Last time i saw someone's honda city couldnt start outside a restaurant. The battery died off too. In the end, someone helped to jump start the car.
But i also read somewhere in the forum that someone jump start his honda city and somehow burnt some chip. In the end, cannot claim warranty from Honda.

This is purely a curiosity question. Comparing with older gen of City ie those 2005-8 version with the current, why the rear seat of current vision now can not be folded flat with booth section? And why there aren't any room/space underneath the rear sit? I am asking coz I think the full flat folding and the space beneath the rear seat of the older gen is much better ( eg for loading bulky thing into the booth,or simply a space to store umbrella). Cheers

packaging design

A car has it's limit, especially the current city emphasize so much on the interior space, some stuff just don't fit any more, i.e flat fold seat etc etc

Yesterday was the first time I drove my car above 120 and the car felt super wobbly! It was so unstable that any lorry passed by can literally feel my car swayed to the side abit... Then I decided to pop by petrol station and check my tyres pressure... Surprisingly it went up to 250-260 for four tyres.. I released it to recommended pressure to 220-210 front and rear... And indeed it felt much better..

Wanna ask.. Why sc pumped up the tyres so much? Is it to prove that city has more fuel efficiency by making it so puffy? Cuz I realized the average consumption decreased when I released the air...

SC overpump so that they don't need to pump regularly since car sits at yards for quite some time.

Also, your practise is somewhat incorrect. Your tyre is hot, thus the air inside have more pressure, giving a false positive over pump.
Next time, go check when tyre is cold. You will get a much more accurate reading.

And yes, the more the tyre is pumped, the contact surface are become smaller, thus reducing rolling resistance, giving better fc but loose grip at the same time

further maths for you to ponder.

labour charge = rm75 per hour.
suddenly i thought of this. 75 x 8 hours working a day = rm600 per day.
600 x 20 working days = rm12,000.
those mechanics earn 12k a mth?

^^THIS IS FOR ONE CAR.

If service bay can accomodate 20cars,
then 20cars X rm12k = rm240k

aplj...?!

Should be calculated like this
RM75 per hour
6 service operation simultaneously at any moment
SC open 8am to 6pm, operational 10 hours per day, closed only on Sunday.

RM75 x 10 hours x 6 bays = RM4500 per day
RM4500 x 26 day = RM117,000 per month

BUT

if there is 12 mechanics, each earn RM3500 per month, that alone is RM42,000

ALSO

Admin clerk leh, security guard leh. Rental leh, paper leh, coffee leh
