driving nhc is about knowing your gears and speed. Once you learn how the gear changes...stick to around 60km/h and you will get good fc. I am also 100% city driving..getting around 400km for full tank when the light comes out. However, I do travel a long LDP daily. Going to work..there are less traffic but going back is really jam. Somemore I often need to travel around my Taman and there are TONS of bumps and traffic light.

You just need to let the car accelerate slowly and not rev. People want to slot in...just let them be lah..no need to be kiasu.

Haha yeah. I never really rev my car unless i have to also. Anyway i have to wait for my second service , hopefully to see a bigger improvement in terms of FC and performance =D

I noticed that everytime when i drive over some bump , sometimes if we drive fast our body tend to 'jump' also. When my body falls back to the seat, i can feel that my seat is a little bit loose. I dont know which part as i think its somewhere behind the chair or something. Anyone encounter this problem? I'm going to complain during my 5000km... Haih...

Prataboy, if im not mistaken , if u want to claim from your insurance you have to inform the insurance company first then only you bring your to the Honda Authorised Worskhop.

I went Old Klang Road there and repair my car. That place there itself is a showroom,service centre and also a workshop to repair cars. Check your Honda book that comes with the car and try searching for the Honda Authorised workshop... There's another one at Sungai Buloh too.

About installing bodykits should be alright. But changing to bigger rims may void the warranty. Best is to ask your SA.

Haha motorcycle banged my side mirror, whole thing fell off but still working. I heard if change the whole side mirror is expensive but for your case just the side mirror should be cheap.

Just Curious though, anyone here rev their car till 5k before 3000km mileage?

That is why its good to check your tyres every morning before you go to work or something. I always check just in case ... Better be safe than sorry =)

Well it might not be that fast from stationary. But once you gain momentum lets say at 60km/h, you can feel the power when you accelerate.

Agree with what Franson said about the handling. Drove my friend's City I-DSI, the new City handling is definitely better. Of course this is not a car for you to race, to those who say this car handling not that good, maybe you guys should go for other car instead of City.

Isn't it because of the shift hold control on the city? That is why the car will not switch gears. O yeah, someone said that they wished the "I" is removed from the ivtec? I used to drive a Honda jazz IDSI engine and the same thing happened as well.

Yea I think this would be a better choice since your dad's waja is quite old already. It's better to sell it to avoid major repair maybe a few years time later.
