That should be the way to maximize the warranty claims. If always parked at home or hardly driven, it will be wasted. Likewise, after 3 years, I got all brand new parts compared to those to keep the car at home and only changed unimportant parts. One of the friends even got a brand new gearbox.

Ya loh... it's bundle together as 5 free services. The 1st service is like no service. If no trust factory qc, it could be done before the car was released, when they daftar jpj road tax and fixing the window tints.

Somemore, it's low mileage... no different if they did the 'inspections' day 1 or 1 month later.

As if the car can breakdown anytime and be stranded at road side, how confident to drive it out of town?

You don't have to tell me about either mileage or interval. My City is 4 years old, 30k km odometer. I have changed CVT fluid 2x (every 40k or 24 months), changed fuel strainer once (80k or 48 months), changed this and that.

My point is you need to have the car inspected after initial use as required by the manufacturer.

Your sales advisor didn't mention this to you before you signed the booking form?

If you think you know more about the manufacturer, I rest my case.

lu tak suka, lu buy second hand.

And it never occurs to you to wonder whether it is absolutely necessary to follow the schedule when there's low mileage.

Good for you.

Don't make excuses on behalf of honda just because you driving a honda. Other car brands the same too... don't have to be emotional because i so happened to use honda in my posts.

Nothing is absolutely necessary for your car. I've seem report / photo / videos of car not changing oil for many years. Service interval in time and mileage is an advise from the manufacturing company. If you don't care about warranty (if any), you can ignore as you wish.

Just like doctor can advise to stop smoking, but you can also ignore. My ah ma live relatively healthy as a smoker till 80+, my father live relatively unhealthy as a smoker till 60+. You car may or may not live long, just don't regret when you kena repair bills lo.

Oh ya, many parts do age with time, regardless of the mileage. Rubber, belt, oil, etc. Even tyre have expiry date.

Right, concurs with you. Some parts especially rubber parts will age over time, regardless of mileage.

Main point of the thread, 1st service inspection absolutely necessary? If don't strictly follow, the warranty can be void.

That's my point of discussion.

I'm closing this thread for further replies. Got other matters to attend to... won't be able to reply all.
