It was the SC in Puchong....hmnn...the thing is that the 8 years extended warranty for our hybrid battery only valid if we continue to stick with Honda servicing..

you guys have any thoughts of moving out for car servicing after the first 3 years?

mine clocking 95,000km. i am 99% opt to moving out after this service.

so far so good the engine. 2011 model here. i had clocked almost 130k of mileage to date. my car is going to be 6 years old in this coming april.

i only encounter the problem with the aircon, sometimes the compressor just does not start and no cold air but instead hot air.

but the aircon is not 100% not working, i still get very cold air most of the time, it just sometimes does not work.

till now i still do not know what is the problem with it?
*
My car has the same problem. One of a very nice aircon man told me i can try to change the relay. He charge me RM 50 for that. And my aircon running perfectly for the last 2 weeks. keep my finger crossed.

happened to my car too. 2011 model with 132k clocked. 90% works fine, but if cruising 100-110 on highways, will have 5mins of hot air, then back to normal

happens once or twice a month

I found and solve a mysterious vibration sound.
See photo, that cover was touching main engine. Tried 2 mechanics, no solution.
I take out front driver side tyre. push that cover down and no more noise.
It may happens to you after 223k mileage.
I also changed aircon relay, aircon no more giving out hot air.
Look like can keep my car till 300k.

what kind of sound before you fix it? Metal klink-ing sound?
where you change the aircon relay? Mine if drive in the afternoon, the aircon not cold at all.
*
sound like metal klinking. open driver seat door, can hear the sound come out from bottom of the engine.
relay can be changed in any aircon service shop. if you know, you may unplug it and buy from acessory shop. it located in the car bonnnet, passenger side.

however still got 1 sound coming out from bonnet. when i turn the aircon to below 24 deg C it gone, when i set it 25, 26 deg C , the kliking sound come out sometimes. Will find out that.

Is it the sound appear when you travel at very low speed and over uneven road and speed bumps?? I have the same problem and no idea what is causing it. It's really annoying indeed.  hmm.gif

try to turn aircon temp setting lower, lowest. If the kluk kluk sounds gone, it is due to an 'alternator' in the aircon.
You can see that thing switching on and off when you open the storage compartment and see inside. in front of passenger seat.
mine has this problem, but havent go and change it

guys any idea where is the AC relay located? Anyone had a problem before with the AC relay?

Thanks
*
it is located near 12V battery in.
No problem before. If you have, just buy one from accesory sgop and replace. very common part.
I changed once when my aircon has problem, but found out that the compressor clutch already worn out instead.
Not relay problem

just did mine recently to replace the clutch. do at outside. RM350

I changed mine too, about the same price.
Workshop is using MYVI clutch as replacement.
Original clutch has to come from Japan and very expensive.
