I manage to still can turn the wheel a bit to hear the click lock sound after OFF engine, like your Proton.

Yes. Later I try off engine with different steering position and see.
In my proton after turn off engine with wheel straight still can turn the steering wheel a bit to hear the click lock sound.

I manage to turn it 45 degree with heavy turn to lock the wheel when engine OFF. with the click sound.

QUOTE(babylon52281 @ Mar 12 2019, 05:58 PM)
I mean how did he turn the steering until it locks when the engine is OFF. It can turn but damn heavy and I can't turn it more than a couple of degrees much less until it locks.

Ya that's what I meant. But is it the steering lock will auto engaged when I OFF engine and I don't need to turn the steering to hear the click sound ? I thought when I turn the steering until I heard the click sound, only the anti-theft lock activates.

QUOTE(mushigen @ Mar 12 2019, 09:00 PM)
I think you guys are confused with the steering lock. What he means is the anti-theft lock, not loss of motive power.

In City, it's the same as other key-based cars when you shutdown the engine and pull out your key. Once you switch off the engine (total off) in City, the lock will be engaged and you'll hear a click if you try to turn the steering wheel. And this is when you realise you can't turn the steering wheel anymore.

After OFF engine, the steering cannot move freely like driving but still can turn a bit to hear the click sound.

QUOTE(gsan @ Mar 12 2019, 09:10 PM)

When did you receive your car loan stamped docs after collecting your new car ?

It's been 1.5 month since I collected my car and I haven't receive the stamped bank loan agreement.

From Maybank. I got the loan account number though.

Did you get your loan from PBB?
I never received agreement from them, gave them a call to ask about this.
Promised to call me back but nothing received. Call them again to get the loan account number(for monhtly payment) then forget about this agreement hmm.gif

Do your FL front doors panel can feel some vibration when you touch on the door panel or rest your arm on it when car is on D gear while idle at traffic and while driving ?

My side mirrors and dashboard no shaking though.

I guess will send back to the shop to fix it since got warranty.. Just abit leceh.. haha

QUOTE(babylon52281 @ Mar 18 2019, 07:37 PM)
Can try to use a plastic card (like old credit card) to wedge into the loosen part of the tape, then use it to "kiau" open the visor slowly. You may then need some cleaning agent to remove the gum on ur car and visor.

Another more delicate way is to use hair dryer/air gun to blow the gum loose so you can easily peel the visor off. But this one have to accurately control the temperature otherwise you might damage something. Usually this is something done by accessories shops that have workers skilled in this.

Hi,

What tires size are suitable to install on FL E Spec 15 inch stock rims besides 185/60/R15 and 175/65/R15, without affecting car performance and fuel efficiency too much ?

For comfort and quieter tyres, which size better suited ? Prefer 185 width for better handling.

QUOTE(babylon52281 @ Apr 4 2019, 02:20 PM)
That would be something as close to stock as possible: 185/50, 185/55, 175/60, 175/55

It start having this problem after car wash or raining...

Just wait it dry up? I tried wipe it clean also.



QUOTE(nordingh @ Apr 7 2019, 03:25 AM)

Reverse sensor covered by Honda 5 yr warranty?

QUOTE(babylon52281 @ Apr 7 2019, 12:31 PM)
My car had this too. It only happens during rain/after rain. I suspect either water inside or the sensor misdetected water built up on the sensor surface and 'thought' there is an object behind.

Well, at least us Espec users above still have rear camera to check on the rear. For me not a big issue.

Guys,

When you collect your new FL, did the screw nuts on both front doors have some red or blue paint on it where when u open the door, you can see there are two nuts in between the door vertically ? and also on the metal on the bottom of the front seat ?
One of the four bot nuts on all the four rims has an "X" light blue paint marked on it ...

Is this normal ?

Thank you for your detailed explanation. The paint job still fresh though when i touch especially at the door bolts. lol

QUOTE(mushigen @ Apr 8 2019, 11:14 AM)
If you look at the engine bay, you can see most, if not all, of the bolts are marked too.

From an engineering perspective, I speculate the possible reasons:

1. As babylon52281 mentioned, it indicates that the marked bolts have been torqued with the proper torque value. Now, why do we need to mark the bolt instead of torquing each bolt as we fasten it? Well, in industries (non-car), the bolts/nuts will first be tightened lightly. Then the proper torque will be applied manually. Hence, it's not practical to torque every bolt the moment it is fastened. Also, there is a proper pattern to torque bolts, for example, the star pattern for even force, when torquing our wheels. It's not like how typical tyre shop people do it - simply whack from point A to point B. So, there is a risk of bolts not torqued if they are not marked.

2. It allows for easy visual identification of loosened bolt/nut. In every new machine, vibrations may loosen certain bolts/nuts despite the torquing done. As it is neither practical nor possible to check the torque value of every nut/bolt in an inspection, manufacturers can pick a few problematic areas and observe the marking to see any loosening. Hence, I reckon the mechanics are supposed to check key components/bolts for loosening during our 1k inspection.

3. It discourages parts swapping by unscrupulous dealers. If you see that your alternator mounting bolts don't have properly aligned markings, you know it has been tampered with.

and other reasons I can't think of now.
