Dear Isr
Is there any problems with tc model like overhearing last year in Thailand occurred here. I'm not worried with engine problems rather than things that wo t affect the safety/reliability of the car.
Cheers
From what I know, there seems to be 1 genuine case of engine overheating in Malaysia in the first few months after launch. There was a few cases after that, but it was due to the engine radiator fan failing which was causing the engine to overheat. Then when racechip came out, there was a few engine overheat as well

but of course, they denied it la...
I would say, it happens, but it's not due to airflow or heat in Malaysia - the US summer heat & desert is even higher than our highest temperature - but due to faulty parts or user own fault.
It's quite reliable imho - and there isn't an epidemic issue like people are suggesting or viraling last year. Most of us bought either TC or TC-P anyway

Hi bro.would like to ask for members opinion.Based on what i read before, it seems 1.8 FC is higher than 1.5T...so i would like to know is it justified to buy 1.5TC compared to 1.8?I am planning to get one to replace my saga flx which i have been using for past 4 years and previous to that been using my dad's Saga BLM for 5 years plus. So this will be my first Honda purchase. I know its a huge upgrade but i from the experience of using saga flx which is not fuel friendly in my opinion, there should be no difference between fuel consumption of saga flx and civic fc right?
I dunno what is Proton Saga FLX fuel consumption is, but you can see my fuel consumption in the previous post, or at my signature - I'm driving the TCP btw. I would say that 95% of my driving is below 2000rpm, 4% between 2000rpm - 2500rpm and 1% above 2500rpm.
Fuel consumption is very subjective, and it's hard to compare between one car to the other, unless they're driven by the same driver on the same exact route. Even then, it could be different due to traffic condition at the time or the mood of the driver is different as you tend to drive harder when you're angry/in a bad mood

Anyway, the 1.5T is more frugal than the 1.8 when driven normally or lightly. But when you drive it hard, the 1.5T will suck down more fuel than the 1.8. So it depends on the driver and route.
