Never delay any of them - need to be done within 1 month, or 1,000km, or else your warranty will be void. You can do any of them sooner.
MM - Maintenance Minder
PM - Periodic Maintenance - Should be done every 10,000km OR 6 months
SA - Service A (Oil Change) - Should be done every 6,000-10,000km (depending on MM) OR 6 months, alternating with SB
SB - Service B (Oil Change + Oil Filter) - Should be done every 6,000-10,000km (depending on MM) OR 6 months, alternating with SA

e.g.

Scenario 1 - warranty OK
First get car 25 Jun 2016, MM oil life 10,000km, Odometer 5km
On 5 Jul 2016, MM oil life 9,000km, Odometer 1,000km - go to 1st service - do 1k PM, No oil change, just checkup
On 30 Nov 2016, MM oil life 500km, Odometer 9,500km - go to 2nd service, do SA + 10k PM, MM oil life will reset back to 10,000km (hit mileage/MM)
On 1 Apr 2017, MM oil life 0km, Odometer 19,500km - go to 3rd service, do SB + 20k PM, MM oil life will reset back to 10,000km (hit 6 month & mileage/MM)
On 1 Oct 2017, MM oil life 1,000km, Odometer 18,500km - go to 4th service, do SA + 30k PM, MM oil life will reset back to 10,000km (hit 6 month)
On 1 Apr 2018, MM oil life 4,000km, Odometer 24,500km - go to 5th service, do SB + 40k PM, MM oil life will reset back to 10,000km (hit 6 month)
and so on and so forth

Scenario 2 - warranty OK
First get car 30 Jun 2016, MM oil life 10,000km, Odometer 5km
On 30 Jul 2016, MM oil life 9,000km, Odometer 1,000km - go to 1st service - do 1k PM, No oil change, just checkup
On 30 Aug 2016, MM oil life 500km, Odometer 6,000km - go to 2nd service, do SA ONLY, MM oil life will reset back to 10,000km (hit MM)
On 15 Sep 2016, MM oil life 4,000km, Odometer 10,000km - go to 3rd service, do 10k PM ONLY, did not reset MM oil life (hit mileage)

On 30 Sep 2016, MM oil life -1,500km, Odometer 8,000km - More than 1,000km OVERDUE on MM

Hope this clarifies A LOT of questions...

That's what I thought, and I'm probably going to continue going by. Don't wanna risk the damn warranty.

Mine city drive get 12.5km/l only  hmm.gif

My average drive never go above 15 km/l

Edited:
Thought you were driving at 145km/h. Didnt read properly

And yeah, cruising highway might give u a very high fuel efficiency at that speed.

Better still if u lock the cruise and off the eco mode. Trust me.

12-13 km/l sounds about right for city driving. That's about what I get. I've never broken the magical 20km/l mark even on the highway though. Lol. At 130-150km/h, I tend to get around 17-18 km/l which seems to be a happy medium for me. Can never find the discipline to maintain 110km/h on the highway. Lol. That said, I'm not at all surprised that cruising at 110 with cruise control will easily return FC figures in the low 20s.

Another observation is that the traffic jams or driving around your local taman really kills FC for our car. Can anyone confirm cause it could just be me being less adept and gentle takeoffs from traffic lights/junctions. Lol.

Just wanted to ask guys, mine started out pretty ok, I guess. But now, when turn my wipers on, they still leave streaks of water residue on the windscreen. It's only been 2 and a half months. Would I benefit by changing them out for silicon options or is there something else I'm missing? Apologies if this is a noob question.

All cars will exhibit this. Normal bro. Drive a bit and they'll be gone.

My brake disc after parking for 9 hours outside & rainy day. Good as new after I drive back home.

Yup, if I leave my car out overnight on a rainy day, they look exactly the same. Nothing to be worried about brother! smile.gif

do not pedal to metal before you off engine.

ensure low-rpm cruise is enough to cool down after driving long range

Or you could let your car run for a few minutes after you've parked before turning it off. That's usually what I do if I've been on a "S" mode sprint. Hehehe.

So when almost arrived destination,  we just slow down and keep low rpm that will do

Yea, I guess that should be fine. I only let the car run after parking once. When I just got the car, semangat went test and drove it somewhat hard. That occasion I parked the car and left the engine to idle for around 5 minutes before turning it off.

Shouldn't be, coz high beam is different from normal headlights. A properly levelled headlights wouldn't even shine into the front car's windows.

But yeah, I also had that kind of thought as well laugh.gif

I have to second you on that, our regular beam has a very low/short throw, a little too short in my books. It's alright for city driving but when on the PLUS, I get the feels that I can't see far ahead enough. Then again, maybe just eyesight deteriorating with age. Lol.

Drove my friend's Mazda 3 and CX3. Interior space wise, smaller than the Civic. I'm quite big sized so ymmv on this. I feel that on long journeys, I won't be that comfortable coz my legs are hitting the centre console. The back seats are also quite small and there is little leg room.

But in terms of handling, very good - pleasantly weighted steering. Engine was also quite good - not that far off from Civic's performance imho.
*
I'm a small guy, and even my knee rubs against the center console. Just too add to your point on the Mazda's engine, I don't think it's far off from the Civic's either but they feel very different in character, the Mazda makes you rev it for power, which is fun on a B road but not so much everywhere else. Long journeys the Civic has the Mazda licked IMHO.

QUOTE(Scarfe @ Feb 3 2017, 09:43 AM)
I noticed the left/right signal is too tight. Sometimes, i accidentally hit high beam when i wanna change lane. maybe that is why he high beam.

It'll loosen up soon enough. Mine had the same issue too. But its not a problem anymore.

Hi guys, can i check with you is the Auto dim rearview will function most of the time ? or only the car very far behind only function. Cuz i feel my auto dim rearview like not function. sometime the car behind light very bright but the auto dim rearview didn't function.

I find this weird. Mine works well - a little too well. The mirror dims too much IMHO, to the point where if there a car behind me, sometimes all I can see is the fella's two lights.
