I know it is not the same thing. But, they bring the each engine that goes into a Veyron or R35 into an engine room and crank it up to max revs for a certain period of time. If you believe what happened to yours is not good for the car. Imagine what happened to those?

I know it is uncomfortable to see that it clocked mileage and things of such. But, at least you know that it had things done to it. Wouldn't it be more worrying if you see 0 mileage clocked which might indicate they can reset things and hide even worst things done to the car from you?

Personally, i'd prefer the former. At least i know they are not defecating in my car. It's really no point to get worked up on why what happened, happened. Seriously. Don't lose sleep over it.

Thanks for the replies, you have certainly put my mind at ease... I hadn't considered the possibility of it running while stationary, probably while tinting and doing the body kit
We have just moved house, this little car has done a fantastic job of carting stuff across town... Our new neighbours were stunned by the amount and size of stuff that I unloaded from her

I can now continue to fully enjoy my baby again

Cheers

what products (cement) did you use to glue the cover?

Just doing 10k service this morning.....using semi synthetic EO with 10W30 Viscocity....the total bill is RM143.00 with free labor....not sure the brand of EO used....

refer the bottom of the bottle.

if semi should be 5W-30, 10W30 is mineral.

Opsss .....the tax invoice show the price as follow:
Labor for 10k service FOc
Washer Drain 14mm RM1.89
OIL Filter Catridge RM27.84
5W30 Semi Synthetic RM113.54
Total (With GST) Rm143.31

So its actuallly 5W30 and not 10W30........but there are no bottle given to me for any leftover since this Wanija SC is using Bulk Container not a 4 L or 5 L Bottles as usuall....thats why i dont know the Brand of the EO......i also dont have time to ask as I drop the car and asking for semi synthetic and left the car and collected later...

Hatchback vs sedan (although it's more towards being a utility one). If you never had a hatchback, you'll want one. The previous version rear leg room is pretty bad. This new one is good, very good. I think it's a bit taller than city and feel roomier inside.

However I think City is slightly better in certain aspects. The door closing feels more solid. I still drove my mom old city with ultra seat and it is very solid. No creaks etc but it's not the most comfortable seat I ever had. It's just useful if you really had any use for it. The rear 5th door will allow easy access and ability to put things not possible in a sedan like flower pot or slightly oversized pet cage.

Those watery like clear based cement that bonds in like 10 seconds that sells for like RM5+ and above for a very small stick or bottle that needs the plastic tip cut off during first use. I can't remember the brand name.

Looks a bit like this or sometimes in a small plastic bottle form for other brands


Not those UHU super glue type. That doesn't keep it stuck.

Nah. The 5w doesn't really matter much to us as we don't have winter although it gives a bit of range to the viscosity over the entire temperature band.

It's usually this


or the newer packaging for the semi synthetic


Honda price being honda price. You can't say much at RM113 la.

But for a good comparison, the oil filter Japan not Thai one (still blue colored but with some japanese wording) can be had for RM25 outside before GST. Thai ones are RM20 and there are some green colored ones. It is just a little over a buck off the Honda price which i assume is after 15% discount.

Actually, i am not sure about the rear leg room on the GK5 vs GE8 as i no longer have my stock seats anymore. It feels kinda same because the front seats are damn bulky especially if you have it pushed all the way back.

I do agree however that the city doors feels more solid especially the front ones. You can notice that the Jazz rear doors are actually very well and closes with a thud sound rather than a clunk sound from the front. I deduced that down to the fact that the City has rather similar length doors front and back while the Jazz has a rather shorter rear door and a rather long front door which seems to be causing it.

For the lack of a better picture for comparison



It is more apparent when you look at the GE. The jazz even loses 70mm in wheelbase to the City, so that 70mm must have gone missing somewhere in between the front and rear wheels.

Anyone booked during raya promotion?

I asked the dealer about it

And they said if u booked but receive the car after the promotion period, u wont entitled to the promo cash rebate.

I think that BS, i just laughed

"Bagi balik refund lor kalo itu macam".

Since the last gen of Honda City released in 2009, the wheelbase for both Jazz and City are no longer the same.
I guess longer wheelbase is meant to increase grip and stability especially City is a sedan.

All honda promo is like that. You have to get the car registered during the promo period.

If after that and your car still not registered you don't get the discount.

But, you can always reject it from going forward and get your booking fee back. Jus make sure they can ensure the delivery date within period or do not go forward with signing the hire purchase loa. It is always your rights to stop it dead in its track because if you have no money to pay also they wun give you the car

Only the engineers will know. Maybe more room, maybe for handling. Not sure

This happen coz everytime there left over oil, mechanic keeps them.
If one car leftover 300ml, they will only need another 12 cars to to get a total of 4litre.

The 14th car will just use all the accumulated leftover oils, that particular bottle? Just connect back to your story above.

Watever it is. Its not legit oils la. At least, you are not having an opened bottle of oil

may i have the name of the 3S service center please as RM120 for 0W20 fully synthetic EO is very cheap.....i already asking from my local SC (Wanija Seremban) and they quote the price of RM260.00 for the OW20 Fully synthetic 4 liters EO....for the price that you mentioned, i am just getting 5W30 semi synthetic EO,,,

leftover EO....no, thank you..

thats explain the RM90.00 Fully synthetic 0W20 EO that you got,,,,its a leftover,,,hahahha,,,

No la, its not leftover. Cause i usually check if the cap has been opened before. And i open the cap at the shop and try to put the bottle upside down to see if it leaks through the seals or anything (call me paranoid but i dun care).

If they can draw out or put back oil without tampering the bottle. I have nothing to say lo.
