I just done my 5k service and i realize they add another 3 month for next service from the date i bought this car.I just drive in town only seldom go outstation.So when my next service for 10k,my mileage maybe just 8k++.And if every month my mileage havent reached but my date come 1st then for 50k service my mileage will be at 40k.

Is this true they follow the date of purchased and not from the date i changed engine oil???

Anyone experience NHC 2012 on top of the car meter dasboard got sounds especially going for uneven road and also some sparks sound coming from the right tyre especially driving at night?

Already bring to Honda service center for more than 3 times and complain about it but they keep saying they heard no sound and didn't do anything on it.

wrong liao then. dunno which funny technician write for u.
go and scold them.
Service interval is always 5k or 3 months whichever come first.
In your case, the 3 months will come before each 5k. nothing wrong.

The 3 months is actually their SOP for mineral oil. if you're on semi synth, it should go further than that.

whichever first bro. if at 3 months your car is 4k milleage but already 3 months, then follow the timing not milleage.

as for your first service, it should be 3 months or +5k at the date of service. not when u bought the car.

and IMHO, honda's full synth not worth it. If you want balance between performance and FC and must use honda oil for warranty purpose, their semi synth is good enough.

Don't think that is possible bro. or at least i don't think the teardown and wiring work will be worth it. why? wanna change from pre-FL to FL blue color? lol IMHO i feel very tak match with the rest of the car. all still red/amber, including radio and aircon controls, then suddenly got blue color speedometer.
