QUOTE(harmonics3 @ Aug 7 2012, 09:48 PM) To those who have been driving the new Civic on the highway, care to comment on the NVH as compared to previous generations? Can hear the radio without turning up the volume at > 110km/h? Never try the ex-version civic. But the tyres noise was loud on high speed compare to altis. Slight better than M3 but not as good as t.altis. Have to admit the elantra and 408 NVH were good. Anyway, there is setting in player to fine tune the volume smartly based on your vehicle speed

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Aug 9 2012, 10:00 PM) GY NCT5 are crap tyres. Damn noisy and poor road grip. If you claim your car is quiet, then its because of NVH. Not the tyres. Change the tyres if you value safety. U can exchange for almost zero cost or just pay a small amount for Continental CC5. Much better tyres, good wet grip and more quiet than the NCT5. which shop accept 4 used tyres (2 weeks drived) exchanged with minimum top up from GY NCT5 to CC5? any idea the $ top up?

Sent for 1000km service this morning which took around 1 hour to inspect and nothing else. The overall FC was 12km/l with major city used.
Heard from SA the coming DVD navi will be RM2k+, personally will not touch if the overall price above RM3k.

QUOTE(MeToo @ Aug 13 2012, 04:15 PM) OH didnt u know that only those who own the car can comment? Anyway, 2012 Civic no good lah... I heard its underpowered compared to the excellent K5  ---------------- On Topic : Cant bring myself to accept the outlook/new design of the Civic, too close to the City le (which I think looked awesome when they first launched it) I've tested K5 & sonata 2.0, the civic definitely was the winner in terms of acceleration

QUOTE(MeToo @ Aug 13 2012, 04:27 PM) Are you sure bro? Cause I was told by K5 owners that their car top the D-segment performance wise... Oh well, looking at the specs I reckon Civic really does pwn the K5... Anyone came across any bodykit to make the Civic more aggressive looking? Go and test drive both, floor the pedal, you will find the fact.

QUOTE(mokhzaini @ Aug 13 2012, 04:59 PM) so now they got DVD/ navi to be installed by the centres. so i suppose by getting that, our civics will be more or less like the navi variant. what this dvd/navi does? got back camera like the navi variant? official product? or it just aftermarket product being installed by the technicians just to avoid any warranty issue afterwards? From SA, its Navi come with reverse camera somethings like an OEM version where believed the vendor has strong cabling with these Honda branches. I'm waiting the SA to provide me the picture since day 1

QUOTE(MeToo @ Aug 13 2012, 05:26 PM) Depends on what kinda unit... if OEM de usually its some CHina brand. for 5k, you can buy a Pioneer top range 7" touch screen HU (2.8k), plus a navi box (800), plus reverse cam (200). Installation probably 200 (more then enough). So about 4k..... Yes, any price above RM3k (include installation) is a big No for me.

QUOTE(ExpZero @ Aug 13 2012, 05:53 PM) Hi all, my SA quote me windscreen cover rm5k for rm750, anyone here taking this offer? Just wonder why you need RM5k coverage, for me RM2k is good enough to balance the risk of occurance which far better than nothing. I would suggest to go for disaster coverage especially flood to divert the risk if you have buffer to go on. My2cents!

QUOTE(zweimmk @ Aug 14 2012, 06:54 PM) It works good to reduce vibration and tighten the handling. But as far as noise reduction is concerned, unless you go for the ultimate package, you won't notice the difference that much. The roof would be nice to soundproof though as when it rains, it sounds like those zinc roof... Pitty Patta Pitty Patta, damn noisy. There will be some weight added to the car after you foam though, but it's an increase of about 3 to 6kg? depending on what you do If you really keen to do it, I recommend you drive your car for 1 month first, then go in autofoam to feel the difference. Thanks bro, my target mainly on annoying road/tyre noise where you advise to go for ultimate package. Do you know the estimate cost to this package or good deal? BTW, would warranty void from HM and FC since it has slight increase in kg?
