They guys are always willing to do it...spend more money, get performance and comfort satisfaction. Totally worth it.
The missus...don't care how good is trade in price to get better tyres, as long as you going to spend more money, you are losing money, no go.

Hey all, hope ya all can help me. Does anyone here owns of have test driven the current 4th gen Harrier before? I just wanted to know how’s the NVH as compared to this 6th gen CRV RS.

I’m contemplating between these 2. CRV RS vs Recon Harrier Z Leather. Both about the same price. Tough choice. Hope ya all can help!

I’ve recently test driven both. But it was a short one and didnt manage to go on a highway to feel the NVH. ☹️

Harrier is definitely better but its new vs recon,

Overall happy with the CX8.Engine pick up much better than the CRV or my civic fc but then the fuel consumption is higher.

Not bothered by the infotainment screen. Only problem if using android auto need to use wire connection, only apple carplay is wireless. Map also not pre-installed like Honda. The infotainment also need sometime to be familiar as it is using toggle and button(touchscreen is disabled when the car is moving)

360 camera is much better in the CRV but for me the CX8 camera is just enough to get by.

Additionally

Plus point for CX8 compared to CRV
- large size
- leather seat + interior more premium than CRV

Negative point
-I think the CX8 is boring as all the mazda look identical.
-CRV has more gadget and latest technology. Also CRV looks more Garang.

Personally, I am willing to wait for 3 month for the CRV but then my Civic start giving problem and my wife like the mazda so much. After all delibiration due to shorter waiting time and to make wifey happy proceed with CX8.

dont believe CX8 pick up can be better than Civic FC, especially if it is the 1.5 turbo mill.
FC is lighter and very powerful, while CX8 is so damn heavy.
CX 8 0-100 sure more than 10 seconds while FC maybe 7-8 sec.

My Civic was officially and finally denied warranty by Honda Malaysia after 2nd appeal to them in writing. For windows run channel rubber, due to external tinted. FYI this tinting is a panel in Honda (3M) but in another town which I engage not through dealer.
What I speculate here is Honda Malaysia AND whichever dealer you don’t end up getting tinted thru, will give you a permanent black mark and deny you warranty.
So it’s serious, they will do it if you don’t let them make extra money.

can elaborate further what happened to windows run channel rubber?
how much it cost?
couldnt claim from tinted shop?
