arghh why la honda foreman not do job perfectly and inspect fully ...

open other things, different things affect.

to me I think 7 is ok la... some might like it 10 above?

engine oil viscosity nothing to do with hybrid or not ma.
if a year 2006ish starting production 1.8l 4 banger engine can use xw20, i'm sure a more recent engine honda can go lighter.

in fact honda's one of the major pusher for lighter viscosity pressuring the SAE (society of automotive engineers) to make it official (which they did) and now only pending for certification programs and what not.

i can't tell what the future holds la, but if the future is 0w0 then i'm totally in for it

Hi Ree73, may I know did u all encounter the same fortune as the official receipt that I posted for the Honda City 2014 issue? Lower arm absorber have loud noise, door for front passenger got rattling sound, rear boot alignment run and gap on front passenger side?

that is true and i highly agree.

while i'm not using idemitsu/Honda lubricants, i'm fairly sure Honda does know what they are knowing considering overseas have long since practiced lighter viscosity/extended OCI like Honda America/Japan.

you know, Muhrica the land of lawsuits, FC high? kena sue. Maintenance cost high? kena sue.
to curb this, ma use better/modern lighter viscosity EO lo
Engine oil have come a long way in improvement/development after all

and depending on how "gentle" you think i drive, the test result is proven already la

apparently sub 50 in metal ppm is considered decent la (which was disappointing considering how much i spent on lube/additives)

my goal now is to further reduce it to sub 10 ppm on the next OCI/lab report.
already got plans on that, wish me luck

How do you plan to reduce metall ppm???

racing oil with high friction modifier certainly helps since they deal with temperatures and friction at a very escalated rate compared to daily drivers.

then there's magnetism
the cost to DIY is shockingly low haha
free if you don't mind aesthetics, plug out hdd magnets and stick it on your oil filter

just make sure it's secured with tape or something else someone will get damn sour having a hdd magnet flying to their windscreen

Sometimes the scratches is not by human.. It's by cat and dog..especially scratches at car bumper

Minor defects got. but I don't think I have serious defects... Thus far no noise, only noise I heard is isolation noise from tyres. and the driver site gap from dashboard.

Hi Ree73, when u flipped out your boot trunk cover, did you see a white creamy sealant apply across the welding area without paint on it?

I cant remember already.... if got also minor

I did remember I flip up b4... not issue for me.... will check again

Hi Ree73, please spare some time to check for me your car condition on the boot trunk near to spare tyre area to see whether got white sealant shown or with paint to it. Thank you.

mine looks the same that way too.. just sealant across the edges

Hi Honda City owners, found this nano technology anti-scratch package that provide ultimate protection for your car. A good package to be consider in future - http://www.nanoarmor.com.my/titanium-anti-scratch

Is this ur car jeff? Did u manage to complain to sc?

If im not mistaken its in shah alam.. U just go to their website... Got map n all...

Hi neko shikacho, I had called Honda Malaysia and they said the white creamy sealant is applicable for all variant of Honda cars without paint on it. I'm totally not understand why Honda cars unable to spray the paint over it to make it look nicer?

Hi neko shikacho, thanks for your information and will google for the location. Hope the shop still open and the product I want is there...
