my 2006 Honda City --> Dashboard Rattle

**archerwin** · August 18th, 2006 03:12 PM

i already sent it 2x sa Casa to check the rattling sound pero nandun pa rin. binuksan na yung dashboard nandun pa rin. hay...

nakaka-irritate kasi yung rattle sa highway lalo na kung hindi pantay yung rattle...

I had the exact same problem with my 2003 City.
The rattling came from the stereo area.

Anyway, I had to take it to the CASA twice before they were able to fix the problem.

What Casa did you take your car to? Ako HondaKal.

erwin... saan banda ung dashboard rattle?

malapit sa HU? aircon?

**archerwin** · August 18th, 2006 04:10 PM

mazdamazda: sa may gitna and sa passenger side dashboard. badtrip nga eh. kaka-irritate yung sound.

ess: yung una sa Honda alabang, 2nd sa hondakal.

sabi nila nag insulate na raw sila. and sa test drive ok naman... pero meron pa rin eh... yung sa kaibigan ko kasi 2006 city rin bago halos magkasabay kami bumili... walang rattle sa dashboard.

yun lang yung problema ko sa city ko.

naku, me magagawa pa ba sila? magrerecal ba? yong problema na yan existing na sa honda city 2004 at 2005. di pa nila naayos.

kaya ako, gagayahin na lang kita: have owned one once, never will i own the same again.

once is enough for a wise man. we should have learned from your experience.

it does matter kung at or mt.

one friend of mine has mt, the other has at. older models but same forward cabin design. puro rattling dashboard. yong isa matagal na, yong the other one, ngayonh taon lang lumabas. nagtatanong pa sila kung magkano magastos nila pagbuksan ang dashboard to make the repair. di ko sila nasagot kasi di ko alam; and alam ko lang per my dealer (honda shaw) that it will take 2 to 3 days.

some tsikoteers complained that after they brought their units sa dealers nila, andyan pa rin ang problema.

as for us, as advised by psylocke, we called honda phils. we were "assured" (take note of the quotations) that they would coordinate with our dealer and have their technical personnel oversee the dashboard repair. naka-sked na kami kasi nasa 1,000km na kami. we are hoping for the best but expecting for the worst. kasi kung ma-repair kunyari yan ngayon, there is no guarantee na di na yon babalik (pag-masira na yong insulation na ilalagay nila).

will update you on honda's kapalpakan.

masuwerte yong walang rattle sa dashboard. (or at least for now kasi di pa lumabas?)

for those thinking of buying honda: learn from our experience.

dapat magrecall sila kasi palpak sila, particulalrly their honda city (with forward cabin design).
