I was thinking to be separate so that the HC3 thread would be discussion between members and this one for general discussions.
We'll use the HC3 thread till we get our own Boards (in the not-so-distant future)  whistling.gif

Cool. If you need help, let me know. smile.gif

In Malaysia, it's called 3rd generation. Malaysia didn't get the first 2 generations.

Yupp. He gave me rm2550+free door visor(this one not ori, i guess). But i can get my car fast (diz month), so i can claim rm625 rebat, right??
*
Not bad. For door visor, it's easy to spot original or replica. Original uses clips while replica uses double way tape.

Just talk with my SA. She said "I haven't receive any pay slips from you, so I can't proceed with loan" FXXK!! If so, she should call me and inform me. I'm waiting her call. Now she tell me that she need the pay slips. Going to Jalan 222 this Saturday. After she get it, will apply loan. I'm getting March's car. So fxxking late. I've been waiting since 25 of Dec 2008.

Can those who has received their cars describe the procedure?

1. Apply loan.
2. Loan approved, wait for car.
3. Car reached, pay full amount of down payment.
4. Paid DP, SA will proceed with registration at JPJ.
5. Once JPJ approved, go to the showroom to get the car.

Or pls kindly describe? Thx.  notworthy.gif

Correct. Everything is in order.

Wow! V3 already!
I noticed the pricing for modulo kits got some mistakes with numbering 7,00??
Mine is 13.4km/l. Is it bad?
I reset my meter by holding down for 2 sec. It won't affect anything right? It start to calculate my trip from 0.0 till 17.8. Is that mean i have drove 17.8 km? And before starting my car in the morning, i see the cold temperature display on. Wait for 5 mins still there? Means my car engine temperature is low? But i thought it suppose to go off after a few second? Or after we start the engine, the engine became warm, then the cold temp light off?
I wish to install auto lock. (lock when press the brake only) and make my alarm louder. (too soft, even dog barking is louder than it)
What should i start off?
*
I will never buy original or replica Modulo kits because:
1. They're ugly.
2. They're over-priced.
3. Got kit macam no kit. A waste of time.

13.4km/l is not bad for new City. For the tripmeter, holding it any longer won't have any function or impact. Yes, it means you've travelled 17.8km. I noticed that new i-VTEC engines are hard to warm. Even my R20A engine is slow too.

Regarding auto-lock, you should fix one for your safety and convenient. Alarm will not get louder with default Honda security system. It's because it's embedded within ECU. There's only one way to do it - change alarm.

change the alarm? Mean whenever i want to lock and unlock the car, not using the original honda key. But using the additional new unlock lock device like our old car nowadays la? Cannot integrated into new honda key buttons?
*
Yes, change the alarm. They'll unplug your original Honda alarm and replace with the new alarm. So your original Honda alarm will be deemed useless, so do the buttons on your key.

The waveblade key is really nice. That holds me from changing my original alarm.

IMO it's not worth it to change to a wider tyre in order to trade below for a more 'stable" feel:
1. Price is really not cheap for new one, low trade in value - I think around Rm150 for the stock tyre
2. Will get bad FC & less pick up power

And attention to all NHC Owners... please take note that the areas that I circle in red are the very high risk area to get scratch easily! I already got some scratches on the passenger side sad.gif sad.gif
*
What kind of scratches? Deep scratches or those white colour? If white colour one, just use a wet cloth to wipe. smile.gif

yea im worry about that too. if only there is some sort of protective chemical can be coated on it.
hmmm although the tire looks 'thin' still it looks nice when the car is on the move. already saw a feel NCH (mostly black) on the road and it makes my heart itch.

congrats on the NCH V3 rclxms.gif

I believe those are only white scratches, which is also known as plastic scratches. Not like those scratches you always find on side step/door sill. Wet cloth will solve the problem. smile.gif

i suppose its the norm for new cars these days. even my friend's brand new swift got some fine scratches at the back door hard plastic. as for her front doors both have more leather wrappings than the NCH. how i wish car makers are not being stingy on this.
*
No choice. Plastic is easier to fit in and cleaner. Looks classy too.

QUOTE(elru @ Feb 18 2009, 09:24 PM)
maybe because your mother judges the car from its looks as in material sense. obviously, previous honda city has better quality built interior than the new one. but dont worry, new city also has its pros where older ppl dont usually find it amusing, they prefer more practicalities.
for me its overrated n overly expensive. and one of our forumer has very bad real life experience with it, proofed with photos, certified by me in which those photos are not altered by photoshop lol.
*
Don't say one forumer lah. It's me lah. shakehead.gif
I don't photochop lah. It's 100% genuine product from V-Kool!

vios J variant is the worst car i have ever seen from toyota. 70k+ to get that type of car, i would rather go for waja cps full spec. those buying j spec vios think that they bought something cheap and bargain, but they couldn't know that is failure product from toyota, and it is tin kosong. if 70k get hyundai accent 1.6 better alot, solid alot... (no offense, juz personal opinion)
