My New Alto VXL AGS

[consigliori]

Reason dear. Asking because I will be going for first oil change at 1000km In Sha Allah

[IceCold]

I don't know why but I liked the noise the engine made

You and me both. It makes the car more alive than driving something soundless. I always preferred sound.

[haaziq]

Reason for changing it to 5w-30 ?

[consigliori]

Reason?

[mohsinirshad1]

Well the dealership closet to me was out of stock the last time so i opted for 5w and now continuing it.

[haaziq]

Any difference in engine sound & driving experience after 5w30 ?

[mohsinirshad1]

Not really

[kam.mjd]

Dude I will advise you to stick with the Suzuki staff advice. I will not decide on my own. I think in new car there is no need of any thicker oil. I also wanna know which is thicker, 0w20 or 5W30? Pls let me know.

[kam.mjd]

Yah indeed bro. I have also learnt now. I pick the car up slowly and push the gas with light foot... it gets in motion and achieves the steady acceleration with a slight noise. Then soon after it shifts in 2nd and then 3rd gear..and...then the engine noise gets noticeably lower than what it has in 1st gear. As far as the learning of this machine is concerned, yes I did after a week or two, I learnt so far that you should not paddle harshly for next gear shift, rather you should lift the foot from gas, and then press gently, it shifts the next gear then, immediately, without making extra noise and burning fuel.

Lastly, I have also learnt how to get the better mileage out of this adorable machine. What I do is, I take it in motion with light foot on gas paddle. Once I get in motion (on less crowded road, obviously), then I speed up with constant and smooth acceleration, it gives me much better fuel efficiency.

5W-30 is thicker.

Here is my 10 day review.

Pros:
- Small size so easy to maneuver
-Surprised by the AC performance
-Little things like rear folding seats, smooth hatch closing, step in door opening, smooth bt connectivity
-Leg space and seat cushions

Cons:
- My god I can't express my frustration with that loud engine and jerky shifts
- Extremely cheap build quality
- lack of reverse camera, there is support in head unit but when you install it, it voids your warranty. Its a planned gimmick.
- Poor hard tires and new car has wheel balancing issue , smh.
- manual is not manual, it won't let me drive in 2nd in traffic... Its downshifts to 1st when I slow down to 10.
- Steering starts trembling and vibrating at 120, weird .

One liner: 17 lakh ka Teen Daba.
If you want to drive only in Islamabad, this is a good car. If you have to drive on Motorway like I do, it sucks big time. Its not underpowered but loud to a extremely frustrating degree.
More coming soon.

Its loud but you will get used to it. Same for the AGS. Once you get the hold of it, you can minimize jerks. People who have ags have shared their experiences. You can check their threads.

[pwuser155493998522]

I have decided to give it 3 months, if I get use to it, fine, otherwise I am moving to either rebirth or aqua.

Get these looked at at a Suzuki workshop

• My god I can't express my frustration with that loud engine and jerky shifts

660cc is small so it'll be loud. AGS has jerky shifts, but with light foot, it changes to 2nd at 20kmh, 2rd at 30, 4th at 40 and 5th a little before 50. So at these speeds, let go of the accelerator for a second and the car will shift (it uses releasing accelerator as an indication to shift if you do it at the right speed). And these should be silent shifts as told by Suzuki mechanic and my own observation. The mechanic said it'll also reduce wear on the AGS unit. But yes, in lower gears, AGS feels like a manual.
