QUOTE(econ @ Jun 23 2011, 01:43 PM) Hmmm... isn't the engine is turned off (RPM is Zero) during auto stop and only the blower is working? the compressor only activated when the car is engine is running (RPM is not Zero) Now I'm confused actually a bit contradicting. in the brochure, page 5, it is stated, Auto Idle Stop* * Engine does not stop in particular conditions.  but in the owner's manual, page 339, it is stated "The engine stops..."

QUOTE(econ @ Jun 23 2011, 02:42 PM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « The engine does stop when the Autostop is on, that's why the RPM is Zero. When it's cruising on Battery alone, the engine cuts the fuel supply (Low RPM) but it's still running  this is much better explaination. Honda Malaysia should change the explaination on their brochure... using ur statement

QUOTE(psyeo @ Jun 23 2011, 04:31 PM) not really solid white, it is pearl white too, but it is whiter hmm ok, but most importantly, the bodykit color doesn't run far from our original color. a lil bit concern here coz am planning to get this bodykit. otherwise, we need to spend couple of hundred bucks for repaint.

QUOTE(econ @ Jun 24 2011, 09:47 PM) I'm not sure which vkool series you use but my vkool elite works fine with Smart Tag  It's the 3M that gives me a little bit of headache  Hope you are not pulling my leg  will give it a try next time. And you mean the rear view mirror right  I was thinking why would someone place the Smart Tag at the back while I have to drive so near to the boom gate for the signal to get through  sorry if i confused u ... what i meant was placing the smart tag on the highlighted area .. from the inside.

btw, was on the hiway last weekend and behind a big truck, before i could over cut this d@mn truck, a big stone flown on my windscreen. the impact was very loud and luckily, only a tiny chip and no sign of cracking.
since i did not cover the windscreen insurance, should I buy now? i bought my car in Apr, meaning to say, will the insurance company accept the coverage if i buy now...which will only valid until April 2012.
