2014 Honda City (Gen 4)

[kabute13]

Hi Guys, New here sa tsikot and sa thread.

Ask lng ako suggestion, I recently bought a 2nd hand 2014 City. Last PMS was June 2019 at Honda Alabang and was regularly maintained there as well. This was verified by the owner and by Honda Alabang via Honda Txt although wala sa PMS booklet ung record ng previous maintenance. Should I still bring it there for it's next PMS since they have the record or can I consider na outside options? Thanks in advance.

if you’re from the south or willing and have extra time to go south, i can recommend “bukid tuning” in sta. rosa. getting an appointment is a bit of a challenge, but really worth it.

Planning to change my transmission oil/fluid outside of the casa sasabay ko na sa change oil since wala na rin namang warranty.

Will buy Honda transmission fluid na lang sa casa then pagawa ko sa labas. Safe kaya?

I heard kasi na sensitive daw city natin when it comes to transmission oil and baka may certain "standard" Honda when it comes to changing transmission oil na hindi alam ng ibang talyer.

Last nag change oil kasi ako, sabi sakin ng mekaniko "sir transmission oil palitan na rin natin"? not sure if he's suggesting na transmission oil na rin nila gamitin ko because afaik dapat Honda transmission fluid lang dapat gamitin.

Na alarm lang ako kasi parang hindi alam nila yun na dapat honda transmission fluid lang? Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

Reputable pa naman yung shop na ito dito sa south manila. Imagine if nag sige pala ako

easy job... drain and fill lng yan. proper fluid and volume lng. dont rely too much on mechanic knowledge. bring your fluid.

Las pinas Bro. Sensitive pa naman transmission ng honda natin when it comes to fluid if I'm not mistaken


Customer Cradle, reputable shop naman and dun ako lagi nagpa change oil lagi, pero nagulat lang ako kasi inalok ako na palitan transmission fluid eh wala naman silang honda fluids kasi shell lahat ng fluids/oil nila dun. Again correct me if I'm wrong sa mga suki ni cc.

Parang meron din silang Honda fluids dun sa "Staging Lanes" section ng Customers Cradle.

Last time na nag-try ako magpachange CVTF sa Customers Cradle using casa bought CVTF, tinanggihan nila kasi hesitant yung mekaniko dahil walang indicator/dip stick yung cover. Di daw nila maensure kung ma-overfill or underfill nila. This was back in 2016 for my GM6. Baka ngayon alam na nila kasi may experience na sila sa GM6 CVTF.

i equate this "maintenance-free battery" along the lines of "lifetime lubrication of the transmission".
in my opinion, the maintenance-free-ness will enable the battery to go beyond the warranty period. but i believe that if one adds liquid so's the plates do not show, the life of that battery might be even longer.
opening it up for inspection day one after warranty lapses, may be a good idea.

ok doc. natop up ko na so far wala naman problema hehe

oh ok. I've read stories kasi na nababasag yung rear glass while keeping the rear defogger on, sa sobrang init nung glass then umuuulan or malamig sa labas. but the other day, I've read na may nabasag na front windshield na naka on yung defogger, I thought baka same lang din nung sa nangyari sa rear glass.

not sure kung bakit nabasag, sobrang lamig dapat ng buga nun and sobrang init naman nung windshield dapat siguro bago mangyari yun. like glass and hot water

i do not believe, that a defogger can cause that.
but i do believe in very small, near-invisible old damage, that dramatically propagates at the snap of the fingers, when stimulated by... stimulus.

Meron na ba sa inyo nasira yung fan motor?
Dun sa akin, honda city 2014, nag-oeverheat daw nung isang araw, 'tas nung tinignan, hindi umiikot yung fan sa radiator, pareho.
Pinalitan sa Honda Kal ngayon, 14k daw gastos.

Anyone had a similar experience?

some years back.
my 2003 cedia's fan malfunctioned.
i balked at the oem 8K they were asking for the entire assembly, at the store. walang mabiling motor lang.
i used a 1000 peso china-made assembly that we made fit, in the provided space and mounting lugs.
ok naman for a year, 'til the day we sold the car.

This happened to our 2009 City before. The fan motor broke and when we asked the casa about it, they told us that the whole radiator fan assembly will need to be replaced. The quote was around that price. So I went to see a trusted auto shop and they told us that you can replace the fan motor only without having to replace the whole assembly.

The motor is made by Denso and luckily the nearby radiator shop had a surplus radiator fan motor from a Vios. Just paid 500 for the fan motor and another 500 to my trusted shop to install it.
