I was very confused about the servicing of our cars. But after reading these threads, seems like the SCs are just as confused if not more.

QUOTE(dirtrun @ Nov 24 2016, 04:39 PM) Didn't even get as far as the charges. Was confused initially about the A/B service, and then the mileage service intervals. Only recently found out that we have to do both instead of whichever comes first. I've heard people who manage to sync the A/B service intervals with their mileage ones and get both done together thus saving them the extra trip. But it also does seem that the SCs are genuinely confused about the service schedule for our cars. Is this the first Honda to run on a schedule like this? Pardon the noobness - first Honda. |

QUOTE(ciklan @ Nov 25 2016, 01:11 AM) I went to Honda showroom in October with the intention of booking 1.8 but i left that day with the booking of 1.5TC. Factors for choosing the later: Now that you mention it, true also la. FCs all bombing down the fast lane. Lol.1. The loan interest is quite attractive so that i can opt for additional 10K loan without adding too much into my monthly installment budget. 2. The leather seat is a must for me since my son is allergic to dust. 3. 17 inches rim looks way better. That was my logic when i did the booking. Since I was driving Honda Insight for daily commutes, I did not think I need the 1.5TC power since I was driving very light-footed and since I used to own Civic FD1, i think 1.8 power is enough. I did not regret my decision now since 1.5TC is fun to drive. I do not spent most of my time driving in the right most lane (like the majority of Civic FC owners that I have encountered on the road) but there power is there when i need it. Even with econ mode on, going uphill or overtaking on highways can be done rather effortless. Just my 2 cents. |

QUOTE(rayhvs @ Nov 25 2016, 12:23 AM) Now come to my dilemma. Thinking to take 1.8s or 1.5tc. I may not need such powerful car at the moment but worry that i might regret for not taking 1.5tc in the future. 1.8 power is decent to me but i don't like the rim and fabric seat. If i would upgrade my rim to 17 inches, would it impact to engine power? If i go for 1.8 with some upgrade like wrap leather seat and change bigger rim, does it worth to do that or i just go for 1.5tc better? Some of you may have same situation like me, how do you overcome your own frustration and make the choice? Never thought i needed the power too. I came from a Viva, so the 1.8 would be more than powerful enough. But like yourself, couldn't stomach the fabric seats. Ended up with the 1.5. I have a very uncle driving style, but I have to say the way the powertrain is tuned, it makes overtaking very effortless. The extra power also helps when you're coming out of a junction or merging into traffic; quick traffic especially. And if you drive like an auntie, you'll get 14-15km/l. Thr way I see it, win win. Hehe. Apart from the extra purchase price and the weird servicing schedule. |

QUOTE(rayhvs @ Nov 25 2016, 11:16 AM) Guys, thank you for the feedback. Has anyone here did install the LED headlamp on your 1.8 or 1.5TC? Is it costly to do so? Saw someone on one of the FC facebook groups had them installed. If I remember correctly, costs the guy RM3-4k. So, if you want the lights, go for the TC-P. |

QUOTE(0168257061 @ Nov 29 2016, 05:07 PM) If compared to City one.. Funny that you mentioned this, my 1.5 TC gets wayyy better highway fuel consumption figures than my gf's Saga. Around town the economy is around the same; if not slightly better. So, in terms of running costs, probably works out to the same a Proton. For a car with close to double the power, very reasonable IMHO.macam more or less same. If compare City to Proton Saga.. all go SC service..also around the same |

QUOTE(Eternalgl0ry @ Nov 30 2016, 01:10 AM) I've got a rattling noise from that area as well although i think its coming from inside the dash close to where the steering column is. Planning to get it looked it when i go in for an oil change. Some of the guys here have had it fixed. Apparently it's the simple matter of tightening something. |

QUOTE(Gyno @ Nov 30 2016, 05:31 PM) Hi, anyone manage to get android auto to work? I tried downloading from apk mirror, but ntg seems to work on my Samsung note 5. Any sifu can help? Friend of mine tried it on my car, although not with a Note 5. I believe you have to enable it in settings on the phone first. Cause, when we first plugged it in, it didn't work either. He did some fiddling, connected it to the car, and lo and behold, it worked. I'll try to get more info as to what he did on his phone. |

Thanks to all for the AA guides. I use carplay myself, but I'm sure it will be helpful to a lot of people. It already has been. Kudos to the guys who took the time to type out those guides. Siap dengan screenshot.
Also, i noticed that GoogleMaps on AA supports directions in the instrument binacle. Similar to how it is with the HU stock navigation app. But AppleMaps doesn't. GoogleMaps FTW. |

QUOTE(v88 @ Dec 2 2016, 09:30 AM) When i go pump petrol, i take the key with me, leave the passenger inside the car, problem is the car will auto lock if i walk away, and since passenger inside the car so will trigger the alarm. I leave the key in the car and ask the passenger to lock the car from the inside. What should i do if i wanna take the key with me but also leave the passenger inside the car in this case? |

QUOTE(bb68 @ Dec 8 2016, 10:44 AM) I am very close to get one in days. Serious questions needed some opinion as follows: 1. Navigation doesn't make much of a difference since your car will come with CarPlay/AndroidAuto and hence Apple/Google Maps. Another difference that maybe you missed is dualzone climate control. I didn't really care for it before as my previous car doesn't have it, but now that I do, I wouldn't buy another car without it. You'll never fight with your BF/GF/Husband/Wife over the AC temperature ever. Lol. Can't put a price on that can you? As for the lights, I guess that's subjective. Is it worth the 8k? Hell no. But I couldn't resist. So went with the TC-P.1. Worth to add 8K for LED + Navigator? 2. Which is the best dealer offer the best discount in December? 3. Will other new variant come to Malaysia in 2017? 4. Saw China variant with sun roof. Available in Malaysia? 2. As for SAs, scroll a few pages back, you'll find a few. Some of the guys here got 6k worth of rebates. 3. Don't think so anytime soon. Don't think Honda will bring in the hatchback, if they do, I'll kick myself. 4. Nope.

QUOTE(bb68 @ Dec 8 2016, 04:14 PM) Thanks for the feedback. Ya, i overlook the dual aircon control, that useful to me. I don't think you can break it down like that. Saw some guy on one of the Facebook groups selling the LED lights for 7.3 k which is crazy. so if i breakdown the cost, it will be like LED 4K + Navigator 1.5K + Dual auto 2K + chrome handle 0.5K = 8K |

QUOTE(brandon8921 @ Dec 8 2016, 05:09 PM) I heard outside shop selling the LED headlights for civic around 4k+ but require to cut wire and settings ECU??? Or reset "something" because of auto headlight things. Not sure about this.. correct me if i'm wrong Yup. I've heard this a lot too; including from a friend with a TC. Swapping the lights to the LED units will void your warranty. |
