If you played any racing games before such as need for speed and gran turismo there are many factors will affect hourse power. Like ECU, drivetrain, exhaust, air intake blah blah blah.

Hi Sifus,

I just want to make an enquiry, I am sending my car for second service(20,000km)right now and they mentioned that my battery need to recharge till evening. If after charging and the battery is still the same, they will have to replace the battery but I'm covered under warranty. I just want to know whether has anyone encountered this before or is it just me? They also showed me this picture. Any output will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi guys,

My car just got a tiny stone chip sad.gif

I know that we can buy diy touch up to fix it.

However, my problem is that I do not know how to smooth the area before touch up.

The chipped area is like "timbul" a bit. Do I need to smooth it before apply the diy? Or should i polish it?

The area is near the front hood.

MSM TCP is a bit rarer and warrants more head-turning, in my opinion

Yes, you need to sand the divot by using a very small piece of sandpaper, but i'd advise you to fill it first using the touchup paint kit. after it dries, then only you use the rubbing compound to smoothen the surface. Use the sandpaper if it's still rough.

You'd want to make sure that the sandpaperis rounded at the bottom - use a pencil

If you bought the kit, it should have everything you need - including the wax/grease remover.

Wax & Grease --> Basecoat --> Clearcoat --> Rubbing Compound

You may want to sand it later, if you still can feel the bumps. To me, I just leave the bump smile.gif

My 1.5tcp is 1 yr old now. Still feels very excited each time driving it. Probably because my low mileage in it. Only 15k km done.

Being 1st batch, I've changed my ac compressor due to compressor clutch failure and also vsa modulator. Everything else is very reliable and solid. 0 rattling sound and NVH is pretty much the same as day 1.

Still excited about the way it goes in s mode and tackling corners. Still admiring the looks every morning.

My only complaint is no forward collision sensor. Tricky when trying not to scrape roadside pavement. Also the original enkei rims can be made somewhat lighter. Have not changed it because no aftermarket rims compliment the car better than it so far.

Overall 1 yr ownership experience: 9/10

also 1st batch 1.5tcp owner here. have the same feeling. done about 15k km too. My review is that everything about the car is rock solid. Except for wear and tear parts, EO and alignment done during 2nd service, the car still feel as new like first day drove out from showroom. the car coating was done at Regal Valet (Gyeon products) during a group buy last year and I'm happy to report the coating is still gleaming good. Despite NS highway drive at incredible speed behind lorry and all, stone chipping is at bare minimum. Tar and bird droppings can be easily removed. Windows is protected by Raytech security windows film. Absolutely satisfied with the solar heat rejection and smarttag with T&Go placed on dashboard is not a problem when going thru Electronic Toll Gantry. Most 1st batch owners will be renewing their road tax and insurance cover from this month onward.

Overall 1 yr ownership experience: 9/10

hope this helps. cheers!

The rattling sound could be vsa modulator problem. It usually sounds after driving on a stretch of rough road. Applying brake while on such road will trigger it too.

Just be ready to record it on ur phone. Honda malaysia requires video evidence.

Video should be sufficient. Try to record each time the sound appears to have more videos for a stronger backup to ur claim. Or u can always go to other SC too. But If they also refuse, shoot an email directly to HM.

guys,

Modern Steel Metallic or White Orchid Pearl?

so konfius lah to choose.

It all boiled down to your preferences, and also how often you like to wash your car. LOL. MSM requires slightly less washes as compared with WOP. But if there is an additional clear coating, cleaning off the dirt would be easier.

If you urgently need a car, ask the SA also which colour would get the car faster.

If in the end can't decide, leave the decision to your wife/husband, or flip a coin. Haha.

Hope this helps!

My car will reach 1 year old on 25/06/2017 (Hari Raya!). So far, still love to drive the car everywhere - and the mileage is almost the same as you guys ±15K KM. My VSA modulator is starting to sound on uneven roads (sometimes), and I already got used to the CVT warm-startup sound. Other than that, I have no major issues with the car biggrin.gif

Hi, actually I am seriously considering this 10 gen Civic, but have one big issue is pulling me back.

Which, is the SEAT ISSUE.


I did try my friend civic 1.8 from KL - Ipoh - KL.

Everything is son nice, speaker, high tech feel, cruise control, driving experience & etc, but only 2 issue. And is all about the seat.

Front passenger seat is too low for my kids, who is 6 years old. He only have limited view.

And the most dilemma is, driver seat is too "short".
My knee starting feeling paint when drive back from Ipoh to KL....

Any possibility to change the seat? or customize it to longer for driver seat & TALLER for front passenger seat?

Sorry for the silly question.....

Honestly, I feel 10th gen civic's turbo lag is quite serious, u don't have confidence to cross T junction or turn into the roundabout when your car is at full stop position ...this is quite disappointed ..

