How long do we need to service the aircon once  ?
*
In our country climate dusty hot and humid weather, every 2 years once is good enough and change the AirCon filter once every year.

guys, i dunno about u guys, but i service in 10k interval. using the fully synthetic oil. this is how i arrange my service schedule. the expensive service period is always the 20 and 40 interval. try to split certain parts that need to replace on the 5k interval. for example,

10k fully oil normal service ( excluding air filter and air con filter)
20k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter) with cvtf (cvtf adviceble to change every 15-20k)
25k buy air filter from honda and install urself
30k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter)
35K change cvtf , buy aircon filter from honda and install urself.
40k major service (excluding fuel filter, air filter, aircon filter , air con service, cvtf)
45k change fuel filter ( no labour charged coz, already paid on 40k service)
50k fully oil normal service WITH air filter
55k air con service & cvtf (excluding air con filter)
60k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter)
65k change air con filter change cvtf
70k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter)
75k buy aircon filter install urself change cvtf
80k same as 40k...and continue

For those who prefer to change cvtf At 40k interval then do it on 35k, 75k. Fuel filter at 45k, 85k. The goal is to pay lesser during 40, 80k major service.

well...i have been to Kah Motor Puchong and Actmar in Klang...both SC were telling that the maximum distance allowed for would be 5km regardless which type of engine oil opted...I even called up Honda Malaysia and the reply I got was to adhere to the maintenance plan as per the service booklet in order to be eligible for the vehicle warranty coverage...

in the end, i gave up...have been using the SM 0W-20(Fully-Synthetic) engine oil for my car as I felt it gives a better acceleration and FC compared to the other type of Honda engine oil which I have tried before...the service interval is still 5k mad.gif

another question is that whether is it compulsory to change the oil filter every 5k?
I've noticed SC has changed it for me everytime I go for my car service

Well my opinion. Changing oil filter every time when u change oil is good. At least it keep the oil clean and benefits for the engine. Oil filter rm 20-30 it's ok.

My pass experienced when Honda with my previous Honda city. Claiming warranty is through the dealer through the SA, or the manager. U just need to find the right dealer to service ur car. As long u negotiate with them, explain, and they are ok with your self schedule service, the warranty is still there.

A friend of mine managed to replaced her Honda city cvt gear box after warranty expires. Is all depends how u talk to them. But of coz u must be the regular customer of the dealer lah.


Oh let me get this clear guys.
All these are my experience and personal opinion. Do it at your own risk. I'm not Honda Malaysia.
