the Accent CRDI. The Vibration is the Accent CRDi is less than the Fiesta and Driving comfort is too better in the Accent. Both the vehicles has the approximately the same Fuel efficiency but I have heard from friends and relatives that Milage of Ford Fiesta is 18-19 kmpl which I am getting 16-17 Kmpl in the
Looks like I’m in love with the CRDi Technology. I have been to the Safdarjung Hyundai showroom in Gurgaon to buy a car, not for myself, but for a close relative. I was there for the Verna CRDi, which I don’t find too attractive. I saw the Sonata CRDi and the Tucson. Well, the cars are costly, but real value for money. Tucson is not that comfortable as compared to the Sonata. Both the car are technically sound, and the looks are no doubt the best in their segment. The last factor comes the a Baniya always think is the
Hyundai Accent: Review after 1,00,000 Kms
I have a Hyundai Accent CRDi, the Diesel variant which I bought about 3 years back from Udaipur, Rajasthan. The car is as good as new (the engine) even after running 1,00,000 kms. One of my very good friends bought the same car at the same time and even with the same color. The only reason we chose this car was because of its powerful CRDi engine 82 Bhp @ 4400 rpm which I think was not available in any other car of the same category. This was a new technology at that time, which
Well, the time is real bad and it’s gonna be worst if our government will not bring down the fuel prices even of large falls in the Crude oil prices. I read the newspaper today and saw the Skoda India is planning to launch the Fabia into the Indian market, technically – the only variant or my favorite Accent CRDi. I would definitely love to have this car, but the dilemma is, shall I go for a Skoda Fabia or any other CNG vehicle in the same segment.
Gurgaon will have CNG stations soon and most of my friends have CNG
Toyota Innova: Review by Khulla Panga
This is a personal review since I have tried all the other cars that we have listed below in this article. This article is not at all biased with any of the manufactures listed below.
Toyota Innova is really a nice car compared to other cars of the same segment, I am comparing it with
Chevrolet Tavera
TATA Safari
Mahindra Scorpio
This car is no doubt better than its competitors, first of all I don’t call it a SUV but it’s a Car, really. We own a 8 seater G4 model since we don’t find V model worth it in
I am looking for a drivers for my Tata Safari, Toyota Innova and Hyundai Accent but could not get one in the town.
If the driver is experienced….
Then his salary expectations are as high as 10000 bucks a month which includes accommodation and food. And you don’t know when he’ll leave if he finds a better offer.
If the driver is inexperienced….
Then you have your car at risk every time, whenever the car is with the driver and you are at home, your heart beat is on a higher side.
If you get a driver from Rajasthan….
He has no idea of the ways
Well, these guys are new in Gurgaon compare to the Orion Hyundai workshop but they have defiantly got a better name Orion. My experience was truly not good with these guys. I don’t know about the service section guys but the insurance claim and the body shop guys are really cunning or maybe inexperienced. Here’s the whole story.
My dad and driver on the way to Mathura had an accident with the tractor trolly and the car (Hyundai accent) was hit on the left side damaging 2 doors, bo-nut and tail light. Thankfully nobody was injured. Just because of a better
I got the opportunity to drive this car today while getting back from Delhi. Personally I never like American Cars (Ford, GM etc.) but still I did drive it coz I had no choice. This car I would say is a much better product than the ford IKON. The vehicle is comfortable and Engine has a better performance than Ford IKON. All the controls (as usual in American Cars) are just opposite to that of the other cars. Wipers at the right hand side and the light controls at the left hand. I had to go through the manual to
HSBC Bank in JMD Regent square Gurgaon: Fastest Service
Ha ha …. So this was a wooing experience for me. The HSBC Bank in the JMD Reagent Square on the Mehrauli - Gurgaon Road has the fastest service I have ever seen. This may be because of the lack of customers. I had received a self Cheque from a client for a real estate deal. There were actually 3 – 4 customers in the Bank, who were waiting for the bank personnel to attend them. The cash counter, bank manager, personal manager, relationship manager were free doing nothing. I counted the
