Nooooo. My college is just around Papa Rich SS15 Too bad its at night. If not could have joined you guys Anyway gtg go back study though. Finals next week

LOL I was so proud of my car on the previous petrol pump because I can reach 400km easily. So I thought the fuel efficiency of the car finally came in. But then I just got told that my friends over pumped my car and didn't tell me after that LOL.

They wanted to help, so I told them I loaded RM60 and then I went to toilet. It stopped around RM5x and they continue pumping

Yeah I stopped counting after the light is on. Not sure about everyone else though

Same here! A full tank revving and a full tank light pedal driving, both also nearly the same! Weird.

Yeah fc is a never ending topic. And I am about to bring one up LOL sorry Just very jealous and a little disappointed with the fc. If not, the car would have been almost perfect for me

My friend is driving a vios.. 1 bar of petrol = 66km. Total 8 bar. Wtf? And the worse part is his driving style is more to revving.. Compare to me, he revs a lot.

I don't really calculate. I just see how far I can go from full tank til the light is on

Does anyone of you have trouble judging the left side of the car? I usually can't predict how many space I have left on my left

If you wanna overtake a car by lowering one gear, why not just press more gas to lower one gear? I thought its the same

I notice when we off the engine right, the fuel meter goes below the last line for about 1cm?? Is that how far our petrol can go?

Woots! That means I can reach 400km easily anytime per full tank! Another reason to love my car now

Not long ago I found out a scratch on the bottom part of my steering wheel Its not really clear in this picture though. But still loving the dashboard meters

I don't know who is behind this, but its definitely not my family.

Its either Honda service centre or Cars in Times Square parking

Other than them, no one have ever drove my car(besides my family of course)

Wth my exhaust pipe now produces quite a loud sound Anyone knows what's the problem?

O_O So fast bocor? I don't think lost any power. Still nice Yeah I am going to bring it to SC, next wed

Oh yeah man feel the pull, the power! Whenever I am sleepy I'll just do that to keep myself awake


Please upload some pics of the leather seat! I'm kinda interested too, the original seats is kinda hard

Mine was 2 months+ Worth the wait!


Anyway guys, I tested something with the fuel efficiency thing.
I tried to be as light footed as I can, and I'll get 11~12km/l
After this full tank, I often rev til above 2.5k rpm, sometimes 3.5k rpm,
and I got 12~15km/l
In short: Get above 60km/h as much as possible, because below that I notice the real-time fuel efficiency reader will be very low But of course drive safely!

Snap some pics of your leather seats and post it here please

Tested the vtec again today So fragile

In terms of the pull/force

Why do you sound so defensive I just constantly maintain 80%~90% pedal, the car lowers one gear, pulls for 2 second and suddenly there's an extra pull, very soft though. Can't expect much from a car with mixture of power and fuel economy anyway.


Anyway I went for my 3rd service yesterday at Wegro(yes I know, a lot of bad remarks there. But it's the nearest to my house and no one is free to fetch me around ) I complained:

-Exhaust noisier than usual at certain times only. Forum brothers say maybe bocor or what.
They checked, and say no problem \:

-Rough gearchange, again.
Their answer? "Reset the ECU eledi, you drive n see how la". I told them every time I send for service, I bring this up and they came up with the same thing.

Then they try to explain another same thing again, this is conventional gearbox bla bla not cvt. Before he could finish, I interrupted him saying my friend's vios is conventional too but no jerk/not as obvious as this. Then at the end of the day, we could do nothing about it but to accept it

-Rubber strips around the door doesn't seem to be in place.
Finally a more satisfying answer. They are ordering them and will call me after they receive it

-Alignment problem I guess. Steering straight, sometimes car moving left. They say they will fix it with a charge of RM63. No difference. Can't conclude anything. Maybe road problem

Even though it wasn't that satisfying but still acceptable, but when I was about to collect my car, they asked me to drive it out myself at the car washing area. Yup, foams all over the front of my car and I was like

I may seem like complaining a lot, but deep inside I still love this car Greatful at the same time

Hahaha.. Actually the mazda 3 interior caught my attention when it was displayed in Times Square. But my dad say the resale value not good etc. So forced to choose between City and Vios Honda ftw! Thanks to the interior too haha.

Well I would like to hear some vios COMMON problem so I would stop praising it x:

Same here, kevin23 But the first few weeks I kept monitoring my real-time fc meter.. so sometimes can get 400 before the petrol light appear.

Normal driving? Around your range

Omg do you guys always hit bumpers? I always have trouble with bumpers when I carry passengers unless they are leaf-weight.

1. The car and the bumper will contact if the car carries more than .. well me LOL

2. Very stiff suspension leads to very bumpy T_T

True?

I have no idea where it hits but when it hits, it makes a very loud knock sound

To be honest, I don't know how fast can I corner though. Mine is pure stock

0.6~0.9 I guess

This is going to be my first time driving a long distance journey Let's see how this baby does!

On the way back to Penang, this is what I can tell from the trip o_O

1. Maybe my friend's previous City had alignment problem, if not then NHC certainly doesn't sway as much as the previous one. Or I felt none unless I passby lorries or busses

2. I changed from Gen2 to City, at high speed both cars make loud noises But nothing naughty. I wonder if there is any sound-proofing upgrades I can make

3. Power was awesome for a 1.5L car Slower, but not a problem catching up with my dad's car. Totally trashed it for the first time man, my rpm was 4k average. 2.5k was lowest, 6k+ ....

4. Revved so much, fuel consumption is lower than driving below 3k rpm city driving

5. There was a big turning around KL highway that time and both my and my dad didn't know about it, amazingly the City corners well and was keeping my own lane It was a big 90 degree round turn, if I'm not mistaken I was around 70km/h~90km/h that time, no tires screeching

Overall it was fun! Got tail-gated by a dangerous Vios driver though
