QUOTE(isr25 @ Sep 7 2017, 09:27 AM) My complete sequence would be : Drive → Press Brake Pedal → Come to a Complete Stop → Engage Parking Gear → Engage Parking Brake → Release Brake Pedal  edit - I'm sure you're right though - iinm the correct learners method is to put it in parking brake first, then only put it in P. It's just the way I have been doing for the past 15 years, but I never take my foot off the foot brakes until the parking brake is fully engaged. I think keeping the foot on the brakes until the electronic parking brake has fully engaged makes a difference in our case. I personally feel that this new type of parking brake removes the usual "slippage" that occurs in conventional hand brakes. For me, I'm a creature of habit too. Sometimes I tend to release the brake pedal before the electronic parking brake has fully engaged. |

Not sure if you can repair it though... replacing the rim would cost RM1k+ from Honda iinm - but you can find a number of people selling their stock rims due to them buying a new set of aftermarket wheels. |

Thanks for your reply, appreciate it. I just contacted one tyre shop in klang, and they say, they do help on rim repairing, cost around 100 - 150, and the rim should be looking as fresh as new after repairing & polishing, gonna visit the shop on this Sat to check out. |

Are those McGard or those cap ayam? Btw even for the McGard, it is recommended to tighten and open manually, not the usual gun used.

If just to polish the damaged part, the scar will be obvious. Now i m considering if i shall go n get a new rim replaced. |
