It's okay, mate. Just exchanging opinion. I thought it as well depends on the type of rims used?

So far the only Honda City Mugen RR kit I've seen belongs to one of the guys in the 2009NHC FBFC.
For BK, most of us are comfortable with the Modulo (albeit modded) and a handful of the Air Master

Yea, the guys in TC have great mods indeed. Guess we've got to wait awhile until more aftermarket parts comes out for the NHC. sweat.gif

Added on June 15, 2010, 5:55 pmRON95 smile.gif
1. Petronas
2. BHPetrol
3. Esso/Mobil
...... In that order

Why RON95? Simple. It's cheaper. Mileage, similar to the RON97. Power? I seldom drive hard, so I can't tell if the difference is substantial.

i all the time stick to ESSO RON95. Choose ESSO coz can gain point and redeem for petrol. Most worth.

However, last week tried BHP RON95, significantly more powerful and better pick up.. BHP petrol indeed has good quality. Havent reached end of the tank yet.. will update how good is its FC. smile.gif

Fuel warning light appear after 440km of travelling ... And remaining range was like only 10km.

Decided to pump .. but full tank only 32liter .....

Guess there is another 10 more liter .

Weird Honda decided to let the spare tank to be a massive 10 liter.

Yah weird that why normally I will try to drive around 100km more before pumping in. Dont need to waste my time keep going to the petrol station..

Anyone tested with difference petrol in their CITY? Like Vios I heard that pumping ESSO can save more. Is that true?

RON99? Where can you get that? Octane Booster perhaps? Honestly, you can't really feel a difference with the type of fuel.. our engine isn't a high-performance one like say the K20A.

On the "emergency tank" holding up to 9 / 10 litres when the light bleeps on, well that's something we want to know too. Maybe when we (HC3) head down for our HM Plant visit we'll ask them about it. I've no complains though, I'm tuned to filling up my car at RM60 @ 33.33l so I roughly know when that happens smile.gif

According to the car's manual (yeah i gone through it), NHC can support petrol up to RON91.

According to my friend (car enthusiast), different RON means difference ratio of fuel compression and burning. Higher RON means higher compression means when burned at same amount of unit will give out more burst (power). But to burn higher RON petrol, you will need more power engine.

According to NHC's manual, the car will compensate the engine when it detected less than RON94 (or is it RON91? forgot). So anything above, it will burn at same performance. Meaning RON95 or RON97 also the engine will perform the same thing. The extra burst from RON97 will only be wasted.

This is what I understand from reading the manual and checking friends. Not sure if it is correct but for now it's RON95 for my car.

tested with NHC.

Ron95 (petronas) give me more mileage for city driving (average 17km/l, 60-80km/h) and Ron97 (shell) give me more power and mileage for highway driving (average 18km/l, 90-110km/h).

To be honest, no. Cause the 1st service is just checking and some balancing and alignment work. 2nd service is where all the oil change comes in. So yeah. Hopefully the 2nd service helps.

actually, at 100km/h it's 2.1k rpm.

The fuel calculations is not accurate. Take it like a grain of salt.

After petrol meter reach half-way mark, it goes down very fast. Normal for most cars. In fact a all the cars I have drove have this kind of issue. Maybe it's the way fuel meters are designed.

In the end of the day, it depends on your own calculations of km/liter. Go to http://hc3msia.com/index.php and check the FC posted there.

RON99? Where can you get that? Octane Booster perhaps? Honestly, you can't really feel a difference with the type of fuel.. our engine isn't a high-performance one like say the K20A.

On the "emergency tank" holding up to 9 / 10 litres when the light bleeps on, well that's something we want to know too. Maybe when we (HC3) head down for our HM Plant visit we'll ask them about it. I've no complains though, I'm tuned to filling up my car at RM60 @ 33.33l so I roughly know when that happens smile.gif

Read the link, bro. Thanks.
But from all that I've read thus far (e.g. LYN and Paultan.org), the Shell V-Power is still rated at RON97 but with some Fuel Friction Modifier additive and perhaps other stuff which makes the fuel of higher quality (prolly like a RON99). That's about it. Correct me if I'm wrong too smile.gif

That price is reasonable. Wonder how difficult to have it installed and does the light goes off after the ignition is started or door is closed?

