I am so happy to know that your issues got resolved by this video! The glass above is better than the window glass we need not worry about anything ☺️ New video is coming tomorrow - it includes all the questions that i was asked about Astor! Sabke saare issues ko discuss kar diya 😁☺️

You are right!

You are going to have a great time with this car its superb!! Sure i will make a video upon these things also! The will be published this week! My channel is bombarded with Astor videos and i am loving it 😊🤭🤭😄😄🤩🤩😍😍

Those videos are very informative indeed for all the new Astor owners. Thanks for the great initiative. Keet it up!

Thank you for appreciating 😄😄

congratulations

How is your experience with the car bro? I booked mine today

🤭🤭 Haan the sunroof is really awesome! Gloster mein bhi almost aisa hi hai Mere mein bhi khich khich ki awaaz aa rahi thi! Service center walo ne issue ko pakad kar resolve kar diya tha! I am also happy with the service provided

Sure brother will definitely reply to you! No doubt sharp is going to be more fun! The panaramic sunroof definitely changes the way our cabin looks and feel! These sunroofs are not new in the market ! Earlier they were an expensive technology now they have come down a little! 1. No the sunroof will not leak in any condition! 2. Sounds - interesting questions - water on a tin is louder than water falling on glass top! So i would say little less but the feel is awesome!! 3. the temperature does feel little extra but it's not something that can make you prevent the car from purchasing!! The heat from the cabin does goes away faster when we open the sunroof as the hot air is lighter and as soon as we open sunroof, it just goes away! 4. No temperature difference, it's the same as normal cars! 5. We personally own cars with sunroof from last 3-4 years Except cleaning of glass we do nothing! Just one precaution you have to take! Don't open sunroof is there are leaves, dust, branches of tress have fallen! I do understand your concern and have tried to respond you in the best possible manner! Feel free to reply!

​​@@prakashparadisee HI Prakash, thanks for prompt reply. I think my Q3 was not clear. let me ask it again. Q- Panoramic sunroof has rubber sealing inside so if we are driving or parked vehicle in direct sunlight during peak summer above 40+ D. Celsius will it create issue on sealing material? in one of the comment you mentioned now new Astor coming with thiker sunshade is that true? bcz all test drive cars are from old stock and they have thinner sunshade. also I am confused between manual and cvt. confused due to millage differences between manual and cvt.

No the temperature will not effect the rubber seal as they use high quality rubber, just for reference our door rubber seals works so well even after facing so much of heat and dust No the sunshades are same in all the sunroof irrespective of the year of manufacture! Hector has thicker! CVT is easy to drive and i personally feel it performs better than MT

The tensile strength of tempered glass is easy higher than the glass we get on windscreen and window glass When we are driving the car, the probability of stone hitting the windscreen is more and the probability of stone hitting the sunroof is very less! If in a situation you are driving on hills and a big stone comes from above- dear then no one can really save you! This is not an armoured vehicles. Also if you think that anytime can break the glass from above and come inside - why wouldn't be break window glass first? For protection the glass from small scratches you can put additional 3m polythene but i am not sure if that's required

Thanks Prakash! 🙂

Welcome brother! If there is anything...you can ask me! 😄😄

For a better peace of mind, get a good insurance with add-on. Because, these things are very uncertain. Neither you could plan your safety, nor could it be predicted.

I completely agree!

So glad to know that you found the video useful 😃🙂

Thank you Bhai 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😍😃

Thank you so much 🙂

Your welcome and i thank you for appreciating my efforts! It feels so nice! Yes tomorrow video will be very entertaining as I had received so many questions and i have replied to all 😃😃😄😄🤗🤗

@@prakashparadisee oh and one thing could make a video on your car like do a ownership review or a walk around review of the car and how is your experience in detail with the car

Sure i will try doing that! Waise thoda thoda karke sab bata hi deta hoon! Plan karta hoon...it will be fun 😊😊

thanks bhai... video banate waqt bahut thoughts aaten hain..accha hai bhi ki nahi! fir aapka comment padh kar lagata hai- sahi kar raha hoon!!

@@prakashparadisee nahi jada maat socho... bahut sahi ja rahey ho bhai...keep posting...i genuine like all videos by you

Thank you Bhai ☺️ Bahut khushi ho rahi hai ye baat jaankar! Pahale free time mein video banane ka sochta tha abhi time nikal kar video bana raha hoon 😄

@@prakashparadisee ha ab piche maat hato banate jao 😃

Sochta hoon 10-15 video aur banana padega mg Astor se related 🤣🤣🤣

There is a bit of heating but it's not too much! There are ways to avoid that!

Thank you ☺️

Thanks bhai!!

