Agreed with bro @rationalexuberance. I am driving X model. My first 1k servicing WS used 5w40. They do not have w30 & they strongly recommend w40. My FC was about 15.5-15.9 km/l.

 

My second servicing (5k), I brought my own 5w30, LQ. FC became 17km/l, quieter & more responsive engine. SE do not provide EO.

 

Do join us in our Facebook. We are also organizing to install tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), which I think a "must" have as we do not have spare tyre and a vezel gathering on 29 mar.

Hi all , I have been reading this forum for the past 1 month and have gained a lot of knowledge from the discussions on the floor. I ordered a vezel at the end o; February cos I feel in love with the slick look of the car, it's LED reading lamps and its touch screens etc . I bought the X model for 106888 from pristiage automotive at eunos . The PI looks reliable and I signed a package with 6 bids guarantee COE with out top up n paid a 10 k deposit . I have not receive my car yet cos I think it is still early as I am promise the car in late May , June time . The PI say they have no existing x model stock so I was contemplating paying 3 k more for the Z model which comes with some nice aesthetic features too. Though , mov exceeds 20k , and no news as yet . I am currently driving a merz B class that is coming to 5 years , thought I wanted to change to a vezel and see if it is comparable in functions . From the video I watched in u tube , it seems like the vezel trembles a little which traveling at 60 km/h , I hope it is the camera that is not seated properly . Can anyone share about their driving experience and also the best radio model to upgrade to if I want GPS and blue tooth for my car . This and really excited about owning this car , my first japanese car in fact . Thks

 

Bro,

 

Generally, if you are on Econ mode, the drive will be a bit sluggish during move-off. Otherwise, the pick up is quite acceptable. The entry level HU would be 2650BT, if you want just GPS, blue tooth and listen to music from your iphone or android. If you want to cast your iphone screen to the HU, you may have to go for the highest end which is 8650BT.

Bro,

Hi Bro,

 

Only iphone screen can be mirrored onto the HU? What about android phones? When the phone screen is mirrored on the HU, eg, playing a movie, the sound can also be played via the car sound system?

 

Is this the only additional feature that 8650 has over 2650?

 

What is an acceptable upgrade price from 2650 to 8650?

 

Sorry for the many questions.

 

Thanks! :)

Hi, my relative just collected her Vezel, she mentioned that whenever the car moves away from traffic light the car lock releases. So if there were 10 stops along her journey, she will hear 10 times of unlocking sounds. It that normal? Or she has accidentally some button? Lola advise. Thank you very much.

My guess is the engine re-starting sound, after cutting off at stationary position.

Did she engaged to park while waiting at the traffic junction? The door lock automatically locked the door when speed exceeded ..... I think is 20 kmh and auto unlock when gear is put to park. Hope I did not misunderstood your question 😊

The engine restarting is loud enough that you can hear it?

Thanks for your reply. But I doubt so.

Thanks for your reply. She confirmed that she did not engage d "Park" while at the junction. Could she has pressed any button? Thank you.

Sorry not sure what causes the frequent car lock but this shouldn't be the intended feature. Honda make good car. I think many will agreed to it haha.

If it is really the door auto lock function she should bring the matter back to pi.

Keep us update dated.

There can only be 3 possibilities for the unlocking (all doors).

 

1. In Park mode (assuming the standard factory preset)

2. Master Unlock switch at the driver door side.

3. Remote key unlock button.

 

If those are not done, then I would think there might be something wrong with the doors locking/unlocking system or mechanism.

I would also suggest as bro turboless - go back to PI.

No 3rd party car alarm that could have activated the auto lock? Edited by Andyngps

Hi,

Sorry that my relative did relate the issue clearly. In fact, she has the habit of engaging the "P" while at all traffic junction, thus, the issue. It has since resolved and thanks to all brothers who had responded to help. Thank you very much.

Agree! I used to religiously send my car to CS-II for polishing. Nowadays, I just use this company called Lucky Car Polish once in 6 mths, cos they do door to door service. haha

I am now using them (Lucky Car Polish) for my Vezel and it needs 5-6hours and they are really really detail in polishing. No rushing. And very pro as if the car is theirs. And $400 is a pretty good deal for me. I have not used the others so I cannot comment.

 

And thanks to bro rational for the recommendation.

This habit is not recommended. It do more harm than good. Better to leave it in "D", if the stop is longer shit it to neutral and "pull" hand brake or activate brake hold.

Agreed. And it makes the eng cut off function redundant too.