if not mistaken, the light tap into the door/lamp light. If door open then light will be on and turn on ignition it will be off. Same like if you had the illuminated side step.

yes.. actually i tap the wire to the socket which using for illuminated side step use. While you unclock the car, the light will on... same function with room light. when open door it on... and when ignition is started or door is closed it will off... it follow exatly same as your room light function. Abubin is right... same as illuminated side step

tinting is a must of cos ..

then go to security stuff ... thats very important - locktech

then go for minor accessories - door visor etc .

or u can go for heavier mod - skirting / sport rim

actually it depends on what discount voucher they give u.
if branded 1, you can always call to the tinted brand HQ and ask for the price w/o telling them any voucher, then you can roughly know the price.

You have to changed your driving pattern on the new NHC. It is DBW and not cable throttle.

Hmm.. your ECU will adapted to your driving style. So try to maintain a constant when picking up then your FC will improve.

For me.. I still adapting to light foot driving but in vein.. hehe.. full tank only 390km.. hehe..

Well, more of less the same. But included a few trip of LDP highway. During this tank of fuel, I really tried not to downshift my gears when I'm already in my 5th gear. I used to do that a lot in order to achieve a fast acceleration.
Well, light foot really helps, I guess.

That's decent FC for 1/2 tank. I'm able to hit 250 for 1/2 tank, but a little ease of the throttle though smile.gif

One thing for sure, changing from 4G CITY to the current NHC is hard thing to do. The difference in gearbox tends to make you want to rev it more in this new CITY. Since the new city is a revable (elastic revving) instead of non-elastic revving gearbox (which the RPM will not drop until u let go of the accelerator) of the previous 4G.

Well, more of less the same. But included a few trip of LDP highway. During this tank of fuel, I really tried not to downshift my gears when I'm already in my 5th gear. I used to do that a lot in order to achieve a fast acceleration.
Well, light foot really helps, I guess.

Not sure whether my term used was right. But when you're already in ur 5th and u stepped ur accelerator deep to a extend, it will automatically downshift ur gear to 3rd, and causes (of cuz) the rev to be higher. And higher rev means heavy foot, indirectly means bad fuel consumption. ''S'' spec don't have paddle shifter.

Yes, Phil. I got that problem too. When I pump my tire pressure for the first time. The machine can't even detect. But Honda said it's normal during the 1st time.

Sorry to hear that, buddy.

IMO, sometimes it's not about the security installed, it's all luck. But of course, installed security does give you a better peace mind.

That's one thing I hate to do service in SC..no choice can't stop them turn on/off engine/aircond also.

For 1K service only inspection, probably they want to try run your aircond is working good or not? tongue.gif If you do aircond service, they will try run it under the coldest temperature (max) for minutes with engine running... doh.gif biggrin.gif

Update for all:

During my previous fuel refill, I changed my driving style of high revving, and clocked total of 330km the moment the refill indicator lighted on. Well, we shall see how this round of fuel perform, and hopefully the ECU is changing according to my new driving style. Will update all of you soon smile.gif

You can go back to Service Centre and inform them about the high rev during idle.. they will adjust for u..

Anyway eventhough your rev is high and 90% city drive..

OMG 390km is so much man..

Mine is 360-380km in city drive..

But you can get back full amount which you have paid for the car right? (except accessories cost)

Just an update on the FC, full tank still manage to get about 260km to 280km only.
Probably it's because I stay in a hilly area.

1st year warranty claim should be 100%.
2nd yr onwards if not mistaken should be 85%.

Btw. just a sharing with NHC folks here :-

If your car is lost during a car wash / jockey parking - and a police report statement says that u passed your car key for car wash/jockey parking, there will be no insurance coverage for such losses.
It's because the car key was willingly passed by the owner to a 3rd party

You can go back to Service Centre and inform them about the high rev during idle.. they will adjust for u..

Anyway eventhough your rev is high and 90% city drive..

OMG 390km is so  much man..

Mine is 360-380km in city drive..

True. Top up a bit to get a new look and new generation of City. But seriously, for those that drove both 4G and 5G, what do you think in terms of comfort and power? For me, 4G feels more powerful and in terms of comfort, 5G beats 4G hands down.

Idling for a long period and mostly short distance drive does affect it as well.

