I assume that's a V-spec...?

It is activated by default. Should you wanna go drifting or do whatever killer stunt, then you press and hold to turn it off, it will give out an indicator on your instrument cluster... But the next time you restart your car it will automatically turn on again by default...

What the heck...!

You wanna kill off your battery izzit...?

Lots of discounts and freebies doesn't mean service is good... Be happy with what you have...

Salesmen and tech junkies are different... If you're good at cars you won't be salesman dy...

Then again I'm not looking down on car salesmen either... Human imperfection plays a part too, nobody's 100% versed on the ins and outs of cars anyway...

And for that, the company that sells or distributes the car should hire a trainer, especially in-house trainers to train not only their staff but their customers as well. Train them not on how to drive the car, but how to operate the car inside and out, especially electronics and stuff.

I hailed from Apple retail working for resellers doing sales and training juniors at an unofficial capacity, and now resellers are hiring trainers to train both staff and customers, so that staff will have plenty of time focusing on sales bringing about the good things Apple, and leave the technicalities to the trainers and support staff once they secured the sale. I would encourage car dealers to do the same, hire a in-house trainer of some sort. But in Bolehland, this doesn't seem a priority (or even probably not profitable in a sense). I guess they think Bolehlanders buy cars to ride from point A to B, with high end cars to show off. Less than half of them would probably focus on features and electronics...?

Personally I'm a very techie person, and I've always asked technical questions about cars. If I were to approach your salesgirl about why City has ECON button and not Jazz, I bet she can't answer it as well. But I can't fault her. It is a very technical question that may even result an answer of an economical sense unrelated to her job scope. But in your case, she maybe be new to her position and her products, or maybe she had a hangover from being drunk the day before and mixed things up somehow... Who knows...? But that's another matter altogether...

Don't say I'm right... It's just my opinion, that's all...

There's another problem for you...

Honda dealers do not have a centralised database for history of service and repairs... If the previous owner happened to service his or her car at random Honda dealers, you're screwed. You would have to refer to the service booklet for the past service details and reach out to individual dealers for the car's history...

Planning and arranging, but dunno how to search the web...?

Car Loan Affordability Calculator

Car Loan Payment Calculator

No AT fluid...?

Coz Honda service advisor at AutoWorld Asia wanted me to service at 20k km... I belayed them...

which brings me to this question... how the heck can Honda operate without a single SC under their watch...? All SCs we've seen so far are just dealers...

Even Toyota dealers have access to a centralised database...

continuous "kruk kruk" sound between that speed range...?

if you shift to Neutral and rev engine to 1.5k rpm, do you experience the same sound...?

Mine is ge if you need to know...

mana photo...?

My color of choice... Maroon (only in Indian market), Blue, Grey...

Too bad my GE don't have first 2 colors, and grey wasn't on the official list of colors... Settled with grey...

what's your search string on lelong...?

I can only dig up house door rubber strip...

Chassis foaming can do very little about road noise when it's primary objective is to improvement better ride handling and reduce vibrations and harshness...

What you need to do is to change to better and quieter tyres (if you have not done so), followed by floorpan insulation with good material (if you can afford it)...


Do take note that different ppl have different hearing perceptions and sensitivity toward certain sound frequencies, ppl like me are very susceptible to lower-mid frequencies, hence drone sounds, so fixing these problems may not work best.

The other thing is, the lower the frequency, the longer the wavelength. At this point it's gonna be hard to keep frequencies at that kinda wavelength out completely - lest what you need is to build a tank...

Does the foam improve your ride and handling...?

Simple...!

Married and grounded for life, get the City...

Single and plenty of seeds to plant around, get the Jazz...