So glad to know you liked this video!!We don't have an option of installing 3m heat resistant film on the sunroof! Frankly speaking i want to make an in-depth video about the heat entering the car but for that i need good temperature which will happen only in around May June! As of now living in Lucknow (capital of Uttar Pradesh) i didn't feel a major difference! It's all opinionated difference that i have felt!

Thank you brother for appreciating! I am so happy you found it worth watching 😃☺️

So good to know that you found it useful 🙂🙂

Bhai abhi toh thand aa gayi hai! I can definitely do it! But summers mein better hoga na

Thanks for appreciation my efforts! No you don't need any kind of protection for the sunroof glass! In general the hot air inside the car can be removed from the car as soon as you open the sunroof! The heat gets away very fast! I live in North India too!

Thnx

Quick reply 1. No it doesn’t 2. No it doesn’t have rain sensing sunroof! We need to close it ourselves

@@prakashparadisee Thanks. At least do we have option to close sunroof thru Ismart mobile app?

Thank you Bhai for commenting 🤗🤗

No it won't start turning off! It should have come with rain sensing auto close function

Thanks for commenting. I have meet many videos about asta have a look in my channel. I will be making more videos in which I will show how to call from hello asta stay updated stay subscribed! Thanks once again for writing

Dash cam i will be making soon 😁😁 Puddle lamp get from Amazon ... It's not worth the money on MG store

Hi brother Thanks for writing It will remain as it is ! nothing will happen

I think button kharab ho gaya hai? Aisa koi setting to hai nai! Agar aapko pata chalta hai then please let us know too!!

So happy to hear that!

It does stop but doesn't black out!

Sure i will make a video upon that too 😃😃

🤭🤭🤭 didi aapki baat sahi hai! Mera plan accha nahi tha 🥺 Hume odomos laga kar manage karna hoga ! ☺️ Mere idea ka popat ban gaya 😭

There is an option of 3m film but the MG service centre would not be able to do the same.you will have to get it done from aftermarket

@@prakashparadisee Thank you so much for your swift response.

@@golapa007 your welcome!!

Generally speaking - i don't get a chance to drive around 11-4 pm as i am at work at that time! Secondly yes the lack of hard surface does result in more light passage! But the heat is not extraordinary! However there is a 3m film to reduce this heat passage! I will get it installed so that people get an idea !

I saw people in bhp have reported heating issues during the day due to thin mesh. It seem to be big issue in astor

@@MrPraveenBasavaraj exactly, I too noticed bad feedback about it in Teambhp

Hello! Yes i did recommend that it's better to have 17 inch as spare wheel! I am sorry i don't understand what's mag wheel! Can you explain that a bit??

@@prakashparadisee The inner rim of the tyre, which is designer in main tyres and normal in spare tyre

@@prakashparadisee I meant Alloy Wheels

Suuraj ki light se thoda interior cabin mein light jyada rehti hai but as such koi bahut Jayda issue nahi hai!

AC cooling is pretty strong ! I didn't felt it to be something such a major issue! Let's wait till June to experience it more! Ways to avoid it- heat resistant film 3m would be great choice! 🙂

Hi can you pls tell if heat is affecting the overall cooling in the car ?

@kanikagarg1532 no is doesn't! No owner is facing the issue

maybe thats good according to company else people may forget to close the glass

Thank you brother! I am glad you found it worth watching 😃

@@prakashparadisee yes but I had very doubt that the screen which is in Astor was very thin so the heat may come inside the cabin but I think it got cleared

I am elated to know that i was able to clear your doubt! The very reason of making the video is fulfilled 😃😃😃🤗🤗

So let me share this with you - No doubt the temperatures in a car having glass top is more than a vehicle having a sheet! But the benefit sunroof has is that - since the hot air stays high so as soon as you open the sunroof for 10-15 second the hot air is all out and then it takes 300 meters drive to bring back ac on cold air! I hope you got an answer Feel free to revert

@@prakashparadisee make sense. But the major question is around thin cloth vs a cardboard based internal cover. Does that make a difference ?

Grand vitara and toyota hyryder has thin translucent cloth inside, just like mg astor. Hence i thought to check.

The thin cloth is light blocking but it doesn't do what creta one does! However new cars are coming up with thin cloth like that! Not much too worry about!!

It's not a deal breaker additionally we have ways to reduce the head entering the vehicle

@@prakashparadisee Ok. Thanks for the reply.

@@prakashparadisee Hi. What are those ways to avoid heat coming to car ? Actually Im planning for Astor but little skeptical about heat.

You can get a heat resistant film installed!

