Honda City's Fuel Tank is 42 litres...ya, its correct. Both models I-DSI and VTEC has the steermatic control (7-speed manual/auto shifting on the steering)...ya, correct also. but for new city now, idsi dun hv steermatic control...only Vtec hv.

omg, 1 small picture become so big issue....anyone wanto tell me tht is the NOS button for city turbo ???

What ur CT Vtec FC (CT driving)? Full tank for CT is how much?

Not this again
Well i personally heard for normal City if fill RM70 (full tank) can go up to 600+km.
Myself the furthest can go up to 540km onli if i'm not mistaken.

But i guess there's something wrong with my car, need to send it to retune engine or whatever.
Normal full tank can go up to 500km now onli if i use BP petrol.

But if use on highway, yes can save a lot

Did u guys know how much we to spend if wan to change to Self-illuminating meter cluster???
Thanks!

03 idsi - less than 54K

Hahaha....Welcome welcome!!!
Ohh...u also plan to buy nighthawk black ar...Cool n looks sporty rite v tis color. hehe! actually i also got think i-dsi b4 but i-dsi juz 88hp n rear break is drum break wo. Any more other diff in 3rd gen VTEC n I-dsi???


This post has been edited by aarex: Oct 5 2007, 03:03 AM

Whats the price range of a 04 vtec CT ah? did any survey?

yeah.. just 88bhp.. but.. but.. fuel consumption is better thats my point!

but really man, if i got a little more budget, surely i go for vtec.. no compromise.

one thing i like abt honda is that they dont treat their lower line models so cheap, like other makes.. frm what i know, the only main diff for 3rd gen CT is just only the Vtec engine, rims, disc brakes, cd/mp3 player (correct me if im wrong). they really dont cut out on the 'important' stuff like a/bags and abs.. summore the 3rd gen oso hv steermatic as u said..

so if u prefer an idsi (like me ) you wont be feeling left out like driving a 'cheapest' honda CT.. imho laa...

yaya, price range for 04 Vtec CT is around RM61k to RM65k lo...i hope can get it at RM60k or even lower. I also dun want to eat pasir every month too. hehehehe!!! U knw last 2 month i went to a used car shop, i saw they sell the CT 05 Vtec at RM65k only ler. dunno y so cheap?? got problem?? accident b4?? haha!

Honda city look more class compare v others...beside tis city i cant think off any other car tat can beat v CT. (in same category la)
Ya, if buy i-dsi..we still got the steermatic can use which r damn good!! i wonder y the new I-dsi remote it ar? price still same.

At kuching, mostly we go honda punya showroom there ask for 2nd hand car. las time i asked a AUG 04 city idsi gen3, for 58k.
then me n my dad do comparison la, the new 1 and old 1, old is 3.98% new 1 is 2.28%. actually u pay abit more n loan more 2 years u can use new car, so decided buy new car loh. Now waiting for nighthawk black.. haha.. i think la.. u loan for around that price for juz more 2 years, u get 2 drive a new car, would have a better 2nd hand value. Dat's wat i think la.. correct me if i'm wrong. u never know when u kenak toto and change car one.. haha..



old 1 is loan 5 years, new is 7 years.

Actually new CT you can get for as low 2.0% interest (4th gen), but new FL only can get abt 2.2%... i chked last week.. oso comes with abt RM1.5K discount..

of course newer car better value.. but my monthly pay dont got any value lorr i'm maxed at 3.82% @ 7yrs 2004 idsi/vtec ride... if up summore surely gonna makan pasir, batu, and rumput. Too much financial commitment nowadays

58K for an Aug 04 idsi is quite good.. But really can ask Honda Showrooms for 2nd hand cars ah? if like that better ask showroom.. hmmm why didnt i thot of that b4...? stoopid me..

if the car is less than 3 years old, ask for their maintenance booklet.
it's it most important part imho
and also check if got accident before or not.. check carpet whether got water mark.. check the rubber on door panel and car boot, peel it out and see... check for rust.
new but price is very cheap might be because the car had flooded before.. becarefull with this.

woot.......... my city CVT is almost dead


edit: rather, going to die soon

dude.. can you tell me abt the cvt 'dying' thing... how to know?? really afraid.. heard that if ure CVt busted, repair cost reaches 20K!! any means to chk up on the CVT? any indications tht the CVT gonna kong??

do tell me abt the CVT issue k..

Get a good check on the CVT gearbox before you place your money on it. Many sold off City just because of the CVT starting to have problems.

indeed heard a lot abt this.. can anyone tell me how to "get a good chk on the CVT gbox"? send to SC is out of question coz havent bought yet rite? How can I make sure when Test-driving? is there any fluid indicators? any form of way the car drives if CVT rosak? jerking when shifting? cannot shift? etc?

really don want to be conned by these 2nd car dealers / owners..