Yesterday, I have test drive Civic 1.5 TP and Mazda 3. I am very impress with Civic. I think it is better car compare to Mazda 3 overall for now. The Mazda 3, I tested have no G vectoring, so may not be total fair comparison. May retest Mazda 3 later.

I wonder how good is the Civic handling ? Anyone drive up to Genting via Hulu Yam route or any hilly roads ?

Short distance test drive, can't tell everything. Like to know before making any booking.

I can't tell the secs but it is noticeable from standing start, and I still don't get used to how hard should I press throttle to get instant moving fast the car compared to my old NA car, that it moves at once. Next time maybe I should try S mode when come to T junction or roundabout..

I guess so, CVT always have this rubber band feel when you jack rabbit start. To be honest Civic one is really good for a CVT already, I test drive the Sylphy's pure drive CVT and the rubber banding is even worse.

4 side windows Centurion RX, front and back w/s Ultra 70. Job done at Setapak Raytech. Price 2k+. as i prefer grayish (obscuring the inside view of side windows), it met my expectation. However need to use Ultra 70 due to VLT requirement. Don't want to run on the wrong side of the law.

hope this helps.

Oh, means we can do the adjustments like this,
Ok, will give another try next time.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I am 162cm. I don't have the problem that you described as well. Usually I will adjust the driver seat higher.
As for your child, by right 6 yo needs to be on a child booster seat. Not recommended to sit at the front passenger side yea unless really no choice.

Honestly, I feel 10th gen civic's turbo lag is quite serious, u don't have confidence to cross T junction or turn into the roundabout when your car is at full stop position ...this is quite disappointed ..

I'm 180. I find the seats comfortable enough but you need to get the adjustments right. I had it set perfectly before until a car wash changed the setting. Then it took a while for me to get it back to the right setting for myself.
Try playing with the seat adjustments a bit.

I can't tell the secs but it is noticeable from standing start, and I still don't get used to how hard should I press throttle to get instant moving fast the car compared to my old NA car, that it moves at once. Next time maybe I should try S mode when come to T junction or roundabout..
*
I get what you mean and I feel the same too. My old 2.0 NA shoots off faster than the 10th Gen Civic from stand still but once the Civic goes past 1.5k rpm, big smile mode is on. I think this is a combination of the CVT and the turbo lag at the first 500 rpm or so. In any case, drive safe. Plan and time the entry into junctions and roundabouts properly and allow for unexpected events. Better to be safe than sorry.

i guess the next facelift civic will pair the turbo with DSG gearbox after development.

CVT with turbo still not a perfect match..

My car will reach 1 year old on 25/06/2017 (Hari Raya!). So far, still love to drive the car everywhere - and the mileage is almost the same as you guys ±15K KM. My VSA modulator is starting to sound on uneven roads (sometimes), and I already got used to the CVT warm-startup sound. Other than that, I have no major issues with the car biggrin.gif

Same here. Bro VSA they updated firmware for mine so far so good.

Warm up sound still there.

Driver side dashboard no more rattling but now glove compartment sounds like there's a clip detached.

No other issues so far. Happy.

Yesterday, I have test drive Civic 1.5 TP and Mazda 3. I am very impress with Civic. I think it is better car compare to Mazda 3 overall for now. The Mazda 3, I tested have no G vectoring, so may not be total fair comparison. May retest Mazda 3 later.

I wonder how good is the Civic handling ? Anyone drive up to Genting via Hulu Yam route or any hilly roads ?

Short distance test drive, can't tell everything. Like to know before making any booking.
*
Drove to Bukit Tinggi and Genting before. The 1.5's power and handling are excellent. You barely need to high-rev the car. But I still prefer a manual gear going downhill, or maybe use S mode.

Right, accelerate from standstill is a joke unless you tekan more which makes more noise than usual cars. Even an Axia auto can accelerate from 0 much faster.

Wow that sounds horrible..
The sound I'm getting is from the engine on the left side of my car. It's like a whirring sound that sounds like metal scraping on something.. comes and goes and it's really annoying. Told the service Centre guy when I sent it for the 1000km inspection and he said it's normal.. definitely Doesn't sound normal to me. Should've brought him for a test drive.
Should I send it in prior to my next service (10k km or November)? Think I should cause it's kinda getting very noticeable and annoying..

Hi ,

Does anyone mind to share meter feature on 1.8  and 1.5 turbo version?

many thank.

I believe the only difference is the turbo boost info on the meter dashboard. The rest of the info/displays are the same.

Edit:. Oh ya, the service A/B reminder. Miss out that.

My HU was unresponsive once before, including the on/off button. But when I long-pressed the on/off buttong (around 20-25sec), the HU restarted and everything was ok again. I was driving on the highway then, and didn't try to turn off the car, but I'd imagine it should work...

However, bringing it to the SC is also ok - might be a faulty HU

Yup, our engine needs slightly less than 4L of engine oil. My old FD2, needs about 4.5L.

IINM, 0W-30 is RM186 for 4L.

