I just purchased an old sierra coz I was mad about it. Model 1993 and 135000 kms done!


Till now, the cost reaches 3,25,000 and I think that I need around 35,000 more to make it as per my choice! Now it has all new sporty red paint, new tyres and imported leather interiors in camel color! Little modified grill and bumpers. I also tried to make the engine smoother by giving it to TATA service center. now it's a eyecather on the road as everything see it.


But the only problem is smoke as when I start and press accelarator it gives plenty of smoke! Even on the road when I change gears and press the accelarator to cope with, it throws a cloud of smoke which feel very awkward. Is it normal???? a mechenic told me that it's because of the pump service and repair and it will be lesser after driving few hundred kms! Somebody told me that I need to install new ring/piston etc. and it will have lesser smoke and better pickup.


I am very passionate about driving it but I don't use it much due to smoke only! INSTEAD I use my other car (Hyundai Getz) much but I like to drive the sierra as I love it love it and love it.


Please advise

Comments on Tata Sierra Review

Hi, I also own a Tata Sierra. I initially took it to Tata Service centre as there was a oil leak in engine and also more smoke was coming. It was failing the pollution test. They charged big amount from me and said everything was OK. But still the pr...oblem was persisting. After that my friend introduced me to a good mechanic. He said the engine had to be overhauled. As I had done some work in Tata Service center he did a mini oberhaul for me costing INR 10,000. Believe me after that the vehicle is superb, it passed the pollution test in flying colours, mileage improved, no issues I have done 2 trips to and fro between chennai and kerala (800 kms). Travelled a lot of bad roads. The vehicle is super. The key is to find the right mechanic for the engine work. He also does't burn my pocket. Two times I drove 800kms in one stretch with my family. I have not felt even a little strain after reaching the destination. Just like other cars I just have to change oils at 8000 kms and do routine checkups.  Read More
