Hi All, I guess it would be good if we can all share our problems faced in the NHC so that others could have ideas on them if they do face the same issues.
1) Aircond idling too frequent/loud especially when the car is not moving
SC: It's normal, idling is not so frequent when car is moving & as long as there's no sound like tik-tak tik-tak
2) High rpm when car starts up in cold
SC: It's normal if it's between 1-2k rpm & as long as it drops down to the normal idling rpm within couple of mins
3) Rear bumper out of alignment
SC: Can be fixed but only by selected SC, the SA provided me 3 names but yet to get it fixed
4) When open boot, alarm not triggered/no sound
SC: Fixed/adjusted
5) Car swayed to left/right when travelling above 90kph or when passing thru bus/lorry
SC: Fixed by doing alignment/balancing
6) Car feels very floaty when travelling above 100-110kph
SC: Fixed after 1k service (not sure is after alignment/balancing is done or they readjust my tyre pressure to be lower)
7) Driver side tweeter out of alignment/pop up - push it back & it's fixed at the position now. Suspect this happens when the SA tears out the plastic sheets on the door panel when I took my car
8) Car pickup rough
SC: Try to use RON97
I just discovered 4 more issues:
1) All 4 discs are rusty including the surface (see picture 1)
2) Water spray on windscreen not spraying at the right place - tried to adjust but not working
3) Driver side panel loose/out of alignment (see picture 2) - this is definitely not normal as the passenger side is fine
4) Front mud guide is loose (see picture 3 & 4) - is this normal?
Not sure whether above can be fixed
1.) It is that the compressor that running during idle and hence causes the noise, dont tell me there is a car that has a compressor that dont produce noise.
2.) mine is usually 1k and will drop in a min time if its too cold out there. btw, this dont bother me at all, as long as it is not too far to abnormal.
3.) Rear bumper - as i mentioned, this is normal, out of 10 maybe i can see 9 cars are like this. including mine.
4.) This is the case for accord and civic too, just tell your SC to connect the wire will do. or you can DIY.
5.) Car sway - yours is fixed, but i feel mine is relatively stable even doing 120. so... for this size's sedan, this is the case for my friend's vios too. so if u want a very good stability or equivalent, get a bigger sedan as this size's sedan dont suit your needs. try camry, accord, M6, 5 series and so on. U might need a bigger car.
6.) as above, some might suggest you to install UR bars and it does help, but i reckon u might need a bigger car again.
7.) No comment on this, it dont happen to mine or any that i know of.
8.) Car pickup rough? yeah try Ron97 and upgrade your engine oil to semi-syn or fully syn. mine is now better after upgraded to semi-syn after doing my 5k service and doing better than previous mineral oil.
Your additional issues.
1.) Please see if whose car disc is not rusty. don show me a new car that just come out from the factory.
2.) Consult your SC.
3.) Yeah not normal. send it to your SC and get it fixed.
4.) Try tightening the nuts on the mud flap. Or suggestion - install bodykit
my POV, u might have gotten the lemon's car, sorry bout that.
Have you test drive the car before purchasing?
I notice you only grudge about the car ... I have never seen you giving some positive comments on the car at all.
it is quite obvious that you dont like the car much, maybe u should considering changing car? No offense.
My motto: Be grateful for what you have.
