All cars' gear oil has to be changed as per its recommended interval. Usually first is at 10k and then every 40k... Consult ur user manual for correct intervals of ur car

[StoneCold316]

AOa all please

i have one seroius question.. an hour ago my alto fuel almost done and last bar was flickering..

i went to PSO Pump adjacent to Nursery pull .

PSO pump guy filled my tank with 29 litre fuel even in the end he said sahab full kar du how is this possible

i never filled this amount of fuel in my car ever. Max 25 or 26 litre main tank full ho jata tha..

i suprised is this possible?.

as specs shows Fuel Tank Capacity 27 L

[salman_w]

I have never gone this low on fuel but in general keep the same petrol station as its easy to identify an anomaly. my last fill was 7800 on two bars left.

[StoneCold316]

actually i was in hurry last night i forgot to fill the tank..

when reached office ..and went to lunch then last bar start blinking then i filled the tank..

ideally i should not have that low but it happened

couple of times sadly

first time in my life in alto i filled the 29 litre fule in alto

an year ago .. in my old car same thing happent in the different scenario

but now i m sure that petrol pump people are thieves .

i would like to meet their manager when coming back to home i will show the proof ..

technically its not possible i guess.
may be i m wrong

I also think that there is some issue in the gauge. What i do is that i ask them to auto fill and leave the filler at the last point i.e. three clicks. I have stopped filling tank to the brim manually and fill from auto click to auto click. I make sure they completely release the lever on auto.
Also when i have an amount in mind, I ask them to fill 50 rs more. e.g 3050 or even 3055 etc these amounts have a lower chance to be pre programmed into the filler for any rigging. Unfortunately such a mundane task has been made finicky due to corrupt and unhonest behavior of common people and businessmen.

[StoneCold316]

i always make sure the zero on pump meter and i make sure they are not clicking over and over the lever...

.. still i don think its gauge issue bcz. 1 and 3 months (alto delivered last year june) it never happened and

not so much but some time

"main ne last cell flicker kar raha hota tha.... then main fuel fill karwa hy ...and i max i got 26.5 "

but today all record broken

27L tank filled with 29 L lol

still there was a room in the tank like i guess 100 rs ka aur fill ho jata or may be 200rs ka

kher.. ..

today i m done with this pump " kuch pumps i have choosen wahi se barwaoo ga i always get good mileage from there"

kher

[salman_w]

Yes i was talking about faulty filling station metter being rigged to show more than the amount/qty filled.

[StoneCold316]

true! ...100% right

[iplaywithidiots]

lol if u did not post the picture ..i could not believe it

Clearly the tank Capacity is 27L how could they pour 29.03L in 27L

dame...

[zeeshan-hdr]

I’m not defending petrol pumps they are mostly corrupt and use latest technologies even remote controlled meter tampering. As you mentioned the quantity of fuel tank is 27 L but there is fuel pipe connected from tank to filler neck that might hold 1-2 litre so it may be possible to fill more petrol than the fuel capacity of tank

[usamaiftikhar1]

I was in the same situation once that my last bar of fuel gauge was blinking. Got it filled but it only filled up to like 25.7 litres. I think the pump has faulty guages. Also, always use auto fill as that way it doesn't overfill.

[nnabeel]

Go to the fuel station, take the suzuki manual with you and show them the capacity and the fuel filled.
get a refund

[abbasqamar3166]

Still I don't think so kneck filler can hold 2.02 litre petrol hmm

[StoneCold316]

prob was.. the fuel was not top up like .. fuel was not fill till the cap like u can see with ur eyes..there was a room for.. more

that petrol pump guy says " bahi full tu karwa loo "

i went to Manager but he was not admitting this... he says "bahi reserve main gaya hy fuel 2 litre"..

well things happents

[salman_w]

I don't think it's a battle worth fighting i.e he will waste more fuel and there is no guarantee he will get a refund. This guys should not only be refunding but paying damages as well but Alas that's not going to happen over a few liters of fuel. All that can be done is that people are made aware of the location and name of the pump so they can stay vigilant if they go there or avoid such businesses.

[abid110]

i never go for tank full. i have habit from day1 to fill in only 20L once 3 dots remain.

[StoneCold316]

got it.. well i fill up the tank when .. low fuel indication turn on .. initially i was checking the fuel avg then it became my hobbit ..

sigh..
