lol....headache. just now went and pumped rm 50 fuel. it showed can go 491. plus before leftover 62 km so total can go 553 km. so it's hard to calculate FC for a full tank. anyway i am sure i will give up upon this after the next few tanks. lol . anyway my FC for now is 17.9km/l. izzit bad? i drive fast by the way.

The service advisor told me they changed the spring inside.. here's the invoice I got.

Anyway took it home yesterday and so far so good, buttery smooth steering again in low speed car park maneuvers.

Yep
Mine already 2 months, hopefully its rectify

17.9km/l for heavy footer is quite good i say. easily can get average 700km or even more

first tank was 903. second tank was 812. coz first tank i drove like old ah pek. average 50 km/h. second tank i tekan kao kao. now on my third tank which i purposely half filled to find out the mystery behind the so called 57 L tank capacity.

Honda's meter showing fuel consumption is too optimistic by ~ 0.5km/L

For City, I got avg 27-28km/l on meter but real world calculation by mileage vs liters filled, avg out over multiple refills, about 25-26km/l only. So I would take the meter reading as estimate but can differs by up to 1++km/l sometimes.

Yours work out to be ~ 7.4% off. Mine ~5% off. Quite similar ball park figures.

BTW, when battery depleted/charging and idling, you feel any engine vibrations?

You cannot compare City with CRV. City and Hrv using 1.5L Atkinson engine that is a bit underpowered vs CRV and Civic 2.0 litre engine. City and HRV engine vibrate noticeably during idling while Civic and CRV has a very MUCH muted vibration. If one thinks CRV vibration is noticeable, then City and HRV is loud in comparison.

Initially when engine restarted during idling, sort of wake me up a bit....but nowadays numb liao, feel the vibration and noise during engine restart while idle but somehow immune to it thus not so noticeable to me. When car moving, not noticeable. There is no CVT vibration thus overall vibration is so much less than petrol version even with engine running.

Tried CRV, also same except the idle engine noise and vibration is like heaven and earth during idle when compare with City and HRV. There is still slight engine vibration but no more than usual engine vibration of petrol version. Again lack of CVT vibration is noticeable for eHev. You really have to compare side by side then only notice that vibration difference between engine running CVT and engine running eHev.

For City the best seating to feel vibration difference is at rear seat further from engine. I feel petrol version vibration all the time especially acceleration but eHev really don't feel the vibration at all during acceleration. That is what makes me jump to eHev when I tried them out. Just cannot afford Crv (I can say I can afford to save face.....hehehe but have to save more for retirement, so in reality cannot afford) thus downgrade....to City ehev, haha..

Are you saying at idling, when the CRV's 2.0 petrol engine on, it vibrate same as the ICE 1.5T?

to my feeling, the 2.0 atkinson engine kick in feeling quite significant during idle.
however when driving didnt notice at all. only hear the engine sound.

not sure about the turbo. I dont feel any vibration but only engine roaring sound when the engine kicks to charge the battery,

ya....but only for less than a min.

ya ya..just during the engine start

Have you tried 1.5 atkinson engine kicking in during idle? It is way louder, sometime give me a scared when I am day dreaming.

So in comparison, the 2.0 engine kicking in is consider good liao.

just wonder whether this car is factory fitted with GPs ?

Hi all, could you recommend on any good service centers around klang valley? Or which service centers to avoid going to? For my CRV RS HEV.

Hi guys, Im thinking about taking the E spec, should I go with V or RS instead? Whats the noticable major differences between the E and V spec? Both RM100+- in ccm 😂

i have good experience with Sri Utama Setapak and Autoworld Sg Buloh.
As much as possible, will try to avoid HZN glenmarie

what is ur criteria of choosing a ride? budget/satisfaction/resale value?

IMHO:
if budget, go for E
if satisfaction, go for V or RS
if resale, go for V. i believe V have better resale value. RS will drop due to the hybrid battery.