Yes, tyre balancing, alignment, rotation just do outside at a later date. But most config still using old Honda Civic's config. Dunno ok or not...

I would've done it at the SC, but they're not offering it today - no staff coz most are already on leave.

It's recommended that we should do it every servicing for more evenly weared tyres.

It is actually a "non stick zone" to prevent you from tinting there, this is to ensure radio,IR are able to transmit through. Which if you see at your tinting, it is only up to the dot area.

But of course the thinner films can still tint across without issue.

Got my TCP last Wed's from Tiong Nam Setia Alam. As promised, before raya. Hats off to them for that. From booking to delivery < 1 month.

As expected, driver side pillar rattles. Will get it sorted after raya. Found another problem, oil life maintenance indicator not showing anything. Only - - - -. Sc told need to reset and VSA modulator buzzing. The rest the car is good. Still figuring out how to get the AA running. More to explore soon. Bodykit next!

Further, anyone knows whr can we trade in the MC5 for highest value? The rubber is noisy! Planning to change

I want to buy a set of the current 10th Generation Civic 17" alloy wheels.

If any owners are changing and want to sell please send me a PM. You will get a better price than the lousy trade-in offered by tyre shops.

Got my TCP last Wed's from Tiong Nam Setia Alam. As promised, before raya. Hats off to them for that. From booking to delivery < 1 month.

As expected, driver side pillar rattles. Will get it sorted after raya. Found another problem, oil life maintenance indicator not showing anything. Only - - - -. Sc told need to reset and VSA modulator buzzing.  The rest the car is good. Still figuring out how to get the AA running. More to explore soon. Bodykit next!

Further, anyone knows whr can we trade in the MC5 for highest value? The rubber is noisy! Planning to change

Yeah, this problem very rarely happens. Only happened once in my 1 year of owning the car.

Today is my 1 year anniversary of owning the Lunar Silver Metallic TC-P biggrin.gif

Just sat in colleague's Civic (December 2016 car), I find his reverse camera very soft or maybe out of focus. Is this normal?

Curious if the newer batches of Civics have the same reverse camera as the City FL... which seems to be soft...

My old Honda city used to have this problem. Especially when during cold start. The smell will go away after few mins.

The air cond filter is moldy. Either replace or u can bring to shop to ask them to clean it.

Guys, need an opinion for 1.5 TC VS 1.5 TC-P. I see most of the stuff is cosmetics. Only two things I consider important, Air cond Duo Auto and Navigation. Is it really useful or can I live without it ?

For me is just the headlights. I know can install aftermarket but also the question of voiding warranty, worth it? Internal stuff like navi and duo climax etc etc is just something not worth for long term. Maybe just WOW for a week or two but lack practicality.

Myself booked 1.5 TCP because i dont want to void my warranty.

Actually can live without Dual Zone Aircond & Navigation... Unless your passenger likes different temp than you - passenger feels aircond too cold, but you feel just fine etc. Or also if you always travel in places that have terrible reception / infrequently travel to Singapore and don't want to pay roaming fees for navigation.

iPhone user, you're stuck with Apple Maps if you want to use CarPlay. Android user, you can use Google Maps with Android Auto, and also Waze has a beta version out for Android Auto. Still buggy though...


The ultimate reason why I chose TC-P over TC, is the headlights & aircond. Those scaly headlights wub.gif

Few days already with the FC. Mostly just sitting in the porch... still admiring it from all angle.

It just bested my trusty '09 City sharing the other half of the porch, except the speaker system... Both standard stock, City 6 speakers; FC 8 speakers. It's quite an obvious lost to the Civic at any volume level sad.gif I didn't expect this.

EDIT: I read it again and it may sound confusing. So just to be clear, I mean the Civic 8 speakers system lost to the City 6 speakers doh.gif

Agree with you there. The sound system in the Civic is really sub-par. I'm thinking of upgrading it at some point after the warranty is over. Until then, just have to live with it.

Shift to S and press a bit more. Watch the rpms zip up to 4k with satisfying grunt from the engine. I was pleasantly surprised when I used S mode a couple of days ago. All this while I stayed in D-Econ or D at most with rpm rarely exceeding 2.5k. Never needed to enter S, until someone totally pissed me off. A word of caution, if you're doing it, be careful. 200kmh isn't that far away. Before you know it you'll be hitting the speed limiter.

For me, all of the above is useful and I use it frequently. Lately my phone has been acting up and the navigation comes in real handy. Dual AC, this one is more for my gf who loves to change the AC temp every time she's in the car. Now she can change it for her side....although in the long run, the temperature in the cabin will stabilize.. What I love the most though, are those headlights. They're not purely cosmetics either. The LED liights are brighter and do project farther than halogen lights......and they're just so damn beautiful.

They're all like that I think. It's not so clear.

I get it on and off. No idea why. Only lasts a couple of minutes. Gonna ask SC to check on next service.

