Ph auto PJ Sea park behind KFC.

Look for Bosch horn, cheap and good. New city built in relay, so no need extra relay.

Had a long drive,
110km/hr is easy n fuel saving. 140km/hr still can't really feel the wind noise. Quite impressed. Only tyre noise insulation is bad.

i tried going 2 weeks regular driving with econ mode on and 2 weeks regular driving with econ mode off. got the same FC, 15.7km/L.
so, nowadays i never use econ mode anymore. since it makes no difference to efficiency, might as well just enjoy the power, right?

More about ECON mode:-
QUOTE
If you are concerned about maximizing your Honda’s fuel efficiency, then the ECON button is your new best friend!

Hondas are known for their great fuel economy, but if you want to take it one step further, consider pressing the ECON button. With one press your vehicle switches into a super efficient mode that does everything it can to maximize fuel efficiency:

  • a more gentle throttle is maintained
  • in vehicles with automatic transmission, it shifts into higher gears more quickly than without the ECON mode
  • in vehicles with manual transmission, the display screen will indicate when you should shift gears for better fuel economy
  • it limits how long the air conditioner runs

These small changes help to lighten load on the engine, so the fuel consumed is mostly being used for driving power. In ECON mode, fuel isn’t used by shifting gears at the wrong time, overuse of the air conditioner, or sudden stops-and-starts. Your vehicle can completely focus on driving.

Tried ECOn button press on city drive... average 9km/liter only... Not a great value at all (Penang City run)

But if drive to highway I can get average of 16.8km/liter smile.gif

Econ mode quite useless on highway.
Seems rpm higher with econ mode. Doesn't make sense at all.

So I didn't use it.
Got about 16+km/liter avg.

That's cause you press the pedal harder due to lack of power.. lots of time this is the cause of ECON mode being not ECON...

I disagree.
Tried with cruise control set at 110 with n without econ mode on flat road. Rpm with econ mode ON is higher compare to econ mode OFF. It has nothing to do with my right foot.

Econ mode, about rpm 2100
Econ mode off, rpm 2000 only.

Both on flat road.
