I'm a bit frustrated with the stupid waiting times on the RS already... considering Lexus RX300 recond now top up about 80k can get a decently specced 30,000km 2021 model that's a segment higher and honestly likely better reliability since it's a full petrol Lexus...

how about the volvo?

Kepong, beside Kings factory, opposite KTM. Wait damn long, too many ppl interested in RS.

The SA even show me the company itself is pushing V spec with higher allowance for free gifts. RS lowest allowance for free gifts now

RM2000 rebate if anyone register their CR-V between 15th to 31st of August.

Best used of LKAS is on highway like Kesas, NKVE etc where the lines are clear. Especially useful if get sleepy a bit, sometimes got swerve out of lane....Whenever I realise I'm a bit drowsy but have to drive in highway, switch on the LKAS...really really helpful during such situation.

Not for sleeping on wheel but an extra safety precaution that can do auto minor adjustment to keep you in lane (with your hands on the steering).

Honda dashcam is fully under Honda warranty while 70mai is technically a side income for the SA. If I am not wrong, check with them the 70mai is plug into the 12V accs plug or same as fusebox like Honda dashcam.

Likely direct to your external 12V plug to avoid warranty issue.

No lar...these dashcam normally still offered by SA, side income maybe/maybe not split with SC but not Honda meaning officially can still void warranty if caught but if SC no report when claiming related warranty then no issue. The Honda sub-par dashcam still the only official WARRANTY garanteed dashcam.

Dear All,

need some advise here,

when drive the car slowly, especially at basement parking, or quite place

when turn the steering, got very low sound and the steering wheel is like juddering

is this steering rack issue ??

My CRV is 6 months old with 6k on odo
Just done 1st service last Saturday

The only tint under official Honda is Ecotint Ecobarrier.

Any other so-called tint panels other than the official tints are either through own SA connections or the local dealer's panels.

If warranty affected by unofficial tints installed thru the dealer, it HAS to be claim via the specific dealer that you bought and install the tints from. The dealer's SC might be able to "skip" the tint details when reporting to Honda for claims. However for such dealer installed panels, if you claim in other SC, most likely treated as 3rd party tints. Only Honda Ecobarrier is valid thru all SCs.

However if you install tints that did not go thru that dealer by engaging the tint installer directly, then IT IS NOT EVEN under the local dealer. 100% treated as 3rd party in ALL SCs including the dealer you bought the car from.

That is my understanding so far. Anyway when we decided to go for tint max quality installation outside, we have to already decide to take risk to void any warranties related to it, most likely warranty at the doors. With Honda's stringent warranty claim nowadays, I can risk for daily long term comfort and max protection of 3rd party tints BUT I don't dare to risk the unknown cost of electrical / fuse / car system warranty void when installing dashcam....thus I choose to install the very expensive and subpar Honda dashcam. Small cost if you consider any electrical wiring, fuse even possibly car system issues than Honda can void when touching electrical related warranties.

The last ever Honda used RADAR is on CRV G5. Then Honda cut cost and uses front camera + front parking sensor only.

Change steering gearbox is a 1 full day affair....but coincide with your oil change is a good idea. However Honda malaysia being the stingy OEM will want to do inspection first, see if you actually have sticky steering, then service center write up your claim, wait for review and approval and THEN order spare part. For civic the spare part is actually 2 months lead time.

So you need to choose which one coincide with your oil change, the inspection day or the replacement day. The inspection / diagnosis is about 2 hours.

My friend keen to buy V or RS specs. SA advised him for the E specs. Better discount and free service …. Anyone also the same?

Haiz Honda sold us a FHD quality dashcam when 3rd party comes with 2K to 4K quality liao and worse the price is almost double that of the 4K dashcam.
Worse even yet, only support up to 64GB when outside already support 256GB to 512GB. Make sense tho...it is HD quality recording size vs 2K-4K file size.

BUT max 64GB is so outdated. Even the tiny 5 years old dashcam of Toyota VIOS (previous gen without dashcam wifi) supported 128GB.

The Honda paint is so thin... So fast there's some scratches on the door which I believe it's caused by some object like bag when someone passing through my car...

The scratches like 1-3cm length... One of it I don't think it's repairable...

thanks bro. So 9k should cover the one year depreciation more or less.

anything to focus on when taking delivery of the car? taking the car next Wednesday. joining the Rs family here.😄

Hnggghhh more huat promos now

My CRV in town is about 8km/L. So may be you are more heavy footed or the 1.5L Turbo is now more efficient.

anyone finds the steering is on the heavy side? also, i have been trying and still couldn't tune to mix Fm. Anyone facing this on the honda's radio? crappy ler.

My CRV is from first batch (V-Spec)
Received my car on mid April 2024,

the sticky start happening on
Oct 2024 - this is when I made full turn or U-Turn, very minor and you wont notice unless you know what it is
Nov 2024 until now - when the steering at center, sticky at low speed

Went to SC on Nov 2024, but unable to replicate

After the visit nowadays the sticky is very very less, I think they did something to the rack

But from Dec until today its only happen on my first few KMs, sometime around few minutes sometimes up to 30 mins, then its gone

Notes for all driver
You must fully aware of the symptom, how its feel and what it is
Sometimes when its happen and you thought it is normal behavior
