Tata Safari & Storme: Technical Issues & Solutions

• Thread Starter mercedised
• Start date Sep 24, 2012

Just searched the forum and did'nt found any thread related to problems faced by Safari owners. The thread is created to bring out the issues being faced with Safari so as to help members better tackle them with. Recently I had given the car for service and had several issues: 1) AC not working. 2) Clutch oil leaking 3) Several oil leaks. 4) Left pulling. (This has not been solved from several thousand kms)

Is this thread still alive?? coz i have a lot to report!  

@The Monk: The problems you have mentioned will ocour only if there is block in Electronic valve and choaking od Cat Con. What was the reason for damages in ECU wire? Check the quality of fuel you use and Its safe that you change the filling station where your regularly fill fuel. Did you get an solution for the third problem?

Every problem i mentioned was sorted out by replacing wires that were damaged/cut by rodents as i mentioned, vehicle working fine now buddy.  

Hi.... I have two questions to be answered, please help 1) Some auto jukies have recommended to put 2T oil along with diesel. Is it a good thing to do? If we can mix then what care to be taken 2) My service light keeps coming up and stays for 1-2 secs and vanishes. This happens on certain locations on my daily route to work. I gathered these areas are grey patches (where cell phone networks drop drastically) could this be the reason? Please reply  

Jassida, modern diesel cars have particulate filters.The oil will just clog the particulate filter. Make sure your diesel car doesn't have a particulate filter if you wish to mix 2T oil into it. Have you read your owners manual about what the service light indicates? Check the level of engine oil and gear oil.Check if your glow plugs are working. The ECU and ABS are prone to electromagnetic interference.A simple experiment to try would be to locate the ECU/ECM and cover it with aluminium foil.Then check if you face the service light issue when passing through the grey patches you mentioned.

Jessida, service light for safari is towards left and Malfunction Indicator towards right of instrumentation panel. If it is malfunction indicator than it will create a log for malfunction in engine exhaust system which may lead to catalytic converter damage. But, if it is service light then you need to rush it to nearest service centre. If TASC is unable to diagnose, then perhaps phone network needs to be blamed!  

Thanks guys. I enquired with my mechanic he said not to put any thing in the diesel as the EMC detects faulty fuel and may cause some serious harm, As it did to one of the beasts (safari) he worked on due to the same negligence of a enthusiast. @the Monk, buddy its the service light (yellow) not the Malfunction light (red) and the Service light is not on for beyond 2 secs and like i mentioned this happens only in specific areas of my daily route. Will try the aluminum foil technique.  

Have you tried the aluminium foil? Do report back on its effectiveness.  

ive completed 13K kms with my beast. faced minor issue. water drops are coming inside during long trip with AC on. I felt the water drops in my feet during the long drive. I think some other storme owner also faced this issue before. Apart from sponge solution suggested by TASS is there any permanent solution for this?

Tata Safari Storme review, test drive and video

Tata’s long-awaited Safari update, the Safari Storme, hits the roads. We take it out for a spin.

Published on Oct 17, 2012 08:31:00 PM

61,055 Views

When you first look at the new Safari Storme, you are immediately struck by how, even 14 years after its launch, Tata seems to have made barely any changes to the exterior. Alterations to the nose and rear suggest that it’s not much more than a facelift. However, that misconception gets blown to dust the moment you drive it. Once you’re behind the wheel, you realise just how much of an improvement the new Storme is over the previous Safari. It feels better built, it’s far more refined, it rides really well and the interior too feels a generation ahead.

The most obvious changes are to the front, where the slim, wide grille (capped with a thick chrome strip) undercuts the sharp-looking headlights in a nice, stylistic touch. Move to the side however and the Storme looks exactly like the old Safari. New cladding for the doors and wheel arches can’t hide the fact that the glass house is identical, the doors are similar and the A, B and C pillars are the same as well.

At the back, the tailgate-mounted spare wheel has now been moved under the floor. The result is a cleaner rear profile with a new set of tail-lights.

On the inside, the overall improvement in quality all around is immediately evident and almost nothing of the old car is carried over. The chrome door handles and leather seats add a touch of luxury, as do small details like the chrome on the gearlever and the flock lining in the glovebox.

Just like the previous generation Safari, the Storme has excellent seat comfort and, once you haul yourself in, you are rewarded with a commanding seating position and a delightfully spacious and airy cabin. The front seats are large and very well bolstered, whilst the rear bench is supportive too.

In stark contrast, the third row is far from comfortable or practical. The tiny, foldable jump seats are only useable on short journeys, at best.

On the mechanical front, the Safari Storme uses an updated version of the 138bhp Dicor motor, which Tata now calls VariCor, because of the use of a variable geometry turbo. This 2.2-litre common-rail, direct-injection motor uses double overhead cams, hydraulic valve adjusters and sixteen valves to breathe better.

