I see. I met two flood incidents. One was mid last year and the other was early this year. I wasn't aware of the risk that the water may entered the engine therefore i didnt took any actions, haihz..
I just went 20,000km servicing last month. It includes changing engine oil. I believe they already drain the engine oil and refill a new one. I think abit late already.

Hopefully my pistons or engine wont get rusted.

Two days ago my wife parked our car beside the coffee shop and had breakfast. After she came back, she saw this:


According to the nearby shop, an idiot driving a white toyota altis tried to parked the car but somehow bumped on to my car and ran away.
The bottom bumper was kemek and there is a deep cut. No clips were broken.
Luckily my front headlamp and metal body was not affected and the bumper is still intact. Currently I just leave it la since it will not rust, haihz..

By the way, anyone installed baby car seats here? Just discuss whether are we installing it the right way..

Yeah, idiot driver..

I doubt so. I believe our Honda city is still using Takata just that they did extra sealing process to prevent the propellant from exposing to humidity and high heat. But this is just a temporary solution. Currently those older hondas are at higher risk. After a few years, i wont be surprise if our honda city is called for recall. Well, tat is just my guess..

I am using llumar t4-50. My wife complaint it is still quite bright and hot. My daughter who sits at the rear side seats is always sun tanning. So i bought amerguard sunshade. i should have add a few hundred bucks to upgrade to llumar crystal 6.

Thanks for the feedback!

Are u using the groovy snap-on magnet sunshades for honda city? May i know how much u bought?

I am also not sure coz i bought the amerguard. I wan to know some feedback and compare the price. The snap on seems rather convenient.

Thanks for the reply. The amerguard now is selling at rm290 but not snap-on magnet. For those interested, can consider buying in 11street if got coupon.
When i just made the purchase of amerguard, i came across groovy snap-on magnet and regretted purchasing the amerguard. But i read some facebook comments that it was around rm500+. To me, i feel rm200+ for sunshades is already quite expensive, not to mention rm500+.

Thanks for your input. I just got a quote of the snap-on magnet type for our Honda city from Groovy.
4 sides: Rm370
Rear: Rm260
4 sides + rear (combo deal) : Rm580
Free delivery

Quite expensive.. Almost twice the price of amerguard.

Dmn.. i haven't received any letter from Honda regarding the battery update!

Time to share some updates.
There is something wrong with the center cabin light. The bulb seems ok because the light can light up when i move the switch at certain position. Will highlight this issue during my next service.
Quite satisfied with the amerguard sunshade. Now the rear is much cooler when on the aircon for a couple of minutes.

For those who have babies, u can consider the diono radian child car seats. I bought two diono radian r120 and installed it at the rear seats in rear facing position. Diono radian is famous for its narrow width therefore i can fit one more adult at the back. Due to it is also a booster seat, it takes up alot of legroom therefore i bought a diono angle adjuster so the front passenger seat have move back a few more inch.
Just drove to Singapore and Penang. Quite satisfied with the amerguard sunshade and diono radian car seats.

Like to ask u all sifu something. I checked my engine coolant reserved tank in the morning without starting my car. The water level was in the middle so i pour the honda antifreeze coolant to the max line. I drove a couple of minutes and i checked the engine coolant reserved tank again. The water level was 1 inch above the max line. Is this normal? Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. So it will not do any damage to the car if the water level is above the max line when the engine is still hot, am i correct to say that?

Thanks for the information!

I asked the customer service officer whether can i changed my e spec rim to v spec rims. He told me it will void the warranty if u want to claim anything that is related to the rims. They can even blame the rims for abs failure even though it is original honda rims. He say Honda has been pretty strict recently.

Nothing much we can do. We wan the 5 years warranty, we got to play by their rules.

Honda Malaysia do not want to disclose it as it will affects their sales so no one knows.

Some car makers in the US still selling new cars with defective takata airbags

Yeah.. It seems like Honda Malaysia's main priority is to send the recall letters to consumers. But whats the use of the letter when they dont even have any available stocks? When accident happens, they still dare to push the blame to consumers for not changing the airbag inflator! The more they drag, the worst their image brand will be.. But well, here is Malaysia so wat to do..
