I bought Trapo. Thanks for the introduction. It's feels great and I saw the demo of how easily you can just beat the mat to have all the sands fall off. It is super water resistant, so very easy to clean off and there's a lot of Velcro strap all over to make the mat stays in its place. I bought the combo package that came with the mat at the rear boot and I like that it is able to hold on to things from sliding, due to its rubber nature, as you make sharp corner. It's expensive, but I think it's worth it long term. The only thing I didn't like is the mark made by your foot print can be visible. For example you walk on a dusty floor, and step into the mat, the whitish , chalk like, foot print is made visible on the rubber. I think a coiled mat or a cloth like mat will be able to hide this.

Hi belfong, do you need to remove original car mat with Trapo? Thinking of buying it...

I find it slightly bigger than the ori. The front passenger side does not have the same cutting design as ori. Does belfong one also same? I bought directly from trapo website

That's why I very much prefer the organ type accelerator pedal instead of this suspended type pedal. Much safer and better in avoiding objects stucked underneath/on top of it.
Unfortunately organ type pedal can only mostly be found on conti/premium cars.
But some non premium cars such as Kia/Hyundai also use organ type accelerator.

I'm kinda torn on the idea. I get the practicality part and wouldn't mind an organ type. However, I do drive using the top part of my foot, making the alternative an easier drive sometimes. Either way, safety first right.. smile.gif

this is a good idea ~ why not right

Yes, it's a good idea. But then, sensors can fail and manufacturers will end up being blamed when the airbags deploy but the doors don't auto-unlock. Bad publicity gets the most news and to tell the truth, the average Malaysian car owner is known to not bother about checking/repairing non-critical components.

yeah, I wonder what does Honda do when we send our car for the first 1K service. My SA told me not to bother as they are not doing anything and all your waiting/making appointment is for naught rclxub.gif

Looking at mine by 8k i need to do oil change. For 1k probably they want to check if everything is ok. For me i had complaints on the paint defects and the rear tail lamp not fitted properly in one side.

yeah.. Turbo Charge engine requires more frequent oil change.. so I already have that expectation. Oh, sorry to hear about the paint defects and lamp fitting. Lamp fitting is easy to fix; but paint - how? If they touch up, won't you have patches?

They try to polish up and still a few maybe i will talk to the SA what he can do.

As i was talking to the SC on the quickest oil change for turbo they have seen so far is about 5000km. He was telling me that traffic jam always will also reduce the mileage of oil change

Yeah, the Trapo came with a bag for you to store your original mat - very thoughtful of them.
So, I will keep the original map as backup. Also, what other posters said about putting another mat on top of original is dangerous. So, better not do it.

In addition, I would imagine dirt/dust would collect below Trapo on the original mat. Very unhygienic ..

Didn't really compare; ha ha .. it fits ok, so I didn't bother to double check. How bad is it? blink.gif

Isn't 5000km for oil change pretty standard? I don't know, my old car, I change at 5000km and if I use Shell Helix, it's 7000km. Maybe new car is different. So, to me, 8000km change is very good dy.

Of all the information in the dashboard, I find the fuel economy gauge, which is displayed as a bar chart that moves left and right, very distracting and ugly. It's basically not a very helpful gauge. Anyone find it useful?

Just did first inspection (1K service) yesterday, only general checking without changing oil.
For those who got no complaint, you may ask the SA to only chop sign the service booklet and run off. (IMO, waste time)

There are "SERVICE A" (according to the instrument cluster and it vary depending on your usage) and "SERVICE B" (10K service interval), so when your car prompt you for service maintenance due, you must do your oil change alongside the Honda 10K service interval.

My next service said to be on 10K after, but the instrument cluster there shows 3500K.
So in my case, I need to do service after 3500K (or the car prompt me to do so), that's the service A and the mileage will be reset (I believe it will show 7k-8k).
If I continue driving, eventually, I may do the service A and service B together at 10K mileage.

Kind of confusing, hope you guys understand. sweat.gif

You have lesser mileage than mine. I think it says "distance to oil change to" is 3500+ODO (my understanding). I was told again the the SC on the Service A and B requirements and not to ignore it as it will void the warranty. I know this requirement before i decide to buy the TCP but was hoping to prolong the A to match with B intervals.

That is the price to pay driving turbo charged engine. I wonder other conti cars having the same kind of service requirements on their turbo engine.
