Anyone here cleaned their throttle body before?

Why cars nowadays love to equip their cars with "Circus" looking wheels?

I thought HONDA usually have ample stock for their spare parts?

ATF change is at every 60k as stated in the manual booklet.. However I will change mine at 40k.

Have you changed your car horn before? If you had, chances are your car's horn relay fuse is blown. Just replace it.

Actually i would recommend you to stick with 10AMP fuse as manufacturer set that rating due to certain reason. 15AMP fuse allow higher current to flow through which might fry some electronic gizmo..

What twin horn are you using btw? I am using PIAA slender horn without relay.

Actually it's best if you can just change to honda accord horn.. The power requirement might be the same as City.. I forgot what's City original horn wattage/AMP.. If u want peace of mind, stick to a horn that is close to the original wattage.

Else, u better install a relay. Btw, what's the wattage of ur PIAA sports horn?

Saw someone was selling it in LYN automotive garage.. You can check it out there.

Of course you will feel better acceleration response using the green bottled oil because the weight oil is lighter rated at 20 whereas the fully synthetic red bottled oil is rated at 40.

Red bottled oil will give you better protection as it is genuinely a fully synthetic oil (group 4 polyalphaolifin). The green bottled oil, although honda claims it is fully synthetic.. In actual fact it is not. That oil is actually a highly refined oil based from group 3 hydrocracked oil. That is why you can see there's a huge difference in terms of pricing between the red bottle and the green bottle fully synthetic oil.

Countries like Japan, Germany and a few others wouldn't allow an oil to be named fully synthetic if their based is from hydrocracked oil. However, the rest of the world don't usually follow this and 99% of the time will mislead consumer into believing that they are using fully synthetic oil.

The green honda oil is still a good oil as they are categorized as the best group 3 based oil.. Highly refined and pure.. However, if it is compared to the red bottled PAO oil, the differences is day and night in terms of quality of the oil as well as oil drain interval.

If you hardly rev your engine till the 5k-6k rpm band, it is safe to go with the green oil. Else the red oil will be better.

Hope my 2cents reply helps.

Anyone experience any annoying sound from the back of the car which is supposing the rear reclining seat board? It emanates a very irritating sound when you're going through uneven roads (tiktiktik sound).

Mine receive a letter from Honda asking me to replace the starter motor.. They replaced it with a denso unit, added some grounding cable and replaced the car battery. Until now i nvr once experience difficulty to start the car.

Why do you guys take the hassle to change to after market bulbs when the original can last much longer & don't risk the chances of getting a summon

Any also to annoy on coming cars with the much brighter headlights ler..

Yalor.. That's why i nvr considered getting aftermarket bulbs. Too much hassle and expensive to replace the bulbs. On top of that.. Maybe have to pay kopi fee once in awhile.

Anyone here facing squeeky door panel noise? Its like the plastic door material is soft and squeeky sounds comes out when you press on the plastic door panel.

So sad Honda is using cheap plastic and short changed us.. Even Vios and Almera plastic is harder and they don't squeek..

Could be your radiator cap seal worn out already. Try replacing your radiator cap first & see how it goes.

Anyone here replaced their shock absorbers already? I was wondering whether is Koni available for Honda City? If yes.. Where can I get them installed?

Same as urs.. 2010 model.. It is not necessary but you definitely will feel the ride is harsher now. Once you replaced it, original ride and handling will be restored.

My warranty is over as i am driving a 2010 model.. I still service my car at Honda. I will change oil at every 8-10k kilometer but i am using the 5W40 fully synthetic oil. Current mileage only 51k
