Showroom guys r saying bring to service center to check wiring.

Nearest service center is 30 kms away

This query is for those car owners who have exchanged or sold their old cars in NCR which are registered in a far-away state.

How smooth was the process? Did you face any issues because the car was registered in another state? Want to hear your first-hand experience.

I haven't made up my mind about a new car purchase. Due to this petrol mess I am evaluating options to either buy a new car by exchanging old car or buy a good used car not older than 5 yrs.

Listing out possible ways of selling which are known to me:

(i) Exchange on purchase of a new car

(ii) Sell to individual buyers

(iii) Sell to platforms like Spinny/Cars24

(iv) Sell to used car dealers

For context: I am currently driving a JH reg car in NCR which is into its 11th yr.

Car usage: My daily usage is hardly 5 kms. Occasional weekend drives 50-100 kms. Self-drive road trips (1000-1500kms) once in 5-6 months with avg 2-3 adults + 1 kid + luggage in Baleno car.

Currently I rely on petrol pumps preferably having digital tyre pressure displays for maintaining accurate tyre pressure.

After reading posts here I discovered that Treel TPMS is popular and also tyre inflators. Further, inflators come in multiple varieties - Chargeable battery storage or wire connected + ignition on. Then there are simple digital tyre gauges as well.

Now I am confused which product(s) should i buy?

1. Only TPMS - It should give alerts for pressure dip & then i can get it topped up at a pump or using own inflator. I am inclined towards Treel 3800/- variant w/o digital display as it will connect with mobile app.

2. Only Inflator - which can check pressure when required and also top up. Again which type - chargeable battery operated or ones which require ignition. It can help top up my cycles and 2w also. Inclined towards STARQ Inflate Pro as suggested by some.

3. Both - Are both actually needed?

4. Only digital pressure gauge?

Those who are experience using these devices pls guide me as i have an upcoming trip in Aug and would like to take decision before i start.

Background: I bought a V2 Lite in Mar-25 and its give a real-world range of 63kms on eco mode after full charge. There is no range/battery degradation so far in 15 months use. It contains a single battery with a capacity of 2.2 KWH. I charge it at home only as there are no commercial charging facilities here.

My use case: I live in a rural area and mostly use it for short daily trips within a 2-3 km radius- ropping kids to school/activity classes, shopping etc. In last 15 months I have covered 4500 Kms without any issues. Occasionally I ride to nearest town which is a round trip of 25-30 kms.

Concern:

• How much does the battery range degrade after 2–4 years? Since the V2 Lite is the base variant with a real-world range of around 63 km in Eco mode, I'm concerned that if the range gradually drops below 40–50 km, it could become inconvenient.
• Has anyone here replaced the battery? If yes, how much did it cost, and what was the process like?
• Can someone explain the battery warranty and the "70% battery health" assurance? I've seen this mentioned in a few posts, but I'm not sure what it actually means. Can someone please explain.

Overall I am very satisfied with the product. The only thing which has started to worry me is this future battery anxiety.

I am seeking suggestions to replace my existing 10 yr old medium-size check-in trolleys. These were bought offline and served well but are now showing signs wear and tear. These are from VIP & AT and material is softshell polyester fabric.

Sometime back I ordered a best seller Safari trolley from Amazon for about 2-2.5k in a sale but I found its quality inferior to what I am using currently. It's giving me thoughts that these online products might be inferior to what's sold offline but price difference seems high between online and offline.

Annual Usage about 7-8 trips: 5-6 self-driven car road trips (overnight, short and long trips) and 2-3 trips via trains & air.

Budget: Unsure as I dont have any major recent buying experience but can stretch upto 5k per trolley.

Material: Undecided, pls suggest.

Brands: Again undecided, whatever works for next 8-10 yrs and fits in budget. Nowadays I am seeing lots of marketing for these new age brands like Nasher miles, Mokobara. Not sure if they are any better than old established players like VIP, Safari, AT etc.

I did a basic search online and found that most medium sized trolley brands have almost similar products and mixed reviews. Ex- some have twin wheels & some dont, weight ranges from 2.8kg to 4kg, AT is giving 3 yrs Intl warranty, Provouge is having expandable facility + 5 yrs warranty, etc.

Has anyone noticed that in the CAS (Consolidated Account Statement) sent by NSDL for the month of Apr-26 & May-26, the column for Annualised Return(%) for mutual fund folios is omitted? It was appearing upto Mar-26 and was really useful in assessing performance of mutual fund holdings in a single page.

Hello trekkers.

So far I have been wearing my regular winter track suits in Himalayan treks (Sar pass/KGL etc). However since they are ageing, i am planning to replace them with proper trekking/hiking T-shirts and trousers. I found Decathlon T-shirts and trousers expensive at min starting range of 1k. Hence looking for suggestions for alternative brands with similar products at more economical price points for following:

Full sleeve trekking T-shirts (quick dry types) for wearing during the trek (before reaching next campsite)

Trekking trousers (already have a warm fleece lined trouser from Quechua and looking for a non-fleece lined trouser)

Light weight down jacket/Feather jacket

Also how different is a track suit from a trekking T-Shirt + trouser. Say if i compare a trek pant vs a track pant?
