this is very subjective wan... it's up to you and the seller to come to an agreed price...
even though it's 71k km...try to get the service record from him...if he follows the service...the car should be ok...

RM58k sounds like a pretty ok price... the most also u can try to nego RM1k or RM2k lower...haha...
good luck...

dear city owners...

my city is vtec and recently i scratched my rear tyre rim against the side pavement... sakit hati...bit one big patch of scratch right now... is there a way to repair/patch up the rim?

thanks... sob sob sob... very sakit hati...a new original rim will set me back around RM400...prefer to find cheaper way to fix it first...

thanks again....

but then what happens after 3-4 years once the wear and tear effeck kicks in? the sticker will peel off? how hard to remove the sticker?

i don't think it's possible because i've taken out the whole indash unit before andit looks like it's really integrated...so there's no way to chagne the HU while maintaining the original cover....

yo .... penang city owner reporting in....

me also planning to spray my city side area...becoz kena dents from ppl's door opening...arrrgghhh...

i got a quote to spray front half and back half at the side portion for RM250...just imagine the side spray whole area without the doors...

but then i'm afraid that the color will not match...i've seen samples where the repaint area color looks totally different...

anyone from penang can recommend a good spray workshop with color matching? i read before can do...but dunno where...

thanks....

what about repsray internal dashboard? anyone don that before?

i enquire at one workshop at Juru area... not cheap though....

if there's any good workshop to recommend...do let me know...thanks in advance....

in penang, spray whole bumper should cost around RM250...spray one half of it around RM120....
based on my mechanic price la...

guys...
anyone know the cost of spraying the city to white color?
also, what is the impact of doing this? they will tear up the internal parts for spraying?

any city owner spray the internal plastic dashboard before?
how much will it cost?
mine got scratches...planning to get it fixed and wanna know the market rate...thx ya....

dude...u sure u wanna do that?
the interior color won't match..you'll have ur dashboard black and the fabric/side door panels in beige...

huh...i thought this one is the Vtec dashboard meter?
nothing new what...

yea...i also feel honda's original battery won't last more than 2 yrs...i think 1.5yrs on average is the lifespan...

am planning to send my city to SC to kopek the dashboard out for respray..anyone done this before?

i already made appointment later this month...hehehe....

but now not sure if i should go ahead with the plan....

kopek = pry open...
hope i'm explaining the right stuff...

haha...dismantle my dashboard and respray lor...
i briefly asked the price...i think per piece of dashboard spray will cost from RM80 to RM100+ i guess....

first round of spray...no good! the color totally no matching...resending it back to workshop for respray again...what a nightmare....

just go to honda service centre and order from them...they do sell it...not really cheap though... RM100 + i guess...haha.... i just bought one recently....but so sorry...i can't recall the exact price....

my windscreen kena batu before and chip like about the size of 5cents coin...can repair...they use some tool and slowly pressed some sort of liquid into the chip area and surprisingly, the chip hole reduce to very small size only.... cost about RM80...if u guys from penang...can do it at mainland at Megamall there..one shop called Speedy if i can remember correctly...

---

Added on March 20, 2010, 6:35 pmoh btw...the shop guarantee that the windscreen strength is like original..just that there will be a small mark dot on the chip area...can't totally make it look like new...

have you guys discussed about FC before in this thread?
i'm trying out petronas and it seems that petronas fuel is giving better FC...any comments?

wah lau eh...is this the infamous gearbox issue?

recommend to change ATF every 20k km... if car start to jerk...better pray hard.... or else time to aggressive save money for possible gearbox replacement....

if SC say gearbox oil is dark... why not ask them back 10k km only can like that ar?
if really need to change...10k km also i change lor...

till today...i never service my air cond yet...already 65k km....
but it's up to you .... this is like a preventive maintainance kind of thing...so maybe you service more often...you won't have problems with ur aircond in many years to come...

but among all stuff...air cond is the least likely people will service.....

Added on September 11, 2010, 6:07 pmjust make sure you change the CVT fluid every 20k km...and you should be fine....
