Just did my first 1000km service this afternoon. I didnt know that they will not change the engine oil, normally like toyota they will. IF they are not planning to change the engine oil during the first 1000km service , maybe we dont really need to break in the engine. Maybe after 500km of breakng in we can start to speed. Just my thoughts tho...

O yeah just some add-on based on 1282009's post. Even though the NHC is not as good as the older version in terms of pickup, but when both cars maintain at 70km/h and then u step on the accelerator , i feel that the NHC is much more powerful. So,there's pros and cons.

Oh sorry for not being detail enough. I went to make a police report about an hour after the accident occured. So yeah, the policeman took photos of the motorcycle and my car and asked me lots of questions regarding about the accident and he even brought me to the place and asked me to explain to him. So , he told me to wait for 4days to one week time to see who is right or wrong as he needs to investigate and all that shit la.

Err Prataboy, so do i still need to ask for the motorcyclist no.? I took photos of their bike and stuff like that.

When i reached home , my father scolded me for not asking for the details regarding about their insurance. But i'm kinda curious about the importance of knowing the details of the insurance as i've already made a police report.

So means now i should call the insurance company? But all the details is with the policeman. That policeman gave me his no. also. I can call him and ask him to give me the details .

So this is how it happened... I signalled left before i reached the junction and not last minute signal ok? After that i checked my side mirrors and to see if there is any car/motorcycle , i saw both of the motorcycles at a far distance. I slowed down my car by stepping on the brakes gently as i'm getting nearer to the junction. So roughly another 20m away from the junction i checked the side mirror and realised that the motocyclist is near ( they didnt even slow down ). Before i even turn left , the motorcyclist out of a sudden banged my left side mirror. Another 1 second later , the second motorcycle banged my right bumper. The problem is i didnt emergency brake and put signal at a very last minute. I seriously dont get it how the motorycle can banged my side mirror as i havent even turn left and block their way.

OF course both of them are dreaming / chatting . I will only get to know who is right or wrong a few days later according to the policeman because he needs to investigate the case and decide. I'm afraid that the policeman will say the bikers are right. IF that happens, i seriously got ntg to say already because it was 100% the bikers fault........... =/

Regarding about the insurance, the policeman ( traffic police ) gave me a photostated copy of the report about the accident and he claims that i can use to claim the insurance whenever i want to repair my car. Unfortunately, i brought my car to Honda authorised workshop today and they said that the insurance company will not accept photostated copy. That means i need an original and certified copy. I seriously don't get it how come the traffic police did not give me the original copy and kept saying that photostated copy will do and he even wrote down his no. in case the insurance company does not accept. I live around PJ area and i have to drive all the way to Kuala Kubu Baru just to get a stupid report in order to pass it to the insurance company. Seriously this is fckin bullshit man. IF the traffic police didnt tell me this bullshit , i would have gotten the original report on that day of the accident at tanjung malim.

Nodeeffect, I do have the same problem like you. I guess this is the nature of the engine itself haha. I used to own an IDSI Jazz. Yea the engine is not as loud as the CITY and accelerates much faster.

Less than a month old. Sadly, its in the workshop due to 2 careless bikers on the road who banged my car. Its around 1300++ km now. Jazz suspension is not as stiff as compared to City and this gives a much more comfortable ride when driving through bumpy roads.

Yeah it sounds logic isn't it? Going uphill requires more fuel for combustion as we need to step on the throttle in order for the car to go up. Hence, Fc will increase as well.

Haha I'm driving the NHC now and no modification on my car so far. So it is purely stock. I realised that if you're light footed all the time , it doesnt mean that u will get the best FC. Try to let the gear change from 1st to 2nd to ..... whenever it needs to. Dont let it be on the 1st gear if it is supposed to be on 2nd gear. If not , u will realise that the rpm will be high and this will result in slightly higher FC. I hope that what i've mentioned is not too confusing for u guys to understand.
