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. smile.gif

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 smile.gif

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

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

Most of the Honda City 5G owners here would be affected, wait for the letter from Honda ...

Test it out properly bro... A lot of the cheaper unit some when using GPS cannot play music and vice versa and some very lagging when switching between map and music or radio

That's why. I'm afraid that if I buy random china product, it will be a mess. Anyone here has any suggestion on what brand or where to buy?
Anyone did this modification to their City here?

That's what all SC will tell you. I was told the same thing too. However, an email to Honda Malaysia confirmed that our City requires passenger side airbag replacement too which is under the 2nd batch recall. Part shipment will start arriving in July onward.

How do we enroll into the 2nd batch recall list?
As I have changed mine, but only for the driver side airbag,I have told Honda SC many times that there is a new recall for passenger side airbags as well, but they said as of now they only receive instruction to change driver side airbag for my model.

Honda city 2010 here.

Hi guys,

My Honda City front tow cover (the one with circle plastic cover, on the FL, its in square shape), happened to be detached from the bumper and seriously I dont know when did it fell, probably somewhere along the road.

I think it might have became loose after I "kissed" another car before.
Where can I get it replaced? Kinda hurt my eyes seeing my car with a hole in the bumper :'(

Hi guys. Im thinking of installing an aftermarket modulo bodykit to my 2010 City.

One shop that I found quoted rm954 for including paint and installation cost with gst.

The material is ABS. I heard that this material is good in a way that the paint on the bodykit will not be too far off from the original body paint.

What do you guys think? Any suggestion or recommendation where to get the modulo bodykit?

Thank you! smile.gif

Turning n
o noise.

Just that early morning got nyek nyek sound

After driving a while then no sound. How damn weird.

I'm having the same problem. No idea what happened sad.gif

But mine is more like "nyit nyit nyit" sound when on uneven surface. Will be more audible at night becoz the surrounding is quieter compared to during the day. Any idea on how to solve this? :|

Replaced stabilizer links. Appeared to have solved the nyek nyek sounds in the morning.

However..

There's now a glug glug sound from the right side of the car...  dry.gif

How much did it cost to replace the stabilizer links?

Back to finding out the source of noise then dry.gif

Does the glug glug sound really loud? Mine at the back also got some sound, mainly when driving slowly over bump or inclined surface.
