2005 VTEC owner here. Only clocked 5k mileage so far.

Problems so far :-
1) Lousy front speakers - flat sound. Dismantled and upgraded, have to cut bigger hole in the door frame to fit new ones.
2) Plastic creaking squeaking sounds, especially when up and down bumps or potholes (suspect somewhere at dashboard) - SC cannot fix within normal service time (lazy sh1ts imo)
3) Fuel consumption (18 sen/km) more than friend (15 sen/km)
4) Rear brake light fused - replaced at SC, but warranty not cover

Anyone tried those foam thingy that's supposed to stop all cabin noise?

As for driving style, I never accelerate hard... just normal city driving... mostly stop go stop go in traffic. Always put to neutral, if possible, when not moving. Hardly use power auto or manual gear features on steering too. cry.gif

2) They usually have to dismantle the dashboard to find the problem, usually worried they will create more problems than solving it thats why they usually don't want to  sweat.gif

3) Depends on the way people drive I suppose.

Half highway half city?!!

For me daily travel is 20km in 30mins (morning) and 20km in 45mins - 1 hour (evening). Weekend less than 20km total.

Just found out that Honda SC gives free oil during warranty service... but using cheap Honda oil?!!!

What oil do you use after warranty? What about coolants and other fluids?
