Hi, I'm a 2nd-month owner of a Satellite Silver VTec...
Proud of every km done on this baby...
Anyway, u can try Sumber Auto Edaran (PJ), Edwin Tan: 012-300 3816
Nice fella, humble,helpful & accomodating, but had to buy from someone else coz the latest of all latest model was coming out & they had run out of stock of the V4...

Cheers.

Hi, jinyee...
I am new here in this thread also.
New owner of Satellite Silver VTEC, 3000km on the odo...
I have raised a phone number before in this thread for a SA recommendation.
Go to the one next to Sin Chew, ask for Edwin.
The City is a must-buy, no regrets...
Cheers

Wat color u wan?
The Sparkle Grey's the coolest...
It was my 1st Choice, 2nd is the Bluish Metallic...
But ended up with the Satellite Silver, others got no stock.
Anyway, go for it.
In this thread, you would've read up a lot of good things on the CT.
It's one of the best decisions you could make in yer life...
Cheers, happy motoring.

AWESOME!!!!
Where you gonna get it from?
Book oredi ah?
The Sparkle Grey has gotta be the best piece of Engineering Magnificence.
The color is sporty, but not too rugged, depending on your profession.
Safe image for Sales People, nice enough to pick up some chicks.
Good, man...
Happy for you!

Know wat?
If u r ok to travel lower down south, i.e: NS or Melaka, u may find those who r willing.
The SA fellas have around 2 to 3K to play around with, that's why can give V-Kool la, this la, that la.
If the gift offer is right, go ahead.
If u wanna a good discount, go down south.
FYI, I hitched my VTEC with close to 2.5K off the selling price.
Where?
Sban. Number plate maintain Wilayah if u wan...
BTW, u looking at IDSI or VTEC?
U do know that they are quite differently built in appearance now, don't you?
The IDSI no longer comes with the "7-Speed FUN Buttons", while the VTEC has a new honey-comb grille...

Day off bila?
If weekend, can arrange?
We can meet up also, I bring u lor...
Sban hardly 60km away from KL.
We can roll there in my VTEC, Black Interior mah...
PM me to get my h/p# if u r interested, ok?
Cheers.

Ongratulations on a very well made investment.
Sparkle Grey is imho the best piece of engineering masterpiece, considering how spectacular a car can look & feel, even when it's in P Mode...
I am new to this thread as well, so, welcome.
U mentioned the SA handled the tinting?
It would be good to make sure it is really V-Kool Elite, just my 2 cents worth.
Enjoy ur new ride, i believe u will love it.
Registered ur name as owner?

wira low nvm la.. as long her blouse is low..

Wah, notorius, u really live up to ur name, huh...
Same kinda kick here
But wouldn't it be more assuring if the SA is male?
No disrespect, but do they really know wat they are talking about?
Wat bout if the SA himself / herself doesn't drive a Honda to begin with...
Would they really know wat sort of experience we should look forward to?
Any comments?

Added on October 27, 2007, 11:31 amBy the way, any one knows if we should start driving off if the Cold Temp Indicator is still ON?
I noticed the petrol gauge tends to lower when I start my VTEC & the indicator's on...
Summore the RPM is slightly over 1,500...

Huiyo...
Sori to hear that, mate...
Was it becuse due to the fact that our City is only equipped with such a simple "immobiliser"?
How do we actually use the Shift Lock anyway???
Found nothing bout this Shift Lock thingie in the manual...
I also invested in an AutoLock PRO, just in case...

Hey, thanks fasap...
btw, how the heck do we use it?

Thanks neato4u.
which means we'll have to shut off the transmission before we can do that, right???
Actually, wat makes this happen, under wat circumstance would the gear lock - up?
anything to prevent???

btw, Ex-CT Owner yeahh... could u provide some details on how u got te car nicked?
no offence, matey... just probably u may fill us up on where to avoid parking or wat to avoid forgetting...
Cheers, mate.

Hi splinter, i know how u feel.
the other day, i send in my car to the carwash in my apartment compound becoz suddenly kena bomb by pigeons & crows in the notorious Sri Petaling area, but the idiot used an old rag from a torn piece of trousers (u know how rough those things are, rite???) and wiped my windows from inside...
Before i could stop them, oredi scratched the tinting...
Idiots with capital I...

anyway, i am learning to live with it.

