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

Bro,

U shld drive with the turbo meter on ur display - then you ll know tat our turbos activate from 1400 rpm..

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?

Really disappointed with Honda QC.

Just less than a week old, my car now has a constant rattling sound from the steering wheel horn cover. When press lightly on the upper horn cover, the sound is gone.

And there is this occassionally really LOUD rattling sound from the push start button. Arghhh..

Now need to on music louder to make forget bout all these annoying noises. Speaking bout music, I read from previous post that some forummer complain bout the bad quality of the speaker? But mine seems pretty good with punchy bass. Honda changed the speaker?
*
Sound,

Is pretty subjective.. it tickles differently for different ppl.. To an audiophile, de ori speakers are crap, to others - its not bad.. n to de rest - maybe its a lot better than their previous ride's..

Car washing

is very taxing.. its even considered 'exercise' for some..
So its common to 'pay' for someone to do it for you.. biggrin.gif

hi guys, as i know fc have speed limit at 208km/h
my question is, anyone went to disable it? need to remap right?
*
Yes..
Race chip can't do it..
Hondata reflash can.. l heard..
For the first question - my answer is - its not cheap and it voids warranty.. N ...
I am pretty sure it wont help the car's durability .. much..

Very true. Lets say 5% out of 10,000 civic owners got complain.. 500 ppl posting here vs

Jetta owners 30% out of 500 got problem = 150 ppl posting in VW forum..

Hi guys,

For those who had applied fusso 12 months coat, does your car still get stained?

My car still can get stained and need to rub quite hard with shampoo to get it off.

My car is white colour.

Thanks!

Wax..

is sacrificed .. l assume 'coatings' do the same..
Its a myth tat coatings means no need to wash.. IMO..

Hi guys.. am expecting my 1.8 MS civic this coming friday.. and was thinking to add Modulo BK (or atleast ducktail) at outside acc shop.. I am well aware that my action will cost me my warranty being void but can someone here can clarify or confirm which part's warranty are gonna affected?

like for spoiler since there's some electrical works done and punching holes onto the bonet, there goes the warranty for the whole bonet and and tail lights(i believe the installer gonna pull the wire for spoiler light from here).

but other part of bodykits? rear, side and front skirting will affecting what actually?

Logic states..

only de touched [modded] parts le.. but legally speaking once you touch sumting, they have the rite to void warranty.. onus is for us to prove em wrong.. n u know how 'easy' tat is..

Not sure if I'm the 1st that meet this problem, this morning I found that my center display start having problem cry.gif
It will leave some shadow of the previous interface at the current view......
I also found that the "Red" color was less visible, everything looks very pixelated.
Pls see the photo below for clearer picture....

I need some advice, did I need to remove the by-pass Y cable b4 send to warranty?
Will Honda change the whole unit or just the display? icon_question.gif

Most definitely..

If u leave it on, they ll blame it on the 'unauthorised product' being incompatible la or wat not..

Hi all,

Anyone has changed to sport springs? Between TEIN S TECH and Eibach Pro-Kit, which one offers more lowered look?
*
Hi,

I have used both Eibach [now on wifeys Jazz] n Tein Flex Adjustables [ FC ]..
On which is lower.. l guess its de teins as l tend to scrape more on it then my wifeys jazz..
Besides tat.. the Teins ride a lot firmer.. Eibachs are just nice as lowering springs go..

bro u seat on lowering spring..you got adjust camber? because once the sit down the lower arm push more forward and make negative camber
*
Nope..

Never bothered.. tyres will eat up on one side[for de Jazz.. not yet experience it on de FC.. yet] but since tis is like a 2/3 year affair, itll be time to change it anyway..
I'd understand if you are a hi-mileage driver and you are concerned abt tis..
Handling wise, it dont make any difference.. still increase confidence..

will become bumpy ride? how many mm lowered?
it is too sweet low down and 10degree negative for rear...kekeke
*
IMO..
only a very slight difference on the eibach... n more pronounced firmness on the Teins.. althou' all tings considered, one's a whole system and de other stilll uses standard shox..

I tink only ard 10mm [all round] on de eibach/jazz n maybe around the same for de teins/fc but a lot firmer for de teins/fc..
Like l said previously.. if just for de sake of looks [n maybe just a tad better handling] , go fo de eibachs.. full systems are a different beast altogether..

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.

They like tat one ..
I guess you have no choice but to leave de car for them to check at their leisure.. they dont work like most shop ppl do.. they earn salary whether you go to them or not..

Totally agree dude.
The after sales service cannot expect much as everytime i go to the SC no matter weekend or weekdays the service bay is always pack.Seem like every single SC also no need to worry no  business.So they can just chill n relax. The employees do more car also same salary, so they also chill n relax..

Tis is my 3rd Honda n l can safely vouch that they have more biznes now than ever before.. biggrin.gif
As usual, when biznes is good, service always suffer..

hi bro, any comment on the stiffness of the sport spring? Just worried if its too stiff the passengers will have a lot to complain, especially my family wink.gif
*
If

U are worried about stiffness then go for eibach cos its less harsh.. especially if still using stock shox..
Eibachs .. besides being lower is only a tad firmer than stock.. only at d very end of its spring rate will you feel de firmness..
Teins Flex is a lot firmer..
