whoa..why..scary

This BK own by TC member name Victor Lee. Monster car with original Bremboo disc. If not mistaken, it's a customized BK with either a Mugen RR concept or Type R

Regarding a Honda City '07 model, stock suspension. Is it hard or soft? My college have a spot where there is 2 continuous bump TOGETHER. so the car tend to bounce a lot while crossing. So I was wondering if the stock suspension is soft/hard?

Soft = shake more?
Hard = shake less?

shake? or do u mean bumpy?

soft = less bumpy
hard = bumpy

Bounce out from the initial straight road ?

Bro, Are THESE save-able?








Kindly advise~

And How do I check my car's colour?
It's a Honda City VTEC, I think it's Vogue Silver. How can I confirm it?

@wadever:
Those spots on the bumper... my car had almost the same thing! Same bumper place.. but mine had many more spots, very obvious... I think it's tar or something, washed off but still retains the dark spot. Got it sprayed for RM90 (corner only). I think your car colour is in your service booklet as well... anyway if you go to spray workshop, they'll know what colour it is.

Added on November 3, 2009, 11:49 amI have this problem where I can hear a tak-tak-tak-tak sound when I turn the steering left. Turning right has no sound. SC says this is normal. I never had this sound last time. Anybody experienced it?

BTW, how much is a new compressor belt + pulley (include installation)?

I have the same stains too, just that its LIGHTER than the car colour and its on the hood ):

I think bird shit...somehow..yeah ):

Sorry to hijack this thread but I hope someone can share a little on oil change.

I recently bought a 2006 City VTEC with 14000km on the clock. According to the Honda manual, the oil change is to be done every 5000km. I find this interval very short, as even Proton cars come with a 10000km service interval.
I checked through the forum, and some people recommended using semi-syn oil and stretch up to 8000km. Is this advisable?

There are also talks on changing the CVT (gearbox?) oil every 20000km. Can someone elaborate more on this?

If this has been discussed before, I would appreciate if you can point me in the right direction.

The SC service guy told me that the gearbox oil should be changed every 5k ._.

But then again, I guess it depends on your driving style as well. if you're easy going and relaxed opposed to if you push really hard or somethin

i'm driving city 07 Nov VTEC. when i run above 120km/h will got sound like ratting or bbbb sound.
is that normal? why will like this? what should i do? need advise for u guys.
i send to sc for checking, they always tell me need 3days n no time this n that.
thank you.

i think you mean the engine oil. the gearbox oil change is for every 20k. that gearbox oil change cost around RM350. if that's the case you can easily be charged RM500 plus for your regular maintenance at the SC.

btw julnoel, i found few posts on motortrader and teamcity forums - the remote spare parts u can get cheaper at cobra sc. one forumer claimed he bought only the rubber stick for 1RM/pc.. dunno if it's true. but no harm to check it out. got 1 in kepong also. http://www.cobra.com.my/iframe_dealer_contact.html

i always wonder the use of mineral oil, semi-syn and full syn oil. i read somewhere that these oil grades can extend to longer service intervals, 5k, 8k and 10k respectively. but it's the oil filter that cannot withstand more than 5k. if that's true - are there alternatives to get better oil filter to match the oil grade? any thoughts on that, guys?


maybe you can be more specific? is it like knocking sound? where exactly does the sound come from?

correct me if i'm wrong, the car comes with 3 yr or 100,000km warranty right? if it's bad, you better send your car to a trusted SC for the warranty. else u'd have to fork out your own money.

gearbox oil change is 350? X_X but i got mine for like 100+ wor..the bottle itself is like 80 bucks or 90 bucks if im not mistaken :/ right? or u mean complete flushing...

the remote spare parts that i want is the remote itself actually ._. cos now the entire button has come off, leaving the bare metal thingy there..i scared water goes in and it rosaks, especially if it rains and im goin to my car in the rain or sth..

and apparently to change that..its gonna cost a lot ._.

Morning all..

that sound came from where?? is it near the center dashboard?

I've read in several mags and sites that with full synthetic oil, you can even go up to 20,000km. Just change the oil filter every 8000km, top up some oil and you're good to go.
My colleague's Fiat Panda has a 20,000km service interval and he uses only semi-syn oil.

Not practical ler, if must change oil every 5000km
