Has anybody else had issues with the clutch on their Baleno car? I had only done 48000 when the original clutch failed. I had bought the car new.

Yes mine went at about the same time. Gear box rod fell apart when they changed it. Was told no clutch and would have to wait weeks. Had to get it fixed privately.

How does the Baleno GL with 5-spd manual perform on the highway, what RPM does it spin at 100kph ??? Important as I live in a rural area. Thanks

Hi TheWarden, you pose an interesting question. We have just taken delivery of a (dealer demo) Suzuki S-Cross Turbo to keep our Suzuki Baleno company. Both have 1.4L engines, the Baleno is lighter than the S-Cross and it has a 4 speed auto, the S-Cross is bigger and because of its 1.4L Turbo petrol engine and 6 speed auto, it has heaps of pulling power (enough to easily tow a medium size tinny). After driving the S-Cross from Grafton NSW to Colac Vic 2 weeks ago, the verdict is in. Both return exactly the same highway fuel consumption (5.2L/100Km). Both are delightful to drive at highway speeds. Both are simple, reliable and easy to live with. But for the rural driver the S-Cross is the "hands down" winner. Cruises at 1700rpm, more interior room and higher ground clearance than the Vitara, best of all its 1.4L Turbo provides effortless hill taming power, making rural driving a pleasure. Hint: a new S-Cross is due in May 22, so you should be able to negotiate a dealer demo for around $25-26K or a used example for under $20K. If this exceeds your budget, I suggest you seek-out a rare 2017 - 2019 Suzuki Baleno Turbo.

anyone know why they dont have the mutil-level floor in Oz version, this is a great feature and makes the cargo area basically flat-folding in UK Balenos

I assume you mean a second level above the boot floor. For me the deep boot is a major Baleno feature that allows class leading space for large suitcases and keeps small items out of sight. Suggestion: replace the space- saver spare wheel with a full size wheel (it fits neatly) and you'll appreciate having it when you shred a tyre 100+km from the nearest town.
