2014 Honda City (Gen 4)

nakaka adik magaral ng detailing!

Ingat lang. There is also a dark side to this addiction.
Once na achieve mo na yung ultimate mirror finish (especially if you have a dark colored car), mabilis tataas ang BP mo pag may makita humipo sa paint ng car mo. (ex. punas boys sa intersection, mall parking washboys, parking boyz na kumakatok sa rear fenders mo while pretending to help you park).

Kung black talaga ang gusto mo then by all means, go for it!
You just have to be strict with your maintenance schedule (as much as humanly possible of course).

My previous car was a Nighthawk Black City. I was able to keep it in pristine condition for 10 years, until I got rear-ended. It took a while before I got the car fixed. During that time, nawalan ako ng gana mag maintain. By the time it got fixed, the paint got really bad. The sheen was gone. The dagta and bird crap already etched in the paint. Yes, mabilis magreciprocate ng neglect ang black paint. Lalu na tuloy akong tinamad.

It was then that the 2014 city came out and an inner voice told me, "Maybe it's time to move on..."
And move on I did. But this time, I moved on with Taffeta White.

yea gusto ko talaga ang black, kung meron lang yung blue na kagaya ng asa australia un kunin ko.

the problem is ang magmaintain kasi ng car is ung pinsan ko asa singapore kasi ako work every 2-3 months ako nauwi pinas. so once a week lang yun magagamit ng pinsan ko. sana ok naman sya magmaintain.

galing mo na maintain mo black for 10 years.

Black / golden brown parehong high maintenance. Sabi nga ng ermats ko bakit hindi black? Yung dalawang oto sa bahay kasi black. Ayoko na kako, maganda ang black pag bago or magaling ka mag alaga.

Carnelian red ba high maintenance din?

Ano pinagkaiba nito sa luma nilang cvt? belt ba ito or chain? Torque converter for what?

Is the new cvt reliable? epic fail
daw yung lumang cvt ng honda eh. or case to case basis?

When the iDSI CVT City came out, we got 2 units.

One unit had started to get the dreaded juddering CVT symptoms after 6 years. The first few moments when you accelerate from standstill, the tranny would vibrate like crazy. Afterwards smooth na. Same when you engage Reverse gear.
The other unit (my unit) -- no problems. The tranny ran great until the day I let go of my car.

I have an officemate who owns (or rather owned) later model (2008 CVT City), and she also had the CVT juddering problem.

So I'd like to believe na talagang epic fail yung Honda CVT nung generation na yon. Siguro na swerte lang ako sa unit ko.

You guys think the VX+ is an ok upgrade? Or the VX is "sulit" enough?

Thanks

[LeoMarley]

Just go with the VX. Too expensive ang vx+ but you won't need the additional features.

Sir if you dont mind ask ko lang ano work nyo sa SG? Thanks!

Yes, stick with the VX.

IMHO:
- Hill Start Assist : Not sure how important this is. I've managed to survive without problems using my manual HSA aka the handbrake.
- Leather Seats : Very nice to have. I wish this was something that was included in VX. Pero this can be remedied with seat covers.
- Folding rear seats : I guess this would depend on your needs. But if you're going to haul stuff, maybe the Jazz is a better option?
- VSA & ESS : Now, this I don't know. Maybe this will be useful if you can have the opportunity to drive fast. Definitely not that much when you're stuck in Metro Manila. Maybe if you make frequent long trips to the province where you'll have a chance to floor it.
- Side Air Bags : Not sure if the usefulness of this in Metro Manila.
- Rear armrest : Meh...
- Driver Side Grab Rail : Meh...
- Tweeters : I guess pwede mo ito ipasadya later on.
- Dynamic Guide Lines for the back up camera : Now this is another very nice to have function! I'm quite sure this is just a software/firmware function. Sana may makahanap ng paraan to hack into the HU's system to enable this.

Anyway, that's just my opinion. Iba iba naman needs natin eh.

By the way, I asked my SA about the provisions for updating the F/W of the HU should a newer version be available in the future. I read kasi in the Malaysian car review site that Honda prioritized Apple support, but _might_ support Android in the future. So there is a possibility of an update.
So I asked the SA if they had the facility for updating the HU's F/W should an update become avaiable. I only got a blank stare from my SA. Maybe you can also ask the same question. Baka mas may alam yung SA sa dealership na bibilhan ninyo.

My guidelines naman sir yung camera ng VX.

I mean "Dynamic" guidelines.
So the guidelines on our VX is only straight
With dynamic guide lines, the grid should flex to the left or to the right depending on the position of your steering wheel. This will give you a better estimation on where the rear end of your car will go to when you're turning while backing up.

How long was your waiting time Sir?

Nung monday ako nag apply ng loan.
