ISDI car is coming with Blaunpunkt radio,VTEC one is Kenwood.The radio is off while engine is at off mode,unless you modify the connection of your radio before.

I know tell me about it

It happened just now also. I'm really afraid it drains my battery till kosong then I wont be able to start my car or sth

Anyways..

I found a temporary solution

U know the button to press to push the thing downwards so that you can insert a cd

On the other side, there is a button to completely remove the unit.

I removed that :/ and when I leave the car I'll just leave it hanging there on its own
Dunno la why it happens..anyone knows ):
*
I got you,remove the display piece of the player. Just not sure what's the problem with your player.Perhaps toggle on/off is faulty?

using semi-syn oil now, definitely feel the difference; most noticeably the power come smoother.

my next service is major one, 40k. if i change to fully-syn can aa? any diff?

noob in this oil oil..
*
Semi-syn oil for me is enough already. Fully-syn oil,i know that it can stand longer before you change your next oil.

Of course only 1 bottle lah bro.. Why? U use 2 bottle to change CVT meh?  hmm.gif

Use 2 bottles can flash the gear oil from inside the gear box,1 bottle can only let the oil outside the gearbox changed.

QUOTE(neato4u @ Apr 29 2009, 10:00 AM)

Stock setting on our car would be properly like that speed only.170km/h is quite fast already.VTEC version can go higher.Myvi manual maybe can tapou you,not the auto version.But they have to rev. kao kao already.

Added on May 2, 2009, 12:02 pmHey guys

Had some problem with my city this morning sad.gif I was waiting outside my house on P and with handbrake on. Suddenly, the radio restarted and some lights on the dashboard came on (like when you start you car, the EPS light, the temp high temp low light) but it went off. Happened again a few times till I decided to turn the car completely off.

Then I couldnt turn the car on, I couldnt on the emergency indicators, I couldnt lock or unlock the car with my remote, I could open manually and just exit the car without any alarm going on.

I left the car for awhile, maybe 5 mins or so then when I came back I could lock and unlock the car with my remote, I could start everything again like normal. I even went for a short drive to try.

At that point in time, I deduced it was the radio (cos the radio was givin probs, coming on when the engine was off etc) so I removed the face plate.

But just now when I left the car to idle in P with brake on, it happened again. Now I cant start the car or do anything at all.

):

Anyone knows?

I moved the negative battery terminal a bit (is it meant to be movable?) and then i could start the car and everything again ): I checked my dad's car and the negative terminal is like screwed on so tight i cant even move it. So is it just a loose battery connection?
*
Is it your battery weak already?I've just changed my battery on Wednesday only. Battery k.o. after 2 year and 3 months.

my battery is the new kind ( i think) there arent any openings, just a + and - terminal

I guess it was just lose

had the mechanic tighten it (didnt have the tools and was partially scared >.<)

so now its okay smile.gif hopefully

i guess if battery was weak then i would be able to sort of start the car (crank it a bit) but when the battery went dead yesterday i couldnt start at all..so i guess it was just a loose connection

Does your battery connecters of both side get broken or cut when your mechanic tighten it for you?

nope smile.gif so far so good. no restarting of the "electronics" whatsoever.

and i think this has happened to me once before, when i was having my driving lessons

the instructor had to go fix the car a bit, so after that i was driving, then suddenly on an empty stretch of road, everything just went off. LOL? the lights, the engine, even the emergency signal.

he had to push the car to the side and play with the terminals a bit, then the car was fine.

so yes, loose connection i guess smile.gif

just that in the city, the engine didnt go off but kept on running. I guess thats some other component that keeps it running that was malfunctioning in the kancil.

Good to hear that. Your experience with the instructor last time was weired,he didn't considered on the safety on his students. shocking.gif Damn dangerous.

QUOTE(neato4u @ May 4 2009, 11:15 AM)
hey guys i just noticed City year 03 model the brakes are electronically controlled as well.. (or is it)?

I went for a car wash yesterday and the guys there told me to move the car in front a bit.

So i went in the car, engine was off, i turned the keys (engine still off) then switched to N gear. There was a bit of downhill so i let the car roll on it's own..

there's another car in front of me.. so i hit the brake.. and to my suprise, it's not working! So i pressed VERY HARD on the brakes and was about to hit my E-brake when the car stopped.

So when the engine is not running, the brakes are like manual and you really need to press VERY HARD for it to work. After wash i start the engine and drive a bit then press brake for a bit my car jerked and stopped aldy..

sweat.gif fhew.. luckily didn hit that car in front......
*
When car engine is off,usually can press the break manually.If you say like that,maybe the break is controlled by electronic?I'm doubt with it.But why you were not turning on the engine while moving the car?