For the past week of driving my NHC, I've been experiencing some sort of jerkiness for the 1st and 2nd gear shifting whenever I accelerate with 2000 rpm or below.

The car just doesn't feel smooth when it's accelerating in slow speed. The auto transmission just seems like confused of staying with 1st gear or shifting to 2nd gear.

Anyone experience something similar?

no leh...i don't rev until 5k rpm. Even when I drive more agressive also it's also under 3k rpm. A few shortburst pickup from low gear only. But remember, this is like 90% city driving. Actually it is 100% city driving but sometimes along LDP, traffic is a little smooth then I consider highway lah...

Yes, that does happen when you are stuck in jam. But what do you expect the car to do? It's auto shift.....

Sure boh? Still got laa..maybe a little mellow, but still got la.. haha!

320km per tank (I assume @ 33l; when the lights go off) is kinda bad. The short burst from stop, go, stop, go will definitely hurt your FC. Even if you are stuck in the jam, if you slowly accelerate..you can see the difference. From 5 days of KL driving, I can still get about 430km per tank (@ 33l)

Those shortburst are only when I drive more agressive. When I drive light footed with slow acceleration, still get only 390km. This is without the shortburst pickup.

Anyway, just came back from lunch. The distance and traffic is almost like my daily driving back and forth work.

Avg speed: 22.4km/h
Dist: 35.0km

Yea, the idling thinggie can be quite a pain actually. I'm contemplating trying out switching off my engine during long traffic jam to see how much fuel I can save. I think it may be substantial 'cos whenever I idle for a long time, my meter average reading drops at least 0.5 km/l.

.. I think it's imperative to get at least a brake pedal lock (e.g. LockTech, DPlus Lock etc). Though I do hope that these thieves doesn't start getting too smart on disabling it. Else, you can take it one step further by getting an additional immobiliser cum anti-hijack device.

I installed locktech rm350 + cobra connex rm3660 to my new honda city.........not bad feel safer now............

the cobra connex service is damn good.........the manager + one of his staff came down all the to supervise the installation of the connex to my car yesterday....he said i am first honda city in my town to install the connex....that's why he came down to make sure everything is ok.... he said, due to budget, normally only honda accord or crv customers install the product....and becos they are highly targeted for car theft.......... tongue.gif 

explained and demo very detailed to me on the product........and the best part i impressed is that the manager while explained to me on all the good features and he does not hide the limitation of the product.... e.g. I asked him if the car is at the location out of GSM signal how.... he advised me not to park the car at car park basement 2 or 3 as the product still rely on GSM + Satellite signal for sending alerts....(there is a SIM card inside the device)....

best part is yesterday after installed got prob receiving the alerts, so troubleshoot until very late....and still cannot work, and suspect maybe hardware prob etc....and the manager will come down next sat again from kl for my connex again....

and the manager is damn nice, offer free 2nd year subscription to me.....it will save me rm360..... rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

and he guaranteed even the alert is not working yet, but started from yesterday after the installation.... any theft of the car they will still compensate me....

(the cobra connex comes with compensation guarantee if the car was stolen and cannot be recovered, they will compensate rm15k cash + rm15k voucher for buying new car (any model) at honda), if the car is recovered, they pay up to rm5k for the bill to repair the parts etc for the damage caused by the theft......even like cases when the car windows are broken due to the attempt of the theft but the car was not stolen, they will pay the bill also.......and not claim limit in terms of the no of times of the claim...

All the above claim are separated from the insurance company claim one......and he told me the insurance company toyko marine by the authorized dealer which i bought my car from.... is the best among the 4 insurance companies that tied to different authorized dealer.... becos they offer sum insured...... meaning if says sum insured of the car is rm85k, in the case of car lost, i will get back really rm85k unlike other insurance company may only compensate "market value" which will be lower than the sum insured.....not sure if other insurance companies under honda is offering the same or not....this is just what i am told.... sweat.gif

anyway, happy with the connex......recommended.........i can track my car location via web or phone call.... and i can define speed limit/zone in zone out alert.... meaning if i drive above the limit i set says 120km/hr i will receive alert or if i

my stoopig SA is terrible wants to push me to another no brand no name service which does not even come with all these compensation when i told him that I want to install connex....becos he can earn more commission out of it....and he is not recommending me products that suits my interest. .lousy SA that is slow in response as well etc..... took 1.5 months to arrange me to install the connex..... only until i threatened him that I will lodge a official complaint to honda malaysia then he next day morning then immediately respond the confirmed date for installation...really no see coffin no cry....... mad.gif

suggest u guys who encounter lousy SA next time to do the same to threaten them that u will make complaint then they will really do their job properly..... mad.gif

wahlau...that's only around 333km for 30liter full tank...kinda low considering some people get higher. I am sure this is for almost 100% city driving.

