Sent a car for its 1st service, these the details...

- car came with free labor for the 1st service

- 1st service either reached 1000 km or 1 month, whichever earlier

- failing to follow maintenance schedule would void the warranty on the car

- 1st service entails only checking engine oil, washer fluid, tyre pressure, etc.

- no oil change involved as engines nowadays only change engine oil after 10,000 km and oil filter after 20,000 km

- have made a prior appointment before hand.

- still need to wait after taking a queue ticket before being called to the counter to inform them why you are there and hand them the car key.

- after that, wait about another 30 minutes before you noticed the car driven inside into the service bays.

- overall, waited about 1 hour plus just for the service guy to complete the inspection. (There's no engine oil or oil filter replacement.)

Hello Honda,

Give free service for what?

Lol. Even for those who booked early morning appointments still needs to wait 3 hours for a normal service.

Dahlah bodoh Beli Honda lagi nak bising.
Dahlah bodoh kuasa dua, nak sangat warranty, tak nak DIY.

That's your choice, so enjoy the leash lil bich.

They do checkup for u. It needs knowledge and know how which u dont have. Same like doc consultation fee. Check check ok no problem, please pay etc etc.

First time buy Honda isit?

hello!

1st engine oil change is crucial!
mostly it is mineral oil to let the engine run in properly for 1st 1k km.
do not skip.

Tak suka naik skooter laar.

Honda is for ladies lah. Deswai must send to SC even for simple inspection

first 1000km where got change oil yet loh

biasalah, SC memang kena tunggu lama.

other cars also need to go thru the 1000km inspection

First time pergi SC ke?

Pprt people baru upgrade from bezza?

keyword: b40 car brand

1st 1000km no oil change... that's the gist of post why the 1st sevice is just a waste of time.

Only char chiew youngsters wouldn't know how to top washer fluid or check tyre pressure.

Also the battery is maintenance free type nowadays, no need to check and add battery water.

Kek spot on, and kecoh kecoh can’t wait to show off type

TS ,baru tau? 1st service always no engine oil change

Maybe. But if don't send to service center, got no chop on service book. Later anything wrong, warranty void.

Lol, talk like an idiot.

The first 1k is for them to check if there is any problems with your car after real life usage. Some of the checks during manufacturing unable to replicate actual field usage, thats why most car manufacturer req for 1st 1k service to do those crucial checking.

first time buy new car kah????

After 1st year, would go change oil at tyre shop, no prior appointment no waiting bullshit...

You lady driver? Crucial checking... hahaha.

first service usually to clear the oil and filter from the small metal pieces accumulated there after engine break in ler. Most important service of all (only if manufacturer haven't do it from the factory)

last time shine torchlight can see many reflective metals in the oil CarroTT

The first service for new cars usually for orang bodo tau tekan saja

Some engine may have gasket etc that may fail coz new ma let the engine settle in and sometime may even leak oil or coolant

So its just preventive just incase especially house wife type mentality


If u know cars u still have to send to them for them to inspect themselves

Itu aja sekian

Yeah, all bullshit appointments... like the service manager know nuts how long to do oil change and no idea what is operational management.

Actually good tonhv hard engine break in as engine now days produced with good/tight tolerances

You talking about 1st service 20-30 years ago?

Nope, experienced driver that know very well how mechanical things work.

Dun compare me with a newbie driver like u that just start owning a car and surprised with such a general SOP in cars. I guess u should be a papa or mama kind of boboi that get everything settle by them previously. Welcome to the adult world my boy.

see post #28 for what i think of you too

But said to all drivers/owners, maintenance schedule must be strictly adhered to, or else void warranty.

Plus took more than 1hr to inspect the car.

Yeah, still need to get them to 'inspect' yo get the service stamp on the service book.

You an idiot with poor comprehensive reading ability. Do you understand what I wrote?

Plus you don't have to rude and/or arrogant. You don't own this forum. You don't like what you read or don't understand what were written, move on, don't reply and add your stupidity.

Engine break-in, not even stated in the manual book anymore unlike 20-30 years ago.

First time?

Don't be too smart. If anything wrong, and the warranty is void, you're on your own.

Obviously no... how else would I be talking about 1st 1000km bullshit service?

lol see the opinion if others against you, apparently they think you sre the rude one

Is it even necessary? You driving the car everyday, you would notice anything that is not right, no?

But then again, people been known to drive with flat tyre...

Only you.

If 1k mileage service is bulshit, then don't buy Honda.

Buy something else that doesn't come with 1k service requirement.

Your money...

They don’t do this anymore. Not perodua or Toyota or Honda. The engine tolerances are so tight now that the “mineral oil to catch metal shavings” is a bygone era story from decades ago. Engine break in is achieved at the factory thru better honing during the manufacturing stage that “sets” the grooves and wear pattern for the cylinders.

The 1k service check is just a formality/plugging on computer to do system check.

Too many people buy honda these days

only know complaint.,. dare u go outside of official SC n service lo.,tiuu

izit oni Honda or what? my trollyota 1st 1k service got change oil

Which car don't have to do 1000km service? Toyota?

What to complaint at the SC? Free service, plus the staff are employees doing their jobs.

It's Honda and it's policy on maintenance schedule or the warranty is void.

Plus this is kopitiam... just sharing my opinion on things with people here.

Yeah, yiuuuui

Perodua no need. First oil change at 10 k if i remember correctly. The manual only stated that the first one thousand km, internal friction is high so drive slowly/don’t rev the engine hard.

kesian poorfag problems

Boycott

wait till u go Toyota service,..

