Issue with gears

2013 Swift On Friday I was driving and stalled (not common) it seemed something had changed and for the rest of the drive home it felt like I was stuck in 3rd. This was confirmed when I tried to reverse and pulled forward.

A mechanic fitted this metal replacement bracket shown on the gear linkage. This seemed to provide some repair and the 1st and 2nd gears felt very close to 3rd and 4th on the shifter. It now feels like the same issue has returned, I have opened up where the shifter is and seen the bushing is completely worn and will order a replacement for that. Can anyone suggest if if there is anything else that could be the problem?

I was able to drive home from work today but pulling forward is slow and the clutch feels incredibly high. Once I am up to speed driving is normal

TIA

2024 Suzuki Swift Hybrid (Australia) – Can’t find build or compliance plate anywhere. Can another owner check theirs?

Hi everyone,

I’m a professional vehicle inspector in Australia and have inspected well over 10,000 vehicles. I’ve come across something I’ve never seen before.

I’m inspecting a 2024 Suzuki Swift Hybrid (Australian delivered) that appears completely original:

No evidence of accident damage.

Factory paint throughout.

Original panels and fasteners.

VIN matches the registration and windscreen.

However, I cannot find the build plate or ADR compliance plate/label anywhere.

I’ve checked all the usual locations:

Driver’s door jamb/B-pillar.

Passenger door jamb.

Under the bonnet.

Firewall.

Strut towers.

Radiator support.

Tailgate/hatch area.

Other obvious locations.

I contacted Suzuki Australia and they advised the vehicle should have one. They suggested it’s possible it was removed during repairs and not replaced, although I can’t find any signs the vehicle has been repaired.

Could anyone with a 2024 Australian Suzuki Swift Hybrid please tell me:

Exactly where your build/compliance plate or ADR label is located?

If possible, could you upload a photo of its location (you can cover the VIN)?

I’d really appreciate any help as I’m purchasing this vehicle on behalf of a client and want to be absolutely certain everything is legitimate.

La mia prima auto

Ho preso la mia nuova bambina: Suzuki Swift 1.3 benzina.

Avevo un po’ paura perché l’unica auto di peso simile che avevo provato era una Panda 1.2 2019, e quella mi aveva fatto abbastanza cagare. A 110 sembrava già di volare, dopo i 130 diventava una roba instabile, in curva avevo sempre la sensazione che si mettesse su due ruote, e di motore zero totale.

Quindi speravo che fosse un po meglio, ma sinceramente non mi aspettavo un distacco così netto dalla panda. Invece è un altro mondo.

La Swift è leggerissima, ma non dà quella sensazione da auto che vola via superati i 100 orari. In curva, anche con assetto completamente stock, ha un rollio contenuto, resta molto più seduta di quanto mi aspettassi e soprattutto non si impenna come faceva la Panda. È proprio un altro mondo.

La cosa che mi ha sconvolto di più è la stabilità: ai 170 sembra piantata più o meno come la station wagon di mia madre da 1600 kg. Mi aspettavo una roba nervosa, invece niente, volante fermo, macchina composta, zero sensazione del tipo aereo in decollo.

E poi il motore. Sotto è tranquillo, fa il suo, niente di speciale. Ma sopra i 4000 giri cambia proprio faccia. Non sto dicendo che diventi un missile, però tira fuori un caratterino assurdo, sale bene, urla il giusto e ti viene voglia di tenerla alta come un piccolo VTEC dei poveri. È una di quelle macchine che sulla carta leggi “1.3 92 cv” e pensi ok, macchina da città, ma il come li eroga mi fa sorridere ogni volta.

Insomma, sono felicissimo. È leggera, semplice, consuma gran poco, divertentissima e molto più stabile di quanto pensassi.

Mi sa che questa me la godo per un bel po'.

Edit: l ho presa con 100k km, e usata in città da una signora che la usava solo per andare al supermercato, non ha mai visto oltre i 4k giri suppongo.

Weird sound (?) coming from engine

Is anybody able to identify what the weird ticking sound is? Is it coming from the belt?

Possible refound? 😕

Has anybody got some issues with your unit? Ive bought mine somewhere around a year ago, I’ve put 36,000km on it and i’ve had 2 pieces changed due to warranty related issues, just today one of the front day light LED stoped working for no reason, I’m seriously considering asking for a refund who knows what other issues might come up in the future, not to mention a couple of things about the “normal” functionality of the car im not comfortable with

2012 Swift gears not holding and no reversing

This is what I can see when I get into the gear box - what do I need to be buying? Is this an expensive fix or can I do it myself?
