I think we're getting the same batch. I booked mine end of Feb 2010. SA called me this morning confirm my car is ready. Tomorrow morning do car number registration then I can get my car tomorrow night.

Need an advice here.. Do you guyz think I need to wax after getting my car?

I planning to tint Ray Barrier. Got quote RM1600 full set plus free Bali trip. Worth it?

What kind of security? steering lock or satelite security system?

I got my White 2.0 yesterday too.. I booked mine in end of Feb. Yes White is the best but this morning raining make my car dirty already..

I use Ray Barrier for my new wife. Heard my friend said Ray Barrier might have some problem using smart tag and gps. Tomorrow I will test it out..

I wash my car almost every day..

To avoid your car get dirts just park in door parking..

Wanna ask you guyz.. what is your new facelifted 2.0 fuel consumption? Mine about 11litre/100km .. driving mostly KL and PJ area

I wash my car with TurtleWax ICE super shine after wash. You should dry up your car after washing. Or else sure will leave watermark on your car body or windows. So dry it as dry as possible.

Damn.. i got my new Civic 2.0S 2 weeks back. SA sent my car for tinting and I collect my car in Ecotint Hartamas tinting shop. After few days I realized whenever I wash my car or got into rain, everytime I wind down and wind up my car windows inner part were wet!
3 of the windows having this problem.

I went to Honda SC for my first service and complain about this. They claimed that it was caused by the tinting shop. So after car service I straight away drive my car to Ecotint Hartamas, they said its because of the rubber not good enough. Ask me send back to SC.
Then one of the Ecotint sales girl said wait for my manager got her new Civic then we will show whether her new car got this problem or not. What the hell man even you show me or not I don't care I just want to solve the current problem!

So I called up my SA ask him to settle for me. He said he will discuss with Honda CS's manager and get back to me.

WTH! Even my old Proton Wira also never have this kind of problem. Somemore this Civic can buy 6 of my old Wira.

Anyone can enlight me what to do? Just wait? Wait until when?

P/S: Never send your car to Ecotint Hartamas. They tinting skill sux! I tinted Ray Barrier, after few days got my new car my rear window part of the tinting film came out, roughly about 1 feet large. I sent it back to the shop and they touch up for me but still alot of bubbles. I ask them to replace new one for me. They said can but we won't guarantee if we damage your heater. ZZzzzZZZZZ............

yes.. after wash my car next day wind down and wind up.. the inner part were wet.. there are water mark there even use hand touch can feel the wetnes.. what makes me even angry was.. the water are dirty and smelly! after it dry up itself there some watermark there.. dman it!

OK guyz. Now confirm is Honda issue. Ecotint on the spot tested spray light water to new Honda CRV, Honda Accord, Honda Civic & Honda City car windows. After wind down n up the car window all of them inner part of the windows were wet! Theirs just slightly wet. Mine is worst.

Those who just got your car try it out and let me know are you having the same issue or not please...

Actually those cars they have tested infront of me are purely new and just ready for tinting. sigh

duh.. please read properly my previous posts.. it's nothing to do with the tint now.

I went to Angkasa Honda Service Centre at Jln Ipoh last 2 days. The Service Advisor test another 2 Civics infront of me. Before he tried I told him "please don't show me all these things no matter other car got problem or not I want my current issue to be solved!" He said I am just showing you.. tiuz.. what's the point?

I direclty talk to the SC Manager call Mr.Tan. He just smile at me and said give him 10 minutes. He went back to office and called up Honda HQ. They said this is Honda design problem so they can't do anything.

I voice up and said "This is not Proton ok? Even Kancil also don't have such issue. If i knew this problem earlier I will rather go for Mazda3 than civic!" Then he said he HQ said "Some people can accept so they will just don't bother, if some people do'nt accept we will try to find out a solution."

They said might modify my car. Just give them another week they will call me. So i just wait and see.

Actually I've thought of modify it myself. I really damn sien dealing with this kind of Malaysian style service.

means they will only start recalling if an accident happen in malaysia?

I just called up Jln Ipoh Honda SC just now. Surprisingly the lady agent still remember me. Maybe I'm famous in the SC already. She said they are trying to modify the power window rubber and experiment it first then will get back to me. But I'm not sure how long do I need to wait

hmm.. I don't think so. I believe this is normal for all Honda cars. You can compare Japanese cars and European cars. Japnese car door rubbers are so much softer than European cars. Before I bought this car I already know Honda soundproof not that good.

But anyway I really didn't expect so many problems with Honda cars.

especially tyre sounds on highway.. michelin pilot preceda not so good?

does it really works? roughly how many horsepower will be increase? i know outside selling rm260 you can get cheaper than that?

Honda Service Centre advisor tested 2 2006 FD infront of me. Both also having same problem.

Honda sent me a letter saying that this problem is COMMON . I received a called from Service Centre this morning ask me to send my car over they will modify for me. Honda HQ will not bare the cost so Dealer have to bare the cost. who cares? I just want my problem to be solved.

Angkasa @ Jalan Ipoh. I haven't send my car there yet. As they told me need 1 whole day to do the job. I afraid I can't reserve a free time. Might send it next week.

Yeah.. I bought it in Angkasa Jln Ipoh showroom. I don't think they will serve you as you're not bought in Angkasa.

These few days I will be busy moving to new house. I will scan the letter and post a pictures step by step guide how to test your car.

Really dammnnnn sad.. Honda Civic RM130K everymonth paying rm1k instalment have this kind of shitty problem. Even my old Proton Wira don't have this stupid problem

check on your side door sticker recommended should be around 210psi. All Civics are bumpy even Accords.
