QUOTE(johnjenin @ May 5 2008, 05:31 PM) anyone having this problem... Wind sound or tyre sound? Don;t think, please make sure. speeding at >140km/h, there is a sound coming in. i think its from the tire... time for balancing and alignment? any ideas? Actually City have alot of sound given free by Honda heheheh If you drive around 80kmph and above, you'll hear the CVT aeroplane sound, wind sound. City also very famous for dashboard sound. Even the Kenwood player's panel will produce sound. Damn... Anyway, when is the last time you did you balancing? I remember that Honda Service Centre will ask if you wanna do alignment and balancing, plus they will rotate the tires position for you. |

QUOTE(cywings @ May 6 2008, 11:28 AM) my dashboard is having sound/noise too Got. I have this problem for more than 9 months. My previous service fix it. My record in Honda Service Center is famous, even the girl can remember lol.the upper glove compartment, when go thru bumper roads sure can hear the plastic hammering plastic crack crack sound.. any idea how to get rid of it?? sighhh Anyway, what actually gives out noise is the glove compartment. Other is since teh dash board is made out of 2 touching plastics, they knock each other every time you go thru a bumpy road. What the Service Center did is: They readjust the glove compartment They stuff in sponge and cloth that act as a dampener. That is not all for me. My driver side door panel gives me rattling sound, my headrest gives me sound, my power windows motor gives me problem, lol, so many problem. But then I enjoy driving City better than Vios Good luck to you man. I hope this information could help you. |

QUOTE(wat de....?! @ May 6 2008, 09:15 PM) the hand-brake light of my car dont light when i pull the hand-brake... is it normal ? the hand-brake light of my car dont light when i pull the hand-brake... is it normal ?the car can still move in D mode even with the hand-brake up... anyone can help me with this problem ? No it is not. Better bring to Service center and let them replace the light (or anything that cause it), if you are still under warranty. If you are not under warranty, I think they'll charge you a bomb. the car can still move in D mode even with the hand-brake up... Actually this is quite normal. Mine the same as yours. Unless you make some mods to it |

QUOTE(dEfrAgmEntEr @ May 25 2008, 02:34 PM) as far as i know, there are no temperature indication Try it when you want to go fast, then tell me if you think it's a stupid functionit will only appear when is is overheated. otherwise no signs. 7speed mode : when u in D mode, press the "7 speed mode" at your steering. then u can control it by pressing up and down. this manual mode doesnt work in N or P gear. to off : press the "7 speed mode" again. Note: stupid function la ~ i dont think anyone use it in daily driving Added on May 28, 2008, 4:45 pm QUOTE(black_rider @ May 28 2008, 01:47 PM) IC, what is 195? What is 55? There is a reason, it's for better handling. Maybe you might notice the handling difference between iDSi and VTEC. iDSi is more towards comfort while VTEC, which is for performance and tuned for racing, so handling must be good, which equals harder suspensionThe reason I want to maintain my Honda rims is because I don't want my car to be sporty. I want it to maintain professional and yet have a larger width to eliminate the "kaki itik" view from behind. Added on May 28, 2008, 1:51 pm Yeah, I agree that my Vtec suspension is a bit hard. When going through some holes/uneven roads, it's like riding a horse. But there's a reason to it I assume, the engineers design it this way so that it could cope with our engine power?

Really? I haven;t got shock by it yet. Follow this - before you touch your car, touch your cars with your keys. Touch the car using a key that have plastic enclosures, if you don;t want to shock yourself in the process. If nothing happens, you're good. If there is a spark, ho ho ho, you know lor

there are several types of side steps. One is from Mugen, i think kinda expensive, can;t remember the price. Another two are aluminum type, i think around RM60 - RM120, can;t remember the exact price.
Added on June 2, 2008, 8:58 amanyway, in the previous teamcity forum, i saw some tcer install a sidesteps that have lights. Very nice, but i doubt you can find it anymore This post has been edited by runemastertan: Jun 2 2008, 08:58 AM |

QUOTE(jinyee80 @ Jun 4 2008, 12:47 AM) I am not sure whether its from inside of the speaker or boot cover. Anyone ahs this kind of problem before. Normally when this kind of problem happen, do you think i should go back to Honda service centre, and the thing is are they willing to dislocate everything just to find out the weird sound for me? This is what i think you should do first before going to SCTake out everything in your booth, like basket, etc, anything that can move mo matter how small it is. Make sure your spare tyre is tightly screwed down. If better, take out the spare tyre. Take your car for a spin, then hear if the sound is still there. If yes, it might be the shock absorber. Take it to SC, since your car is still under warranty. YOu might need to leave your car there for a day or two, so you might wanna bring a friend |

There are some good reviews about Dynamat. But they are expensive.

Then i think you will most likely get the same answer. Your car is still under warranty, it is best to go to SC, to avoid getting the warranty void

because when you go into N, the gearbox will spin back to it's normal speed, which is low. When you suddenly go into D, or S, it spin back at high speed all of the sudden, this will damage your gearbox. Our gearbox is CVT, it;s not like the normal gearbox, our's more delicate and requires more care. Oh if you don;t know, normal transmission gearbox cost several thousands, our CVT gearbox cost more than RM20k. Still wanna take a chance? most people won't^^

QUOTE(apisgogo @ Jun 13 2008, 09:54 AM) better leave it at 'd' because CVT can enhance our engine braking while cruising downhill... can, just not when you are moving high speed or at high rpm you suddenly shift from N to Dbut is it not advisable to change mode from 'd' to 's' while moving? how to climb the hill then? or is okay in slow?