Yeah, if at least need to do oil change, then it's not a waste of time...

I think no need to do oil change, not necessary, that's the reason there's the oil filter.

delusional

crucial checking
engine break in 1000km
'clear the oil and filter from the small metal pieces accumulated'
experienced driver
lol

Don't follow later cannot change steering rack

Nissan same too...

That's why usually after 1 year, go to tyre shop for oil change.

Change insurance to preferred insurance company too.

ya, indeed. i checked my honda service, no 1k oil change.

That's what's scary... warranty void. Even though that problem got nothing to do with engine oil or anything.

Lots of sensors that can failed for no reason.

honda xtukar for 1k service, already fully synth

hahaha 🤣

Yes, it is necessary lo. Or u wan to count solely on your lucky stars?

Yeah... just for the sake of getting the service stamp.

yup
i read until the bolded part, i already know it's honda

and see the end there....it's really true

Nope. Even mineral, also they wont tukar. If not mistaken, the current city is using mineral and they are pushing it for 10k interval too. For previous gen city, this is wat they do, mineral at 10k interval, lmao

Just recently?
My wife toyota, 5 yrs ago still require the 1k mileage service. It was with oil change of course

I check Toyota, need first 1k and 5k…

my doter city gm6 using 0w20 oil. got mineral oil at this grade?
what u wrote sound like bullshit. 10k for mineral lol

Bullshit or not, those who drive honda will know

im driving one, i know that's bullshit at best

my brother's ativa need 1k service. what do u mean by "they don't do this anymore"?

An inspection takes only 15 min wasted 3 hours waiting...

Ts first time buying car? All this BS already long enough if i have children they already 20 year old

buy used car and go to 4man you like

If they don't perform such checks, and lets say there is manufacturing defect ie an oil leak causing major engine damage, then who would be responsible?

Means they don’t change the oil at one k

Maybe ativa turbo different case

I drive both civic n city. Its fully synth

U confirm u didnt add any money?

friend's accord 1.5T kena engine oil warning light at 6000km, while supposed due 10,000km. called up and was told that better send in to check. found out oil inadequate already.
is topping up oil, foc ?(before 10,000km). answer is nope, need to pay.
when asked why like that ? answer is 'turbo is like that'
lol

The Power of Sohais

All the non sense i can bear with until they let me wait 3 hours plus even i made appointment 2 weeks earlier. Do these service center know what appointment mean? Not enough man power just let us service at outside without void the warranty lah. Not enough man power still want to charge price yahudi. FU.

Lol first service last time 15k km terus

Yup. Toyota still change oil for 1st and 2nd service

I check back the maintenance from honda, and confirm its mineral oil. RM99 is the price of mineral oil. Couple of years back, i paid around rm89 for it when i service it for my parents.

If yours is fully, then u can check how much u paid for it. Some SC will auto upgrade for u without telling u.

confirm dont have la. it was the default oil chosen.
im more amazed by your hearsay claim which is obviously bullshit.

nah this one serviced last week. good luck finding 0w20 mineral

Topkek, kena waterfish rm153, still can so proud screenshot here. Look at my post above on what is the default oil for city la dei.

The 1st service is either 1000 km or 1 month, which ever comes first.

When you received the car, there's all kinds of inspections stickers on it. If there's anything (major) wrong, you will notice it immediately when driving out of the showroom.

Besides there's reliability and engineering prowess, if there's major defects only detected 1 month later, who is responsible?

Not the manufacturer if the warranty is void!

or maybe u sendiri kiamsiap wan save money.
all my hondas from my family from city, civic, and hrv also using fully synthetic as default oil.

Topkek bodo spotted. Do u even know what is the basic meaning of default oil?

waterfish ma waterfish la. easily afford it. even the spark plug outside i can get 65/pc also i lazy to do that and let honda kawtim all.

the default oil SA chosen foe us, and also what we expected.
i would be more furious if they give mineral for 10k service.
topkek penny wise pound foolish

Your new car warranty only 1 year? Hahaha

The point here is not about foolish or not. The point here is to say that honda is pushing 10k interval for mineral oil, which is a fact i had proven. But u is the one the proudly foolishly deny it, and then try to cover own malu by saying penny wise foolish la, rich to upgrade la and etc.

my persona last time got 1k service with oil change --> yes (i think about 2018 ..not sure now)

my waifu myvi need go 1k service but no oil change and it's free (but need to wait lol)

my latest benzi no 1k service ..once start from showroom direct 12 months or 15k mileage

That is why the manufacturer requires you send it back in for the first service (first inspection) at 1000kms. And its also free, why complain?

The other fine print is xxxx mileage or xx months, which ever comes first.

Some only touches 1000km after 6 months, and some did less than 10,000km in 2 years!

But must stick to maintenance schedule, or 5 years warranty void.

semi sync can go for 10k or 6 months ..no issue

my plotong by default oil is semi sync from SC

you can choose to pay more for full sync if you want


just like my old pijot last time SC default is petronas full sync; but you top up more to go for Total full sync

This post has been edited by fantasy1989: Sep 18 2022, 11:04 PM

I think you must have mistaken. Honda Accord 1.5T engine oil change is based on the electronic minder from the dashboard rather than fixed 10K interval.
Your friend car indicator light came on at 6K as it is already due, this is due to driving pattern, condition etc, for example if more traffic jam, the indicator life span will be shortened.
Usual mileage for oil change is between 6K-10k depending on driving condition.
And 6K they don’t top up the oil, they change all oil. New car will not burn so much oil so early!
