BHPian arun_josie recently shared this with other enthusiasts: Scheduled Service (ODO @ 1,63,490 Kms) + Timing Belt Kit replacement – PPS/MPS Motors, Electronic City: Its been 11K Kms since the previous service was done. As mentioned earlier, I decided to get the service done every 10-11K Kms now. Complaints: I have not faced any new issues during the last 10K Kms. However, the rattling issue from the IRVM console which was fixed during the last service has returned again.

Due to my work schedule, I couldn’t be with the car during the service, so I instructed them and left the car with them. They updated me with the status during the service and I took the delivery once the service was done by evening. Post service, I could feel the performance difference. I don’t have anything to complain for now. Overall, they did a very good job.
