My 2006 Grand Vitara 1.6 G16b has an intermittent fault with the idle speed, the car has 19000 miles on it, yes 19000.

GV tyres
I would like to give my 89-05 3 door GV a bit more ground clearance but don’t really want to fit a lift kit. I’m thinking of changing the tyres, 215x65x16 on alloys to all terrain, question is if I fit higher profile tyres to give more ground clearance how big a tyre will fit without fouling the bod...

I asked the question of Suzuki, giving them the vin number, they say E10 is fine to use in the car.

Re: E10 Petrol
Thank you for the replies.

GV tyres
Any recommendations for all terrain tyres for a 98 -05 1.6lt GV?
Not interested in really rough off roading rather off road when fishing or picking up with the dogs etc?
Tyres are 215/65/16 fitted on standard alloys.

E10 Petrol
I’ve just bought a very low mileage Grand Vitara 98 to 05 fitted with the G16B 1.6lt petrol engine, Will this run on E10 without any issues?
The handbook etc is as clear as mud, not surprising really given the age of the car.
