Uhh I own a Honda City, been driving almost 2 years now.

No complaints with the autolock.
If leave home late from work; park under a dim lit parking I will manual lock myself just to be on the safe side.

Sometimes I ignore manual locking, start engine then drive --> autolock.

So why the big fuss?

I think what to address to honda city problem is that remember to take care your gearbox. Else replacing it is gonna be hellish.

There isn't any "bad" things on the gearbox la.

Just don't go use the cvt gearbox like initial D can already.

Its just that the downside of replacing it is expensive thats all.
