Hello everyone, will be joining this family in a short while. Going to collect car from SA soon, would like to seek advise is there any specific items I should be checking more thoroughly when collecting?

It is a City V spec.

Guys, any recommended steering lock? The column on the City is kinda big, the T-Rex can't really clamp well :S.

I'm using a 16gb FAT32. it worked well.

Thanks for the info, I'm going to try the 32GB and see how it goes.

On the side note, anyone tried the HDMI port yet? How does it actually work? Item required is so pricey!

I looked again and again, it only mentions >256MB but didn't mention what is the maximum capacity support or it pretty much means it will take in any size that is available?

I'm using V spec, has everything in it already tongue.gif
HDMI port is a joke. I tried HDMI aux and the quality is sooooooooooo horrible i couldn't bare to stare at it for 2 seconds. The color suck, the resolution is off. (Maybe it's my phone/tablet problem i'm not sure someone please correct me)
Meanwhile, i play around with it, Does the App source needs HDMI too? I see that as a requirement no?
My SA quote me RM1400 at first, then i ask for discount, she gave me RM1200 for CS85.
*
What device were you using for the HDMI? The app should be using HondaLink app for iOS? I was thinking if able to show image let's saw Waze on the LCD would be cool.

Man you guys got really good deals on the tint! Mine was RM2700 for Ultra 70 for windscreen and Centurion RX-4mil for the sides and rear. Was told original pricing, RM3100 then Honda subsidy RM400, then gave me free upgrade for windscreen to Ultra 70.

I recalled the CS85 I was offered RM2100 - RM200 (Honda subsidy) for IRR85% all around, then if not is RM2100 for CS85 with 95% IRR windscreen.

I'd personally prefer the reverse cam and I actually asked My SA about it, she told me she would get back to me on it. The GPS doesn't concern me that much, I have gone through 2 Garmin GPS and have used Google maps and Waze. Personally prefer Waze. I'd probably mirror it to the HU if it's possible? I haven't really scour through the thread yet. I remember reading some guys here who were able to do so.

I'm interested in the rear reverse camera too! Not sure if we could order the reverse camera module from Thailand and get it fitted and should work with our HU?

Since the HU looks similar to the ones at Thailand.

For V Spec user.

Acc shop inform reverse camera will be arrive around this week. No wire cut is needed.
(Honda did not remove the cable connection? just remove it and prepare to add for sucking money)
Price should be RM650

Something i unsure..
Firmware change/update needed? as current menu dont had this option.
*
RM650 for the camera, this is the same one as used by City in Thailand? The one with 3 levels of angle.

Not sure man, so far I've only been able to speak on the phone with my SA. I am in KL and she is in Ipoh. Will only go back to Ipoh end of this month (fingers crossed to collect car) and be able to sit down to discuss with her. I've mentioned to her about the door gaps, the rear tire flaps and boot cover under the brake lights as well. She told me she'll find out about all of that and get back to me on the reverse camera.
Damn son, 650 bucks. I am asking my SA about the reverse camera, will it be brought it with later batches or will they bringing it in as an accessory. Another SA in KL told me there is a chance Honda might equip it with later batches if there is an enough demand with it. Apparently, Honda Malaysia surveyed the Malaysian market and deemed Reverse Camera and Paddle shifters redundant/low demand ( for the lack of a better term), hence, the omission. Not sure how true is it though.
On a separate note, got approved in FB group  biggrin.gif

I'll try to get my SA to check on the reverse camera too, I'll be meeting up with her on Thursday to fit leather seats on the car. RM3000 fly cry.gif

I'd like that too. But maybe later on.  biggrin.gif
I see so many change their seats, modify their rims, some even put on stickers on their cars, all done with the warranty in tact?

I collected on last Saturday (gf's ride actually), but then these technical stuffs she doesn't know so I'm the one dealing for her. While collecting car one of the customer Honda Civic 1.8 is undergoing the leather seat change, saw the way they did it pretty good!

I was told by SA these guys are from Alor Gajah Honda plant. *I'm from Melaka btw* Since its arranged by Honda, warranty should be intact? Heck my tint I event went for their panel mainly because they said if do outside, if any of the sensors on the door spoil due to the tint water it is not covered. And I heard the sensor nearby the windscreen cost RM6k shakehead.gif

speed lock mostly just plug n play. no need to cut any wire. just attach to the socket.

Which means if there's any issue and I need to claim warranty *touchwood* I can just remove it from the socket and won't be detected by the SC?

Side note to the rest, is it normal that the temperature is showing 30C? I mean its night time now... shouldn't it be like 25~27 or so perhaps?

I'm suspecting the sensor might be faulty, I mean just now cold start the car, it was showing 29C! blink.gif Can't be my place that "warm" in the morning? Its open air place.

What kind of sensor is that? For? 6k!

Not sure bro, they only told me its sensor for the keyless. Same type as Accord 2.4.

IINM, the manual had written +-3c for that sensor doh.gif

But I think just a small issue
*
sweat.gif sorry haven't exactly read the manual yet. Well mainly because I'm comparing it to a Teana, which shows lower readings in morning and night when temperature is definitely cooler than outside. A little surprise when I see it reading 30C at night!

I wonder what does it show during 12 noon where the sun is blazing.

Hi guys, I just sent car to Honda at Melaka to do the leather seats. I also asked about the auto lock and reverse camera.
Auto lock cost RM150, and reverse camera is RM500, and they showed me there's 3 views *on phone photo la*. But the reverse camera isn't available yet, they claimed its original Honda part. And by doing it with them, no warranty will be affected.
