To convert my Fiat Palio on CNG, I approached ECO DRIVE, Kharghar.

As soon as I confirmed quotation, The workshop Owner Mr. Santosh told me to get serviced my vehicle from Augustine at Turbhe. I handed over my car to Augustine who charged Rs. 20 K for thorough Servicing.

Later My car was converted on CNG entry level Kit. After conversion below given problems halted normal functioning of Car
1. Car Engine was getting OFF automatically
2. Engine was getting off frequently during movement in first gear
3. Screws used in fitting CNG Gas Tank were touching to some part near silencer

I complained the same to owner of Mr. Santosh Thakkar of Eco Drive, he picked & kept my car in his custody many time to sort the problem & complaints were unresolved with reasons given below
1. Engine getting off, show it to Augustine Workshop at Turbhe
2. For setting take your car to Fortune CNG Distributor at Vashi
3. Other wise replace Entry level kit by Sequential Kit at Rs. 20k extra

As I was sufferer for 2 Months, I ordered sequential Kit in hopes of better performance.

Hence sequential kit was fitted, Car was again sent to Augustine for modifications, car was delivered to me, and surprisingly I found that the Engine Temp was shooting too high immediately after starting it. I called Mr. Santosh, he denied for any alterations in Car and told me that its nothing to do with sequential Kit. I had verbal fight with him as It might have damaged Engine badly, again he picked my car from Panvel and sent it to Augustine, it was diagnosed by Augustine that Water Pump was faulty (Rs. 5K), after replacing pump also problem remained as it is. Finally Fortune the kit supplier came in & he suggested to by pass the tapped water connection of CNG regulator.

My Car was almost in 3 workshops for 3 months and today still Its engine is getting OFF automatically, Still Mr. Santosh tells me to go Fortune & Mr. Chetan of Fortune has done some settings which is not working altogether and I am following him for corrections after paying almost Rs. 75K to Eco Drive & Augustine.