Yesterday, I got a trip to putrajaya. 80-100km/h for most of the time. Seems like fuel intact also minimal.

Therefore, I think NHC is really suited for highways. For city driving, not really that suitable. This I meant for FC wise.

Maybe they should change the name to Honda Highway.... LOL

If 100% city driving, guess the Fc is like that .

Tried mine on highway - 330km - about 4 bars of petrol used.

Hi,

This is because the stupid pillar in mid valley Parking, the pillar is half type and when I doing reverse parking, the sensor unable to detect it. Luckily the bumper didn't broke, anyone here know how to recover it? If change the original rear bumper, how much does it cost including the paint works?

Thanks.

I just crashed my rear bumper for my nhc, it's just like a dog bite and the paint also dropped. This is because the stupid pillar in mid valley Parking, the pillar is half type and when I doing reverse parking, the sensor unable to detect it. Luckily the bumper didn't broke, anyone here know how to recover it? If change the original rear bumper, how much does it cost including the paint works?

Thanks.

It's quite bad, i think modulo kit can't cover it, unless those kit will change the whole rear bumper like mugen (going to launch soon).

I will try to take the pic tomorrow and share it with you all.

Thank you.

No idea.
AFAIK, there is no genuine Mugen bodykit for the NHC. What's in the market right now is the Mugen-inspired BK.
Nevertheless, you'll see more custom-bks in the future as the car matures into the market smile.gif

The FC has now reached 11.1km/l
A bit better than last 10.6km/l

Using full synthetic oil now.. hmm.. smell it.. no different than mineral oil.
should there be a difference in smell between mineral and full synthetic oil?

our city low end torque very poor, i think it is better to use slightly thicker synthetic oil to improve low end performance.

Yeah. Of course. Rain is acidic. And it will corrode your car, which is metal smile.gif
Better to spend 30second of your morning rinsing la.


Added on July 1, 2010, 9:42 amDrove to KLIA yesterday and got a very good FC. Almost clocked 200km and it's not even near half tank yet. Now I know how all the CITY owner managed to have such good FC for those driving even 10% of your tank on highway.

Yup! No shock that people can can clocked 600km. At first for me 0-140kph needed to pump more petrol. Later on during the return journey, really could feel the car lighter, and 0-150kph can be achieved even unintentionally.

No need...if you look at your car bumper properly you can see the hole already there. Just need to punch out the cap only.

Let me know how much it cost you to do it. I might want to do it as well.

hi guys,

i just received my NHC 2 weeks ago, but now it's already back in the workshop...

the car engine is vibrating alot and it feels as if it was choking. sent it back and the honda tech said it's his first case like this...

would like to know if anyone has such experience like this too? i hope it's nothing major as i have been waiting for the car for 4 months... if they were going to do a major repair, can i request for a replacement car instead? it's very unfair for me to have a faulty car right?

need some advice.. thanks!

This is expensive.
V-Kool you can probably get it for RM2,000
Modulo BK (ABS) nowadays can get for RM1,500
That's just RM3,500. That's RM950 into the SA's pocket.

Hmm yours is the Conti or Goodyear tyres?

Yeah the dynamat does helps a lot on the noise reduction. I installed 9pcs.. 3 pieces on 4 doors. 3 pieces on the interior floorr, 2 pieces for front & back mudguards and 1 piece for the boot area..

Totally understand about the working overseas feeling, me too going often. But do check it out our forum at www.hc3msia.com when u do have time to come.

Using stock tires now bro so its bloody noisy. How's the dynamat doing for u? Assuming u installed on 4 doors as well as the front and/or rear tire arches.

Sure thing bro but always working overseas so I'm kinda always missing out on stuff at home  doh.gif

Really that noisy? I don't notice much noise from mine. In fact is it very quiet for me compared to local or korean cars.

