Hi bro. I drive a honda civiv 1.8 fl .. At the same time i have bold 2011 model. So far no prob for the bold despite some ppl having extra sound here and there. But for the civiv? Let me Produce the list of problems since i use the car since 2009

1: difficult to open up the fuel lid , resend to sc after 1 week
2: hissing sound after 110 km/h . I can assure u that u dont have this prob in Bold or in my prev waja
3: brake judder at 60k km ( ppl own civic knows that this is due to low quality brake pad ) . Can only be fix with 3rd party brake pad
4: belakang right bearing problem at 70k km. Replaced
5: belakang left bearing prob at 80k km . Replaced. ( im lucky this prob appear during warranty, most ppl get it immediately after 100k km, my friend civic last week the right front wheel lock due to this prob ). I dont get bearing prob in my prev waja. Sold it off at 180k km
6: u open up right rear window and drive above 80km/h and u can hear loud heli sound. Yes i know many can u can hear this sound in many other cars ...but the sound is so damn fricking loud that it can pierce your eardrum
7: for pre facelift civic, honda knows that for 1.8 model had power steering host prob since 2006, they only did the recall in 2009!
8: i can list all civic fd potential prob but i better dont list it all because ppl may think it is worst then proton.  Conclusion is, qc prob is not exclusice to proton !

If u all dont believe me u can check out my honda service record in macinda honda kuantan... Pm me for my car plate number

wait till your bold 100k milage then compare notes lor..

honda city using short gear ratio perhaps

theoretically cvt would win over a 5AT.. if weight same, and same engine with same engine poweroutput..

then based on what? i believe kerb weight, engine output is fairly consistent. what we are trying to discuss here is the powerloss, which doesnt make sense

just be frank la.. 6% powerloss is too good to be true.


Added on March 31, 2012, 9:59 pm

and similar powerloss.
*
no need similar power loss, remember cvt can keep the engine constant rpm i.e. maximum power throughout acceleration, while fixed gearbox, you cannot keep the engine at maximum power cos engine rpm is dependent on car speed.. it will be see-sawing up and down the rev range according to gear change..

Still wondering where u get city century sprint officially from honda stated 11.5 scnd coz its not tally with other country same car, same weight century sprint.
*
just for reference.. smile.gif

should be over 12secs if auto (manual is 11+secs)
QUOTE
The new City has different engines developed for different markets round the world; the one offered in Singapore is the 1.5-litre i-VTEC engine mated with a five-speed transmission. It is capable of a power output of 120 bhp at 6,600 rpm and a linear torque curve that peaks at 4,800 rpm with 145 Nm. Taking 12.2 seconds to reach 100 km/h from rest, it remains a little above 2,000 revs after - good for fuel consumption.

VT3 max torque load is 220Nm @ 2500 rpm. Hence the 205Nm @ 2,000-4,000 rpm of the CFE.
*
i wonder what;s the max power rating? at what rpm?

is is possible to increase engine HP without increasing the torque?

HP limit is at 122 Kw while cfe 103 kw only. still more can be squeze. only torque is the problem now which is at 220 nm limit only.
*
it's turbo, the torque curve is shaped by ECU programming controlling the boost.. you dont really think got such thing as natrual flat torque curve from 2000-4000rpm right?

that means we can arrage it to according to what we want? ok.

yeah.. biggrin.gif (provided the internals can take reliabily the extra boost at high rpm ).. to produce that power at high rpm..