The overall level of refinement is much better now with an engine that is quieter throughout its rev range, and a cabin that feels particularly well insulated from the outside.

Tata engineers have managed to shave around 75 kg off the old car thanks to a lighter chassis, but this hulking two-tonne SUV is a bit lethargic off the line; a result of its weight and lack of low-end torque. You need to keep the engine above 1800rpm, after which the Storme picks up the pace with a fair amount of enthusiasm. The mid-range is quite punchy and cruising is quite effortless, which suits the Safari’s role as a long-distance cruiser.

The clutch is reasonably light and the gearbox has been improved with shorter throws, but the shift still feels a bit soggy and vague.

The Storme sits on a shortened version of the Aria’s hydroformed X2 chassis and maintains the previous Safari’s 2650mm wheelbase. As a result, the Storme’s chassis is approximately 50 percent stiffer and 35kg lighter than the old Safari’s outdated ladder frame.

The ride comfort is simply fantastic. The Storme coasts over bumps and broken roads like a freight train, flattening out even the largest of potholes. The suspension, also carried over from the Aria, is on the softer side, and hence there’s a fair amount of pitching and heaving over uneven surfaces.

The Storme retains the old Safari’s comprehensive four-wheel-drive system that includes a low range and a limited-slip differential. The system is easily engaged by using a central console-mounted dial and this allows the big Tata to tackle medium to difficult sections.

The new Safari Storme comes equipped with features like ABS, remote locking and an audio system with Bluetooth connectivity standard across the range. In fact, the Rs 9.95 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) that Tata is asking for the base Storme LX may be considerably more than the old LX, but the equipment is on par, if not better than, the old mid-level EX.

Unusually, the top-end VX versions (Rs 12.5 lakh for the 4x2) no longer get the reversing camera (there’s just parking sensors) or DVD player as they did before.

The Safari Storme, then, comes across as a quantum leap ahead of the previous Safari. It’s well-equipped, refined, better built and comprehensively updated. And with prices starting from Rs 9.9 lakh for the base 4x2 model and going to Rs 13.7 lakh for the fully loaded 4x4 option, it’s great value for money. Also, as a long-distance cruiser, nothing can quite beat it for the money. The only grouse is that, even after 14 years, Tata hasn’t got around to changing the ageing body completely.

Tata Safari Storme Interior Review

Clamber into the Tata Safari Storme and you immediately feel the uplifted ambiance of the cabin. The interiors are all beige and that for a typical Indian customer means rich.

[Interior quality and design have greatly improved but uneven panel gaps do exist]

The Safari Storme's cabin is a much better place to be, compared to the old Safari. The dashboard layout and design are hugely improved and are ergonomically sound.

[Headlamp controls are shifted to dashboard to make way for audio controls]

The overall quality of the plastics is clearly several notches above the previous car but still uneven panel gaps are to be found here and there. There are few low rent bits scattered around the cabin like the tacky AC vent adjustor and poor quality control stalks.

[The analogue clock is neatly placed and the new center console looks much better]

As far as the design is concerned, the four-spoke steering wheel with silver inserts is new and can be adjusted for rake. The all-new centre console is finished in faux wood and houses a neatly integrated analogue clock and centre AC vents, the controls for the HVAC, and an Alpine music system (we will talk about it a little later). There are two bottle holders ahead of the gear knob; also there is a useful storage compartment above the centre console.

[The AC has an economy mode the spread is quick and even throughout the cabin]

The dashboard is split horizontally by a faux wood strip and the side AC vents have silver highlights. The beige color does a good job of providing an airy feel but on the flipside, it becomes responsible for the annoying glare on the front windshield.

[Rear arm rest contains a storage space; The rear AC controls are mounted on the roof]

The front seats are high, very comfortable with lumbar adjustment and offer a good view of the road. If you fancy a truck like driving position, the driver’s seat has height adjustment. Both the front seats get armrests and the driving position is nice and comfortable.

[Jump seats are only for children and the space is better used with the seats folded]

The controls for the headlamps are now shifted to the dashboard, below the right AC vent, to make way for the audio controls on the stalk. Now that brings us back to the Alpine music system. It has Bluetooth connectivity and the sound quality from the speakers is excellent.

The Tata Safari was always known for its superb middle row of seats and in fact that was one of the primary strengths of this SUV. We are happy to inform that hasn’t changed with the Storme. The rear seats are supremely comfortable as always, with adequate thigh support and easily pass the test as the best in the segment. The legroom is ample even with the front seats pushed all the way back.

The Safari Strome’s rear passenger compartment contains two jump seats which are large enough for children but the adults will start complaining in few minutes into the journey. The step provided is totally useless while alighting and hence the jump seats are strict no no for senior citizens.

