CVT Gearbox = RM20k +++

tot should be most of the newer generation vehicle's gearbox isn't cheap?!

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

serious ar? 20K?? really that much arr

I would say get it check by a Honda SC. Ask them for Full Inspection. Price varies from each Honda SC. Some charge Rm120 while other charge Rm60.. Try to tekan minyak using D mode, then let go... then tekan again then let go.. Reason is to catch if there is any jerk issue. Another thing is check if there is any big vibration when pusing from R to D.



I think bout RM 22k. But chop shop can get Rm8k

My SA juz called me... mine will be arriving early next week and by the time ding dong here and there (registration), I can collect on 12 July! but ah, my SA told me ah, my running number is 7000+....so fast ah?

will notes it down..thx man..but duno the owner will let me drive to car for those check up at honda SC,later have to wait for hours or they will plug thing in n out

just wanan ask 1 more question..since so many city owner here, so far any1 (touchwood) got this gearbox prob..?

among my club members, theres like less than 5 so far who had changed their gearbox. so i would say the percentage of it is very very small.

the earlier batch usually will have the start clutch jerking issue. u'll feel the whole car vibrating as u accelerate from standstill. the vibration only occurs at the specific speed, after tat wont notice any at all.

all the owners i know that has changed the gearbox still has warranty so they let SC replace FOC. I've also known a few Honda Fit[Jazz] owner, theirs dont have warranty already so they sourced from chopshop for mere RM4k. plus labour everything is less than RM6k.

Yoh, anyone seen a manual transmission honda city in msia b4?

Im craving for it....

how long u gonna drive the car....3yr, 5yr, 9yr...
belum tau....
i jz 1yr older...but got bluish silver...
not as sporty and cool look as sparky gray....
but looks gentle(although i m not quite ) and age-proof for me on next 10 years....

Want manual might as well get Gen2.

should be around 5 years...

i personally like met blue..but since now option limited to onli red n silver, i prefer red coz for me silver like those family car (for me onli,no offence )..but again in my mind telling me that color is not a big deal if compare to the car condition/mileage/maintanence

Hehe, I wont be posting in City thread if Im not loooking for one ... fact is i just love how the 3rd gen city looks (modded of course)... I like manual also... so ask ask anyone any idea to get it...

i'll take option 2, the silver one.

haha if u dont like the colour then can always spray to other colour like me
previously my car colour was gold colour. tats even more "old" colour than silver for me.

take option 2 as well for me...newer year product,less usage n low mileage...nearly half the mileage of option 1...

option 2 also here....
