Let me know, I didn't complain this cause I guess need to open up the HU or so to fix it... wait later open so much even more cabin noise sad.gif

On the side note, to whose who bought 1.8 and will be changing to leather seats... can ask how much to rewrap the steering wheel?
*
Same. If you get to know a good place/price to rewrap the steering, do let me know.
Hate the touch of it and seems like easily scratched.

After a week of driving the civic TC, here is my observation:

1. Tyre pressure - First thing I check out of showroom, surprisingly it was at 34 Psi, not 40 obove

2. Cabin Rattling sound - So far so good, no rattling sound yet anywhere

3. Wind sound - This was obvious at the driver side. Even cruising at 80 km/h.

4. Engine sound - I do here sound weird rattling sound on the driver side, not sure it is normal (maybe the sound of aircond compressor,etc) are there a defect somewhere

i have these two problems as well and wondering anyone did get it rectified via SC?

my 3rd day and found another sound. Like a loose dashboard "ngek "ngek" sound coming from driver dashboard.

The ticking sound is also noticeable when i press the "window lock" button on the door panel over driver side.
Its the same ticking sound just like VSC. Someone can give it a test.. or just me only.

I have driven F30 for 6years now. No issues but just maintenance on high side in terms of overall. As for normal service, we follow BSRI in the system which is roughly 15k per service. So far no issues with engine.

We also have Polo 1.2TSI which is almost 5 years d. No Issues as well in terms of maintaining turbo engine. But usual la.. one or twice the gear didn't wanna shift up.

Compare the Polo vs Civic VTEC turbo specifically during low RPM rev up on more sloppy road, the civic turbo its more smooth which my polo will have a quite frequent wheel spin and vibration, like jerking..

anybody has a checklist on what to inspect when receiving the new civic at the showroom?
*
There's a general list in page 1.
Just my additional checks.
1. Check the overall body paint. Seems some ppl here got uneven paint.
2. Check joints, for eg front bumper, back. Inside dashboard etc
3. Press the window safety lock button on the driver side door panel. And see if got loud click click sound. Mine have that sound which I think It shouldn't be. Can ask SA izzit normal.
4. Check your headlights. FoR TC or TCP version. I find out that mine is quite "old". Later will upload a picture and see if it's normal or not. Like it's not clear like dat
5. See if got relay click coming from steering area

hi guys, sorry to ask this again. i wanna buy honda civic, asked my friend, he told me to wait until end of this year, got clearance promotion. However i want to ask this, when is the next or new model for civic to be released? is it early of 2018 , middle of 2018? if middle of 2018, then better i buy it next or this month. Thanks so much for your concern. cheers

1. Yes. There will be discount for old models. But there will be disadvantages such as ur car will still be 2017 model. Hence when u sell it will still valued as 2017 year model. B

2. Discount won't be a lot as currently shortage of supply. Doubt there will be much stockpile.

3. This is the latest generation release in 2016. There might be a facelift but doubt it's 2018. For 2018 we can hope for hatchback but I was told Honda malaysia won't be bringing HB but Type R

Depends on your taste, both glossy or non-glossy looks nice, from far can't tell the difference. Stock car has no glossy parts, so matte finishes wrap suits the car as well. Meanwhile our counter part, hatchback or thai RS civic stock grill is glossy, glossy finishes = replica look.
Price: wrap 1xx-2xx or Stock OEM grill 6xx-7xx.
Conclusion: up to u.

Another thing is wrap d the parts will remain and its original part. If replace replica then the original what we gonna do? unless got storage space which i don't have.

I store it, i intend to change it back to all original at some point of time. It's a sacrifice of space for sure.

No experience or knowledge about wraps, if in future, remove wrap will dmg the original part? For example the grille? Original paint?

10. Constant relay clicking noise underneath the steering column
-Known Fix: VSA / ABS Modulator would need to be changed by the SC. SC would try to update the VSC firmware before replacing the unit.

i have the above sound whenever i reverse car in the morning. I highlighted this issue to SC during my 1k inspection. However as usual no issues from them. Just wondering does it have any negative impact if i just leave it first?
