Hi all, new here, just joined the club smile.gif
I got my TC-P on 29 June, let me share my ownership experience thus far.

Problem detected:

1) Gap between rear bumper and the car boot not even. It was perfectly fine during the time I collected the car, it might be due to heat. I brought the car to USJ express SC for rectification, they managed to resolve it. I checked the test car also, the gap not even too!!! So do check yours from time to time, the gap might not even over times with continuous exposure to hot sun. CKD common issue I presume.
2) Car alignment is off to the left. It is common problem for new car. SC resolved it during 1k service.

Driving impression:

1) The CVT is silky smooth, comparable to VW DSG, but just it eliminated the turbo kick.
2) NVH is much improved compare to 8th generation civic. I owned FD and FD2R before. Direct comparison is FC NVH much better (ok, please drop the FD2R for comparison). But still, FC engine noise intruded into the cabin once rpm over 3k, this is pretty bad.
3) Slight turbo lag …. agree?
4) It doesn’t feel like Japanese car anymore, this car feels more solid, but quality not at Conti level yet.
5) Braking power is so linear; have to apply more force all the way down to the brake pedal. No direct ‘bite’ feel.

Query to other members:

1) How to off the headlight once it is ON automatically? That might be a way, but I haven’t discovered it yet? The off button at the signal stick only works when the car is stopped? Please advice.