Fold the seats and the luggage space available is adequate and the net provided is useful in preventing the things from flying around.

Overall, the cabin quality is a big leap ahead, the space on offer is fantastic and the design of interiors has improved from the old car, a lot more than the new exterior suggests.

Tata Safari Storme Review: Battling the Storme

Aditya Chatterjee

Saturday 29 December 2012,00:00 AM IST

Back in 1998, when Tata Motors introduced the Safari in India, little did the company know that its first true blood SUV will keep battling the competition fiercely for so long. The Safari has braved various tides across its tenure.

Tata Motors realized that the Safari may be an enthusiast’s favorite but then not exactly a very popular car among its competition especially with the Mahindra XUV500 scooping the SUV segment with its giant market share.

The boys at Tata Motors were determined to bring in a new version of this cult SUV but with a refined persona. Changing the way it looks, feels and performs but without compromising on the basic essence of Safari.

Thus, Tata Safari Storme was born, an SUV which the company claims to boast of redesigned exteriors, improved quality of interiors, better performance and a refined VariCOR engine. This is our detailed review of the Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 variant where we find out more on this classic SUV.

Appearance Exterior

 The Tata Safari has always had the looks of a macho SUV. It does not have wild and aggressive lines as such but then its matured looks always illustrated power in a controlled way. When we got our Storme for review, our cameras were more than excited to shoot it as we knew it that the Storme will give us plenty of opportunities to shoot it in dust and sand with the Storme enjoying it too.

With the Storme, Tata Motors wanted to express their maturity in design. The new design language of it drops delicious hints of the British Land Rover connect. It has got a well rounded design and looks very modern from all angles. The flat head and longish bonnet brings a new element in the Safari .

Finally, the projector headlamps make its way into the Safari and in a nice way. The new headlamp design looks compact and the detailing done in it is good. The Storme gets a new face with the chrome lining on the bonnet line. This bling line also has the syllables STORME etched on it. We are glad that Tata Motors chose to make the Storme look modern instead of giving it a family look with a rectangular wire meshed radiator grille which has a V design embedded in it.

The lower jaw line of the front face has been cleaned from the earlier generation and the one on the Storme features clean lines without any unnecessary profiles on them. Circular fog lamps with chrome lining around them are fixed on the bumper. At the extreme end of the bumper is the air splitter with mild scoops which has been done very neatly.

Seen from the side, the difference starts to reduce as it appears very similar to the earlier Safaris unless observed very patiently and pointing out the minor differences. The ones that stand out are the new design alloy wheels which are not exactly very sporty unlike the ones that come on DICOR. Outside rear view mirrors are now covered in chrome with indicators affixed on them. These mirrors can be electrically adjusted from inside the cabin.

The distinct roof rails and the new tail lamp design are also new additions. Dimensionally, the Storme is marginally longer i.e. by 5 mm and wider than the Safari DICOR. The footsteps provided to aid the passenger get in are indeed very useful and of a strong built.

The Safari Storme visually reminds of the Land Rover Discovery 4 with its overall design looking inspired from the premium SUV. The rear D Pillar design and the clean lines on the rear tail gate are very reminiscent. On the rear tail door is a chunky dull matte plank with the naming done in chrome. The rear bumper sports twin rear exhausts affixed on the rear bumper and look very interesting. One more welcome change is the tail door sans the spare wheel mounted on it which gives it a more contemporary look.

Contrast in colors used on the body and the bumper is good with a small drawback though. This drawback is the positioning of the rear foot step for the third row passengers which is on the left of the bumper. It gets difficult for the third row passenger, specially the one sitting on the right to spot the footstep which is close to impossible in dark conditions. Making it a centrally placed arrangement would have served the purpose just right.

Appearance Interior

Getting inside the tall cabin is not that easy as it’s located at a considerable height and also there is no handle on the A-pillar to aid your entry inside the vehicle. Inside the cabin, it feels a lot roomier and also with the fact that this one is wider so there is lots of room to breathe throughout the cabin.

It may not exactly be a premium SUV but then the Safari Storme shows tremendous improvement over the earlier offering. The sand and chocolate wood colors used in the interior feel nice and plush. The dashboard, central console and the door handles are done in wooden vinyls and none of it looks overly done. The front dashboard design remains same with lots of straight and square lines.

The steering wheel has pseudo metal finish on its spokes. It feels nice and confident to grip. The only drawback about it is no audio / phone controls on it and thus you have to toggle off and on the steering. However, there is an audio control lever on the right of the steering wheel through which you can change the mode i.e. Aux, Radio etc and also seek different tracks and control volume as well. Its peculiar position does not make it too convenient to use and instead we ended up using the music system directly. Another drawback is the quality of music through the speakers which was disappointing. All frequencies of music sound the same and there was no sort of bass in the speakers.

