google for hc3msia forum. Sure can get. Then in there under D-I-Y projects. I think cannot post other forum links here.

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.

wow...city driving can get 17km/l...really not that easy leh. Unless you can constantly drive at 60-80km/h and don't shift gear much.

2k rpm at 100km/h how can consider guzzling petrol? Most cars especially the local cars (auto also) will go at 3k rpm at 100km/h leh....

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.

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.

it's the ECU adjusted to the driving style. First full tank is always very low.

bro, i thought you are going to change whole set of rim and tyre? If yes, please sell me your old rims/tyre at a good price. Please...please....

my engine idle above 1k rpm...around 1.2k...anyone know how to fix this? Reset ECU?

Cause the car is drinking too much petrol now. Full tank only last around 390km. But it's almost 90% city drive.

oh..that means my mileage is fine leh? I get 390km only if I drive with light foot. If drive more agressive, only get around 360-370km.

ok ok...like that I ask about this idling when I go service next.

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...

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
Two way

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

you need to post a picture to let people judge. Sometimes it can be fixed.

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.

sorry...my mistake...that hole is not to fog lamp...it's for towing...

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.

mine is goodyear lol...at 80kmh, the wind noise is more noisy than the tyre noise.

Where to get dynamat sound proofing? How much? Can get at HT auto?

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.

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.
