Not designed for Indian Roads !

-

 So, I am talking about a Transmission which is available in the Indian Market which is sold by Volkswagen. I am talking about the DSG transmission (Direct Shift Gearbox) or mostly known as DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission). This is a great piece of technology and really is great for Fast and smooth gear shifts. This transmission is mostly given in Seltos, Polo, Vento and mostly all Volkswagen owned car brands. But this is not designed for Indian roads because the sensors and the gearbox is itself very complex and fragile. Volkswagen invented this for the European roads where there are no bumps, puddles or any problem while driving the car and where you have highways. So, as I have done some research  about this gearbox and I have found out that even if a bit of water touches the electrical connection or some rock hits the transmission, you will have a 5 digit bill after going to service centre. You also need to change a lot of driving habits. So, At the end I would recommend that If you want to choose a car with an Automatic Transmission, you can choose a car with AMT, AT and CVT. I am recommending this because these transmission are well suited for Indian roads. 


To really make my point sound right, that mostly the problems with DCT arrive with Volkswagen

Ground Clearence !!

  Hey guys, Technology Freak here. so today i will talk about a major thing which you should see while buying a vehicle. so, you may ask that how to choose the perfect ground Clearence ?Well, It is a bit complicated, becuase you need to check a lot of parameters before choosing a car. So, what are the parameters ? The parameters are- i) the location in which you stay ii) what purpose are you going to use the car  iii)  What terrain you would expect the car to tackle So, after deciding them, now you can choose the ground clearence. So, for choosing a SUV, which should be capable of medium to full off-roading, you need 180-220 mm of Ground clearence. One of the car which is a perfect example for very high ground clearence is the Mahindra Thar. The Thar has wooping 226 mm of ground clearence ! It will be more than enough for normal use and also for hard off-roading.  Sedan:- As sedans are built for luxary and Comfort, Don't expect a lot of ground clearence from them. Fo...

Did Not expect this :(

  Hello, This is technology freak here. today I am going to discuss about a very known and hyped car before launch car. It is a Mahindra, not the 700 but the Thar. I see a lot of news about the Second gen thar engines are just breaking down of these relatively new engines and these are mostly cause by improper service or just bad engines made by the manufacturer. I know that most of the people will say that it is caused by "improper service" or " service not done in time". Yeah, and that is true in most of the cases, BUT , there can be only a very handful of these cases and if these cases are taken to the Service centre, they will report it as a untimely service, But the cases which are showing up have no sign of "delayed service" or any other problem. The engines are just dying at 30,000 KM. This can be cause by the bad manufacturing of the engines made by Mahindra. I really love Thar and hearing about such news is just heartbreaking for me. Mahindra is r...

TUV 300 T10 dual tone owner review

Hey, guys, technology freak here, today, I will be giving a review of mahindra TUV 300 which was bought on 2019, So you can say that this is a legit review, but the only thing is that the vehicle has very less kilometeres in the odometer (19000) kilometers. I had a Hyundai i10 for 10 years and it was also very less driven. Exactly 60,000 Km when we sold it. The model was "sportz". The time we had it, never broke down, not even a single time. So, coming to the review of TUV 300. The car is really great for the people who are willing to get a "7 seater" in paper but actualy a 6 seater but the 6th person is going to have a hard time sitting. Its Rear Wheel Drive. So handles medium off-roading very well. So, lets come to the pros and Cons of the car. Pros-  As being a diesel, you can instantly feel torque. The AC is really good, Also great at 42 degree Celcius. Also, The car has that Mahindra gene which lacks in some of the cars, like the KUV 100 The braking is also ver...
