I had bought a SWIFT VXI imemditaley on launch from in June 2005 and the same has been serviced by CARS India - Ambattur regularly.

While minor issue remined and were attended to, a recurring issue is the major drop in mileage immediately after every service. The recent service where there was a specific ompalint to attend to the:
a) Mileage
b) Outside smells coming through the A/C Vent
c) Gear shift having suddenlt become hard.

The car came back and was sent back twice...as the problems remained (each visit costs me about 5 ltrs in Fuel itself as the service centre is very far).

Apart from the gear shift remaining hard, the smelss still coming in .. alarming is the mileage - I just filled 22 ltrs for 150 kms.. a mileage of just over 6 kms per ltr.

Can someone help..? in Getting Maruti to attend to this issue.. Its beginning to leave a bad tasts in the mouth.