Not so responsive? Hmm ...to me...once the TC is on the move the CVT is responsive. Once u floored it u can feel the power and easily hit 180kmh in few seconds. No way a stock 1.8 can come close...lol. cos I often drive hrv too...huge diff in power especially on highway...

Drove both before, can say no way the 1.8 is faster than the 1.5T. Slighty slow from 0-15km/h then 1.5T smoke it all the way~

However, I bought the 1.8 sweat.gif

For a car which is already is speeding up (FD1.8), and a car which is just starting to put "pedal to the metal" (1.5TC), of course the car which is already speeding up will be faster for a while, but the 1.5TC will catch up and accelerate faster after the first few seconds. The torque and hp of the 1.5TC is higher than the 1.8.

If your car is only going 4500rpm, not really put pedal to the metal... if really pedal to the metal, it should be at 5500rpm until 207km/h

For me, all of the above is useful and I use it frequently. Lately my phone has been acting up and the navigation comes in real handy. Dual AC, this one is more for my gf who loves to change the AC temp every time she's in the car. Now she can change it for her side....although in the long run, the temperature in the cabin will stabilize.. What I love the most though, are those headlights. They're not purely cosmetics either. The LED liights are brighter and do project farther than halogen lights......and they're just so damn beautiful.

FD 1.8 will have more confidence than you when he is on high speed with full press throttle (AT) & hydraulic steering (direct feel on road condition) while our FC is having cvt gear slipping feel that you do not dare to floor it or even you floor it harder (the moment you wanna gain acceleration), the rpm shoot up high and you tend to slow down as how we drive AT car (to make RPM go down to achieve the next gear level) that make our car slower... there is some tactics how to drive CVT car personally i feel..

if drive at D mode..at partial throttle hold at 4000rpm the speed will drop like this 130-129-128-127..
if S mode lain cerita.. become like normal AT..rpm go up together bring the speed..not rpm go up and throw away his friend ...

That is because torque converter is working harder when on S mode that make us feel like normal AT, personally I feel our car need to press gently and lightly to gain max acceleration.. It feels slow but cvt is working on best gear ratio to accelerate with our turbo's boost..

Today my first to drive a long journey with my 1.5tcp on highway(around 400km per way), what surprise me is , i driving and pedal hard on the way going to KL 150-170km/h (i have a habit, i will reset my Trip B everytime my oil life drop 100km) , it hit 230km+- for the first time only my oil life drop 100km, at first i thought my oil life meter rosak, after round KL 2 day, with traffic jam, i can hit only 60++km in KL and the oil life drop 100km


On the way back , i try to monitor my oil life again , it hit 200km+- again only the oil life meter drop 100km , now my oil life is only different between 1000km from my actual milage haha, i would say if u press hard u wont get bad oil life even in highway, oil life only drop like hell if its traffic jam or short trip no matter how soft is ur right leg


If everyday run highway, u can actually run more milage than the Oil Life gauge

It's more like you are gaining back the lost oil life coz you are running at a proper optimum speed and temperature for the engine. If you drive long distance once in a while, you will get 1:1 oil life and mileage.

I'm using the Waze Beta for AA - which is actually version 4.24.0.113. I'm guessing you actually installed version 4.25.0.901 which although it's a Beta, it's not compatible with AA - and it has a nasty bug of crashing often...

As i've said earlier, only install 4.24.0.113 for Waze Beta for AA. If indeed you are running version 113, try to open Waze directly on your phone - there might be an open dialog box (rate app, facebook login, permission screen etc) - and causing the crash on AA.

If it's a cleaner wax, it means it's not pure wax and contains mild abrasives to remove stains and blemishes. It means it will shear off the coating as well to some extent.

What about FD 2.0 NA 155HP @6000rpm ?

Maybe the 1.8 could have beaten the 1.5 at that instance.
Bro andyshim89 stated he throttled to 4500 rpm (from the link shared about, 1.5T @4500 rpm is about 140HP, the 1.8 NA max is 140HP @6300).

The situation was the 1.8 catching up from behind and tailgated... it would have rev to max rpm, and probably at a higher kmph before taking open lane (air resistance advantage) to take over.
Also for the 1.5T, sudden rev of throttle to 4500 rpm doesn't mean the turbo and torque convertor able to instantly transfer all the power to the wheels.

So, when both vehicle side by side with same HP, the 1.8 may already be 10kmph faster with lower air resistance, down shifted (locked) gear at its peak.

im also thinking like that..that 1.8 sure get ready to overtake must keep a higher rpm..but im crusing speed so must take some time to boosting get up high rev..if side by side race sure 1.8 bye bye..

fd 1.8 can not overtake you if you don't change lane, keep revving to 6k rpm, he sure bye bye liao.. unless you are under pressure/stress when he tailgating you .. tongue.gif

Musty or damp smell coming out from the air-cond vent. Anyone experienced it before?
Need advice.