Sent back to SC to ask them to check on the lock of the glove compartment. Shouldn't be a big issue...

Hmmm... maybe you don't drive fast or your music you on quite loud.. hehe..

Or you got used to the sound and don't notice anymore.. hehe

Maybe we can have a field test... get several types of cars (all city):
1. Changed Tyres without soundproofing
2. Changed Tyres with soundproofing
3. No tyre change without soundproofing
4. No tyre change with soundproofing

Then we can know the noise level.. hehe

Hmm yours is the Conti or Goodyear tyres?

Yeah the dynamat does helps a lot on the noise reduction. I installed 9pcs.. 3 pieces on 4 doors. 3 pieces on the interior floorr, 2 pieces for front & back mudguards and 1 piece for the boot area..

Totally understand about the working overseas feeling, me too going often. But do check it out our forum at www.hc3msia.com when u do have time to come.

Using goodyear ones...i think the conti ones would b better. i think the doors n mudguard areas are key points to install. alrites will check it out bro.

i often drive without music turned on and when u touch 60kmh and above u get a lot of road noise. imho i think the NVH on the current vios is better. maybe due to its tire brand and how much insulation it has comparing to the city. try opening your bonnet and look at the insulation HM uses to insulate the noise at the firewall and u'll understand why.

Totally agreed with u that the goodyear tyres indeed are the noisy ones.. Try changing to michelin PP2 or PS3.. Definately will be much much quiet..

Yup the doors and mudguards are key areas which generates the noise..

Funny thing is.. the stock goodyear tyres isn't grip tyres but generate much more noise than a grip tyres. haha.. yokohama a.drive r1 is grip tyres which generates noise but not as loud as the stock goodyears...

Anyway soundproofing really reduces the noise... hehe.. im a happy owner of dynamat..

Hmmm most of the accessories shop do sell and install soundproofing. You can do all the 4 doors. Whole cabin etc.. Roof also can but i didn't cause not much impact on the road noise.. roof is only affected when raining.

There are many brands out there in the market. So far i only trust the well-known brand which is either Dynamat or Accumat.

Those other brand of soundproofing materials, i dare not trust.. hehe

Whole cabin means they'll rip yr whole interior and put sound proofing material before putting back your interior. Seen them doing it to expensive cars too. Can cry seeing them tearing apart your car. There's a well known specialist which charge RM980 as their base price to sound proof your car but those are for extreme audiophiles

I think I'm fine with sound proofing the 4 doors and mudguard areas

Hey guys just wondering, is it just my car or your guys also notice that when driving the Honda City, the brake pedal feels a little hard to when u press.

Not so hard i mean, but you can notice it not that soft when u hit the brake pedal while driving.

Or something wrong with my brake pedal? Any comments?

err i think most B-segment uses torsion beam suspension. btw civic uses double wishbone rear setup which is by far more superior than macphersons in most jap c-segment

I installed the replica Illuminated Side Step but didn't connect the cable. Just need additional protection. I agree that visors makes the ride ugly and I can live without that. I had the sport pedal installed when the car was delivered.

err i think most B-segment uses torsion beam suspension. btw civic uses double wishbone rear setup which is by far more superior than macphersons in most jap c-segment

Yeap...B segment cars were made by manufacturers to be cheaper so they can tap into a larger market hence manufacturing costs have to be lowered. Can't do much abt that. Yeah civic uses a diff setup..check out the accord's multi link setup too. For the record, Toyota cars suspension setup isn't as complicated as Honda hence helping them to lower costs sweat.gif

I doubt so, it ish not listed under the honda malaysia website, and i have nvr heard that honda got partnership with locktech.... it ish purely a third party accessories..... i believe it was arranged by the SA personally one, mostly the SA ish greedy, tell u rm600 to install while outside rm3xx only, he can eat 50%.... shocking.gif shocking.gif shocking.gif shocking.gif

This is definitely a con job. Honda will never sanctioned promotions like this.
You can get it for RM300/RM350 (depending on your luck) in many other accessories shop.
Wow, that's a cool 100% profit margin made by the SA or SC Technician. I hope none of you got conned into this.

yeah..don't get conned. locktech only cost RM300-RM350 to install. RM650 is called promotion? LOL....if I were you, I will complain to honda malaysia about such thing.

