QUOTE(lil_flank @ Mar 25 2016, 02:04 PM) Yeah. Coolant above the max line is still ok.. No harm is done. At least Honda SC uses Type 2 coolant & not hose waterTotal bill for 20k km servicing is Rm310.30. The pricing is slightly different from the honda website. This is because the engine oil stated in the Honda website is mineral oil where else the engine oil recommended by the Honda service center is SN 0W-20. I told the customer service officer do not fill the engine oil above the max line. I also inform him not to pour any coolant because i already top up with the Honda antifreeze coolant type 2. Just now got the car. Checked the engine oil and coolant level. Engine oil level was ok but they go and top up my coolant above the max line by 2cm <face palm>. |

QUOTE(ericlaiys @ Apr 29 2016, 08:25 AM) Honda City is always plagued by starter motor issue. My 2010 also had a starter issue & was replaced in a recall by Honda. The current starter motor I am using is DENSO (much better quality than the original that came with the car). |

QUOTE(beebee @ May 26 2016, 09:52 AM) guys how to check the status of the recall for battery or airbbag? mine is 2015 year made but when i key in my chassis, there is a product update and ask me to wait for contact, waited for 1 month but nothing yet, now driving also feel scared So far, the death cause by airbag involved only the Honda City from year 2003 to 2008. As far as I know, there are no incident involving Honda City year 2009 till current. I guess Honda is playing it safe by replacing the airbag since it was also made by TAKATA. |

QUOTE(cempedaklife @ May 28 2016, 08:02 AM) 2009 variant is 24" and 14". I just got one pair of silicon branded tswb from 11street. After vouchers just rm49. Way better than sumo brand. Hahaa. Brothers selling each wiper blade for rm3 so a pair is rm6 only. Worth using since you can throw them away and replace a new wiper as they are dirt cheap. |

QUOTE(cenkudu @ May 28 2016, 08:50 AM) not sure my question are the relevant with city as I am about to service my CRV for 10k. seriously considering these two types of full synthetic engine oil OW-20 or slightly expensive 0W-30. Which one is better for occasionally highway use (Karak) and majority city driving? The 0w30 is the better oil but fuel consumption will be a little bit more.through phone call they also recommend adding rm 70 for fuel additive and injector cleaner. i rarely used fuel additive before unless when my engine getting older. as newbie would appreciate comment. |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ May 29 2016, 01:10 AM) Get Honda Jazz Hybrid wipers from Hingan Auto... About rm130+ for a set... Wow! RM130 is expensive. Is the genuine Honda wiper made by Nippon Wiper Blade (NWB)? Because you can get NWB for your car at about RM50+ a set. It's basically the same thing.Been using mine since late 2014 until today and it's still smooth and quiet... [attachmentid=6729229] [attachmentid=6729234] |

QUOTE(eddie2020 @ May 29 2016, 01:45 PM) Mean oem use nwb? Doubt so.. Dont feel it long lasting.. Lucky I using repellent.. If not those wiper smearing effect.. Wondering should replace whole silicone wiper or blade itself only Yup, when I replaced the original blade, it had NWB label only. NWB is the genuine maker for wiper blades for japanese car makers.Btw did you guys lift up the wiper when Park in hot sun? Lol http://www.nwb.co.jp/company/index_e.html |

QUOTE(lil_flank @ Jun 21 2016, 04:31 PM) Time to share some updates. Coolant level increase when engine is hot is normal.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! |

QUOTE(lil_flank @ Jun 21 2016, 05:48 PM) 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? Yes, no damage as long as it is in the coolant reservoir tank. The max level is there just to put a cap so that you won't fill up the whole coolant reservoir tank. |

QUOTE(Think_Different @ Jun 23 2016, 11:34 AM) I want to know also if we can change our self. Those filter they charge me rm99 during my 10k service. But no stock at that time. They call it element filter if im not mistaken. Cannot change yourself as long as your car is still under warranty. Spare parts shop is selling on average RM25 for the pollen filter. |

QUOTE(chuckiee @ Jun 23 2016, 11:47 AM) I think it's really depends on the SC that you guys went. During my last 10k service, i just told them don't need to change as I've changed it. They were okay with it. Of course ok for now but later when you want to claim warranty on related parts, it will be NO-K!! |
