I want this also (haven't got my car yet but don't care. Haha.)

Anybody installed this in their car?

So far this is the best looking DVD/GPS head unit compared with the rest and is quite affordable as well. I'm looking at the non-GPS version, and the optional reverse camera unit.

Any thought? I'm just worried about the sound quality since I think the default HU is quite decent already.

Oh thanks for the feedback, that's what I'm scared of as well. I doubt there's any aftermarket HU than can fit nicely with our City eh..

Bro, can you check ur PM too

Xin, I'm quite aware of the AUX and USB will no longer work (the HU have SD card and mini USB so that's fine) but if the sound quality is worst that our stock HU then I won't bother with it lah. Haha.

Refer to this video, it's pretty easy to do.

Congrats!! Still waiting for mine.. huhu..

Congrats on your new car, give it some time for the engine to break in. After your first service you will gradually see the FC will improved.

I think I waited for a month already but they promise the car can come out before Raya, so most likely next week.

I think that's not bad for city drive and yours is only 3 weeks old. You can probably get 450km++ after a few services with your driving condition.

You can change to a better tyre (more expensive) or invest in some soundproofing to the car wheel arch to reduce the noise of the road/tyre.

Don't think SC will be able to do much about that.. haha. They probably say it's normal.

Try here http://www.facebook.com/pages/Autofoam/193456474019263

There's a special package to do soundproof the wheel arch. You can give Desmon a call for quote. He might suggest to autofoam your car but I don't think it's a good idea since that thing is permanent. Just regular soundproofing is enough I think.

Cannot wait edy.. haha.

Where you plan to tint? Didn't get the discount voucher from your SA eh? Eh how come no floor mat?

Let us know how much he quote later Plan to do the same to my car as well.


Should ask for voucher oo.. haha.. Usually they give like RM300 discount. Tint Master i never heard before, which SA did you go btw?

Oh rubber one, I thought original car mat. LOL.. maybe try at market place, I know got someone selling custom made 3M rubber car mat. A bit pricey though.

So many plan to add to my car when I got it I lost track already.. hahaha.

Waa should ask for tint discount. Hehe. For Tint Master, how much for the whole car?

Bro, I think if you install K&N drop in air filter, it will improve the pick up a little bit. Maybe you can try?

If you put the car in S, you don't have to use paddle shift if you don't want to, it will upshift for you but at a higher RPM compare to normal D mode.. so you get a bit more power. But once you use the paddle shift, you'll have to upshift/downshift manually like a manual car. Except you don't have to press clutch la. Haha.

It's fool proof so say you're doing 100km/h and accidentally downshift to second gear, it won't engage the gear until the speed is safe to do so.

I haven't got my car yet but this is all from what I gather around the old Honda city forum. Hehe.

Oh didn't know that. That's cool. Hehe.

Getting my car next Thursday..

I have been wondering, what makes you all choose City and not other car Vios, Preve, Forte, Inspira, Jazz, Fiesta etc etc..?

I think the new City hard to get any discount, most you can get is probably tint voucher. I bought mine from Global Amity since it's nearer to my place. Hehe.

Haha can't wait lah..

Too much Vios? Well that's a valid reason haha. But why not choose Forte, Preeve, Inspira, Fiesta, Selphy, Jazz.

Any specific reason you pick City?

Hoping to get my car today.. Huhuhu.. oo JPJ why you so slow.

Just wondering, how much value is the stock E spec tyre if I want to trade in and change to a different one? I've read a lot of people complaining the car not very stable at high speed so thinking of changing to a wider rubber.

Or wait till next tyre change?

Thanks mate!

Yeah I never plan on going up to 17", the tyre price alone is enough to make me stay way. Haha. I'm not worried about handling through corners but driving at 140km/h @ highway. If the car is stable at that speed with the stock tyre then I'll just stick with the stock tyre for now.

Maybe I can drop by at Jeff when I visit my friend in Shah Alam after raya. Thanks for the contact.

EDIT : Actually any new City owner tried to go up to 140km/h yet with the stock tyre? Or all still at break-in period.. haha.

Keep your RPM below 3k and you should be fine. Speed doesn't really matter I suppose.

BUT there is a different method to break in your car from what I heard. Basically it's the other way around, instead of slowly keeping the RPM below 3k, you basically need to rev it up to redline. Haha.

True or not I dare not say but you can read about it here http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

Got my car! Hehehe

Regarding the boot alarm thing, I tried to do it myself but the cable is already unplugged.. so its either Honda already fixed this for the new FL or the guy that install Connex on my car did it for me.

I'll do a test to confirm later.

I tried driving up to 140km/h earlier, can feel the car sway a little bit especially if there's another car/truck drive passed mine. Maybe really need a wider rubber.. hmm

Lock your car, wait for about 1 minute then try to open the boot with the key. It should trigger the alarm.

Wah so fast already, when you did your 1k service did you change the oil as well?

Wow so expensive? Which brand are you installing? Is it similar to this? http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1694512&hl=

As long as there's no cutting wire your warranty should be fine I suppose. Might want to confirm with you SA first though.

I'm planning to do mine next week before the long journey to Kelantan.. hoho.. doesn't feel right if they didn't change the oil though since I thought usually there will be traces of metal pieces in the engine oil from during the first 1k mileage. We should be able to ask them to change oil right?

If CASKA sure expensive.. huhu. Not really sure why though..

My trip this Friday.. haha. The trunk tray I got mine from Honda.. I'm sure you can find other at accessories shop, even kedai abang sure got one. But the original Honda one is nice since it fits the boot nicely. Got logo some more

Hey I got the same problem, I think its due to the side mirror, it doesn't sit flush with the door frame. Mine got a gap about 3 - 4mm, maybe I can try and fill the gap with 3m tape. But it feel solid to me so I'm not so worried about that coming off.

Got mine from Honda @ RM250. I think you can get better price outside, it should cost around RM180 - RM250 with installation.

Have you try using scratch remover? Or just regular wax?
