Haha well said , i was about to say that too. I'm not sure whether there's anyone who mentioned this before.
I would like to ask whether anyone of you ( New City owner) experienced some sort of "loose sound under the car" whenever you drive on an uneven road. It sounds like the something is not tightly sealed/screwed...
Plus , the driver seat whenever you go over a bump a little bit faster , as your body losses contact and then when back portion of your body land back on the chair, it feeels like the seat is loose...

serious? so i am not the only one. glad to hear that. my car exactly 1 year old now only.
sianz, think one of my rim bent becos i kena a big hole one of the day recently. u know la. malaysia road condition.

emm. i am not going for third party rim at outside ah beng shop, i hate non-original stuff. i always stick to original parts. maybe i check with the service centre, how much does it cost to replace the rim. i believe they must have stock to sell for sure. at most need to order only. i like the original rim looks.
alternatively, maybe i will send to honda SC to repair my rim. if the cost is abt the same as new rim. i will opt for new rim instead. but need to leave the rim there for up to 2 week

to me 17 to 18 inch does not look nice, and it hurts FC too. i believe it also incur the risk in the case ur absorber got prob, and the SC may find excuse to reject ur warranty claim. i am not confirm if Honda will deny ur warranty claim if u change the parts. it happened to my friend case his one is P brand car.
but my main qns is that does it cause any safety issue for bent rim?

labour to do wheel alignment = rm36, balancing and tyre rotation = rm32.
so total rm68, i find that the price is cheap, considered it is doing at the SC.

Added on May 20, 2011, 10:55 pmfor me, so far i do not hear any obvious sound when go over uneven road, i just feel the car is more bumpy than my insight when go over the same uneven road with the same speed.

i dun understand why ppl said the sound proof is bad, i think NHC the soundproof is consider not bad already. when my car is on stationery mode (not moving), the sound outside is very minimum, there are quite a few times, i didn't notice that my car is already started becos i do not hear the engine sound outside. only when moving u can hear the tyre sound etc, but to me it is acceptable.

I agree on this too, but engine vroom is clearly heard, wind noise at high speeds, and tyre noise...

yeah, when drive high speed can hear the wind noise and tyre noise. but i feel acceptable.

i dun know abt other car. to me i feel acceptable. for car at this kind of price.

How does it compare to insight?

strange i didn't experience any kind of sp called "loose sound under the car", or the feeling like the seat is loose whenever you go over a bump a bit faster

hmm you better sent to SC to have a proper checking on your car

Yea i think i should. Going next month for my 10000km service.

Need help, my City air-con just kaput. Any service center open on Sunday. Cannot bear to wait until Monday. Thanks.

i find both the sound proof abt the same.

mugen injection type door visor for city

door visor makes the car less sporty. i regret installing my door visor.

Actually I feel the door visor makes the car looks even smaller. That is why I did not install it.

door visor is to avoid when raining u open the window the water will not straight get into the interior , or cold raining time,can open a bit window to cover the rain not split in..

ugly o not , very personal comment

Depends on which part is bent.
Usually wheel balance will be first to go out. You can hear some strange sound when the car is moving faster and the steering will shake, depends on front wheel or rear wheel.
If the bent part is near the tyre and it's deep, sometimes air might escape when there is a harsh vibration and resulting a punctured tyre.
Anyway, you should really go and fix the bent rims unless you are way broke this time of the year.
No point keeping that for memory.

haha i feel it makes it look much sportier, especially on cars like city

Where u change ur rims ? wat s ur tyre brand ?

hi guys... need some opinion here...

im about to leave my car for 2 weeks..
should i pull battery cable?

will it drain my battery if not pulling out?

hope expert here can give opinion..

thanx...

thanks for the advice. I am actually got no issue spending the money to fix the bent rim. in fact, i am thinking of getting a new rim if the price is close. i am ok with that. want to fix all the flaws also.

tried before. no need to unplug battery cable.
in fact, i left my car idle for 3 weeks.
when i reached home, i couldn't believe how dusty it was then. gee.
but it still can start and work fine.

you can try to check if you can get exactly one piece of the rims.
if you mean you want to change all 4 rims, the price difference will be at least myr 600 ~ 700?
not too sure about that.

Hi. everybody. Just change whole set 16" sport rims for my honda city 5g.. car feel stable but powerless... so i change exhaust system with it.. Nw the car feel better abit.. So panic about 5g gearbox , keep changing gear when i climb genting road... my city is s spec , is that e spec have paddle shift better ?
