hi hondabot, it is a noob question. I have a 2012 Honda City. It more than a year since I bought it but why it is just now that after the door was locked by the key fob, I see the Security Alarm red light blinking? What trigger this red light blinking? I tried unlock and lock by the key fob many time, and still blinks. Thanks in advance.

Hi Sir Hondabot, and other ka-tsikot,

Have some questions and requests. Can anyone recommend where I should have the following fixed for my Honda Civic FD 1.8S 2007, as diagnosed by Honda CASA:

1. A/C Clutch
2. Wheel Bearing
3. Shocks (Front Left & Right)

Need alternative as medyo masakit sa bulsa if casa all the way.

From Sir Hondabot's suggestion, my choices would be to visit, Alvin. Kaya ba ni Sir Alvin lahat ng nasa taas ayusin? Also read in some other thread that Fixstop is another option.

Some questions po:

1. A/C Clutch - may replacement parts na po ba available locally (will try to call Fertes)? or surplus parts(will try to visit Kaizen)? or no choice kundi casa talaga?
2. Wheel Bearing - sabi NTN, is a good replacement, others said Koyo or NSK, or should I go to casa for this?
3. Shocks (Front Left & Right) - read KYB would be a good replacement, ok po ba? Or again should I go OEM? I understand KyB might give a stiffer ride, am ok with that. Also is it more advisable to replace all instead of just the front shocks/dampers?

Thanks in advance sa mga tips at advise master.

I have a 09 Jazz. 1 yr na since I brought it sa casa, I went to Shell for change oil ang brake pads replacement. Ask ko lang kung yung spark plugs ay dapat n bang palitan? 5 yrs na kasi, pero sabi nun mechanic ay no need to replace pa. Pde ko bang palitan ng hindi iridium plugs? Ty in adv.

[wezz_zzew]

Better change the spark plugs at wag mo na hintayin na pumalya bago mo pa palitan. Masyado na mahaba ang 5 years and ngayon lang ako naka experience na mechanic na sasabihing ok pa yun dahil usually irecommend na dapat palitan due to its age. Baka naman takot lang yun galawin yung mga high tension wires mo dahil baka masira nya o nasira na at ayaw nya lang na makita mo. He,he. Mahal pa naman yun per piece.

Thanks...cguro its better na sa casa ko uli dalhin para mas sigurado. In the 5 years that we are using the Jazz ay wala naging problema, ang napalitan lang ay baterya, tires, brake pads and of course, langis. Mga ilaw ay lahat orig pa, wala pang napupundi. It is a very good car.

Hello Sirs/Madams! I've been reading this thread for quite some time already, picking up helpful tips from you guys. Anyway, I own a 2003 CRV which I purchased over a year ago. Aside from the usual change oil and change of brake pads, I don't know anything about car maintenance. Just this morning, I brought my ride to the Honda SPA for diagnosis after hearing a few noises under the hood and whenever I step on the brakes.

The guys at Honda took it for a road test, then had the car lifted, checked under the hood, etc. I left the casa in shock as I was quoted with a jaw-dropping amount to have the following fixed/replaced:

1. Gearbox assembly with leak; Vane pump with leak
2. Suction hose, tank hose, ret hose, drive belt
3. Oil pan reseal; timing chain cover reseal
4. Valve cover gasket; vtc gasket; vtec gasket; valve grommet
5. Shifting rod oil seal; rear crank shaft oil seal; front crank shaft oil seal.

Heck, I didn't understand the guy when he was explaining these to me as I couldn't get over my initial shock. Could someone be kind enough to explain to this Neanderthal what these all means? At kung ano ang effect nito sa engine, performance, etc. How about getting a second opinion? Do you have any recommended shops/mechanics who could fix the problems for a cheaper cost (without of course compromising quality)? Or should I just sell the car? Your help will be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Karamihan ng parts na yan kelangan na cguro palitan dahil sa age ng vehicle, usually oil leaks lang ang problems mo dyan, but I don't think those parts would cause noises. Kung wala ka naman napapansin na oil leaks paycheck mo sa ibang mechanic/shop for another opinion.

What kind of noise are you experiencing when braking?

Mga Sir/Guru,

Patulong naman po. Lakas po ng vibration ng dashboard ko. parang nanggagaling po sya sa may kiyambo papunta sa dashboard. nagpalit na po ako ng oem engine support kaso ganun pa din po napagastos lang ako sa honda spa. Everytime po na nsa 1500rpm up ako naririning na po ung vibration.
may nakapagsabi po sa akin na baka daw sa exhaust rubber mounting. gusto ko na din humingi ng advise sa inyo.
Honda Sir po auto ko naka headers po ako kaya lalo nakakaasar ung vibration.

Salamat sa mga magrereply.

Boss hondabot,

May problema kc ako sa kotse ko:

Honda City 1.3 iDsi
2007 model
70,000+++ odo

A/C problem po. Hindi nag ki-kick in ung Compressor kapag nakalapat ung relay ng compressor sa underhood fuse box.

Ok naman ung compressor relay.

So, para magka aircon ako, ang gnawa ng mekaniko, ni-bypass ung compressor relay at aux fan relay. Ayun gumana naman. Ang problema ndi nag cu-cutoff ung compressor. Ikot lng ng ikot ung magnetic clutch. So, ang naexperience kong problem lagi ako nag ha high rpm. About 2k plus rpm. Kada mag kick in ung aux fan/ radiator fan.

Dinala ko na sya kay sir gene sa mindanao ave. Sinadya ko un kc nabasa ko dati ung post mo sa best place for honda cars. So, binulabog ko sya kahapon buti pnagbgyan ako kahit 6pm na. Ngaun, chineck nya lahat ng terminals. Mali raw na binaypass ung compressor and aux fan relay. Un daw tlga cause ng high rpm.

Pagka check nia, ok naman daw lahat ng wires. Lahat ng harness ok daw. Pero d rn nia mafigure out kng bakt ndi mag kick in ung compressor kapag walang bypass. Hnggang sa nag come up sya sa conclusion na COMPUTERBOX raw problema. Baka raw may nadamage na resistor/ diode. Eh ako naman worried kc computerbox na agad prob. D ko lam san magpapa check ng computer box na reliable.

So main problem:
1. Hindi nag ki kick in ung compressor pag walang bypass
2. Pag naka bypass, nag eerratic idling. High rpm kasa kick in ng aux fan or radiator fan
3. Computer box?

Ano po ba dapat kong gawin? Sana po may makapag reply para makatulog na ko sa problema ko. Huhuhuhu. Salamat po kga sirs.

Memphis

Hi Sir. Sinilip ko po kanina ung ilalim ng auto and nakita ko po may tumatagas na langis sa ilalim di ko po alam king galing tranny un,. un po kaya ang nag cause ng vibration.

[wezz_zzew]

Check your fluid level kung between min & max pa. Baka nga sa tranny mo ang problema. Ganyan kasi naramdaman ko nun bago nasira tranny ko.
