confirmed - honda city 3g (2003) have electronic assisted braking system.

I've tried this yesterday on a downhill road. You should try this too and confirm.

Preparation : Make sure road is hilly enough so when you put the car in N, it will roll down slowly.

1. Turn on engine, switch gear to N
2. Pull handbrake
3. Turn off engine while gear in N, press brake a few times
4. Switch gear to R, press brake a few times
5. Switch gear to N
6. Release handbrake
7. Press brake pedal

You should feel brake power is 1/10 and you need more force to stop the car.

Pull handbrake to stop the car.

Start the car, and you will feel the difference.

In 3.5 years changed 2 batteries already? Your battery dead is because of overdrawn in current from your car? If need battery replacement also don't get from them,theirs are expensive.

Er really? I thought mine is slow
I'm thinking of adding the Powerbooster and Miniturbo. Based on reviews by others, this should further increase pickup and quite cheap compared to other mods.
I second that. Plus, don't get the maintenance free battery but get the water type instead. I have a neighbour who's a foreman and a machanic friend that both say water / acid? type is better. Recently bought a heavy duty battery cost me about 200+ i think. So far very good, even if i leave car for some days can start with ease.