Offered by service department person saying it's promotion. Give customer impression that Honda is actually providing the service with honda's value-added-service backing.

I think honda will need to take stern action on such thing because it gives bad image to honda when customer finds out about the truth. They paid so much money do ask people buy from honda for genuine part yet their staffs using this to their advantage.

I don't know about you but I personally do not trust those SA. Honda should make it known that anything offered by their SA that is not listed in their website or other official channel should be taken at buyer's own risk.

It is normal for all radio on whichever vehicle. You can change your radio but the problem will still persist. It is not the antenna problem. It is actually the problem of the broadcasting of our malaysian radio. You will know if you listen to Hitz.FM, many distortions and also cross radio broadcast. While Fly.FM got less of this distortions. Try different radio channel to confirm. I doubt it is radio problem.

So rest assured it is not the radio problem.

You cannot have animated text on the stock radio. The radio doesn't support this ability

You paying the car by full payment yourself or bank loan? Haven't settle downpayment? Unless you pay using direct cash to settle the downpayment or full payment, they will wait 2 days for the payment to go into their bank before they will release the car to you.

No problem listening to FM for me so far..haha.

Nah u cannot have the player show text as our FM radio in the car does not support Radio Data System (RDS) but there are other car brands who incorporate RDS into their cars...aih Honda Honda...

As for your mp3 player...it will show text if the mp3 u put into yr usb stick already has info stored into it. Same goes for yr ipod and I believe it will show the whole line of text once before stopping at the 1st character and u will only see the 1st few words of the song/artist/album if the name is too long haha sweat.gif doh.gif

Bro.. our host for the forum has gone DOWN for no particular reasons. So now we're in the midst of migrating and restarting our forum. Should be re-constructed newly coz we lost all our data from the previous webhost. So stay tune. By now you should be able to register back at www.hc3msia.com but the forum is offline and will be online on 18th July 11.30pm..

I pump 33 for front and back. Never follow the label due to i using wider tyres (205/50/R16). Yeah i check my tyre pressure every 2 weeks.

Well, that's true.. but the provider went bust on us without instantaneously and without warning. So it was a double whammy.
Any how, we're back online. We'll get up to speed soon enough

On another note.. Tukar Tayar Teh Tarik (TTT) Session tomorrow! Meet-up @ 11:15 AM - BHP Petrol, Klang Bound (Fed Hwy). Anybody interested? We'll likely to be heading to Ban Hooi Tyre smile.gif

Yep...best to pump in the morning before u go to work or something. I usually release hot air in my tyres if I have to pump in the afternoon before I pump and its good practice to bring your own tyre pressure gauge as their pumps are often a little off.

Guys ..... A question

When is the right timing to use D3 ? does it serve the same purpose as overdrive ?

Lets say if im driving at 100km/hr and want to overtake a car - correct to change to D3 ?

Or D3 is only used during low speed to high speed pickup (lets say 20km/hr yo 80km/hr)

Hi guys,

got myself the new city E 3 weeks ago... this is my 2nd city (i have another 07 model) love the car but dissappointed with honda's sales & service

asked my SA to install llumar crystal 4 tint b4 i got my car and waited 1 extra day for it... when i finally got my car, i noticed the beige plastic at the side of the rear windscreen had came off... tried pushing it back in but it just wont stay in... went back to the service center in hulu kelang(imavest) and they found out the bracket had cracked... they did not change it as they say it is caused by the tinted glass company... called my SA and he sent llumar's tech to check my car... he just glue back the bracket for me instead of helping me claim for a new one...

also, the rubber at the side of the door was inserted improperly by honda's service center when they took out that plastic to investigate... the rubber is now out of shape (folded and flatten) after being compressed when the door is shut

i'm really unhappy with this as the car is still new and i already have to live with a broken part inside the car... should i complain to Honda as my SA is not willing to help me claim this?

on top of all of these issues.. i suffered another problem... just 4 days after i got my new car, the engines loses power and vibrates alot... brought it back to honda service center again and they say need to leave the car there for 3 days to diagnose (sad)... turn out to be a simple ecu error which only require a reset... no harm done... nvm..

hope you guys can advice me on what i can do to claim for a replacement of the plastic and the door's rubber...

thank you very much!

