same here..

Would the 5W-40 be better for us since our weather is really hot at the moment? With our current weather temperature, would the 0W-20 be able withstand even at 2000~3000rpm before thinning out? But then I'm worried the 5W-40 would give an impact on the FC. What's the default mineral oil grade being used?

When they mention "until the FIRST MAINTEANCE INTERVAL",does our 1000km(or 1month) consider just an INSPECTION or MAINTENANCE? 1000km or 10,000km in this case? hhmm

can you share which shop you installed all these in both Penang & Kulim?

also i realize the ICE for V Spec HU does not comes with any EQ settings for u to set, they only have Bass & Treble ...

instead of replacing a totally new HU with EQ, anyone knows is there any component with Plug&Play that can attached to the HU so we can play around or change the EQ depending on the type of songs we play? (if possible change everything via the touch screen HU display would be even more cool ..hehe ) any good suggestion or method to solve the doubts?

wow...u think too far ahead of technology

Digital, programmable EQ?

Specified --> 10000km I guess.

So oil change at 1k is not recommended? I'm confused with the information i am receiving. Can anyone draw a bottomline? Thank you

Honda deleted my post asking about the no engine oil change at 1000km.....not very professional. They should be open and explain the reason. At least Mitsubishi kena tembak kaw-kaw at their FB, they give standard bot reply "Please arrange visit with our SC for further investigation".

Maybe we should all post the same question, see how many can they delete -.-

My mistake...the post is still there somewhere.

AFAIK no oil change at 1000km maintenance. Inspection only. My 3G city also no parts change during first service.
But i dont understand why they refuse to change when u insist on it

For my case it was on a Saturday, long q therefore they didn't want to do it... even when I'm paying .

Aiyoyoyoyo...u guys didn't read the post(s) above?

Honda wants the engine to develop a normal wear pattern.

Let me use a layman analogy...

Your soldiers are meant to be marching for 10KM before they take a break
But u allow them to rest after only 1KM
U will make them spoiled brats

Something like that

Yeah, butbit would be proper for Honda Malaysia to explain to its customers.
Also strange that Honda Singapore has different maintenance plan for the same Accord 2013. How to explain?

whats so special about the special oil? Can Honda explain?

I think better don't compare w Singapore

Accord 2013 Malaysia also inspection only for first 1K km
Civic also same...Jazz also same...in fact ALL Honda models

Special oil or whatever does not matter IMHO, they want the engine to develop a normal wear me thinks

Yes I read, I just wanted to clarify for my case which is why I think they didn't want to change. I heard of certain people managed to change their engine oil anyways.

Lol good one

yes..for S & E spec ..customer upgrade outside HU of course got EQ, Loudness etc.
