My XUV700 D AT clocks 25000 kms: Fuel efficiency & other updates

ince the last service, there seems to be some hesitation when accelerating and a drop in FE (on same routes) is observed as well.

BHPian A.G. recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Stats after 50 Fill-ups, trip details and a software glitch:

Completed 50 fills as per Fuelio and thought of sharing some observations:

  • Covered slightly over 25K Kms in just a shade under 8 months.
  • Max fill of 55.7 Liters had the DTE down to just 3 Kms – the lack of functional Fuel stations on my first run on the new Expressways took it down to the wire with heart in mouth.
  • Since the last service, there seems to be some hesitation when accelerating and a drop in FE (on same routes) is observed as well – could be nothing more than the effect of Summers and AC usage but planning to revert to the factory original air filter to verify.

This time changed the shampoo to a reputed Wash and Wax and the results were amazing:

On this trip, the navigation presented a software glitch when both the screens were showing contradicting turn.

To go left or to go right:

The more I noticed, more such instances became evident with there being a mismatch between Google Maps on the center screen and Turn indication on the Instrument screen.
