I bought SX4 VXI VVT-Engine in Nov 2010 (French Eclair) from my Car and it was running smooth till about 1000-1300 Km run. After the first service, I started getting clutch tapping continuously when my foot is over the clutch. I went to the dealer and the dealer said that he will correct it as the parts are under warranty.
He replaced Clutch Plate and Pressure Plate free but I still get the vibrations in the Clutch(Too much for a new car). Now I go back to the dealer and tell him the problem and in turn Dealer tells me to change my driving style saying dont put yr leg on the clutch. This is utterly disappointing.
This is my first Sedan car. I moved from ALTO to SX4 and now I have this rattling/tapping to deal with every time I drive. I recommend everyone to stay away because the dealer showed me other SX4 car and asked me to try a test drive. That SX4 ZXI was around a year old almost 20, 000 kms driven and I felt the same rattling and tapping on the clutch. Guys I say this is the Mfg defect..stay away from this car.
