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

Drove my TCP last Saturday, noted some rattling sound from the steering part .... Sometimes yes sometimes no , got my car 3months so far no major issue
Except AC water drip into passenger seat and RHS driveshaft leaking

Wondering why rattling sounds appear out of no way

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.

Anyone here upgraded their speakers? I'm planning to improve sound clarity and maybe adding some bass.

Gloss finishes won't be as nice as good old paint job. I did mine at Getto in Kota Damansara, more expensive than others, it's a professional service.