Yes I got the same issue since few months ago. Let it run for few minutes and the smell went away. Another car restart, same smell. Anyone know how to fix this? I have opted for the evaporator cleaning RM125 during the 20k service but it seems the smell is still there.

After playing with the settings. I found that if you leave your lights on at either the full headlights or DRL, instead of "auto", and then off ignition and LOCK the door. The lights will stay on until it's off timer is reach, e.g. 15 seconds.

Then when you unlock the door via remote or door handle (without remote starting the engine) , the lights will come on directly. Dramatic entrance.

*on a side note, anyone know where's our front tow hook? Found the one on the back, but not able to locate the front one.

It's the air cond filter mouldy d.. Either u change new one or can ask sc to take out to clean it with a blower. But it's not expensive, suggest to change new filters. Good for health and also better air conditioning

1. Press Start Button 2X - or while car is turned on & Gear at P
2. Look at HU. Press Home
3. Choose Settings
4. Choose Vehicle
5. Choose Maintenance Info
6. Press on Reset

Don't reset coz your oil life is 0 - you will still void your warranty should anything happen... Go to your SC to do oil change as their system is computerised and linked.

Dear all, I've been stalking this thread starting from v4(roughly) till now. Thanks all the sifus for all the helpful information so far. I've finally decided to buy a civic and now dilemma-ing for colors. This is my first time buying a new car (been driving second hand cars), so finally get to choose a color for a car.

My first choice is WOP, followed by LS and Black. I don't have much experience with car so I would like to ask for advice about some drawbacks(or benefits) while going with each colors. My main concern is bout maintainace cause I heard white cars is quite hard to maintain. Would like to hear from all the sifus here. Thanks very much in advance. P/s: I currently owning a red car.

Different dealer different delivery date and stock availability.
I have visited few dealers with various delivery date (mostly 2 months at least).

End up I lazy to visit anymore branches and call dealers one by one via Honda dealer website.
Manage to find a dealer which is able to deliver the car in 3 weeks.

If you are in hurry, the discount/rebate/freebies might not be that good.
In my case, the rebates can up to 5.5k in other branches, but I opt for 4.8k rebate without any freebies sad.gif and delivery in 3 weeks.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. You should go with the color that really gets your eye smile.gif that said, white is easily the most difficult colour to maintain - I owned a white FD2 previously and I need to wash the car every week for it to look good. I heard black is a close second, but I never had a black coloured car. My current car is Lunar Silver - I can easily go 3 weeks without washing it and nobody would really notice it - except me. I still keep the habit of waxing my car every week tongue.gif

It's different dealer to dealer, but the average period is 1 month. Dunno where you tried to book your car, but I often hear horror stories of people getting their cars from Kah Motor - dunno why but they seem to overpromise and under deliver... try calling around Honda dealers before going to their showroom since you already know what you want.

Hey guys,
I just noticed that during braking the base of my driver's seat moves ever so slightly. I feel it the most when coming to a stop. It's almost like it's a bit loose. Anyone else have this or is this normal?

I've owned mostly black cars and they're a pain to maintain. Dust and dirt is clearly visible especially after driving in the rain. If you want ease of maintenance, stay away from black. With that said, black is my favourite colour for cars so the effort in maintenance is worth it for me.

Hi guys, quick question...how much would it cost to "enlarge" the rear car plate? and is there recommended shop (kl/pj) for accesories? I love the spoiler but if i buy directly from Honda is very expensive.

Which branch is this ? I will avoid this.

I call up some SA, if booking now some say end of July and some say August. One SA says they ramping up production for new CRV, so Civic will be less. I suspect he bullshit.
Hope to book one and replace my old car very soon.

I booked last Sunday (18/6) - but I guess by the time register in system it is already Monday (19/6). My SA say end July and dare not promise earlier.

Sigh, getting very excited leh...

But when I was scouting for a good deal, most of the SA say delivery in mid - end Aug, so dunno if this SA can really deliver by end July or not.

@isr25 @Newbie838 thanks for sharing your opinions. It seems like maintainance wise, silver check most of the boxes in comparison with other colors. I'm still keen towards white atm. smile.gif

Do you guys apply any coating(or something similar along the line). Do you think it worth the investment for long term maintenance purposes ?

Drive ard 100km/h heard real bad wind noise, and when traffic jam the noise from the car beside is loud... motorcycle noise is loud and clear...  rclxub.gif

If i remember correctly the test drive unit wasnt that bad  rclxub.gif

Hmm.. its not that bad, but I drove a conti car as my daily driver previously and yes the NVH levels are obviously higher on the civic. Was thinking of doing soundproofing 4 doors and also been seeing this rubber strip thingy that they stick around the doors, does that really help? Saw one that charges RM200++ for it.

Sigh... Not really keen on the idea of having someone disassembling the door panels to do the soundproofing la, hence the rubber strip thingy seems like worth a try. Also would it consider void warranty to do soundproofing the 4 doors by sticking sound dampening materials on the doors?

