Welcome bryangia! Glad you found our thread helpful. Feel free to ask us anything here. I agree with you that the fuel consumption for this car is damn good - compared to the old FD2 at least - i'm averaging at 14km/l at the moment. What about you?

I don't turn on ECON 100% of the time, probably around 30% of the time. 100% city, I got around 13.8km/l, based on my last 100% city fuelup. I'm now trying to see if I can get better FC in 100% city. I avoid rapid accelerations, and normally try to keep the car speed between 70-90kmh. I still do rapid starts from time to time though

Grats! What colour? Do post a pic of your baby when you collect later ya?

Agreed. Anyway, its to protect the catalytic converter too. I will pump only RON97 until RON95 is EURO4M in 2018

http://<paul.tan.website.address/2015/12/02/euro-5-petrol-gazetted-to-arrive-in-2025-diesel-in-2020/

Now - Diesel EURO5 (at some stations), RON97 EURO4M, RON95 EURO2M
By 1 October 2018 - all fuel is EURO4M compliant (RON95, RON97)
By 1 September 2025 - all fuel is EURO5 compliant

Normal... They all wanna play with our new car. I normally just ignore them and enjoy driving normally while they stress out by being ignored

1.5T turbo maintenace cost is only for normal servicing. They didn't include engine oil & filter cost coz it's decoupled from the normal maintenance. Basically you may need to go to SC twice in 6 months. You may need to change the oil at 7,000km (depends on your maintenance minder). You can choose to do 10K maintenance together, or just change the engine oil first, and come again at 10,000km for the normal maintenance - but without changing the engine oil.

Engine oil and drain plug washer is RM138.63 + 6% and oil filter is RM26.30 + 6%. You need to factor in labour costs too - around RM60/hour. All in all, around RM240 everytime you need to change your oil.

The website mentions this:

Engine oil replacement period depend on Engine Oil Monitoring indicator lamp or not over than 6 months
Oil filter replacement period depend on Engine Oil Monitoring indicator lamp or not over than 12 months

No problem. I will update the FAQ on page 1 up front to clear this up as well.

-Update- I have updated the FAQ on post 1. Do comment if it's understandable

First car terus Civic will add you up front

I have added in the Maintenance A & B, engine oil & normal maintenance, in the FAQ. do comment if it's understandable.

The front windor. You can see the bump at the middle of the dash board. If you have a dark tint, you may have a very big problem with this as the sensor would likely detect your car to be perpetually driving in the dusk/dawn

No TPMS in Malaysian Civic unfortunately.

Will add you up

Why is there a lot of people buying Civic as their first car? So rich!
Unfortunately, no RDS in our Malaysian Civic. Right side driver speaker crackling noise - maybe your equalizer setting is off? Freezing Spotify not too sure, never used it on AA. 1K servicing is FOC.

Follow your maintenance minder - check FAQ on page 1. IMHO just use RON97 for EURO4M fuel. Once RON95 is EURO4M, can use ROn95 too. But others may have their own opinion on this. It's really up to you.

Yours is TC model, since you have the manual headlight leveler. 0-3 position is according the number of load on your car, driver+front passenger, full trunk load, full 5 adults + trunk load etc. Check your manual on this to learn more on how to set. Please don't set your headlight any higher than necessary - you will be blinding the car in front / cars going the opposite way unnecessarily...

Your Apple Car Play maps is also integrated? My Google Maps on Android Auto is integrated with the TFT, but Apple Maps is not...

Quite a few bought from UH Car Accessories at Setapak for RM150. Bought mine from Honda though

I got something to add - The car will beep rapidly for about 2 seconds and fail to lock the car (Walk-away auto-lock enabled) when:
1. If you open and shut the door multiple times in quick succession.
2. If you walk away from the car too fast after closing the door.
3. If you stand too close to the car after closing the door.

You manually lock is it? Never done it on this car yet

remote start guide is on the front page, 2nd post. You still need to depress brake and push remote start to use the car. But keyless unlock should work normally.

Check the first post. But yours is the worst so far. Try to restart your HU (long press power button, choose restart). Mine just random beeping, and it's only sometimes, during long drives. I'll add your name to the list of owners affected. Probably need to wait until Honda Malaysia gets a software update on this.

Yes, my apologies, i meant the stop-start aka ignition button on the dash

Added the FAQ for this - you may need to go to your SA to adjust the headlight higher if it's really low. But you shouldn't aim it too high as it will blind the car in front as well as cars on the opposite lane.

What is the function of the headlight adjuster dial? When I set the dial at 0, the headlight beam is at its highest position, but when I set the dial at 3, the headlight beam will be at the lowest position. What does this do?
The headlight adjuster is for you to adjust the appropriate angle for the headlights according to your car riding and loading conditions. Follow the table below for the correct dial position

Condition	Dial Position
A Driver	0
A Driver and a front passenger	0
Five persons in the front and rear seats	1
Five persons in the front and rear seats and luggage in the boot	2
A Driver and luggage in the boot	3

Done & gratz!

Added you too

Got your PM, but lemme know your car type bro e.g 1.8 / 1.5 TC / 1.5 TC-P congrats!

Maybe you set the "instrument illumination sensitivity" to Max? Set it to Med or Min.

Looks quite decent

I'll be fueling up with RON97, for EURO4 reasons, not because of RON - K3nnYkl82 summed it up best lol!:

For me i will still pump Ron97 ... for the yengness...
imagine i drive a beat up proton wira .. pumping euro4 Ron97 .. while the cheapskate uncle driving BMW at the next pump filling up Ron95 .... Priceless

Ya bro... better don't buy. Got lots of issues that's not worth your time.

I'm guessing those numbers are just a guideline. Honda chief powertrain engineer already said that the engine is tuned to RON 91 and there is no extra benefit to pumping higher RON fuel. The only reason why we are saying to pump RON97 (or RON95 BHP coz low sulphur too apparently) is that it's EURO 4M compliant.

In any case... Mazda cars have a higher compression ratio of 14:1, and they are tuned to run on RON92

I'm finding that the Conti tyres are quite good leh. The more I drive on it, the better it is - it's either that or i'm getting used to it's flaws already

Will wait for PS4 to launch before changing
