QUOTE(blu3hamm3r @ Feb 18 2019, 11:02 AM) Mines switch auto jumped to outside air and cannot switch back inside air. Unless stop n restart engine, then only can switch on back to inside air. Ixxit same like me? Mines also 2013 from Japan. And it take me spend spend RM4K+ to change the whole aircon compressor. Mine totally cant switch back to recycle air. Need to change compressor at honda rm5100.

QUOTE(blu3hamm3r @ Feb 19 2019, 08:36 AM) Same to me too. I change at SHAH ALAM 3S center. How much it cost you? I changed tensional bearing first..hoping its not the compressor..cost rm700.. Then a week later totally no cold air n switched to green fresh air. Sent back to service yesterday. Rm5100 for compressor. Ordered n only can send in by Monday. 1 week hot air! If this batch is problematic, then should change for free...if in usa...but malaysians too few buy hybrid n too weak to fight in court.

QUOTE(blu3hamm3r @ Feb 19 2019, 08:39 AM) Yes. For those who bought the 1st batch from Japan have 5 years warranty. Which is purchase at 2013. After 5 years if aircon spoiled need to "jiak ka ki" liao. This Hybrid civic aircon really have manufacturing defect or design defect. 5 out of 10 cars all having same problem. my car 6 years old but change compressor  twice already. The air con is made to last 6 years. My hybrid will be 6 years in march 3. Died Saturday feb 16...on highway. Lucky still can drive car back from ipoh. According to odometer, my car clocked 253k km...12.5 malaysian years (20k a year)..;( This post has been edited by Twins10: Feb 19 2019, 08:55 AM

QUOTE(blu3hamm3r @ Feb 19 2019, 09:17 AM) You only 1 week, i drive 1 month with hot air until i betahan then only go change. Some more need pay deposit to order, after part arrive only send car to service center to change. U know how i drive my car during the 1 whole month? I drive slowly and try to remain below 3000rpm. When RPM over 3000 it will automatic switch to outside air. Then i need to put signal n stop aside. Switch off my engine and start again, then only have cold air again. City drive still ok, but when drive highway, i need to wind down the window all the way. When raining day lagi kaolat...no aircon, whole wind screen full frogging. I had go different service center let different ppl check, try my luck hopefully can repair without change the whole compressor but too bad. All service center system linked. Honda die die want to dig rm5100 from my wallet. How many days to change? Honda says send in monday morning...collect by wed or thurs..4 days needed.

Just a rough calculation...saved rm25k in fuel..253k km...spend back rm10k for repairs... still save rm15k for battery n dont know what else coming......but market value for this hybrid is at least 15k lower than non hybrid...end up zero savings...shiok sendiri...green car.

I read the usa car guide... air con should last 10 to 12 years. Ours die 3 to 5 years....and replacement compressor only warranted for 6 months or 10000km! Not even 1 year.
How long is the hybrid battery replacement warranted? I read 8 years... anyone knows?

QUOTE(blu3hamm3r @ Feb 20 2019, 08:15 AM) The money u spend for continue service in HCH is more than u buy the battery by ur own. Imagine you continue service at HCH for 8 years! Firest 8 years with honda service but no big items. Then on 6th year compressor problem. Battery warranty by 2021. If I replace battery after 2021 another 8 years warranty or 1 year only?

QUOTE(ewe_chai @ Mar 1 2019, 09:55 PM) This morning my ac suddenly turn into "outside air" mode and the ac air come out from vent is not cool. During that time, i was drive in raining highway and never gone through any sediment water road. I attempt to switch it back to "internal circulation" mode from "outside air" mode and it is not helping. Hence, i just turn off the ac mode and ac fan. Aftet few minutes, turn it ON back everything and it resume. Luckliy the error is not reproducible. HowI old yr car? Hybrid or normal? Mileage? Still under warranty?

QUOTE(ewe_chai @ Mar 2 2019, 06:39 AM) 6 yrs old + hybrid + mileage app 110k + no more warranty and only warranty on ima battery (8 yrs). Still service in Honda Mine also same age. At first it flipped to green. Then after a while, We managed to turn on Orange n air con. Less than a week later, it totally get stuck in green n no cold air. Compressor dead. Mine still at honda service. Collecting Sunday. This air con has a life. I estimate 5.5 to 6 years on hybrid regardless of mileage. Note that new compresor only has 6 months or 10000 km warranty. Outside mechanic not sure.

QUOTE(SteadyPana @ Mar 27 2019, 04:46 PM) From my best knowledge, only certain SC have. Suggested you to call Honda Malaysia first to find out the confirmed information before you touch base with the SC via a phone call. This will save a lots of your time. Never know about this till today. Wonder if it cost my air con failure. Will try to find out from sc.

QUOTE(gma.bestdeal @ Apr 3 2019, 02:58 PM) hi guys, My civic hybrid car broke down last week, it showed IMA lights and brake warning lights. I went to Honda SC in Klang Valley and they detected the Inverter Unit Intelligent parts no: 1B200-RW0-000 was failed to function. The service advisor at Honda said that it's better to do it outside of SC as the price would be tremendously high and they can only give a 6-month warranty. We really need and love this car as my wife use it to pick up our son at school. Do you guys have any idea where to find the part and to repair in Klang Vallet? Your help is much appreciated.  I just changed my aircon rm6k n now fearing this. Battery is not a prob. This post has been edited by Twins10: Apr 3 2019, 05:07 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(lionelchia1986 @ Apr 17 2019, 12:00 PM) My civic hybrid show "check charging system", SC quoted me rm15k for repair. Well my loan tenure is 9 years , I still have 3 more years to finish paying. If I sell to secondhand car dealer, I'm offered rm35k ( have to repair first). If you were me, will you repair it and sell, get another petrol car like honda jazz or repair it and continue to use it fearing another expensive parts break down again? Your input is much appreciated. Mind to share which year, cbu japan or thailsnd, mileage, maintain at honda?

Auto start stop won't come on only if you select sport mode. Green eco is fuel saving.
3 black buttons from left 1. Motion sensor alarm. 2. Vsc on off. 3. Front parking sensor on off.
