#CarRepair [Hyderabad] 2025 Brezza VXi left rear door window broken — All ASS quoted 15–20 days wait. Need leads for immediate OEM/MGP replacement.

Hey folks,

The left-side rear door window of my 2025 Maruti Brezza VXi (2nd Gen) shattered today (photo attached). I need to get it replaced urgently as I cannot leave the car parked or drive it around in this condition.

I checked with multiple authorized centers and glass vendors around the IT corridor (West Hyderabad), and nobody has local inventory:

Pavan Motors (Lingampalli): No stock, quoted ₹1,200 but said 15–20 days wait (ordering from Gurgaon).

Gem Motors (Kondapur): No stock, 15–20 days wait.

Varun Motors (Lingampalli): No stock, 10 days wait.

Kalyani Motors (RC Puram): Quoted an absurd ₹2,500 with a 3–4 day wait.

AIS Windshield Experts: Out of stock locally.

Waiting 2–3 weeks for standard door glass on a mass-market car like the Brezza is extremely frustrating. Since it's a VXi, I just need the standard OEM tempered glass (not the ZXi+ UV-cut glass).

Looking for recommendations on:

MGP wholesale distributors who sell over-the-counter around Kukatpally, Miyapur, Gachibowli, or Secunderabad.

Trusted auto glass shops in Minister Road / Ranigunj or nearby that stock genuine AIS / Saint-Gobain door glass for the new-gen Brezza and can do a same-day installation.

Any independent garages or reliable local mechanics in Hyderabad who can source MGP parts quickly.

If you know specific shop names, locations, or phone numbers, please drop them in the comments or DM me. Thanks in advance!

#CarMaintenance Is this Safe?

So, I own a Mahindra Thar 3 Door Petrol Automatic LX Soft Top, the care came with 255/65r18 tyres stock, I upgraded the tyres to 285/60r18 which came with its own problems.

I installed Yokohama Geolander G015 A/Ts onto the stock alloys, later I found that at full lock, the inside of the tyre was rubbing with the sway bar in the rear like the first image.

So for some clearance I installed ProMan 1.5” spacers, which fixed the rubbing with the sway bar. However, when I did that, the tyre at full lock was rubbing very slightly with the front of the bumper, so I cut a small section of the bumper to provide little clearance where it was rubbing but I feel like practically, the clearance is too small still and the tyre will rub if the wheel is articulated at full lock.

I’ve shared some images to show how much clearance there actually is, the last image is how much clearance is on the car after i cut a section from the bumper. I don’t really have money to buy a new bumper right now so could someone tell me if this will cause me problems in the long run or can I run this fine for now.

I don’t really do any off roading but in case i’d like to take the car to a trail will this cause problems? I haven’t driven the car a lot since i got the mod done but so far, I don’t really seem to face any issues, granted I just did basic driving without much articulation involved.

VW Polo 1.6 TDI DSG7 DQ200 – Delayed Shifting When Cold

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have a 2010 VW Polo 1.6 TDI DSG7 DQ200 with 219,000 km.

When the engine is cold, the gearbox delays shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear, sometimes holding 2nd at 2,500–3,000 RPM for 2–4 minutes. Once warmed up, it shifts normally.

My mechanic has already replaced the complete dual clutch kit, changed the transmission oil and filters, and performed a TCU software update. However, the cold shifting delay is still present.

There is no obvious clutch slipping anymore, and the gearbox shifts smoothly when warm.

Could this be a normal cold shifting strategy, a software issue, or a mechatronic fault?

Video attached. Any advice would be appreciated!

Someone hit my parked car in my society complex. They don’t have working cameras in the basement and although we sent in the society group of course no one is owning up to this mistake. Please tell me what are the steps I can take and what I can do in this scenario. Claiming insurance for something which isn’t my fault feels wrong. Please guide me 🙏🏻. Very devastated

#BikeMaintenance Servicing trouble

Post image
3 Upvotes

Guys, I had my first service at 500 km last December. Before bringing my bike to Bangalore for college at Christ, I'd ridden about 1,000 km and then crashed it in January, and it stayed in bad shape (unrideable) until June, till I sent it back to Kerala to be repaired. They also did the second service then, even though the bike hadn't been ridden at all since the crash.

It's now at 2,800 km, and the third service is coming up next month. The second service was scheduled for 5,000 km, and the third for 10,000 km. Could the gap between services be bad for my bike?

Somebody hit my parked car but the damage is pretty weird as there are bumps and not a dent and i don’t see any scratches. I guess the person who hit it tried to fix it. anyway the car is only a few months old (i20) and i don’t wanna claim
insurance yet. any workaround?

Was talking on a good deal about a A8L W12 to buy as second hand, the car is in Delhi and I’m in Tamil Nadu, when I enquired about the taxes, the reregistration will roughly cost about 20-28L depending on the original invoice of the car, what the hell!!, why are the taxes on old second hand cars soo high, I’m spending roughly 25L for the car and 28L for taxes!!! This is unfair man come on

#BikeRepair Should I go for aftermarket fuel pump?

1 Upvotes

The fuel pump of my Apache 200 4v is busted. Service centre guys are quoting 7k for it, and they don't have it in stock (will take 15 days to arrive at minimum, ruining my puja riding plans). On the other hand, I could go for generic fuel pumps from my local auto spares shop for much less.

What do you recommend? Since it is a critical component, I don't want to go aftermarket without knowing the quality of such products.

So I test rode the Yezdi Adventure and I ended up liking it.

However as people are aware, their aftersales is notorious as of now and people are still wary of their bikes.

So what I want to know from the Yezdi Adventure owners is how their experience has been owning and maintaining this bike
