        There is no conclusive answer to this question. The manuals of many CRDI cars advise against the use of any additives. At the same time, there are so many people who have used such products for years, and swear by their benefits. What I will say is that there is no diet like fresh, unadulterated diesel for your car.

        thanks sir… there another thing which i just noticed this morning in car when i pop opened the bonnet, its that the engine coolant of the car is showing below min level. is it fine to be below minimum level and it would increase as the car heats up while being driven?

        The coolant should be between max and min, not below min. And this is on a cold engine. Of course, it will expand as the engine heats up, but right now, your car can do with a top-up.

        Yes, 5w30 indicates that it is synthetic oil. It is a good quality oil which needs to be replaced after 10000 kms. However it is better to check the viscosity of the oil after 7000 kms. we have been using it in our i10 magna.

        The new bumper and headlamps of the Classic can be fitted on the old Ford Fiesta. Direct fit.

        No idea about the exact prices, best to check with a dealer. But as an estimate, I’d say Rs. 4000 for the bumper (plus Rs. 2,500 for painting) and about Rs. 3,500 each for headlights. So about Rs. 15,000 for the entire conversion including labour.

        Worldtech is what you would call a “budget” brand. It is made it Thailand and is quite popular now for reverse cameras and parking sensors. How much is this rear-view mirror display priced at? It comes with a warranty of a year I think. However, if you want better quality with your infotainment system – upgrade it to a better brand.

    guys!!! can u tell me if installing spoiler on ford fiesta classic will affect my mileage? or stability?

        Neither. A spoiler hardly weighs a couple of kgs, which is inconsequential on a 1200kg car. The aerodynamic aspect will come into play only at speeds above 150kmph, which is more or less the top speed of a diesel Classic.

        On regular road-going cars things like spoilers are entirely cosmetic and won’t affect mileage much (as long as you have a small one and not one of those giant aircraft wing size ones!) Small boot spoilers make the car look sportier.

        Vaibhav like Roshun and Shreyans have pointed out adding a spoiler will have no impact on your mileage. It is just a cosmetic add on for production cars to make them look sporty.

        Regular shocks for the rear cost about Rs. 900 a piece. But for the front its a strut assembly that is more expensive, about Rs. 2000 each for most cars that use a McPherson struts. At 80,000 would be a good time do a preventive replacement, but in case you’re not facing any suspension issues, let it be.

        the reason i posted this is …i noticed recently that my car gets scraped at low speed breakers when 5 people are in car with no luggage. and also many time i hear some clunking noise from rear shocks when going over speed breaks or bumps.

        Brands like Rockford and Infinity are supposed to be better. Alpine makes some excellent speakers as well. The key to excellent sound is in making sure what you buy is genuine and in a thoroughly professional installation.