Legroom of SUVs are not an area of complain and so the Safari Storme too doesn’t fall behind. The front and second row legroom is generous. The materials used in the seats feel improved with adequate bolstering. One small place of improvement can be the level of comfort especially for the second row passengers. It is at the same height with the front row however in long journeys they may not prove to be very comfortable. The foldable third row seats are the last place you can expect any comfort from. We kept the seats folded and often flooded this space with our luggage and equipment.

The plastic quality and the interior trim quality is decent and shows that the engineers at Tata Motors have indeed taken the feedback very seriously and worked meticulously on it. The Safari Storme indeed has good quality of interiors but then still it can be pushed further more improving the overall fit and finish of the vehicle.

Performance Drive

The Safari Storme features an improved version of the DICOR called the VariCOR engine which promises to be more reliable and efficient with less vibration. The VariCOR unit has the same displacement of 2179cc. It produces a maximum power of 140 PS at 4000 rpm and a torque of 320 Nm at a range of 1700 to 2700 rpm.

Some of the characteristics of the Safari are felt in the Storme too. Crank up the key and the Storme gets evidently alive as the VariCOR produces a good kick as soon as the engine is started. It is not an agile vehicle at all also on lower rpms the Storme just gets too lazy to make any move. Press the pedal and the body starts swinging along its length. The rocking movement has been a Safari trait and the ride gets very choppy as we move forward.

A turning radius of 5.4m is a very impressive element for a SUV of this size and dimensions. Also to aid reverse the vehicle is a reverse assist on the rear view mirror which alerts the driver on the nearest obstacle from the vehicle. The Air conditioner was chilling and it didn’t take lot of time to cool the cabin. For the second row passengers, roof mounted AC vents serve the purpose though these vents take up good space. It would be a task to clean these vents when dirty as the sand interiors would attract dust very easily.

Press the brake pedal hard and the vehicle will swing and cradle towards the front. The braking quality is decent and can be improved. Maneuvering the vehicle from tight turns and spots can be a bit of a task. The gear shits are better but not too smooth. The shifts can get a bit notchy when shifted often. Inside the city in bumper to bumper traffic the gear shifts get hard to be dealt with.

This issue however subsides on highways. It’s a total treat on the highways. Its bully stance and amazing street presence work totally in its favor. During our review, a curious onlooker in a Skoda Superb tried catching up with us but was not able to, now this was cause of our stellar performing Storme or his driving skills is what we left it at.

We had already driven the Safari Storme on the special terrapod track where we got an idea of its off roading capabilities. During our detailed review, we tried squeezing the best from the Storme by challenging it across different types of terrains and surfaces which can be seen from our images as well. The Shift on the fly 4 wheel drive mode is something we got to play around. Twist it and the Storme gets into serious mud fight mode. It gets into a maximum traction mode and just anchors the ground firm.

The Storme is based on the Aria’s platform and has a stiff hydro formed chassis which is a superb change. We tested the new setup on hilly terrains with the vehicle generously loaded. Naturally, we had to be on lower gears but then the Storme took on the obstacles with great ease. Its ground clearance of 200mm came in handy.

While some would complain about the new engine being noisy, I personally was enjoying it. It was better than the factory fitted music system at least. Driving it on road and off it was a fun experience as the dual character of the vehicle gets out evidently. The Safari Storme surely does feel improved and lighter but then still it leaves space for further improvement.

The company claims a mileage of 14kmpl (2WD Mode) for the Safari Storme. We got a realistic figure of 11kmpl throughout our review. 

Competition All Specs

 It has not been too long that the Safari Storme has been launched inspite of delay in the launch. This delay can be seen as the period which Tata Motors took to make sure the Safari Storme hits the market with a bang and does not go unnoticed.

Prices start from Rs.10,39,262 for the LX 4x2 variant and goes upto Rs.13,99,191 for the VX 4x4 variant (prices are Ex-Showroom Mumbai). On the other hand, Safari Storme’s rival the Mahindra Scorpio which offers features such as voice assist, steering mounted controls and cruise control stands not just as an obstacle but a tough block to ignore. The only way the Storme beats the Scorpio is by its better performing engine and off roading capabilities.

Safari Storme comes forward as a very promising SUV. With the new additions and changes, it proves to be a serious contender in the now popular SUV segment. There is also news about Tata Motors launching a more powerful and luxurious version of the Safari Storme. Also an automatic variant is in consideration too.

The Safari Storme also bring in confidence of the consumers back to the Safari brand which has a cult fan following. We just hope Tata Motors takes the feedback seriously and incorporates all the changes in the next generation Safari Storme.
