Rear seat rattle solved


Solved the loud rattle that was coming from the rear sire at very slow speeds (half clutch vibration). It was rather difficult to find the source of the noise. Thought it was the parcel tray, door handles, etc... Could reproduce it finally by thumping on the rear seat back side. Unlocked the seat flip down, and saw there was some insulation tape wound on the lock stud and it was torn. Looks like it came from the factory itself or the TVS guys did some decent PDI/fix. Took the old tape off and wound 8-10 turns on the stud.

The rattle noise disappeared from then on!

Diagnostic Port



The diagnostic port for Palio 1.2 is located next to the ECU in the engine bay. It is a yellow connector tucked beneath the ecu in a protective cap.

This is not a standard OBD connector, but the electrical interface comply to OBD standard. The three leads are K-line, L-line and Ground.
