I believe all filters require replacement. It just depends on how often.

Since this version of Honda City is around 7 years in the market, can anyone share their experience on repairs?

I am not so lucky. From 5th year onwards, parts needed repair kept coming in:-

i) Master brake cyclinder replacement RM600;

ii) Cooling coil & expansion valve RM800;

iii) coolant leak due to throttle body hose RM20;

Hingan honda spareparts at jalan pudu.

I too drive like an aunty & has only clocked in 80,000 km after 6.7 years of ownership.

Thanks for informing. However, I heard most items are out of stock.

Car getting old is lidat lo... Have you replaced your spark plugs & battery as these may affect engine start up during cold.

Usually morning requires a bit more cranking due to cold. Once it's hot, the car will be easier to start.

Starter motor issue... i got mine replaced to Denso and never encounter that problem since.

Back then when I complained to Honda back in 2011, they replaced my battery but problem still persist. I complained again and they replaced my starter motor. In fact, i receive a letter requesting me to send the car back to replace the starter motor. Never encountered starting problem ever since (especially when engine is hot).

I noticed the Denso motor are of better quality when you crank it. The sound is a lot different from the defective one.

Experience Honda mechanic will know City is plague with this issue. They just won't inform you due to whatever reason.

I know what's ur problem.. I encountered the same thing. Its actually the reclining seat. Try setting it down to the lowest step & the sound should go away.

Do update us on the outcome..

you use toilet paper & wrap around the whole rod?

Noted with thanks! I used toilet paper to wrap around the rod.

Ya... no tik tik noise so far.

A well maintained Honda City of this model is very reliable & durable.. Fuel consumption is pretty good for a 1.5 liter car.

The only downside is 2011 model do not come with VSC.

Can you see what is the brand of your current starter motor?

Basically, around RM300 to RM400+... I can recommend you the place.

It's nearby Taman Sri Manja along Old Klang Road.

This shop is operated by a talkative old man and sometimes assisted by 2 of his school going sons.

You can ask him anything & he will share his experience on car air conditioning system works.
