Letsbuy is most fraud and cheating online store
Letsbuy

Letsbuy is a low quality site when compared to Amazon and Flipkart. I use mostly these two sites online. I have used Letsbuy to redeem my payback point. The order is 5 days old, but no progress so far. I got delivery from Amazon (originated form US) always in3 to 4 days max.

Figo 1.4 tdci - 40,000 KM update - wow.. 23 kmpl
Ford Figo

I own a Figo Disel for 6 months. To get this level of mileage, you need to drive 80 KM/Hr most of the time and the a/c usage should be less. I got highest of 25/kmpl on the Deepavali day, between my drive from Chennai to Madurai. It was raining most of the time. So i was driving 70-80 most of the ti...me and the a/c usage is less. In my normal highway drives, i used keep between 90 - 110 and i am getting 19 - 20 kmpl.Read More

Ford Figo Petrol giving me 7.5kmpl
Ford Figo

Figo Petrol is known for it's poor mileage and suggested only for those who do lower daily/monthly usage and still needs a solidly built VFM car. However, 7.5 kmpl is very low. Any of the below could be the reason. Please check it out: - Fuel station (this is the common issue, please change t...o some COCO or Shell if any available in our place and check it out) - Driving style (if you are mostly in 2nd gear, you will get very low. Maximinzing use of 3rd and if possible 4th gear will improve) - Any fauly party (If the above two options are worked out, put pressure to the dealer / service station and check) Read More

A Benchmark in Customer Care... and Eye Care
Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital - Cathedral Road - Chennai

Mee to had a bad experience with Agarwal where they suggested series of check up and surgery for mother three years back. Then we went to Aravind Madurai and they said it is a very early stage of problem and suggested some drops and my mom is ok for the last three years without surgery. The sta...ff approach itself made me feel that they just want to do this like any other business to make money, nothing else. Unfortunately the healt care industry and eduction which are supposed to be doing 'service' become just like any other money making business.Read More

@leoramc: 19-20 kmpl at city is very impressive. Which city you are in and what kind of traffice you face daily? I am getting 15kmpl for the city drive so far. Done my first service and need to check if any change after that.

@ SUZUKISAI, mine is 14'' alloys. Not sure if you can use alloys from Swift in Figo (each manufacturer has specific recommendation for the possibile alloys). Please check the link below, there are discussions related to alloy and tyre option for figo: _http://www. team-bhp . com/ forum/tyr...e-alloy-wheel-section/77852-alloy-wheels-tyre-upsize-ford-figo.html (remove spaces from the link)Read More

Figo Diesel - VFM city car
Ford Figo

The engine is tuned more towards city driving with less/no turbo lag. But in high ways, after 100, you will see the engine is more stressed. The noise level inside the cabin is relatively high (when compared to the other Diesel hatch i have driven). Bottom line: If you are looking for a go...od diesel hatch, which is VFM and also if you drive more in City, then Figo will be a good hatch. The space inside and boot is good compared to many other cars in the segment. The other car comes close to this is Ritz, but i don't like the look of the car. If you can spend some additional money and ok with lesser space in the back seat and boot, then Swift will a good option. Read More

Ford Figo Problems
Ford Figo

Hi, i have bought Ford figo titanium 1.4 TDCi and done 4000 KMs so far. This is my third car in India. Find below my comments on your issues to check if that helps. Ground Clearance: This is problem with this car and need to be careful on speed bumps and bad roads. Slow down as much as possible a...nd always maintain correct pressure in tyres. I have upgsized my tyres to 185/65 which increases GC by 7 mm approximately. This helps in reduced number of bottom scrapping. However, tyre change voids the warranty, so unless you are ready to take some risk, you should not do this. I am getting 15 kmpl in city and got 20 kmpl in the high ways. In high way i drove between 90 to 110 KM per hour. If you limit your speed to 80 to 90, you will get more mileage. Check for tips on good driving practices for getting better mileage in the web. Ford acknowledged the head light problem. Check with your dealer next time for the options available. You can upgrade to better bulbs outside, but that will void the electrical warranty. Most of the dealers teams don't have good knowledge on any cars. But we have the power of internet which gives much better knowledge. For Maruthi, you need to service every 5K KMs, but for figo it is once in every 10K KM. Though i have done only one service so far, feed back from other users says there is not much difference in terms of maintenance cost. But before going to service, do the required research in the net and prepare yourself. Otherwise, any dealer will take you for a ride. Read More

It is always better to buy mobile phones directly from the brand dealers. It is sad to hear that you have problem with such a great phone. Try to contact Nokia India directly (main office in Chennai or somewhere in India) and they may able to help