@isr25 @Newbie838 thanks for sharing your opinions. It seems like maintainance wise, silver check most of the boxes in comparison with other colors. I'm still keen towards white atm. smile.gif

Do you guys apply any coating(or something similar along the line). Do you think it worth the investment for long term maintenance purposes ?

I've got the modern steel color on my civic and it does seems to attract more bird poo (study shown that darker colored cars get poo'd on more) than my previous car which was white. In terms of maintainance wise, white isn't too bad to care for, its always the dirt strips that happens to occur below the side mirrors (door panel / front fenders) that will annoy white car owners.

As for coating, I did it with 3M coating and saves alot of time when you wash your car. Even some of the bird poo slides off upon contact or washed away when rained. For me it's worth the investment to protect your car with coating.

Another cheaper alternative is to DIY, get clay bar, glaco windscreen products, and self-coating products (e.g. Soft99 Fusso coat - 12months).

I've got Ceramic Pro on my car. Silver package. If anything, it's good for protection. Bird poop and just about anything else wipes right off with a piece wet tissue paper. Washing the car is also so much easier as the dirt simply falls off. More than that, well....there ain't much. It's mostly for protection. Ceramic Pro does a good job but if you're hard working, you could save the money and wax it yourself. Just my 2 cents.

That's too much. I think they are overbooked and not honest. It's a good thing they don't call me, I can skip it for good. Congrats ! Enjoy your ride, doyok2630 thumbup.gif .

I contact a few and visited one. Apparently those with 3S, SA gives less discount and cautiously promising delivery date (up to 2 months). Others give more discount, seems to able deliver within 1 month hmm.gif . They would not say have ready stock, ask to book first.

Light footed driver, 1.5 has better FC and at normal crusing speeds, 1.5 will sip the fuel slowly. Heavy footed, 1.5 will suck the fuel up.

Light footed means normal acceleration. If you like to pedal to the metal at traffic lights etc, that will kill your FC - especially on the 1.5

Driving at a constant 80-90 at federal roads and 110-120 at highways will save fuel - especially on the 1.5

Obviously you can drive faster, but don't expect 17km/l fuel consumptions tongue.gif I have returned consistently above 18km/l on highways by driving around the speed limit.

Driving at 150km/h would return around 13km/l.

I think I have shared this earlier, and will put this up on the FAQ. This is targeted for those who like to drive their cars until almost empty before filling up.

Forumer Woody from the 10thcivicforum did this test, and I converted his figures to metric.

Gas Tank Capacity specification: 47 liters
Empty Gas Tank Refuel Capacity: 55 liters

Kilometers driven between when Range = 0 first reported and running out of gas: 116 km
Average fuel consumption at Range=0 suggests the gas tank reserve is about 8 liters

Observations:
Range stays at 0 as reserve fuel is consumed.
Fuel Consumption average reported goes up continually once Range=0 is reached

Not necessarily the professionals will do a better job unless you pay those RM4k+ that comes with 5-7years waranty on coating, end of the day it's not their own car... they won't put as much TLC as a owner will. If you are very OCD and meticulous, doing your own may also yield good satisfying results. Just make sure you read and follow the instructions on those car care products.

Also by doing it yourself, you get to know your car better. Find out things you might miss when collecting the new car and then you can report it when you send it in for your first 1k km service.

bro ISR, you are definitely one of the very 1st batch owners when the CivicX was newly launched in Malaysia back in June 2016.  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

LOL! My engine and chassis number are in the low 100, so ok laaa tongue.gif I still remember the feeling when I first got it, and it was rare on the roads. It was like being a celebrity man - people turning their heads everywhere, being stared at traffic lights, people taking pictures, people asking questions when I get down from the car - worst part is all the lalabengs, rempits and wiralution fanboys ajak racing on the roads rolleyes.gif

Still, I think my next car - years down the road la, coz I love this Civic - will not be a first batch car anymore. Best get a facelift + lot's of freebies and discount - I received SOME freebies and 0 discount. But it was definitely worth it coz of the above experience!

Guys, I'm a "new" owner of TC-P OPW. Would like to check on servicing schedule. I've done my 1k inspection back in May and currently my screen is showing Service Due every time I start the car now, my mileage is 6700km. Is this the turbo service or has my 10000k oil change arrived early? Appreciate you reply. Thank you.

Thank you. Hence the turbo service will just follow the manual. Only engine oil we refer to the meter. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I also notice my my aligment tend to steer to left when steering in neutrel position.. it is normal for such a brand new car to have such problem? or some where else had defects?

Hi guys,

Placed TCP White last 2 weeks and suddenly feel like changing the color, worried that couldn't Takecare of it.

1. Nature of job and usually need park out outside.
2. Through out so many cars, non is white. Mostly grey and silver. Not very good car lover.

If given choice to rechoose the color, which will you go for?

