Hi folks..
Do u guys hear a "kluk" sound on reaching  the first 40km speed.  This happens on every first start of car moving to speed 40km.

Aircon off
Radio Off
Wind down windows...

Try it out. see whether u guys heard this sound on ur City or not.

Is this normal?
*
see page one bro, this happens to all new generation honda city cars. Dunno whether is normal or not, so far no prob..

Installed this a week back, very handy, unlike stereng lock which is kinda hassle.

By the way guys, normally if you get into the car, do you straight away start the engine and move the car? my cousin says have to actually twist half of the key, wait for certain lights to go off at the dash board, and then only twist the key until the engine starts, anyone else practice this?
*
I practice this, even though i not sure why haha.. Btw everytime after i started the engine, there is a blue temperature icon at the meter, I think that indicates your engine is still cold, so i've always waited until the blue indicator go off before i drive..takes around 1 to 1 and a half minute...

this actually means the lock stay there? will it be like blocking legs and etc? I ask price from klang di rm320 for the lock ...

is this the price?
*
yes bro, this is the price (around that area)... it will not block the leg whatsoever, its very easy and simple to use, look small, but quite tough too.. it is installed under ur stering wheel area, usually theft saw this and wont steal ur car cuz it will be a hassle for them to deal with, better get it bro, gonna get mine at the end of this month tongue.gif

Like that lor, got pedal lock vs no pedal lock, sure steal the one with less hassle.
Also stick your car with all sort of sticker....Cobra alarm, Viper alarm, tokcok alarm....etc. Sked them a bit. brows.gif

yeap.. actually with the current technology, any alarm can be tackled, it's just that which would be a lesser hassle for them ... haha

For keyless still can i think. You can still start the other stuff without starting the car. The push start button got 3 stage. I think press 2 time will enable all the electric function like power windows. Because i always forgot to close the side retractable window when driving waifu car...always need to press twice to start electric function again to retract the side mirrors.

So it's same concept. I think when pressed twice (without starting engine), the blue lights come on? Not too sure, didn't take notice.
*
unlike me, I've always check for this and that, so here it's my answer;

press the "engine on" button twice to enable power window, aircond, side mirror etc. pressing once will enable blue temperature icon to appear.

bros... what if procuring insurance to compensate 100% of the car price? better isnt?

but the locks will be installed too... anyone here still bank on the old gear locks? the one installed under the car? or embedded into the gear
*
Not sure what type of insurance u are using, or what policy they gave u, but mine is HIP (honda insurance package) which i double confirm with my SA, he said that it was 100% compensation insurance package...

Better go for the one with the locktech, dun go for the gear lock, looks ugly... the locktech is below the stearing wheel what more, very easy to use, with a simple pull to lock the break..

By the way owner on an E spec for a month now.

I didn't snap much photo for the DIY. So, I simply draft out the DIY idea here.. 

First thing, buy a plug and play illuminated side step. Which I get from Sato auto acc m sdn bhd on Mudah

user posted image

RM160 + RM20 postage to my place.

The side steps comes with the complete wiring and socket for our ride. Which means you no need to cut any wire. No warranty issue on this DIY. Just plug and play.

On the wiring of the side step, I tap on 2 extra bulb for the foot light (red/black wire). See the photo below.

user posted image

Bought the T5 socket for the foot light bulb on eBay. Which cost me around RM5 for each of it.
Then buy a wire holder from electric shop. Tied the bulb on it and put 3M double side tape behind. And ready to put below the dashboard. Oh ya, the T5 blue LED from eBay as well.

After the wiring work is done. Its time to open interior cover part by part to route the wire. Those steps I follow some tutorial on youtube. Important reminder. Be extremely careful to the handling of the retaining tabs and clips particularly.



Very simple right? hope you guys can DIY yourself a set like mine.  brows.gif

alright, for number 6, just want to find out is it normal for that kind of noise or not as my other friends' side mirror doesn't sound like so harsh during it "work" ma...
1. send to get them fix, and they claim fixed, and now getting worse... doh.gif
3. it's 2k-3k rpm, i don't really rev hard as used to drive manual... usually during the long straight road, i used to unintentionally drag it till 100km/h with that 2-3k rpm and i don't hear any gear shift(unless it shift so silently until i don't noticed at all la laugh.gif
well, i guess it depends on luck?
1. alright, hopefully 2nd attempt on feb or march, they will solve it later during my 10k service...

overall, my previous Myvi brake doesn't make that kind of noise, maybe it's modded disc brake from toyota's... the only time i heard that kind of noise is when i drive my myvi thru flooding area and leave it there idle hmm.gif
as for the gear shift, either i'm so "heavy foot" or maybe i should release the throttle a bit when it it 40/50kmh next time for it to change gear?
the rest of it seem like QC issue and need to get them check (i know la, dun expect honda city's quality as good as some other luxury car ma! laugh.gif )
thanks for all your feedback anyway, appreciate it! smile.gif

bro... one of the point u must take note on when buying this car is the CVT or known as "CONTINUOUS variable transmission"... there is no shifting gear on the cvt, only using ratios to adjust to the speed u are driving.. putting it simple, u have only one gear on the car instead of normal 5 speed auto transmission... from speed 1-300km, there will be no sound of gear changing or anything at all ...

Found out something new, not sure u guys knew about it or not, after turning off your engine or turning off your car power, *dont open the door first * you are still able to wind up or down on your windows..

*after you off the engine and straight away open the door, you are unable to access to the power window anymore on engine off mode*

(the function is actually to let drivers to close their windows for those that forgotten to after switching off their engine, so you wont need to start the power just to wind up your windows)

check it out smile.gif

don't get you?

2015 vs 2014?

is it mean year of manufactured?

same model but different year of manufactured?
*
yes.. even though u bought the car on 31 dec 2014, after january 1st 2015, the car is also consider one year old car... which means one year older car's value is lower than the new year car, no matter if it's just one days old...
