HaHa

I think everyone is busy rather than on holiday!


I havent done it ... anyway Logan has a body rust guarantee anyway I think

Hi,

You can go for the anti rust paint for the under body. The cost for the same will be in the range of Rs 4,500/- to 4,800/-. I am not sure of the outer body cost. If it is Teflon coat, then I would suggest it is not very helpful.

10250 is a Huge cost! I would suggest that you go for the same before monsoons. At the same time i think the underbody is covered under the anti rust warranty. Confirm with the helpline. Even i had got the same done about 2 years before because of the famed Mumbai Monsoons! Dont remember but the cost sure wasnt that high. Check with aftermarket stores. I guess the price is within 5K.

Logan comes with an underbody coating from the factory.
Body coating (teflon) is purely a matter of choice. I haven't got it done. It is done using a buffing application which anyway will wear off eventually.

If the bodys that you have are made (pressed) in Europe you will find they have a SUPER waxing inside all parts and Chassis

Another trick I learnt in the army is this ! rub under the car on all (Non rubber) parts Grease and then drive around in lots dusty roads untill it is covered in Dust and Grease (I would not do this) because of the mess but it would defo stop rusting

Thanks a lot for suggessions. I did it underbody with warranty for 1750/- and teflon for 1250/- with warranty.And i filled nitrogen 32 pounds .Is it correct or over inflated. when i drove car is little bit jumping in rough roads that means nitrogen is more . Pleas tell me how much i should retain in the tyre. I have yet not get the users manual and warranty card their is some shortage going on .If any one having computer copy pls send me so i can read it and manage the car.

You didn't get the Owner's Manual?? Push your dealer hard and write to M-R

Retain tire pressure at 29 PSI (all 4 wheels) that is what is recommended.

i would put 30 in the back if you have 29 front

push it up to 30 - 32 even 35, for fuel economy. Its safe, but a little bumpy, maybe.

Else 29/30 for a comfortable ride

For some reason, my front tires always lose pressure in a couple of days...It cud be faulty tires or load or heat or whatever, So i put 32 up front....

Check for nails.

i fill all 4 tyres with 30 and have found that combination to work well, of course my car is single occupancy 90% of the time.
