On service and workshops
I seemed to have received the slimmer propeller shaft as original fit in my May 2025 manufactured Jimny MT. However, after 25000 km on the odo, the shaft bearing has failed. Now the Jimny is awaiting the replacement propeller shaft at Nexa workshop in Gurugram. I have posted the details in the Jimny Review thread.…
2026-08-19 My family road trip to Uttarakhand from Mumbai on my Jimny was rudely disrupted by a breakdown yesterday. About 100 km from Gurgaon on NE4, I started to notice unusual noise from somewhere around the transfer case. Once I reached my hotel in Gurgaon in the evening, I called for the Maruti RSA. After a test drive and inspection t…
2026-08-17 We don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Jimny is a lifelong experience and a major investment while customer service experience is fleeting & temporary. I own a white Jimny Alpha AT and recently did a 3400 kms long drive from Mangalore to Diu and back in 5 days with wonderful memories. Its a fantastic car and I couldn't…
2026-05-10 I had a small brush against the roadside railing (in 2022) unfortunately but the weird point of impact lead to a replaced door, front fender, front bumper and headlight. Maruti (Pasco) body shop in Gurugram is apparently the biggest in India or Asia but they did a poor job of painting the car. Any service center doing such a poo…
2026-02-06 21,000 km update At times, while braking from around 120km/hr I felt a vibration on the steering wheel, so I reported it to Jyote Nexa. They agreed to replace the kingpins and the disc brake rotors under warranty. The old kingpins. New (left) vs old (right) kingpins. It's very tough to note the difference visually or by taking t…
2025-11-09 Greetings fellow bhpians and jimny owners(my first time posting here), I bought a Jimny AT Alpha few months ago. covering near 2000kms now. Have been going to some off road around Idukki and Kottayam in Kerala.I have 2 questions 1.Which is a good Suzuki sevice center around Muvattupha or Thodupuzha? I would like to service the J…

On buying and delivery
Hii fellow members, I'm still looking at used Jimnys on Maruti Truevalue for a good deal. Came up on a Jimny in Jalgoan, but it was sold before I could connect with sales team. There are quite a few good deals showing up on Maruti Truevalue website but few cars now have ODO over 50K, so I have second thoughts to buy a used Jimny…

On living with it
A Thar+ Jimny makes ZERO sense. So I would highly recommend to go ahead with this - be non sensical - and trust me you would not regret it for a day. Thar and Jimny have nothing in common other than 4 wheels, 4x4 and a ladder on frame. I hope you would have also realized this during your test drive. I have both (Thar 5 Door and…
2026-06-22 Excellent travelogue I must say! It is refreshing to see Jimny with its dimunitive proportions as the more competent alternative to the Thar, which in its own right has captured the imagination of an SUV crazy nation. What intrigued me is the replacement of your rear shock under insurance and not warranty. Tata Motors have chang…

These are figures Maruti Suzuki Jimny owners published themselves over roughly twenty years, normalised and checked for plausibility, alongside a priced parts catalogue. They are a guide to what others paid — not an audited price list, and not verified invoices. Each figure shows the number of owners behind it so you can weigh it yourself.