Read Post #1, FAQ, under Why does my Warranty & Service Booklet for my 1.5TC/1.5TC-P has 2 sections, Required Maintenance Record and Lubrication Maintenance Record?

Also : https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry83411530

Odometer 800km, but oil life 6k only - either severe stop & go traffic, or lots of short trips in 1 day. Either way, try going for a far outstation trip at cruising speeds on the highway - oil life will recover back to almost, or back to 1:1.

Alignment steer to the left, not normal. Need to do alignment / balancing - go to SC soon for them to do it for free.

Also, make sure pump 32psi / 220kpa on your tyres when cold ya...

Edit:

Also added in How does the Maintenance Minder system work on the 1.5TC engines? coz getting too frequent questions on this... I blame the SA for not giving important information to the owners.

Another is the middle interior roof light. Doesn't goes off when I set the switch in the middle which suppose to goes off when u shut ur doors.. it doesn't and SC checked need to replace the light. Waiting for the report and parts to arrive..

My 1.5TC insurance is due end of this month and I have received renewal notice from Honda. Do you guys continue buying from Honda or look elsewhere for better deal? Considering 1 July starts the motor insurance liberalization. What will be the estimated sum insured for 1.5TC?

I renewed mine with Honda (25 June). Malas want to save a bit.

About the insurance policy liberalization - I seriously dunno man... So far, my wife's policy is also due on 28 July, but seems like they quoted the same method and calculation as per normal. It seems that the insurance companies also want to play it safe, and just use status quo method for now.

It's the same "liberalization" as petrol companies are free to give discounts - which you can see that exactly 0 companies actually give discount... Price war konon.

I check the spare tyre area and was shocked to find out that it was "plastered", dunno how to describe it...but it is well apparent the reason for doing so is to prevent water sipping through. Asked the SA during 1K service and confirms it is to prevent from becoming a swimming pool.

I got the rattling sound too

It is for any accessories - not sure if your vehicle is retrofitted with LED headlights, it could be covered - need to confirm this with insurance agent. But for Windscreen Tint, it is covered.

Additional optional insurance for flood and nature-related damages - Comprehensive insurance does not cover by default on "act-of-god" related damages which includes damages caused by flood, typhoon, hurricane, storm, tempest, volcanic eruption, earthquake, landslide, landslip, subsidence or sinking of the soil/earth or other convulsions of nature.

Need this special perils add on for car to be covered for the above damages.

I just checked the middle interior roof light of my civic and observed similar issue with yours, where the light never goes off when door been shut off (switch to middle)......can't wait to feedback this to SA on 1K service. Not really have time yet to explore everything, what else important that we should look first?

I thought it's a feature when you shut off your doors, it will not turn off until maybe 10 seconds later or after you locked your car...

When you shut your doors prior to locking, doesn't your middle interior light dim a bit before going off 10 secs later...?

Just tested my car.

Light switch in "Off" position
The interior light will always be off rolleyes.gif

Light switch in "Middle" position
1. The interior light comes on when the door opens

Dunno if it's default on Civic, but on my Jazz GE with the old key, if I remove the key from my key slot, the lights will also turn on without opening doors.

So for those with keyless start button, does the light also turned on after you turn off the engine without opening any doors...?

I have been searching for a durable wax or coating to protect my lunar silver. Been using Meguair's wax but I don't find it lasting enough. After some readings looks like Soft 99 Fusso coat is quite good. Have been seeing the online prices ranging from RM55 to RM150. Worry the cheaper ones are imitation. Where you guys buy and how much? Are you guys using the Fusso light for your lunar silvers?

roughly 1-2 weeks for detailer, 2-3 weeks quick wax, 3-4 weeks liquid wax and depending on weather.

I just checked the middle interior roof light of my civic and observed similar issue with yours, where the light never goes off when door been shut off (switch to middle)......can't wait to feedback this to SA on 1K service. Not really have time yet to explore everything, what else important that we should look first?

Check your spare tire area for water too. Just in case. A rusted chassis is the worst thing can happen to car owners.
Try setting the middle interior light switch in the middle and drive.. if it stills not going off.. then theres something wrong.

I don't use to wash, or wax car previously but with the new car have to. As comparison, once my car is coated with wax, after rain (day or night when car not in use), the droplets just take longer time to dry than a non-waxed car and as a result more dust are collected and thus more dirty. If the car is the on the go, then the water/dirt will bead away.

Hi there, new Civic 1.5 TC-P LS owner reported in. Took my car on 14/6 and on 28/6 had undergo 1000km service. So far clocked 1307km with oil life left 6700km. Until now no rattling noise issue, aircond issue or whatsoever and hope will maintain like this forever. Very happy and satisfied with my new Civic.😁
And I have questions nid to ask sifus

1. Does any owner had installed aftermarket auto folding side mirrors upon locking the car? Does it void warranty? Or does this car have this feature but I don't know how to activate it?😂

2. For those owners who always drive to Singapore through Woodlands first link, can it drive pass the speed bumps at the Malaysia side custom near the exit after passport chop and boot check. As the poor design / location of this speed bump near the exit is so high it always hit car with low ground clearance or fully seated cars. This poor design speed bump is at first link Woodlands side go towards to JB direction.

