Guys has anyone had any issues with the bearings found out my right side both bearings are damaged due to water....

Happens with age, plus rains and stupid service station people using high pressure water on every bit of the car also cause this.
I've replaced 3 bearings, currently only one of the factory fitted original ones survives in my car. Its not very complicated, though genuine bearings are expensive and poorer quality local/kabli ones are not recommended.

I don't agree with u guys, it's average is not bad. I m stock plugs, stock oil, haven't checked tire pressure yet if its 33/30. Have an aspire(1.3) at home n it gives 11.5. Swift is not bad on fuel, it depends how u drive n handle it. If u drive harsh any car in the world won't give u good fuel average.

Can you please tell as the Pros and Cons of both Swift and City (In short comparison between both).

[usman11]

Does this happen with window open/glass down? Or with window closed/glass down as well?

the sound produces just while moving the window glass upward and downward (while closing and opening of mirror). may be its a motor sound. u got my point???

I think your window glass might be improperly fitted or adjusted. Visit a suzuki dealership, its a quick 10-15minute job, they will just adjust and fit it properly. That should either fix it, otherwise aur koi issue hua toh woh bhi pata chal jayega.

@ Yawar and other swift owners/fans

Ma Sha ALLAH Your Swift looks great , color is very nice too (Yawar bhai)

Actually I am planning to get a New 0 meter car for daily family use , currently using Nissan Station wagon which is a very very nice car in its price tag but seats are so uncomfortable , poor leg room not spacious at all but trunk is Huuuge anyways , resale of these imported jdm s is pathetic so this time I am planning to buy a 0 meter car after 4 years !

Swift DLX manual transmission with Navigation is what I am planning to Buy in a month , But its insanely priced @ 1260/- + 50k for Navigation = 1310000/- plus registration which is 83k for swift at present and offcourse insurance which will be around 45k atleast ..

Do u think its a good idea to spend so much on a small car ? The car will be used daily for 80-100kms , with 4 ppl in car almost all the time ..
How is the suspension for our bumpy and bad roads ? is it comfortable for drive withing city only but during peak rush hours too ?
hows the manual transmission / gear lever ? soft or hard shifting ?
Road clearance ?
brakes ?
pick i know is awesome and i belv i can smoke a Rebron till 100km/hr Am I right ?
any weird sounds inside the car like other suzukis tak tak tuk tuk ?
My Dad will be driving it most of the time and he usually drive slow and never take RPM above 2.5 so what will be the Fuel avg with AC on all the time ?
Are You satisfied with Your Swift ?
I have some parking problems can only park 1 big sedan in my garage and a small hatch back cant park 2 sedans inside otherwise would have gone for Gli Corolla Eyes closed as it is the best car for family use , but dont want to park a corolla outside not even my Reborn civic so only thts y have to go for a hatch back ...

so tell my the positives and negatives both please

Yes, swift is the best option. But avoid the navigation, according to reviews here and from what I've heard it's not worth it.
As 4 people will be traveling in it, a cultus will be too uncomfortable.
It's a good city car, and for that occasional empty road its acceleration is phenomenonal. But it won't smoke a reborn unless the latter is on cng, is auto and is driven by a 16 yr old
The mileage is similar to all 1300cc cars. Around 11-12 with a/c with your father at the wheel, and around 10km/l (because of course u will want to floor it :p)
It's very comfortable and it doesn't hit speed breakers etc but it's clearance is slightly lower than corolla.
The manual transmission is awesome, u will get addicted to dropping a gear and zooming past every car.
I've had a swift dlx for the past three years and we haven't had any problems as yet. U can also check out my thread about my experience of the swift- by going on my profile.
And remember to get your car tuned by an official suzuki dealer.
And as u have a saloon this is the best option and has all the basic safety features such as ABS... So the brakes are awesome. A big plus point is immobiliser.
So go for it for sure. You will love it.
And unlike all previous hatchbacks available in Pakistan, u can take it on long drives without getting tired. So it can also work as a saloon. The boot isn't that small and can easily take a big suitcase and a carry bag.
Choose a light color if u don't have someone to clean your cars. Otherwise navy blue is awesome.
Best of luck, you won't regret your decision.

