QUOTE(jack bauer @ Jun 29 2016, 09:17 AM) oo yes need to fill a form, can get it at the angka giliran counter. What's the details required to be filled in the form?once you purchased the number, just give the details to SA for car registration purposes. I bought a running number few years back and the process is very fast. Owner can also buy the running number thru JPJ online portal - MySikap. This is even super easier but the car must be under your name, cannot buy for other people even spouse & relatives. Anyway you have to go to JPJ office to register you username & password. |

QUOTE(jack bauer @ Jun 29 2016, 09:25 AM) can't remember exactly the details but the usual stuff owner name, IC, address, desired number etc.. Ok. Just wondering if they might require info which I don't have e.g car details. Anyway WD...A will start later today. Dunno why JPJ re-started the tender for WD...E again today.

QUOTE(wkc5657 @ Jun 29 2016, 10:06 AM) You can drive anywhere and anyhow you want, modern cars don't really need to follow bulat bulat on breaking in already. Modern materials sciences and engineering solved that. Exactly! A lot of that 'breaking in' is for older generation cars. Just enjoy the car and follow the service schedule. Just ensure no hard acceleration and braking for the first 1,000km. Keep RPM to max 3,000 and speed below 150kmph. And you should be fine. Ull cover 1,000km fast enough. Most important is the first service cuz u need the first change of engine oil. After that whack the car as hard as u wish. |

QUOTE(berann @ Jun 29 2016, 10:13 AM) Turbo engine with 220nm torque from 1700rpm not really need to rev the engine high.. can easily go up genting. So wont really stress the engine. Unlike N/A engine really need to rev 4k-5k rpm to go up.. Went up genting once with my frz Golf 1.4TSI.. Relax saja with plenty of power to go up unlike my Honda City scream until engine going to burst and still moving up slowly.. The torque curve starts at 1,700RPM right? So max torque is only reached at 5,500RPM. |

QUOTE(unitron @ Jun 29 2016, 10:17 AM) Why no good.. most 2.0L get 280 - 350 km per full tank in city driving. No la this is not correct. My previous Kia Optima K5 (which is quite a heavy car), I can easily get about 480km in 100% city driving and I don't drive economically since I installed a booster. That's with a 70L tank. Even my current F10 520i I get about 470km per full tank in 100% city driving. Civic tank is 50L right? This post has been edited by cybermaster98: Jun 29 2016, 10:32 AM |

QUOTE(GeekinE90 @ Jun 29 2016, 10:25 AM) A few personal observations after 2 days of driving the car This would be expected since Honda is a relative newcomer to the turbo engine segment. If ure used to driving German marques, then the lack of engine refinement for the Honda 1.5T will be a noticeable difference. But for most Civic owners here who aren't used to owning/driving German turbos, they wouldn't notice the lack of refinement.1) Good -Nice steering weight and rack ratio. Direct and seating position makes the car feel sporty and easy to drive - Auto brake hold is well programmed. Works better than my own car which can sometimes grab the brakes too abruptly when I want to keep moving slowly. - Cabin materials is nice and while driving it feels comparable to German C segment cars. The smooth and meaty leather steering wheel makes up for a lot of this. - Responsive engine + CVT for cruising around. Car glides very nicely on the roll at higher speeds - Stock Sound system is not bad at all playing Spotify at extreme quality settings. My expectations were much lower so I was pleasantly surprised. - Lots of cubby holes and compartments for kick knacks, keys, cards etc. 2) Gripes - No glove box lights - No vanity mirror lights - No rear passenger reading lights. Only roof and front passenger/driver lights. - Radio reception is poor. - Garmin GPS is not integrated to the car telemetry and needs time to find/lock satellites unlike German car OEM Navi systems which always work even without satellite line of sight. - No electric seats for front passenger. - NVH could be better, as engine roar can be quite noticeable on harder acceleration. Expected better based on reviews. - Not a smooth silky refined engine sound and is a bit rough sounding on hard acceleration. Overall, this C segment car definitely feels a few notches up the usual Jap C segment cars. Can compare with German marques in my opinion, so Honda has done decently well in bench marking the car to German rivals. |

QUOTE(dares @ Jun 29 2016, 10:34 AM) A torque curve starts at whatever RPM the dyno machine starts polling in the graph. Alright. Noted. So the 1,700-5,500RPM range is a flat plateau instead of an increasing curve like the horsepower.For the 1.5 VTEC turbo, it attains max torque at 1,700 RPM and stays there until 5,500 RPM, after where it will taper off. That's the theory. As opposed to a NA engine (eg. 1.5l on a Honda City/Jazz), where it peaks late at 4000-5000RPM then immediately tapers off. |

QUOTE(unitron @ Jun 29 2016, 10:37 AM) I think hard braking is a must to bed in the new brake pads. I do it everytime I change brake pads. Ure probably right. I used my F10 as a benchmark for the RPM. 180kmph at 3,000RPM. You want it to work at optimum level in case you need to do an emergency brake. Imagine suddenly you need to do e-brake but your brand new pads haven't properly bedded in, your stopping distance increase. I would say keep RPM to max 5k... 3k is way too low. For me normally I'll whack to red-line just before an oil change for new engines / re-built engines. The only possible problems I see are the journal bearings... but with modern material, part tolerances, part design and proper engine oil viscosity. This shouldn't be a problem. At what speed does the Civic hit at 3,000RPM and 5,000RPM? |

QUOTE(unitron @ Jun 29 2016, 11:48 AM) Let me clarify... I benchmark Civic VII and Civic VIII 2.0L fuel consumption in City driving. So possibly their tanks are smaller since they are C segments. Cannot reach 400km per full tank in City driving. After swap to Type-R engine... even 300km in highway driving is a struggle. D segment tanks are usually 70L. |

QUOTE(kyle9 @ Jun 29 2016, 05:10 PM) What the SA mention to me is that because he didn't offer me additional discount and if i wanted to purchase tint, i will get the price minus his commision. The price list the SA show me is 2.6k for Diamond 6. If according to your % of commission, 800 is about right. Would any SA sacrifice his commission of RM800? Especially for a hot selling car like the Civic?Anyway, i will be more careful and check thoroughly first. Thanks for the info. Bro, as I advised u in PM, the tint shop they use is not from Llumar. There is another authorised shop along Jln Imbi. All Llumar authorised dealers will not drop price below RM2,800. Even Regal Valet said their price is RM2,800. Putting a Llumar sticker on your tint doesn't mean its from llumar. If you want, do your coating and Llumar Diamond 6 at Regal Valet. Ill speak to the owner for u. |

QUOTE(fooj @ Jun 29 2016, 08:06 PM) The modern steel buddy , I saw she took my car picture too 😳 What a forumer said earlier is very true (in my opinion). Dark colors don't bring out the best in this car. Bit of a shame actually. Today I saw the Modern Steel and Red in bright sunlight. The red looked better but the Modern Steel looked dull. More of an oldie color. Looks fine in the shade but in the day time especially on the grey road, quite dull. Best color for this Civic with its modern design and chrome bits is the White and Lunar Silver (in my opinion). Even a carbon black (blueish) similar to the BMW 5 Series would look quite nice with this car. Anyway still a very good car and value for money regardless of the color. |
