I understand to each his own, but if u ask me bro, that spoiler makes the car look so Ah Beng la. Just because something is different doesn't mean it always looks nice.

The car in its current state is sporty enough and yet exudes maturity. Leave the Ah Beng'ness to the Vios and Myvi owners.  biggrin.gif

i shall heed your advice.

just that itchy after change white bulbs now dunno what to do wit the car.

oh another question...

i saw somewhere europe's 1.5t engines is tuned differently compared to us (200ish HP, 260nm).. could it be just software tuning?

cuz i was thinking if one day better quality petrol comes around will it be possible to retune ours as well without compromising on engine longevity or long term performance?

I think he meant that when the car is paired with android auto and the musics playing are high quality files from spotify, the car's audio system should sound very good.

That's what I understand from his post. nod.gif

Nono.

To all who have been complaining about lack of bass.

I'm pretty sure now it's got NOTHING to do with your hardware. It's software I believe.

Somehow when I plugged android auto (Samsung a7) via USB.. The lovely bass I've been missing when using CarPlay (Spotify) is back!

I didn't mess around wit the eq too.

It just suddenly sounded better. (Spotify settings was same vs when I was using CarPlay)

Tbh I have no idea why. Mayb android auto overrides the HU's eq setting or software bug or whatever!!

Long story short - CarPlay no bass, android auto = BASS

Yup and already reported to sc during my 1000km service. They did something to the A-pillar case and so far noise gone. But still monitoring though
*
cool.

what do i tell them on my service?.. i'd have to wait till my 8ish - 10k service but i wanna pinpoint the issue to them so that they can't say they don't know.


also did a drive 200km drive with 4 passengers and a half trunk luggage. you can feel the weight but the car never felt underpowered despite an added ~150KG.

i only had to floor once to overtake but that was also for only a split second...

managed 15km/l on econ.

Greetings, proud owners of the new Civic!

Have a question for you guys driving the 1.5 Turbo, I noticed this on the FAQ on Page 1: -

What is the new Honda Civic's cruising speed engine RPM?
- At 110km/h, the engine speed is at 1,800rpm for both the 1.5TC and 1.8 engines
- At 90km/h, the engine speed is at 1,500rpm for both the 1.5TC and 1.8 engines

Can I confirm you guys are getting 1,800RPM @110km/h for the 1.5 Turbo?

Coz that's not what I got from driving the test car unit over the weekend - it was closer to 2,200RPM or thereabouts when I hit 110km/h.

Appreciate any input. Thanks.

yes... on flat roads and you have to be very gentle on the throttle for a sustained period with econ on.

First few tanks will have terrible mileage. It will get better as time goes on. I clock > 600KM per 47L tank for 100% city driving (JB) nowadays.
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Just get whichever colour you want / like. If you like WOP better, then you got your answer.
*
hahaha.. i've never touched 600km per tank so far.... my right foot too itchy already.. whenever i get to kesas tol - smart tag.. i will WOT.. from Tol gate to where the lanes becomes normal lanes again can already hit 140kmh.. =p

FC is good. The CVT helps a lot. Nothing to worry about.

But as always, FC is more dependent on how you drive than the car itself. U can drive the most fuel efficient car in the world but if your driving methods are not economical, then it won't be fuel efficient for sure.

yes...

Haters will always be haters..

Even if events like this dont happen, theyll still support other makes/models - actually .. to me its their right to choose.. but what l dont like is why need to bash.. if you don't like, l understand but why hate.. there already is so much of it everywhere..
O well, it takes many views to make the world, doesn't it...

Aiya. Don't believe viral misleading info u hear on the Web la. There's so many owners in here enjoying the car ( me included ). No car is perfect from faults and this car has Japanese reliability so why worry? 5 years warranty and only isolated issues so far.

Buy it and join the club.

funny thing is now the owners stares at other owners more than non-owners stares at us..

i always feel happy when i see others on the road.. the ass is nice to look at during night time when the LEDs are turned on.