Swift may not be that spacious as compared to Vitz, you must visit the dealership and see in person but 4 people can easily be seated in it. Even 5.
Do NOT get the Navigation. It's NOT worth the amount you spend on it plus if you are a bit in audio and like to listen to good music the Navigation unit has a Pathetic audio output. Get the DLX version, get the fascia kit for the console and get a branded DVD player of either Pioneer, Kenwood or Alpine.

Its the best idea to spend that much on it because you won't find a better deal on a 1300cc than Suzuki Swift

How is the suspension for our bumpy and bad roads ? is it comfortable for drive withing city only but
during peak rush hours too ?

The suspension is a bit stiff and sports, so not much of a pleasure for the elderly but the Car is Silk Smooth on clear roads and driving it in traffic (which i only do) is a pleasure

hows the manual transmission / gear lever ? soft or hard shifting ?

The manual transmission's gear lever has a soft shift. It easily glides throughout

Road clearance ?

Till now I have driven it around with only me and with 5 people as well and till now it has not touched a bump. With more people you have to be careful but I guess that the same with all the cars now

brakes ?

11/10 .. Enough said

pick i know is awesome and i belv i can smoke a Rebron till 100km/hr Am I right ?

Pick is amazing. You can't compare a 1.3 to a 1.8. Swift is Swift and Reborn is Reborn.

any weird sounds inside the car like other suzukis tak tak tuk tuk ?

Trust me when you drive it you will forget that it was ever built by Suzuki Pakistan

My Dad will be driving it most of the time and he usually drive slow and never take RPM above 2.5 so what will be the Fuel avg with AC on all the time ?

I drive at the same range and i get 11.7+ easily given most of the driving is in traffic walay areas.

Are You satisfied with Your Swift ?

9.9/10 One has the 'keera' to ask for something better always Waiting for its newer model

One word. Best NEW car in this price range. Go for its eyes closed

I also want some good covers for my swift but confused which one to buy (leather or fabric) and from where to buy tariq road or what?

[yaqub]

i went to zamzama khi yday , and to my surprise thr is this shop call G.A Accersories.....a young chubby guy is the owner.!! he showed me swift navigation screen for 14000/- , updated map and every thing>>>!!! i think 14k is a good price

I am planning to get it, any1 who already have plz comments....

[CutePoison]

Here is my Fuel Average for the last year so that people asking about its average can see themselves. My car is rarely used and is driven with a heavy foot mostly. Summer Avg is low because I keep the AC ON whenever Im waiting for someone somewhere.

NOTE: In the 2nd reading it was actually filled twice, but I forgot to enter the reading once, thats why it shows 54 litres filled.

You are taking it too far dude
It has some drawbacks,
The suspension is too stiff and with nothing sporty in it.
Same goes for brakes, they are much better than many and the ABS works fine but nothing more.
The car is simply too unstable for doing something sporty. There is simply too much body roll. Try turning it form one way to other at 80+, the back end skids and slides for a couple of seconds.
Applying brakes at high speeds is the same. at 100+ car becomes unstable if you try to maneuver it while braking.
Its just a good family hatchback that does everything a family hatchback should do.

Vitz is much stable and its brakes are quite better but it has its own many problems.

Well every car has drawbacks.
I have driven it at high speed and made turn with people in it and I have the fair idea about its handling. Its pretty good for a hatchback

He asked for the car use by his father so I don't think anything related to the bold part applies

The underlined part is the answer in itself the member was looking for

I can't comment much on Vitz since I haven't tested one but it sure is a good car as well, only problem doesn't come 'brand new'

Seems like I am the only one with mileage below 12