Talk to your loan agent and ask him to appeal the rate. Surely your SA submitted to a few banks; ask them all to do the same thing. Good luck.

You need to remember a few things - your credit rating, your banking history, your net worth etc, all affects the rate that the bank can lend to you. I'm quite sure that some banks are willing to give very good interest rates to their private banking customers.

Only reason I can think of for 7 years requiring more document compared to 9 years is the higher monthly commitment / DSR thereby wanting evidence of more income (e.g. rental). Other than that, no idea why it would require more document.

And yes, "too young to apply 7 years" is really lol. Makes no sense.

Agreed, it's the SA - but somehow I often read about these cases from Kah Motor - can search the current & previous threads, and there would be quite a few.

Well at least we are better than the US counter part dealership. Their newly release Type-R price has been mark up significantly goes as high as 10kUSD more than retail price(source: from youtube review comments, articles and fb click bait news). First time i heard a car that gains value even after purchasing. Demand is so high... I was wondering how many of us going is to buy type-R if it landed in here.

For those who had a jailbroken iPhone, you can download a tweak to run Waze using the Carplay, with all the touch interface to be working.

In fact, it allows all apps to work in CarPlay, I have tried Google Maps, YouTube ( Please do not watch video while driving ), Photos apps to be working as well.

This might be useful for those with jailbroken iPhone but envious with Android Auto Waze support smile.gif

If you have not meddle with jailbreak iPhone before, it is very likely that you are using the latest iOS version, which of course, is un-jailbreakable as of yet.

The latest jailbreak-able iOS is version 10.2.1, so if you're using the version any higher than this, then you're out of luck currently.

However, if you did happen to have a jailbreak-able iPhone, good news, just download a tweak called NGXPlay from the Cydia, as mention by our fellow @giggs_509.


The apps setting allow which app to be toggle on in CarPlay, with two options for them.

1. Native - Natively run the apps in the CarPlay interface, so all touch interface are working and communicating directly just like how you will use your apps in Landscape mode. The phone screen remain off, just like any other native CarPlay app.

2. Mirror - mirror the app screen into the car display. This is a usually a second resort if the first option is not compatible for some reason. This however, will not give you any touch feedback and communication through the car display. It merely mirror the display onto the car screen. Any interaction required is through the phone itself.


If I can find some time, I will post some screenshot. But for now, this is basically the steps. The toughest part would be the jailbreaking part I suppose.

Follow up with the iPhone CarPlay jailbreak tweak, these are some of the screenshot when using the Waze with carplay.

user posted image
The navigation work flawlessly, keyboard input is a little buggy sometimes but works ok. The UI is exactly like how you used the app in Landscape mode. If the app does not support landscape mode, it will looks weird during CarPlay.

user posted image
The home screen. You can enable basically any apps.


Until Waze get its official CarPlay support, this will do for me.

is there any way to remove the watermark while does not damage the coating? my car was sent for coating 4 months ago. even I wash my car weekly, but it getting more and more watermark. then I sent my car for coating maintenance, after 1 week when I cash car, the watermark still appear again.

Is your car exposed to sun everyday? Mine half exposed and rear bonnet is full of watermarks now. A lot of swirls and hologram now on top of the coating..quite obvious on the black car... I even use the coating maintenance product weekly also don't seem able to prevent this.

let it be now.... can't do much.. Not sure this issue apply to all coated car or jsut specified coating brand..

You can try fireball waterspot remover/Gyeon q2m waterspot to see whether able to remove the watermark, I think only able to remove light watermark that not yet etch into coating.

Good luck..

But RHB is flexible rate right? Not fixed. Meaning depending on BLR, it will change

after calculation, friend said his interest will save more compare to fix rate.

how the calculation work ?

if fix rate 2.5% , borrow 100k for 9 years , total repayment = 9 *2.5k =22.5k
+ 100k = 122.5k

if floating rate, let say 3% and every month u pay 900
1st year 100k *3% = 3k
2nd year 100k - (900*12) + 3k ( interest) = 92.2k * 3% = 2766
and goes on, when your base reducing, the interest goes cheaper

so it depends on the floating rate provided, if very near fix interest rate, flexible better

not to mention you able to throw cash upfront to reduce interest ( if follow house loan method la )

Generally:
1. The less loan amount, the higher the interest.
2. The longer the loan tenure, the higher the interest.

2.  For those owners who always drive to Singapore through Woodlands first link, can it drive pass the speed bumps at the Malaysia side custom near the exit after passport chop and boot check. As the poor design / location of this speed bump near the exit is so high it always hit car with low ground clearance or fully seated cars. This poor design speed bump is at first link Woodlands side go towards to JB direction.
