I think we need not close it.
There will be some response from the floor from time to time.
Good place to get feedback on the 3G/4G HC on a more general level

hey bro.
i like the sticketjob very much
looks damn cool...

it's sticker, will it get burnt?
and if some1 scratch your car, will it peel off?
how much does that cost u?


on side note, my city is starting to give problems...
engine sound is kinda loud even when idle...
there's noise coming out from the belt.. don't know which belt.. mileage is just 65k
power lost.. really can feel it.. it's very different from past few months
dashboard starting to give noise when on bumpy road

First of all, that car isnt mine. Haha. How much i am not sure lor. But i heard they say scratch also wont peel off one. Not the normal sticker like scratches then the whole piece peel off. It;s those hard type sticker and even kena stone also wont chip off easily one. How far is true, not sure la..

What noise is that? If it's really coming out from belt, our city only have one belt and that is fan belt. Our ori city belt model is Mitsuboi 5PK1144. Cost about RM70-Rm90 depending which SC u go. All SC price are different. Labour not included. U can get it outside from Bando belt and it will cost less than RM100 including labour charge.

Engine sound rough and loud? Do u service regularly? Power loss? How bout try cleaning your throttle body? If it doesn't help, perharps u go reset and recalibrate ur ECU at Honda SC..

guys, the engine oil u all change normally is rated with ?

i got mine with 5W-50. will have another better choice than this?

guys i interested in buy 2nd hand honda city but i hav a few question can all sifu giv me some feedback?

1) i dunno which type of engine should i go for IDSI or vtec? i mostly 30 percent city 70 percent highway.
2) Fuel comsumption between this 2 engine different how much?
3) any website/trader hav 2nd hand city on hand? can intro to me? haha

thx sifus.....

To be vey frank, the IDSI is more than sufficient if you're not into mods in the future.
It will save you heaps of money 'cos the FC is great.
I've driven both IDSI and VTEC before driving the NHC.
The IDSI is very frugal on fuel

1- highway drive, get the vtec
2- since you are driving it on the highway, more than city drive, its much the same with the idsi.
3- i dont know. sorry=)


edit: oh yea, btw, is it normal for the car to vibrate? when it starts from 0kmph? mine is a city 03 btw.

Answring your questions in my POV..

1. Go for VTEC - you will not regret it.. IDSI is the most economical, but trust me, when you feel VTEC, you don't want to go for IDSI anymore.. of course it will kick in a few extra bucks for petrol.. but seriously, it's still one of the best mileage cars ever built.

2. not that much, i've seen some VTEC consumption lesser than those with IDSI - go for VTEC man!

3. Try teamcity (do a google search), mudah.com.my or go visit your 2nd hand car dealers and pick one for yourselves! Oh, i reckon i saw a forumer here @ garage section, automotive, trying to sell off his city for quite some time (modded, very leng!). Go ahead for that man, not sure if its idsi or vtec though..

P/s : try find one with extra accessories (eg. rims, ICE, tint)

all the best

Hi 3G n 4G owners.... remember me

1) anyone wanna go TT for new tires? maybe wanna change my rear tires in klang someday.....when is the traffic less?

2) my car already due 100k......need to service....all the while been servicing at peringgit SC......any other cheaper options?

p/s thundering here in SK.....haih.....hope i can still online

Just only change my tires and sport rim last month at Hin Leong Klang. U r too late for a TT. Haha

yeah pilotHans, i tot they got TT last saturday?

not that i went.. because no budget lah, not syiok if go TT dun have $$

no interested in modded car... sorry
i just wan a low fc , low maintaince cost , and not bolehland product car haha... anyway i just get my license 1 years which is 18yo tis year my dad giv me 50k budget others balance i top up so i dun wan go for modding lo... and modding very lala sometime ... i just wan a car can drive from A to B without bolehland mark on it

FC for Vtec and idsi....when u r driving in highways....its almost the same....plus...vtec can feel the power...i mean...when going up to slope...whereas idsi will suffer a bit....and interior wise vtec better....

let say...in city drive (traffic jams,etc etc)...vtec 13.5km/l (average only)
idsi will be 14.5km/l (average only)...so not much diff in highways

dowant mod oso better go for vtec.. just my 2cents, you wont regret it.. hehehe

hi adrian, ur the one from melaka before rite......ic, what tires did u change? n RIMS, any photos
was not around Klang valley at that moment, hence i didnt go

hi, wanna check with u guys.

i found that, when using v-power , my fuel consumption run high compare with i am using normal "green" shell....

anyone have same situation?

Yes V-power consume higher than normal unleaded petrol.V-power is more on power while normal unleaded good FC and balanced power.

er.. yea, i think that's the sound from the belt...
the SC told me the belt is a bit noisy, put some oil, then ask me to change it next time during service.
i'm not in malaysia now.. the car is with my mom.. HAHA.. hopefully she'll bring my car to service

i service every 5k.. never tried more than 5k and always in SC...
cleaning throttle body eh? how much they charge in SC?
SC never recommend me to service throttle body also...

thanks thanks..
i see
