Gratz .. Nice number

All recently launched new cars also have some quality issues....Vios, Almera etc. etc. Even the Polo Sedan I checked out at a road show have uneven paint inside the boot (Some areas are only painted halfway!). But you won't notice unless you open the boot.

Nowadays everything also cut cost, it's inevitable. Just that some manufacturers hide their cost-cutting better than others.

Tq

I see your car on the FB group...I know who u r now

It's alright

What's the fb group you guys joined ?

Stalker!! Lucky I no play FB.

So eh guys, where do you all get the best discount? Those centers in klang are stingy lol.

Just got my wife"s car. Initial result.

VERY SEXTISFIED!!!!

None of the defect mentioned in the first post.

Now inside car, reporting from rear passenger seat.

I actually shared with my SA regarding the defects of some of you guys encountered. He said that the dealer branch can reject bad quality cars to factory. So maybe it's the branch didn't do proper QC before handling over to customers. He also mentioned his branch nearby the Honda HQ, hence Honda people always come to service their car there...so they are always on their toes sked Honda people checking them....

==========
Initial impression:
Cabin sound is pretty quiet below 60km/h, maybe even a bit better than my Inspira.
Above 60km/h and on SPRINT/LDP highway, got a bit noise, but still not too bad.
I think i can save money with the soundproofing liao...

Suspension: Not as hard as i thought, actually pretty comfortable, maybe only when going over those small nasty bump need to slow down a bit. But my Inspira suspension is still softer (actually Inspira suspension is tuned very soft, until i need to install some spring buffer to reduce the bouncy feeling).

Mod done:
1) Llumar T-450 tint (SA advised put 2 days under hot sun to dry it up), the tint installer has also stick sticker on the power windows button to prevent us from touching it.

2) Pedal lock.

SA help me do this and kaw-tim already b4 we collect car.


Bluetooh Radio:
The bluetooth radio not bad wei, can bluetooth and import contact list from phone. Very useful.

Driving Experience:
Dunno...no chance to drive yet. But wife seems very happy and says very responsive and easy to get out of junction compared to VIOS...and she is driving in ECON mode all the while.

Now back at home, need to rest...whole day running here and there to fetch kid to various activities...damn tired....Zzzzzzz

(PS: I have ripped off most of the plastic and rape the seats liao... )

Small issue don't bother lar, unless it's a big issue (like DSG/Dry Clutch/Powershift issues). Perfectionist will never be happy or satisfied. I choose not be perfectionist and happy.

This City, If stop on a upward slope, and in D gear, can I lift oil pedal and the car remain stationary? Or will it slide backwards?

Ayam rage PinkSpider Dowan talk to him for 1 day!!

For S and S+, the car will roll backwards if the slope is steep enough. E and V has hill assist so it won't roll backwards.

U get the tint totally free or need to top up a bit?

on the rape
Please see above post...maby Matrix chose to be blind to those small defects/QC issues

Proton waja didn't roll back downwards on hill slope.

Is this normal for honda to slide down? Even if slowly.

Waja will also roll back if the slope is too steep, I used to own an auto Waja too.

Auto cars use the engine to drag the wheel preventing them from rolling back. But if the slope is very steep the engine power alone will not be enough to hold the car on the slope.

Cars with hill assist like City E and V uses the brakes to hold your car on the slope for a few seconds after you lift you feet off the brakes, and will release the brakes when you press the accelerator. So even on very steep hills the car also won't roll back.

So, yes, unless your auto car has hill assist, otherwise it is normal for it to roll back on slopes.

Share my experiences with 2006 Hyundai Accent, Myvi, 2006 City and 2014 City.

Cars that when u shift from N > D tend to jerk forward - Myvi
Hold up pretty well on slopes

Cars that when u shift from N > D don't jerk, u need to press on accelerator pedal it only moves - Hyundai Accent 2006 is the "worst" here, but give and take lor, this car is quite "premium" feeling
Rolls back easily on slopes

City 2014 E and V spec got hill assist, so it gives u BOTH of the above

Free your head lah....cost me Rm800..

No defect wor, but I didnt use microscope to check paint defect inch by inch.
You do that ah?
