what battery is city using?

Can ask your friend how cheap ar? If it is cheap then I might consider getting myself another one.

And if this "kang thau" is real, then can you please inform us, kousou? Thanks

No worries, man. Some times things can;t be help^^.

People will still buy it. Reason is some people don't mind it at all. Toyota wasn;t going to bring in the new Vios until the old version has been sold off, so when the discount was introduce, surprisingly alot of peopel bought it..

Literally it is true that City don;t have a gearbox made of "gears". Toyota uses planetary gearbox for AT. City uses CVT, ya, sort of pulling system. So is CVT better than the conventional gearbox? Ya. Did you notice the 7-speed advert that City puts out? Last time, when people say 5 speed, it means that the car have 5 gear mode. In City, since we don;t have a gear, we the 7 speed = 7 gear does not apply. Because it is basically a pulling system, it can vary itself infinitely, but Honda make it into 7 variable speed. So, normal gearbox when they shift in gear, power is lost to the torque converter = less efficient. The power loss is eliminated in CVT = more efficient = save fuel.

Change CVT every 100,000km? Wow, people who drive City are damn rich. This is nonsense. There are members who drive more than 100,000km and their car still going strong.

Go and compare, drive both City and Vios. you'll feel that City have quieter engine, smooth driving sensation than VIOS. FYI, my family have VIOS while I drive City. I'll take City anytime, i have better experience and enjoy more in driving City than Vios.


Just don;t take my word for it. Do and test drive before you buy. If not if you happen to hate City after you buy it, you'll curse me.......

Go to repaint shop and they will settle it for you. NO need to worry about the mixture of paint

outsider will be cheaper. Go to SC, they are going to send to outsource anyway, and charge you more than outsource. So ya, go outsource

I don;t think SC'll do it. Even if they do, they'll cost you, except you nego with SC^^. Just ask SC first, if they refuse or wanna charge you expensive, then go to accessories shop.

Don;t be heavy on your right foot lol

You definately can try

Why the hell i got this feel like that car is from transformer when I looked at the new City ???

Couple of nights before there is this heavy rain, and this morning when I was going to pump the air for my spare tyre, I saw this water pool in my booth. Damn, my car is leaking in water. Now need to go to SC to have them check it..... luckily i open the booth and see.

Ya, try to feel the comfort of driving a City^^ Problems you can leave it for later on

Enjoy your new rides

New owner? Welcome Welcome^^

The gearbox have problem due to the wrong oil that are used on the CVT gearbox. Current CVT gearbox uses CVTF, which is the correct oil for CVT gearbox. Previous CVT gearbox uses ATF, which is wrong, and spoilt the gearbox. But Honda did recall the cars and change the oil to CVTF. So, now no more problem.

CVT Gearbox = RM20k +++

It isn;t, but not as expensive as CVT.

Option 2. i think our club boss fooken and kousou already mention the reason.

I think I notice is this - that day one of my friend wanna test drive my car, so I let him. After a trip, he says he cannot take it anymore and ask me to drive back. I was shock and wonders if he dislike the car. The shock thing is he said the when he drives, he feel headache. I concluded that maybe the windscreen is too big and some people are not used to it, and feels weird.

So ccc8910, you might wanna test drive for a while before you make a decision. That is the first time I heard of the symptom, very weird. But just incase, you might wanna test out for a moment

This is what I heard. I dunno if it is true or not. I think you might wanna search thru TC forum, old and new forum, to confirm this. There is a member that did not go to SC to service his car, and buy CVT-F from outside for use. His CVT gearbox spoilt. But he was lucky I think, because he manage to persuade the SC to sign his redbook and get warranty claim for his CVT.

Now my advice to you is take the car to SC, ask them to check throughly. Especially the CVT. You don;t want to get into any trouble with CVT gb. Anyone from TC forum can you please confirm this? I can't really remember the details. Maybe fooken can confirm it. Actually he's the only one that I remember from TC Forum because of the nick similarity
