Yup. Waiting for more information on this. Apparently is an updated CVT module from Japan. Not sure what is the long term effects on the grinding issues though... The Americans had it longer than us, but so far no failure/effects other than being an annoyance.

Will inform my SC when I go for my 10K maintenance on 23/12 and report back what they're saying.

Well... anti-theft measures are not usually discussed because it's counter productive to tell people what you did

Depends on how worried you are, or if you're willing to pay a bit more for extra peace of mind. You can install just a simple pedal lock, or install a more sophisticated tracking system like Cobra Connex and Katsana. We did discuss these is V1 I think.

Of course, nobody will want to tell you what they really did to secure their car

As what dirtrun mentioned, you can't turn it back on only. The engine won't turn off when it doesn't locate the key. Simple reasons as: what if the key battery is low and the car doesn't detect the key when you're driving on the highway at high speed? What if your children suddenly threw your key out the car window?

You should just think of the push start button as a normal key. You only don't need to bring the key out to turn on the car. Security wise, it's the same as a normal immobilizer key and like any immobilizer systems, it can be defeated. So don't think that push start system is any better as it's only more convenient to the car owner. If you're worried about the safety of your car, consider getting a physical mechanical pedal lock, or some kind of smart card system (tap to disable security), or other GPS locator services such as Connex & Katsana.

I think since there is a lot of people who are having problems to install Android Auto, I'll be using this post to share how I install the latest Android Auto from APK Mirror. If you don't know what is Android Auto, or APK Mirror - go Google it, I won't spend time explaining any of this to you. If you don't trust APK Mirror, stop here, and wait until Google releases it for Malaysia officially. If you fully understand this and wish to proceed to install, read on! - Caveat - I'm using the Chrome browser and Galaxy Note 3. Your experience may differ slightly.

1. Browse to APK Mirror (Android Auto) on your phone via this link: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-auto/

2. Scroll down, and choose the latest version (the latest release is Android Auto 2.5.7286 dated on 5 August 2017)


3. Scroll down, and choose the correct version for your Android - this may be confusing for some. Galaxy Note 3 uses arm. My guide here shows what happens if you download and install arm64 - completely safe, but installation will fail. You would just need to choose again - or download Droid Hardware Info to find our your Android's CPU architecture type. You only need to do this once and remember your CPU architecture type. More information here http://android.wonderhowto.com/how-to/andr...64-x86-0168051/


CPU/Kernal Architecture Type:
arm: "ARM", "armeabi"
arm64: "arm64", "AArch64"
x86: "x86", "x86abi"
x86_64: "x86_64"

4. Scroll down, and choose Download APK


5. Click OK to download


6. Wait for the download to complete, then go to your file manager (or My Files in Samsung) and click on the downloaded APK file - I usually just go to Download History as it lists all recently downloaded items.


7. A pop-up will come out saying "Install Blocked - For security, your phone is set to block installation of apps obtained from unknown sources". Click on Settings. (Can't screenshot this though...)

8. Click on "Unknown sources - Allow installation of applications from both trusted and unknown sources".


9. Leave the "Allow this installation only" checkbox. Click on OK.


10. Android Auto should install now. If it fails, it means that you installed the wrong version/architecture type. You need to select the right APK for your CPU type. Below is a screenshot of Droid Hardware Info on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3.


CPU/Kernal Architecture Type:
arm: "ARM", "armeabi"
arm64: "arm64", "AArch64"
x86: "x86", "x86abi"
x86_64: "x86_64"

You can use Android Auto even if your car isn't connected. Waze integration is not here yet, but will arrive in Q1 2017. Be patient.

