Do not over-rev your engine.

Do not floor accelerator pedal from stationary

Do not hard brake/sudden brake.

You have to let the engine break-in. Try to stay below 120 km/h and do not go over 3000rpm before the 1000km service.

Why? Read this.
*
seem like im doing the right thing.....its the first i drive less than 80km/h on the empty road.... sweat.gif

There is needless to exaggerate the engine break-in period.

IMO, the engine will be fine as long as you don't floor the acceleration pedal, sudden rev'ing of the engine and driving your ride roughly.
*
what mean floor the acceleration pedal??? mean press the acceleration pedal to the max??

Yes, I face the same issue too. I thought it's due to my car high rpm when started up. Will check it up during my 1K 1st service. Anyone solved this issue already?
*
i though that will happen to most of the cars....and it will drop back to around below 1k after a short while ba....or maybe u can ask during ur 1st service....

hmm..ytd drove my NHC to genting, first time.....quite fun though....but have to use S mode to go all the way...

I feel that it's not normal as the engine is quite loud for the first 1-2 mins. S-mode all the way with the use of paddle shift ? How's the FC like ?
*
yea....S mode all the way with using paddle shift.....surprisingly the FC its not that high, using less than 1 bar to reach to the top.....but the FC rolling down from hill is higher....this i got abit not understand edi doh.gif

Huh? Are you sure?  hmm.gif
It's uphill. Isn't it obvious you need to pump more fuel to get the car moving? And pumping more petrol means higher FC.
*
QUOTE(choon hon @ Aug 30 2010, 12:44 AM)
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.
*
yea, that sound logic...that why im quite surprise that once i reach to the top and i look at the fuel meter....it only drop about 1 bar.......

Has used up my 2nd full tank. Total mileage is about 520kms but I'm quite light-footed on this 2nd tank.

Strangely when I filled up fully, total only 33 litres. Before I filled up, the mileage to go is showing 0 already. I thought City full tank is 42 litres. Weird.
*
i only manage to go up to 520 with driving from my hometown to PJ with not more than 110km/h and another half tank of city driving.......if all time city driving i only manage to go up to around 400km +- .....

and yesterday is the first time i experience my car with 5 ppl and full or luggage....its like abit stressful for the engine to do the pickup but after that im easily to go up to 120km/h in federal highway... laugh.gif thumbup.gif

white fumes? Correct me if I am wrong but that is the sign of water humid in your ekzos. This usually happen when you cold start the car. Especially after rain or in cold places.
*
according to my fren.....early in the morning if ur car has the sign of water humid, it is a good sign to show that ur engine is in good condition......
if u wan to test it, after start ur engine early in the morning, put a piece of paper at the ekzos there...this is all according to my fren, and i cannot confirm how true it is.... doh.gif

vTEC. Some of you might disagree with this. But the power in after 3rd is greater in 5G. At first the 4G was in advantage, but after awhile, the 5G was leading 1 car away. Well, but there's always flaw in all these comparison (driver, launching etc). Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that. 5G pick up is not as rough as people thinks smile.gif
*
no doubt NHC pickup is abit slow....but when 3rd gear come in, the car start flying edi......but the pickup is not a problem as most of the time is city driving and not racing, so the steady pickup = not that much fuel burn during pickup..... laugh.gif

my poor NHC backside got bang by dunno which ******* who dunno how to drive 1 when i park my car somewhere......few scratches on by body kit and the a little bit damage right below the number plate there.... doh.gif

the Honda SA told me the package yesterday were rebates RM 500 and RM 1k V-kool window shield 4 mil (ori price @ Rm2.2k)...
Kns!! i booked it on the spot at Saturday and today called me again said she calculate wrong... she cannot giv me rebates Rm 500 if not she will earn nothing... what should i do now!?


Added on September 20, 2010, 10:02 pmI feeling want to cancel the booking but she told me 75% booking fees refundable only...
*
think that u can argue with the SA.....as what she promise ytd and today she say she cant do it for u.....as u are happy with the rebates she offer u then oni u book on the spot, right? but then why today she say she cant make the RM500 rebates and u cant get back ur booking fees.....
