fixed by replacing whole Carpet Assy. Floor, insulator (PET Cotton) but scratched some interior surface, i still find it hard for me to accept this mistake.
HM higher management will discuss on my case tomorrow, not sure whether they will compensate me or replace the car.

sigh... i feel bad for you. if i were you, i also couldnt accept this stupid mistake did by HM. Hopefully HM will give you a satisfying compensation of this incident

Do anyone here know about the turning off tilt sensor and the wifi sensor? I tried pressing these two button but it only blinked red light once. Or is it automatically turn on and off? The only buttons i can turn it off or on are the parking and vsa.

just realised that the remote start unable to start the car engine, only allowed the aircon compressor running only.

for long term , i think affect to the car battery.

how is it possible? blink.gif mine the engine is running and the aircond compressor starts running as well after 1-2 seconds the engine started.

Hey guys, do you know what is this light for? Is yellow colour like signal light but is not. It looks rather confusing. Newbie here. [attachmentid=7230750]

These called the side marker lights which make the vehicle's presence, position and direction of travel clearly visible from oblique angles

Just in case any of you missed the post at the Honda Civic X Malaysia FB Group, Wong KN went to the Honda Malaysia Hari Raya open house and had a chat with their product managers.

This is his update on the startup grinding sound:

OK, first posts about the startup noise on cold/warm start. I talked to both Civic product owner and head of marketing department (a quite technical guy) and both says they are unaware of this problem/issue (I trust both of them when they say they are unaware). Thing is they depend on feedback and data from dealers/service centers as 'official data' and so just random rantings or complaints on the net or social media will not do. But basically, both of them -are- eager to know more about this issue because they don't want it to turn into something big before it hits them. They are grateful to be made aware of this but both totally have no idea on what it is.
My suggestion (please understand I am -not- affiliated with Honda Malaysia in any way. I am just trying to help).
1. If you can replicate the problem, highlight it to your service center the next time you take your car for service. Reproduce it in front of the service advisor and ask them to take a look at it. Ask them to feedback if it is supposed to be 'normal' or 'something they need to look at'. At least this will get fed back to HM.
2. If you can reproduce the problem, someone, TAKE A VIDEO. Start the car with the noisy engine and take a video. Then take a video of a 'quiet' start (for comparison and reference). POST IT HERE. I will feed it back to HM (I have my ways). I -cannot- promise any concrete action but only that I will try my best to get this issue to their attention so they know about it. Whether you get any resolution depends on HM.
OK, back to you guys.

This is his update on maintenance:

Second post. This one is about the service interval A and B (oil change and standard service). Yes, it can be irritating and inconvenient if you have to send your Civic to oil change and service separately, esp if they are near apart. Officially, if your two service intervals are 1,500km or less apart, the service advisor -should- advise you that you can opt to do BOTH oil change and the service together at the same time. I.e. say the info advises that oil change is due at 8,800km mileage. Standard service mileage will be at 10,000km. That is only 1,200km apart. If you are a heavy user, this means you might well first go do oil change, then a couple of weeks later have to go back again to do the 10,000km service. But HM 'official' stance is you can/should do both. I.e. merge 8,800km oil change and 10,000km service together at 8,800km mileage. So you only have to go once.
But no, they still advise to pay more attention to the oil change. I.e. DON'T purposely delay the oil change (in the scenario above) to maybe 9,500km just because you don't want to do your 10,000km 'standard' service early. Follow the oil change as priority.

Update: I am sorry, there was an error in my post. The correct interval difference is 3,000km, not 1,500km. Meaning if your oil change flashes at 7,000km and later, you can elect to do the standard service of 10,000km together with the oil change. And similarly for later services, as long as they are within 3,000km mileage. Once again, advised never to delay the oil change just so you don't lose out in the standard service interval. HM advises that these are documented in the 'Quick Start' Guide that is shipped with your new car, pages 5 and 6.

I have slightly updated the FAQ on page 1 to reflect this information.

Read about this engine surging and hesitation while accelerating/hold the idle speed to certain rpm. Something to observe of. Most of them solved by updating the TCM (Transmission Control Module).

How long did it take for SC to change the compressor?

It is done within a day. But in my case, they have replaced my car's compressor twice while the car was with them.

At least they managed to get it done within a day. thumbup.gif

They didn't fix mine because they cant reproduce the issue.

Really? This is what im worried of. Perhaps need to ask @willie which SC he went to because tht SC is aware and have record of this issue so it is easier for us to claim/fix it
