Any known issues with Suzuki Alto AGS PKDM? also alto vs cultus

[saqibhassan95]

not smooth but its as good as manual

Can you please tell me what was invoice month of car you drove?
2020 model or 2019

CVT is very reliable transmission if the oil is changed timely and u use the correct oil. I am using wagonR CVT from last 4years and after 75k transmission response is the same as when imported at 4k.

It must be 2019, it had 20k+ on meter and was the official test drive car of suzuki central motors

so that jerky gear shifting is because of wrong gear oil in transmission, SAE 90 which is wrong grade, please test drive car in which 75w is poured, the correct grade, or car with march 2020 or later invoice

Oh ok, I had no idea about that. Thanks for the heads up

[saqibhassan95]

Actually paksuzuki dumb mechanics used to pour wrong grade and because of that many owners were upset of jerky gear shifting
After gear oil change, this issue settles and car shifts like manual

[F1]

Any jerks with AGS cultus too ??

[saqibhassan95]

Any jerks with AGS cultus too

With wrong gear oil, sae 90, both cars give heavy jerks, but with proper 75w, jerks are negligible, even it's hard to feel when it shifts from 1st to 2nd, just like manual car
(Based on real life experiences after gear oil change)

@saqibhassan95 so I got the alto
The transmission seems very jerky. The dealership is saying the transmission oil is 90W. How reliable is the 75w info and why is suzuki not talking about it

[punjabianz]

Check manual of the car. For AGS variant 75W is recommended.

Hi - bro regarding 75w. Have you feel any difference in shift?is Pak suzuki changing it free if cost if not how much did you pay? @Graffiti

[chinyoti]

The difference is zameen asmaan ka faraq.

I have October 2019 Alto. I recently got 75W oil in it. And its a alot better now. 1 to 2nd gear is Slightly felt, but the jerk isn't there. Just a change of gear as you feel in any old automatic transmission car.

Simply speaking 90W oil is around rs.450 a liter while 75W costs around rs.3000 a liter.

What is your feeling??? Either company filled gear oil 90w in automatic transmission. And now filling with 75w oil. You feel great in drive.

I have Alto AGS bought in Aug, 2020... Its now 11k driven out of which 9k driven on highways throughout Pakistan... First time i took it from Quetta to Islamabad, then to Gilgit-Babusar top-Hunza and then Back to Islamabad then from Islamabad to Peshawar and back to Islamabad... Then from Islamabad to Sialkot and then Kartarpur... Then from there to Lahore-Multan-Sukkur-Sibi and Back to Quetta and that trip was almost 6500km... Then 2nd time i took it from Quetta to Lahore then to Karachi just a few days ago... My experience has been tremendous... Its given 25-27 avg on long routes and 18-22 within City... I am driving it throughout on 0w20 since the day i got it brand new from showroom... This dinki is awesome albeit high priced

Nice experience. I drive it 200km daily on motorway. It gives great experience with moderate speed.

I have the pakistani alto vxl ags. I bought the car in 2019 and put it on careem. My driver has driven it about 60,000km and today the gear box is making very loud noises when I start the car. In idle and when I put the car in drive the sounds get worse. I took it to the mechanic he is saying that the clutch is the reason for the noise and he is saying it will cost 50,000 to fix the issue. I am hoping that there are no other issues and it gets fixed from what the mechanic is saying. Didn't expect the gear to get spoiled so soon on a brand new car. It was only driven by one driver the whole time and the driver is a very old driver and he is very experienced so it's not because he didn't drive the car properly. It's a very fragile car.

[ahmadusaf]

i think the driver doesn't knew how to drive ags variant. you can see ags video on youtube how the ags actuator works, the driver has to raise his/her foot from accelerator while speeding up to let the actuator change the gear, just like in manual transmission. AGS is a manual transmission basically with an electronic actuator fitted.

i have alto 2020 vxl modal. i am experiencing issue in its AGS ..It doesn't shifting its gear from 1 to 2 or 3... What to do..

[saqibhassan95]

Contact dealership asap, as ags is suzuki proprietary, only dealership can fix it
