That's possible. In both occurrences, I had my foot on the brake pedal while adjusting my seating, wearing seat belt, etc. It's possible I may have lifted the feet a bit in the process.
If you don't disengage the parking brake and rely on the electronics, won't it increase the wear and tear to the brakes? Or does the system not apply torque until it has disengaged the parking brakes?
*
No, it won't increase the wear and tear bro. It was designed that way, so do try it out!

if i want release the parking brake without starting engine? how to do it? lets say i want move my car out abit from my house for DIY car wash...normally if vios i press start stop button to ON position so i can put in N and release parking brake
*
Hmmm, not 100% sure coz never tried to release parking brake while engine still off - But I'm sure it's possible if you turn it on "ACC Mode" by press start stop button twice without pressing on the brake pedal, then press brake pedal while pressing down on the parking brake switch.

If the car is on brake hold, turning off your engine would immediately engage the parking brake automatically - so I'm sure it doesn't need the engine to be turned on to engage / disengage the parking brake. But if you have a flat battery, i'd imagine you're screwed sweat.gif

The default 0W-20 engine oil is fully synthetic. No one talks about it coz everyone is using it whistling.gif

Just notice there is a bar on the meter panel with 0, 20 & 40 interval. I guess it is an indicator for fuel economy. Any tips to achieve maximum 40 always? It keep moving between 0 to 40...
*
The only way you can get maximum 40 for a long time is by driving down a mountain, with either very lightly tapping on the accelerator, or not hitting the accelerator at all brows.gif the best you can do is driving 110-120 on the highway on a consistent basis - you can hit 20km/l easily this way, as long as you're very light footed in keeping those speeds.

Guys,

What is your estimation of 1.5TC's resale value after 5 years? Can it still be at least RM80k??
*
My previous 2011 FD2 sold in 2016 for RM75K to a used car dealer. Quite sure it'll be the same this time too

Mine normally will full speed when start car not long.. then will return to normal speed.

But yesterday when I tried to put at 18 degree, the fan is at highest speed all the time... loud like jet turbine
*
Did you set it on auto? 18 deg means that it'll try to achieve 18 deg cabin - so that's why it'll go crazy high speed... in our hot weather temp of 30deg, it'll take a long time to achieve those temp... normally, i set 22deg in the morning, but 24deg in other times. Cabin is cool enough imho

It's the radiator fan....
But is this normal? Becose the radiator fan is really really loud... and it last like 20 to 30 mins or more if I set temperature to 18 degree
*
If radiator fan then yes la bro. Same as your aircond compressor. They need to work extra hard to blow cold air into the cabin, especially if there is a big gap between the target temp (18 deg) and actual cabin temp (30 deg). Confirm 100% fan speed.

If you need to set 18 deg to feel cool in your cabin, you may need to get your compressor checked... it may need to be replaced.

Have driven my TCP for 9 months so far my engine oil remainder is still matching with my service interval mileage. My ride is 80% city PJ - KL and 20% highway long distance travel. Wanted to know is it normal or most fellow turbo owner here have the same service minder A/B = service interval mileage?
My ride is racechip ultimate installed.

Mine the same - no racechip, stock standard TCP

Mine got about 6 to 8km/l  sad.gif

Not sure why, talked to SA and technician, they say it's NORMAL?

I drive my car as gentle as it can be, no hard acc or anything...

Just done my 1st service, let's see how is it from now on though.

QUOTE(zester @ Apr 20 2017, 01:25 AM)
My FC not great either. Always between 8-12km/l

Unlike when I first got it and was on Shell RON 95... Could RON 97 play a role somehow?
*
Answer this:

How long is your daily commute (in minutes)
How far is your daily commute (in km)
Do you drive / live in hilly areas?
Do you "warm up" your engine by starting up and letting the engine run for a few minutes?
Do you "cool down" your engine by letting the engine run for a few minutes after arriving at your destination?

Generally:

1. Short commutes will reduce FC and long commutes increase FC
2. Keeping engine rev below 2,500rpm during acceleration and below 2,000 rpm while cruising will increase FC
3. Hilly areas (going uphill and downhill) often will reduce FC
4. Driving below 70km/h on average, will reduce FC
5. Keeping your trunk filled with stuff will reduce FC (more mass to move the car)
6. Bad jams, will always ALWAYS negatively impacts your FC

Shouldn't it be short commutes will increase average FC and long commutes decrease average FC?

QUOTE(zester @ Apr 20 2017, 01:26 PM)
You got reduce and increase FC mixed up

Hilly area and heavier trunk uses less petrol? Cause that's what reduce FC essentially means right? Reduce fuel consumption

For a moment there I was considering revving above 3.5k rpm each time to save fuel biggrin.gif

On a side note, I normally don't rev pass 2k... 2.5k reving is pretty fast already for this car
*
LOL! My sincere apologies. Yes, I said it the wrong way, I meant improve FC, and worsen FC.

QUOTE(Jason .S @ Apr 20 2017, 02:14 PM)
I don't rev hard, but only during overtakes, which I rarely did

Bad jams is the one though  mad.gif  driving in KV is insufferable
*
No need to cooldown engine - but some people do though. Same with warming up engine, you don't need to wait long, and just drive off slowly. For city driving, your fuel consumption is quite normal.

Anyway, my amended statement:

1. Short commutes will worsen FC and long commutes improve FC
2. Keeping engine rev below 2,500rpm during acceleration and below 2,000 rpm while cruising will improve FC
3. Hilly areas - going uphill and downhill often will worsen FC
4. Driving below 70km/h on average, will worsen FC - target speeds should be between 80-110km/h whenever possible without hard acceleration, or braking often.
5. Keeping your trunk filled with stuff will worsen FC (more mass to move the car)
6. Bad jams, will always ALWAYS worsen your FC

Mind I ask why below 1000KM FC is bad? shouldn't it be the other way around, newer, means better FC...

Sorry, I'm not very good in car mechanics.  smile.gif

Oh! Your car is new is it? Yes, first few tanks (below 1K km) your mileage will be terrible. Brand new engine - piston rings need to be seated properly etc. The mileage will be better afterwards...

Is this your first brand new car? All new cars will behave like this...

Reach SC. They SA try on it then it was okay
😂😂😂
The SA told me need to left there to check and only weekdays can do so.Now they cannot do anything.
Seem like the Honda SC is getting worst.They told me to back and try if it occurs again only send again.
I ask the SA if it occurs again and i unable to lock the car how?
His reply was epic,told me to manual lock the car. But i told him the alarm system will keep ringing.I being told to hold the remote and disable the alarm sound whenever it trigger.
Is he trying to tell me to sleep beside my car. I really kena facepalm.
I'm suspecting is the software in the HU go haywire. The other SA also say the same thing when i told the situation.
Hopefully wont happen again.

Hmm, I think next time need to try to turn on your car again, put it neutral, put on park, then try to turn off the car - I agree that this is something that you shouldn't have to do - seems like there are gremlins in your car...

Walk away auto lock is not time based, but distance based. When all the doors are closed, the the key holder walks away from the car, the car will auto lock itself - were you running away from your wife? laugh.gif

Another is timebased lock - you're still around the car - less than 2 meters away - the car will autolock itself around 30 seconds after all the doors are closed by default iinm.