There's no right timing to use D3 I guess.. it just depends on how you want your car to react

It's just to limit the gear to 3rd gear, or if you want pickup on higher speed, D3 might be the gear you want smile.gif It's also the same as downshifting if you are in gear 4 or 5 if you shift to D3

But don't shift to D3 or lower if you are driving very fast.. like 120km/h and above

(Correct me if I am wrong laugh.gif)

This brings me to a question.. if we reached a certain speed where the third gear is no longer in appropriate use, will the gearbox lock it up? Just in case we accidentally hit it or something

Well...bad luck for you then. The two problems you have is considered minor or cosmetic. The only way to fix is like glue back or try best to put is nicely. I do not think honda will change a new car for you. I mean..what else can they do? Change the whole door for the rubber issue? Well, you can try putting sticker in your car that says "my honda tak guna" might work. LOL...

Lol that explains why yr car is shaking. Holes on the road will do damage to yr suspension, rims and tyres.

I sent my car in for balancing n alignment during my 1000km service just to c if everything is fine. Since our roads got damn a lot of holes I take my car in for balancing n alignment at every service interval smile.gif

nopez....not shaky at all at 180km/h..just that when i presss the brake slightly hard ,then its vibrates like mad!!

When i am at 140km/h i feel the car is slow.Mayb i am used to it lah cause i travel alot.

But maybe it could be due to the fact that I have fixed 5 C-tech stablizer bars on the car.So its more steady at higher speeds.

Your tint is 3m's highest tint range? Receipt didn't say. Can pass through smarttag?

Today I saw a honda civic pass through tol, that guy had to wind down window and hold out the smarttag...what a waste. Nice car but spoiled the image.

If you're paying RM2k for the Llumar Diamond 6 + Llumar 2mil Front and Rear + Yuubi Lock, I think that's a good deal.
However, I do not know / or have not heard of Llumar's 2mil security tint. Before you fix that on, please make sure that the Warranty Card is from Llumar itself, and not from the shop who sells it to you. Should be 7 yrs if I'm not mistaken?

Btw, Llumar Diamond 6 has got a "light green" hue.

regarding the llumar diamond 6, i have ask her isit only diamond 6 at side mirror, then front and rear use other brand tint, then she told me not to worry that the front and rear also from llumar.
the spec is same like diamond 6, the diffrent is just 2mil instead of 6 mil.
she said she will provide me the warranty card with 10 years ~

Xtreme Power suppose to give you a 80% more light compare to normal bulbs. I used to have that in my previous ride. It is good for rainy days though.

Even the previous 2G (also known as 3G & 4G) does not have it. The peeps at Honda think that it isn't very useful. I admit I don't look at it all the time, but if there's something wrong.. I'd like to be able to watch the temp rising and fix it early instead of waiting for the light to pop up. Oh well..something we have to live with

Didn't know you can opt for leather seats with the NHC. You sure about that? I thought E/S range comes with the same water repellant seats.

That is just a simple job. The SA need to extend the validity and register the new vehicle. It takes less than a day to get it done.

Hi guys, I am about to get my NHC soon, I'm not familiar with window tinting, but the SA is offering me the RM500 discount voucher but is need to do in the service centre (i'm not really sure). What is the advice? Can take up this offer or do outside is better?

I know most SA are greedy and evil, they will say things that will confuse and make us feel uneasy after hearing it.

Things like:
1. if you do tinting outside, the shop might swap the tint paper to lower quality and cheat u.
2. if you do tinting outside, there might be a chance they scratch ur window, if do in Honda, got warranty. (is this true ar? they will change if they scratch it? i doubt so)
3. if you do locktech outside, got involve wiring, if anything wrong, no warranty, if do in Honda, whole car burn also got warranty. (again, is this true?)

i got the offer of RM380 for locktech from my SA. As for window tinting i'm not familiar with any brands and quality at all, i just want security too, she quoted me about RM1600 after the RM500 discount voucher i think.

