it's normal, i have it too...
but after reading forums..ppl say that it's normal..
i guess it's the CVT...
do correct me if i'm wrong

From what I read the Jazz/City doesn't have a learning ECU for driver habits.

Its because the CVT has an infinite possible ratio's compared to 5 for most manual cars it can always match the driver habits/engine speed/gradient/etc. all the time.

Try giving it a spin going up Genting. I found it very smooth compared to my old automatic car which I have to constantly go from [D] to [2] to [L] and mostly [L] sometimes. The CVT lets you go on [D] smoothly and with power all the way up.

It's normal

That's one of the reasons i'll return to the SC and get the ECU checked if it's normal or not. It's irritating to have the engine noise creep in at normal cruising speeds

Added you to the list.

Also amended some more information to the first page

anyone installed stabilizer bar on their city???
is it good and recommended??

I've installed a 2-point strut bar for my front engine bay.. yeah, makes a difference.. can be felt almost immediately when you negotiate corners.. worth the money as for the lower arm bar, rear bar and anti-roll bar.. i can't testify cuz i didn't install them..

JE got onot?? any idea how much??

oh yah .. i think i saw b4 gouki's car and he has these PIAA wiper blades ... was wondering whether its good or not ... cuz i think my wiper sudah koyak ... not very clear ... got warranty onot eh for our wiper blades? my car just 10k mileage ... was thinking of buying from forummer ... the ZS silicone wiper ... for RM90

but i think the PIAA ones are like ... $$$$$$$$$ ...

its only on my sister's car..not in my mom's car pulak.

the struts are available at JE.. for around RM100 plus plus.. not sure the exact price loh..

PIAA ones are double the price of the ZS ones..
warranty for wiper blades? not sure of that.. mine still works fine

as in the "aeroplane" sound? it's normal on a cvt..

aeroplane landing...lol just before it lands. that kinda sound. no way to fix it?

dont think so there's a way ler....
unless dun want cvt

there should be reason y some city doesnt hav this n some kena right?

haha alrite ...

was thinking of wat else to buy for my car ... do the v40 tint first ... make it look exactly like yours ...

arroo everyone,

wahlau so long haven log in, so good to see so many new forummers as well as owners of City, welcome

no reasons for my "kehilangness" jus been realy BZ wit work, work and more
work gaji same only, sigh sian...

anyways updates, my City just did its 35k service and will be turning 2 years old
coming 27th September 2006. Problems faced :-

1) Both rear door's squeaking sound, fixed...wd40....go figure...
2) Lost of power, fixed...i dunno how, go figure...

The SC i go to is Sumber Auto in Sect 17, PJ, since my 2 year warranty is coming
up soon and i doubt with my wife's travelling it would hit 40k soon they have
obliged us by extending another month of our warranty since all our Honda car's are being sent there for service they said we are "good" customer, paiseh paiseh

I love my Honda's....

wow! anti roll bar!!!!

well, it's quite common la.. especially around 80km/h and you release the accelerator, you should hear the sound..

v40 = visibility 40% ? then mine would be v20 cuz it's a 80% dark tint.. but i've removed it already.. kantoi wif polis already hahaha.. i'm hoping to get the tints done legally

i'll be sending mine in soon la.. not sure when.. but within this 2 weeks i guess.. got lotsa things to fix

hahahahaha ...
thinking of v70 or v40 ... but v40 looks more cool ... cuz of the darker impression ... but ur v20 ... too 'kao' oready... im not cool enuf to put 'v20' hahaha

y le u suddenly dismantling ur honda city ..... planning to buy new civic isit ...

not really dismantling la.. now the authorities are going all out to nab dark tints.. u know the summon for first offence is RM500 and second offence onwards is RM1000? don't want to risk this shiet already.. after all, i had the tint for a year without any problems till a week ago that is

so at the same time, just removing what i don't need and selling them to those who can make use of the stuff

ok, I come i come...
hehe