Hope the guide above helps you all install Android Auto on your phone. It needs Android 5 and above though... So if your Android version is lower than 5, you need to update your OS, or get a new phone

gyno, ClicksForKicks & Nick Zelos hope the guide above helps you. Will include the guide here in the FAQs

Can I ask what phone are you using? Seems like quite a few have this same issue on Android forums. One of the suggested methods to solve this:

1. Go to Settings, Applications, Application Manager
2. Choose Google Play services.
3. Click the 3 dots on top right / menu. Uninstall updates. It might ask you to disables a service it has running.
4. Once it's finished uninstalling the updates, reboot your phone.
5. Start Android Auto and it will ask you to update Google Play services. Update it and after the update Android Auto will work

Other methods:
1. http://www.problogbooster.com/2015/12/unfo...rvices-has.html
2. Do a soft reset of your phone, reinstall Android Auto and give permissions requested
3. Plug it into your car at first use after installing and give it permissions

Cost is accurate, but total does not include Engine Oil & Filter as these are decoupled from the normal maintenance service. Read more on this in the FAQ on the first page.

Do report back if you managed to resolve it.

Actually I find this to be true. Most people just use a flimsy/cheapo 3rd party cable, which is only good for low power charging, and can't even transfer data. Use the original cable which came with your phone, or buy a good quality replacement cable.

What phone are you using bro?

Try this:
https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z2/Go...te/td-p/1130032

This may have been a bad install. You may need to clear the Google Play Services app.

Menu > Settings > Apps > Google Play Services > Storage > Clear Data

Clear the data on Google Play Store too.

And you could also try to install the arm version rather than arm64.

Glad to hear your AA works now enjoy bro!

Ok, from what I'm reading, your phone does not support AA out of the box. You may need to uninstall the Google Play Services updates again, and clear the caches/data for both services & play store. After restarting, try to install the updates for both Play Store and Play Services first before attempting to install AA. I'm not sure where you would install this on Sony, but on Samsung phones, we're using Galaxy Apps to update it.

Only after updating all of these, would you attempt to install AA again. Hope this works for you - and I'm really out of solutions for now

My solution is the same as Imcy72 below. Leave the car door slightly ajar.

Must be the same person who posted this last week

Well... the car can use 5w-30, 10w-30, 0w-30 and 0w-20. Honda recommends using 0w-20, but it's really up to the car owner which one to use according to their budget.

If you want a 2017 car, you may need to wait a while though coz I'm sure even if you get a car in January or February, it might have been manufactured in 2016

No need photo or the other guy's contact number. I had the same unfortunate experience as you. Had to report at the Sepang Traffic Police Station.

If the other party didn't renew their roadtax, it won't be an issue because if they didn't have insurance, your insurance would still cover under Own Damage - Knock for Knock - No impact to your insurance NCB if the Investigation Report sides with you saying that you are 100% at no fault for the accident.

Anyway, just need to make sure you have all the proper photos during the accident, and the other party also needs to do police report. If only 1 party does the police report, the investigating officer would have problems to complete the report - and you would have problems claiming from insurance OD-KFK. You need to forfeit your NCB to fix it under your insurance...

No need. But do follow up with the sergeant in a week - need to check the progress of the accident report and whether the other party had reported the accident - you can also ask him if he would like to have copies of the accident photo via WhatsApp. I WA'ed the accident pics to my IO last time

I'm from JB, but not sure where to install the RS spoiler. For warranty purposes, not too sure, but logically wise, if there is a need to drill a hole at the boot, your will not be able to claim warranty for rust, or waterproofing issues for the boot. If you do electrical wiring, your warranty for cabling would be void. Need to check with your SC though...

I'm keeping my car stock standard for now.

Mind if I ask which bank? 2.95% is VERY high imho. I didn't get any rebate as well - took delivery in June

Wah! Rich Man Detected anyway yes, the offer is indeed good.

Windscreen insurance should cover 100% of the cost. But you may need to top up for tinting it again.

15% of RM2400 + 6% GST.

Correct me if i'm wrong but HIP insurance panels are all Honda SC. I had the unfortunate experience of having accidents 3 times in 10 years. All 3 times are sent to the Honda SC (2 minor, 1 major) and HIP took care of it.

If you use a 3rd party Insurance Company and not HIP, the Honda SC may not be one of their panel workshop. Thus you may need to use an outside workshop, and they may not necessarily use original parts...