Please advice.. thanks

I didn't know honda is offering tinting in their SC
even if they have, i still suggest u do it outside bcos u don't know what is the brand of flm they are using. furthermore they r not expertise in tinting, isn't it? there are alot more other brand like raytech, ecotint, etc.. that u may try in the market. they do provide warranty varying 5 - 10 years

in the first place, honda service centre does not offer accessories like tint or locktech one, whatever u get MUST BE the individual arrangement by ur SA with outside dealer......they may not even able to install the thing at the service centre itself becos it is not official...u may be ended up cheated by ur SA on this....whatever original official accessories must be listed under the honda website....

so question here if take up the offer or do outside is actually same, i believe all done by the same group of ppl, just that in between ur SA con u how much commission only....... shakehead.gif

nothing is 100% in this world. No doubt, there are also good SA in p1/p2. But the thing is, honda have stricter policy with their SA. They have after sales QA which client can fill up to complain. Therefore, the SA for honda is pressured to provide good service compared to p1/p2 where they only want to see sales figure. As for the free gifts promised by the SA, you can call up or sms one last time...tell him to better deliver you the promised gifts or else bad remark in the after sales questionnaire.

hehe...i made a mistake. My tint is actually ecotint. Using their highest range called raybarrier. Hence the mixed-up. 10 years warranty.

windscreen front and back = raybarrier
side windows = raybarrier + 4mil security tint

10 years warranty.

Hi guys, just need to ask something. I just noticed my windscreen got a small crack. Didn't even realize when/how it cracked until it rained one day, and due to the crack got bulge a bit, it made loud noise when wiper wiped on it. And after a while, my wiper got damaged a bit because the crack is quite sharp and it tore the wiper a bit. Below are the pictures:
Attached Image

Just want to ask, do I need to be worried if the crack is this small? ie will it spread later and endanger me if I don't replace it now? If I replace it now, how much will it cost? I passed my 10k service already, and I also didn't take windscreen insurance, so, need to pay this myself if I replaced it cry.gif

lol...i am suspecting the same thing also. I mean...go to SG to fix all the tinting and other stuffs. Total kiasuness.

Everyday drive also got risk to gearbox lah...then how about keep the car at home for viewing only?

Plus, I still am puzzled by how generally people always fear about gearbox spoiling. Why don't they worry about other things like the piston or engine or ecu or others. Those are also expensive to replace. Why only afraid gearbox spoil? Is there any statistics that actually show gearbox being the most prone to failure in a car or something?

My friend's 10 year old hyundai car...everything spoil except gearbox... lol...

you know..if the service center person b**** about bodykit then it means he/she don't know anything about car. Ask for someone else to service you.

If you did not pay the extra windscreen insurance then it's not too late. Ask agent if you can add it now. If cannot add already then wait until next year renewal add. Claim insurance after that.

Meanwhile, if the crack is not deep then you can let it be. It won't spread. If it starts to spread, then quickly go to those windscreen specialist. They will apply some special chemical glue that will stop the crack spreading. It should not cost more than RM150.

For me I use paddle shift more often in D. Most often I come across really super slow cars hogging the road so i summon the vtec power by shifting down immediately to overtake XD

Yeap, after checking Prataboy post and compare with Kindaichi's, I can say almost 99% it's the same person. Read back what kindaichi's bragging about, then you'll noticed that Prataboy also bragged.

Ok guys, some info to share.

Motevo Honda City 2009 (GTV-HC2) Factory fit Car Multimedia and Navigation system. Preinstalled with Mapking. Capable of running Papago.

RM2650. If can get at least 4 installations even cheaper.

The Motevo website has yet to add this product info. I've seen the product catalogue in the shop though. Sorry, didn't take down the specs.

I wanna ask a question about iPhone with the NHC ICE. When viewing the Song name/info in the LCD Display, does the name of the song scroll if the song name is long?

yeah after your first service can start let your engine run in a little bit. i think the vtec kicks in at about 150km/h at around 5k rpm? and in splits of seconds it goes up to 170km/h.

I accidentally rev to the red line before when in S mode sweat.gif But I think they got some rev cut mechanism to protect the engine because it never went up the red line when I was pretty damn sure it should have.

Ur NHC will become more stiff and stable during cournering. brows.gif
The concept of a strut bar is intended on reducing the flex between the front strut towers during hard cornering loads. By reducing this flex, it allows suspension points to remain undisturbed, allowing for the suspension to do it's job properly. This often gives the drive a feeling of increased stability and improved turning response and the advantage of anti-roll bar is very clear - it suppresses body roll on bump or during cornering, but does not deteriorate ride comfort in straight line.

Btw, all how much? Ultra Racing? biggrin.gif