@@prakashparadisee Ohk

Is it the Astor bot making that sound? Ask your co passenger to hold it once and check! If that's making the sound it will be replaced!! Also i didn't face this issue! My sound was coming from the sunroof

I will definitely reply to your question!! First of all thank you for appreciating my efforts!! Secondly the sunroof - The sunroof doesn't really have a big list of purpose! First thing is makes the car look very very premium Secondly it makes the cabin bright which in turn makes the cabin feel airy On a good rainfall day the view from inside look amazing and On hills you can enjoy by opening the sunroof. Honestly speaking i never open it in North India. But if you ask me if i had an option to buy a car without sunroof .. Would i do that - no i would have not opted for that! Sunroof makes the car look very nice!! And i like it! Does it gets too much heat? No even the car with normal roof is also getting hot these days! What matters is strong ac!

Hi Prakash thanks for the reply it definitely helps 😊 Would like to know your views on long term durability of the sunroof do u think in the long term say after 4-5 years there will be lot of maintenance(moving parts like motors etc), or issues like water leakage etc

If you keep the sunroof dirty it will create problems! Else it won't! We have car with sunroof from many years ! No problem faced till now!

Tan color? No bro i have Sangria red as my interior seat colour

Nope!! Simple glass

It will remain as you have left it! I wish it had auto close function 😞

@@prakashparadisee ok thanks. Btw, do u know about any car under 30L which has a auto close feature?

Honda BRV sunroof has this feature I am not sure if any car has this feature within 30 lakh! Will check and tell!!

Nah it feels fine! Nothing something too much to worry about

@@prakashparadisee ok ok .. thanks for the reply bro 🙏

Your welcome bro ☺️

i think you should watch this video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9hpmzkBhQzI.html

watch this video, this is the NCAP rating of ZS on which Astor is based. your all doubts will be clear. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rtNjCFixebY.html

Hi venkatesh! Till now i have not heard this issue with other owners! Would you like to explain what exactly happens in it?

Unfortunate it will remain open

sir dimension toh company wala bata payega

Hi bro! I live in North India too! The glass above is not a normal window glass! It's tempered glass and one of the quality that it has is to deflect heat of the sun approx 80% Though i am not expecting the temperature to be too high but If in case the heat of the sun troubles me I will install film on the sunroof! That would add the protection from the sun! I hope you found an answer! Feel free to reply

@@prakashparadisee Thanks dude. Your videos/comments are quite helpful. Keep up the good work.

Yes ek beep karti hai... but i wish apne aap lock bhi ho jati 😊

Light ka entrance no doubt jyada hai! Uss cloth se kam to hota hai but nothing which can satisfy a person sleeping on a hot day during afternoon in the car! There is one thing i have thought and that is to install a 3m film if i feel that heat or light is entering too much inside the car! The film are UV protected and same with the glasses - they are heat resistant! So dono karne k baad i am confident that things will improve if required during hot summers 🙂

@@prakashparadisee .. Did you already install the 3m film.. Did it really help?

No I didn't ! It gives marginal benefit!

The anti pinch blocks the functioning! You need to turn off your sunroof completely and restart the use ! After that you won't find a problem!

Nahi

To a certain level yes!

Brother it's okay! Not great but not bad either! Your questions has been discussed in the next video! I am compiling it and it will be shared tomorrow morning 😄😄

One more query bhai..Can we replace d speakers..? will it void Car warranty..?

Replacing speakers never void warranty! Yes bro you can!!

Panoramic sunroof is really beautiful!! It makes the car airy and feel bigger from inside! Astor is a good vehicle. Your decision of buying this is perfect! You will like the car!

Is there any other small car coming in near future having panoramic sun roof?

@@pradeepgupta9859 i tried searching for one! I believe these are the smallest option with panoramic sunroof!!

Haan! But windows mein nahi hai

Car insurance paper? Or registration papers?

@@prakashparadisee vehicle identification number.showing manufacturing month and year of the car. How to decode that number

I doubt

Nope bro

Ok

nai annoying nahi hoti! Heat par video jaldi hi aayegi!! :D

@@prakashparadisee .. Heat par video kab aayegi

Welcome bro 😁 so happy to see your comment! Thank you bro for supporting

@@prakashparadisee 🤩 🤩 you showed the tilting function of sunroof first time on you tube for ventilation .even on test drive Noone told me about that function

I am so happy to know this 😄😄 Thank you bro ! Share the video so that we can grow!

The greasing work will be done after every two years! If you use the sunroof a lot then once a years! Nothing more

Even i wished that they didn't buy it's ok. Started to live it 😀

Chat with me on instagram? Prakashtheindian

It will remain open unless you don't class it! An after market module can be installed for closing all the windows including sunroof!

It has inbuilt air purifier!!

It works! I have tried it 100%!

Mine is top model it costs aprrox 20.80

Haan bhai maine bola hai! Unhone kaha hai they will come home with the car! Kal nahi aaye then i will go to the service centre myself Sorry for the delay brother
