haha u are wrong man.

yes i collected the car already.

close to 10am this morning.

SA not bad, explain everything clearly abt the car, and let me have a lot of time to inspect the car as well.

haha got take photo somemore with the manager there.  biggrin.gif  haha SA said this is the standard procedure when they hand over the car to customer.

spent quite sometime there checking everything and explanation before drove off the car.

after drove off, bump petrol @ caltex, haha, the car attracts attention from the station staff. he came over to ask if this is a new car.  tongue.gif  then told him i want to pump ron95, haha he sort of trying to ask me to pump ron97 since it is new. haha but i found no difference, won't want to spoil the car for good food, else later he cannot take worse food. haha

reach home abt 12pm++. then park my car at home, and went out for lunch and shopping with my two friends who accompany me to collect car, and i drove my NHC not insight. haha because no cobra connex yet, scare to drive out. and just reached home now only.

then call up my SA to help me book the part for cobra connex, next week the sales manager from cobra will send staff to come and train the SC to install the connex for my car. becos the SC here nvr install connex for insight yet. need to do on job training for them.

until now, nvr touch my car yet. haha

got other thing to attend to. will have it leave the car alone first haha.

sharing another tip that works well for me - the SAs are very concerned about the Honda post-customer satisfaction survey. So I told my SA before my car arrived... pat him on the back and said "if you take care of me well & give me the car w/no issues by your committed deadline, I'll take care of you on the survey."

He took care of me, so I'm returning the favor by giving him a good survey response. Also got his branch mgr's email and will drop the mgr a word of praise.

Stuff like this doesn't take much time from us + little effort, but it goes a long way to these guys. If you make your 'deal' upfront, the SAs will know what to do + more incentive to be super nice to you smile.gif

bro. Mr.DC, what happened to order? delay?  shocking.gif tot u mentioned before u will get it in May?


Added on April 21, 2011, 11:16 am

tot one bro here shared the checklist on earlier post, u can check it out. generally i think car itself should be ok one because it is new. should not have any prob.

just make sure the comestic condition is still in tip top, no single scratch etc.

and make sure the documentation the engine no, chasis no etc matched. else later u will have big prob.
*
OK bro, i will check everything as per your advise... Thank you so much rclxm9.gif

this is exactly what i was expecting but they cover the whole rectangle area with black plat board.

all i can say, regardless what color, if you dont take care of it, it will leave stains and water mark.
just apply paint protecting or wax, and your problems and worries are solved.
mine if pearl white and no problem at all. wash once a week.
*
I can say that white suits the Insight car very much…and if you do a simple DIY branded polish at least 2 weeks once…( I use 3M polish )….stains or dust normally don stick up much so do not worry….Another good things is , you wont feel much hot under hot sun compare to other dark colours for our country climate….

it is not necessary. from a lot of website, u can see recommendation not to change engine oil so early for new car.  biggrin.gif

If the CKD car i think it should be okay if 1k they do not change any oil cos the oil should be add here during installation , but i'm a bit worry about CBU car which brought here from japan.... Is it ok ???

QUOTE(infinitium @ May 2 2011, 12:15 AM)
that's part of the reason. before first oil change, engine parts are brand new w/little coating on them... longer u drive. the more lubricants in the engine oil (rich in molybdenum, a mineral) will coat the parts properly, leading to better FC.

this is called "breaking in" the engine. newer engines don't need such a long time to break in, vs older engines.
*
correct me if i'm wrong , for first 1000km service... service advisor told me they would not change oil....

so breaking in the engine will happen only at after 5000km service interval right??? icon_rolleyes.gif

ya, i do agree the often auto-stop can be quite irritating something especially during jam.  sweat.gif

Yeah me too... Honda should consider to enable all this ECO functions when should press ECON mode , otherwise it should be normal drive style..... It really worries me for auto start/stop many times when we stuck in heavy jam sweat.gif
