Just look at the door trim area, you can see the rubber insulator is not complete,just partial done,that is the reason when you close the door,the sound  so hard....and I believe this is the reason the soundproof of the cabin not so good...
That's why I was so stunned how come Honda become Toyota already (everything cut cost)...
*
my door close very well... no sound, very good thump sound. and not to say better, but compare to my dad BMW F10, the door sound in the City is quite good.... my mum Peugeot 208 sound worse than my City, haha

my car got 2 issue.

1. there are something rattling in the ceiling, near at the dome light. everytime i close the door, and sometimes at rough road, it will vibrate. a bit annoying. so now have to send to SC for 1 day, for them to open my ceiling and fix it. what im concern now is will it create more problem? because alot of things need to be open to get the ceiling open... huhu...

2. a vibration, after i start and move my car until it hit like 20kmh per hour. but that vibration only last for 2 seconds, and after that no more already.
but it happen everytime i start my car, maybe due to oil not yet lubricate the engine properly during startup? i dont know.

happens to my city as well, not constant, l found out the car got poor sound proof & odor proof, sound mainly from tire side  icon_question.gif
*
for my car, i notice the sound will pop up when i hit 40kmh the first time of my drive. if i stop at traffic, and hit 40kmh again, wont hear the noise.
maybe at 40kmh something is activated, but im not sure what.

maybe i will send to SC later... so malas... but not GB and Engine related i think, doh.gif

the sound coming from my car when reach 40kmh is the ABS Modulator.

may I know, does your city make any noise when it reach 40kmh for the first time of your every drive?

You fixed it in Honda service center?
*
they only confirmed. but they said they need to test several car to see if the noise is there for all the car. if not, then they will proceed with fixing it. maybe change the unit.

good to hear that! biggrin.gif

i understand the underpower part. i went to test drive the honda, gear change is smooth but acceleration is abit on the downside.

the reason im still taking the New City is because im looking for for fuel consumption. i bet you are too right?  hmm.gif

not for racing. lol. hahaha
*
maybe you turn on ECON mode? it will decrease the acceleration power...

If it's the same clips as the bumper clips then can get it from spare parts shop for about RM1 each (if Honda insists on you paying and they are charging more).
*
they charge it rm8 each. so yeah, im gonna buy from outside shop.. but what about the fitting? hehe

Bumper clips are universal so no worries. The clips can fall off on its own with wear and tear from the environment like heat and all but it shouldn't happen to a new car and Honda isn't playing it nice in this case, after all the clips aren't expensive at all.
*
thanks... will look for it tomorrow. yup, Honda is not very nice... 2 weeks car... and both side of the clip missing.... and they still want to charge me....

but what about this issue? any advice?

can describe more detail? Mine so far don't had any noise, but may turn of radio to check again

ok... first when you start you car, drive normally, and do focus on the noise coming from engine bay when your car hit 40kmh...

this will happen only for 1 time per drive, as it is the noise of the ABS modulator kick in.... this happen to Civic as well...
