Not to say that I side Mazda or bash Honda, but if reliability is your concern, the time in market is a good indicator  smile.gif  But both are Japanese, so both rather reliable perception wise.

Really hope this civic wont have much problem, the thermo turbo charge will have problem or life span actually? And should we actually need to press harder sometime to active it and let it function for a while? Last time my friend say to me that honda city or any vtec engine need let vtec function kick in , if not later will jam, because normally i drive car will stay rpm below 3k and hardly over 2.5k

Civic type is the industry norm which uses the brakes as a form of torque vectoring.

Mazda's G-Vectoring Control (GVC) takes thing into a new territory by controlling/adjusting the torque through the spark plug timing, not brakes. And unlike what the industry norm, GVC is active the moment the steering angle is changed and the ECU will take into account speed, throttle position and steering angle to calculate the optimum retardation required.

Brake actuated torque vectoring only comes active when slip is detected.
Sounds like ESC/ESP/DSC but slightly advanced system. Be great if gear box is able to divert different torque to each wheel.

Oh okey , i never know that , i just driving in ECON mode now and it really hardly to go over 2k rpm laugh.gif laugh.gif , waiting first 1k service only press harder


And if let say oil life is already negative , max honda allow is -100km to avoid void from warranty?

haha no diff with 1k km service as not oil change, so jst tekans n enjoy bro.

How u avoid wet stain after waxing?
i think my mistake is i wax out almost immediately after put on wax, and probably need curing about 10mins to 15mins as suggested

I'm using Raytech. I did mine with Lord Ditsy at Raytech Puchong last CNY. Can PM him for the price.

Before 1st service (or below 1000km), I always reminded my self to not go more than 110km/h. But after done my 1st service, straight go to highway and bo more 'pantang' already. 😂

Does anyone know how to actually set the volume for incoming calls over Carplay?

It is ear-splitingly loud in my Civic X. I looked all through the settings on the head unit, tried the ringer volume on my iPhone 6s etc - nothing has worked so far. Anyone got solution?

U..

need to attempt to get appointment - if dates are not suitable.. 'mileage' can be adjusted - at least here up north in Pg, it can..

Most crucial part of the turbocharger is the bearing, that one gone, the turbo gone.

If you want to keep your turbocharger in good condition :
1) use good quality fully synthetic oil
2) let the car idle a little bit after long driving/hard driving (around 1 minute is good enough)
3) replace the oil feed and return hose every 100k km (at least check if got soot/carbon restricting or blocking the oil flow)

Mazda GVC is not slightly more advance, it is a complete different way of thinking it. No other car manufacturer thought of using spark timing to achieve that. It is so precise to the point that the driver can't perceive it is working. You have to check out the youtube videos about this to have a good visualisation.

Individual wheel torque distribution can be done with a limited slip differential, has been around for a long time. Very complicated to explain and got a number of different engineering method to achieve this, go google about it. I read a few times also can't fully understand, really insane engineering.

Ok note , it like those car who install turbo timer for 30-60 sec b4 engine turn off

Normal driving to work and back no need to that extent, just cruise slowly when you're at your last kilometer to home will do.

Just take note to idle a little longer after long distance driving or high rev driving.

hi guys... currently my milage is 5k+KM.. the oil life A shows 4500, does it means to service at 4500KM or i still can drive 4500KM more until i need to go change Oil?

When you receive a call the next time, lower the volume as you normally would with the radio. The car has two separate volumes for calls/ringer as opposed to music. Lower it while you're in a call and it will remain that way. I haven't found a more intuitive way to do it though. Lol