1K service, they will only ask u if there's anything unusual bout your car...
My experience, i told them my VTEC FC was quite high (9.4km/l), the side mirrors not in-sync when folding, the washer nozzle shoot till kena the car at the back & so on...
Usually, there won't be much complains u can make bout the car...
But u can ask them to rectify anything u feel out-of-place...
BTW, i got a Red "Honda Racing" Cap from the SC..

CONGRATS!!!
Taken off the plastic from the seats & sunshield or not...
Very well investent made...
Get TS 2 add ur name into the Owner's Hall of Fame...
I experience 1 door TIL (Temprary Intelligence Lapse) as well, back left, need to close a bit hard.
U oredi tested the seats for water-proofing???
Of course, u need to tear out the plastic bags first...
Cheers, happy motoring & welcome to the club...
BH... Sparkle Grey some more... **jealous**

BH!!! Bumped right rear rim into the curb of my condo compound...
Rim slightly chipped & tyre has small peel...
But drove around KL City today, no wobbling or alignment problems...
Any reason to worry bout anythg???

Fellas, I got RM1,480 off the car for Merdeka + RM1K from the SA.
The thing is, scout around, some even say they top up "personal discount", and it's a good thing, coz year-end oredi ma... some more their quota or sales target oredi achieve, so Honda Malaysia, I heard, also gives them (The Dealer) incentives...
So as long as the Sales Manager feels that your enquiry & interest is genuine, no reason for not giving further discount, given their said position...
So, IMHO, the key is:
1. Scout around
2. Know what you want, i.e.: color, variant (IDSI or VTEC)
3. Know the current situation elsewhr
4. If you are an inconsiderate A**H*LE like me... - bring along the tabulation (the piece of paper whr the SA writes down the loan calculations, the d/p, the no. of mths, etc...) and ask the other SA to match that...
Chances are, you may walk away with ot just a new car (not: free car) + more than just a key chain, TNG Card, Petrol Vouchers, Tinting, Honda Cap, Honda Water Tumbler, etc...

Happy Hunting...

Good Morning, City-zens...
I was wondering if any of u guys experience a 'soaring' sound wen taking corners?
I hope it's not the bearings or the wheel bush...
And also, my 5K km service will be due very soon...
Anythg special to watch out for, or anythg I should ask the SC fellas to keep an extra eye on?
Consumption is about RM0.17 / km, KL driving, with the ocassional Smart Tunnel & jams...
Is this normal for a VTEC???
Thanks, guys.
BTW... i checked out the Accessory Shop here around my office in OUG...
Asked bout the door visor (i hope that's wat they're called) - you know, the plastic thingy which keeps the rain out wen u lower ur windows while driving - and the fella quoted me RM145.00 for the set.
Malaysian made for factory, he said, not from China...
Anyone knows if I can find this thing cheaper elsewhere???
Of course, quality will be a concern la...
Thanks

Yo, iRonTech...
I lost u there at the right foot...
What do you mean?
Thanks for the effort to reply me...

Thanks all of u guys who took the trouble to explain stuff...
U guys rock...
BTW, is RM0.17/km really, like, really high???
Wat's the usual for the VTEC???
I also don't buy the Honda Campaign that the i-DSi gets 22.6+km/l, which translates to less than 8sen/km...
Wind noise with visor? Can it really get lower with the visor, or, nothing significantly different?
U know, it gets really useful wen u're driving on the highway & get sangap for a smoke in the car...
Wat bout trickle sound during rain?
I notice i get trickling sound at the door, as though somebody is knocking a 20sen coin against the window when i drive in the rain...

Thanks, fasap...
U're the guy, mate!!!
BTW, any input bout the visors???

2.25%???
Adoi... which bank???
My VTEC registered End August was 2.38% with Maybank!!!
Anyway, Congrats on an investment well made...
So, which bank lar???

How can, Bryan???
U get down & push the car slowly wen jammed up at the Fed Hiway or wat???
Walau, wat's the secret???
Mine never exceeded 13km/l...

fausct & steven, try maintain the RPM btw 1.8-2.2 in gentle way, u'll c the magic

[/quote]

Thanks irontech...
But nowadays, i practically lift my right foot everytime the RPM reaches 2.5 & change to N wen rolling down hill...
Still, consumption since yesterday was 10.2km/l & this morning while waiting for the Coolant Indicator to OFF the meter went down to 9.8km/l....
Crap!!!
5K km Service coming soon, may ask the SC fellas to reset the ECU...
