It's an automotive filter in which activated carbon has been placed so that gas tank fuel vapors, which have accumulated when the vehicle is not running, are trapped in the filter.

•When the engine is running, hot air is forced into the filter and push out the vapors into the engine.
•In this way, pollution is reduced and conservation of the fuel is maintained.
•Also called activated charcoal trap or charcoal canister.

very detail explanation, thanks.

last saturday, me and my GF, decided to go to Honda showroom, wanna test drive City, bcoz i wanna change the car. tongue.gif
with bigger luggage , bout 500liter space, one thing disappoint me, the cabin space, my shoulder almost touch with side driver, felt like driving kelisa.

so far, i use persona, i'm very happy with this car performance for long distance/highway road.for city driving, better not using this car.cornering superb and stable, tried at bukit putus/muadzam/mersing road.

nvm, after 5 year, i'll change the another car. nod.gif

NHC NVH is pretty bad despite the engine revv are much more lower..Sprint from standstill to 100kmh takes about 11.5secs flat..the best thing i like NHC is FC meter show 14.8km/1L constantly driving at 100-110kmh.
However, it was sold after few months down the road, not even 1year of ownership biggrin.gif

You bought a NHC and then sold it back after using less than one year ? I would say in term of NVH,Persona did a little better compared to NHC.When it comes to engine smoothness ,it still Honda has the advantage.  laugh.gif

laugh.gif hehe.True, true

H Engine and gearbox smoothness is above average, so for braking...thumbs!

previous version of this thread i remember there's a post about it, those B-Line and M-Line are using 1.3L brake pump which i think its the same with BLM, H-Line and SE are using the better pump, thats why there's a few owner were complaining about the brake is too soft and have to press deeper in order to brake the car where else SE and H-line both using ABS and 4 Disc brake.
*
Correct, we have mentioned it in previous thread. That's why braking sucks, just imagine they fit a small master pump into a 1.2tonnes car..crazy sweat.gif

2nd layer of tint regardless of clear tint, it will not get through JPJ inspection. It is because of 'shadow' effect and can't get accurate meter reading.

If the surface has swirl marks all around, send to profesional detailer to rectify the paintwork first, compound then polish.
