varundbest Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Reason Why You Should "Never" Go To Bajaj Service Center! So i own a bajaj Pulsar 150, only 17000km used... My bike was working perfectly, the battery was down so i was using kick-start since 1 month and my bike used to start with 1 kick, always! Maybe it be 2 Degree Celsius or anything... Unfortunately i went to Bajaj Service Centre to get my bike serviced and even their guy (while checking) kicked and started my bike with 1 kick but when i received my bike, strangely d guy gave be started bike in neutral on a side stand and i drove away.. but when i stopped on red light, even 30 kicks couldnt start my bike!!!! I have gone to service center 3 times since then and even talked to d manager and showed this video ( ), but i have got no solution... Luckily my bike does start but with a lot of effort, even with electric start, i have to give acceleration along with it to make the bike start otherwise it wont start....The bill of the Service - http://img542.imageshack.us/img542/7896/30012013229.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And usually the bike would perform sluggish after a service. Now I go to a simple Enfield guy (pretty rare to find in Bangalore, mind you) and am pretty satisfied with the service.

yash2310 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 which car do you guys recommend in the 13-15 lakhs (ex-showroom) price range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Elantra CRDI SX - If you want class and feel awesome about yourself sitting inside. (Around 15.2 Ex Show) Cruze LTZ - If you want the best driving experince and power (around 15.2 Ex Show) XUV 500 W8 AWD - If you want SUV exp with all latest Gadegts thrown in (Around 14.6 Ex Show) ALl the above are bangalore prices, would probably be cheaper everywhere else.

The Wolfy among us Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) Is Jetta costlier than that? And what about the Laura? Oh, and the Yeti? Edited February 24, 2013 by Captain Fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Jetty is def exp, Laura is an outgoing model, the new Octavia looks class when it replaces it, yeti well I have never been a fan, but nice car def. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akhilgopal Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 which car do you guys recommend in the 13-15 lakhs (ex-showroom) price range? Agree with Athek. If SUV - XUV. If saloon - Cruze/Elantra. Not a big fan of Hyundai. Suggest you wait for new Octy. It will be worth the wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be worth the wait. Ya the new Octavia looks amazing, inspired a lot of Audi design touches, though seems it will come end of the year.
