I want to ask is it worth servicing at sc? Just did my 24 month service and it costed a bomb, RM1082 

Details:

Honda Actmar
Maybe they see me still a kid easy to potong 
So basically only those items that are on the list found in Honda's website are mandatory?

I believe it's balancing + alignment?

Mum kept saying how stupid I am to go to sc and keep boasting how cheap it is to do it 'out' 

Add on: they called me during service say battery weak, add another RM199 for battery change 

Yes, it will void your warranty.

Sure or not bro? Because cabin pollen filter was listed in their scheduled maintenance unlike those add on engine cleaner etc..

I just worry later aircond rosak SC might not allow warranty claim.

update : fixed this.. caused by choked fuel strainer.. serdang honda SC installed the small part so badly till the o-ring koyak and resulting choking.. done at honda specialist ampang..

now can vroom2 again.. 

Hi Everyone,

My car just hit 139k few days back.

I just replaced my front and rear brake pads (Original Honda - Nissin).

Problem I having now is during braking at high speed (Above 100kmph), I will have vibration but not at low speed (below 80kmph).

I have skimmed my disc rotor few months back because of a very bad vibration at any braking speed.

Now this is a problem again. Heard that the original rotor is very prone to bend due to the current weather of rain and hot.

Just wondering anyone here have purchase a new rotor (original Honda), based online it is Bosch brand. How much is the expected damage?

Or should I change to Brembo (expected price?) with a new pair of brembo brakes

Hi Shreddy, have you change your spark plugs already since the OEM plugs have to be replaced at 100,000km.

If yes, what plugs have you replaced them with?

So the oem plugs can really last till 100,000 km. my car only clock in at 52,000 km now.. Still a long way to go before replacing the plugs

I replaced mine at 100k. original ngk iridium laser.. quite pricey.. not wrong should be about rm200++ for 4.

The original plugs in our City uses NGK or Denso?

A lot of people says Denso iridium are the better plugs if compared to NGK iridium.

Brake pads i high recommend to use back Nissin. I changed to brembo & it is noisy but braking power is slightly better than Nissin.

As for atf, best to use back honda dw1 fluid.

can you define noisy? i use back Nissin but the screeching sound is horrible. sakit telinga weh kalau bukak tingkap. will ask shop to check during next tyre rotation

I am using Brembo pads. Its a bit noisy when the car is coming to near stop. That's why I am recommending you to stick to the OEM Nissin pads.

Hi all, new user of 5G Honda City here. Bought a used one, year 2010 however very lucky because the mileage is just a little over 13.5k km. And of course, the ride also still feels like new (I drove my sister's 5.5G City which she bought new before, and it feels the same). So I have to say I am happy with my car.

However, I have a question here for you guys. Since my car is no longer under warranty, so I just serviced the car outside. For 20k km service, should I change the transmission oil as well?plus the car is already 4years, do you think I should change the auto transmission oil?

And if yes, May I know what is the type/brand of auto transmission that I should use?

Thanks in advance guys

Thanks guys for being very helpful.
Surely I will do as advised. Thanks Thrust and earl-ku.

Regarding the atf, does it available at any shops or do I need to buy it directly from Honda?

Mine is 2010 model. Warranty expired so I just use fully synthetic and go for 10000 oil change interval. For your info, Honda updated their engine oil. They now carries SN 0W30 Fully Synthetic (This 1 must be PAO base from Group IV oil as the price is quite steep at RM198) , SN 0W20 Fully Synthetic (This 1 is actually a highly refined Group III based oil).

I go with mineral oil. Ekekeke

Hi, may I know which fully are u using ? cuz u say got many types... Thanks

ya, but I scare those cannot last for 10k...

i think wanna try rm50 r95 vs rm50 r97.. see mileage if got any different..

not a prob bro since my objective is to compare the running cost, which how far both ron can go with same amount of money.. 

If you replace the starter motor to DENSO, guarantee you won't face the problem again.
