Wah. So this is to encourage all to change to diesel/hybrid? Currently how many models emit below 120g?

Before this cevs stuff, people also buying petrol car, I don't think it affect anything besides lowering the paper value and fatten car agents pocket.. Is useless to car buyer in reality...

Agreed. Wana buy vezel buy now before July. Lol. Or maybe vezel retail price may still remain as such by then (assuming coe is still at current value by then), then perhaps more paper value if downgraded to A4..

Edited by Andyngps, 23 February 2015 - 09:04 PM.

actually, if you ask me, i feel CEVS will benefit buyers from PI, as the pricing is competitive among so many PIs, not like AD where they control the market.

�

so ultimately the savings will be passed on to buyers in a way or another for PI cars, just that buyers need to be aware

�

just my 2cts

Hi Brother

Can PM me the details?� Thank you and have a nice evening.

Bros, can PM me. Thanks:)

Likewise bro; looking for pps. Appreciate if can pm me too.

I have checked but the sound dun come from the top.

Could be from cables behind the head unit. I saw a junk of cables while my installer was installing the hu and I get them to wrap it with insulation to avoid direct contact with hard surface

Agreed. Wana buy vezel buy now before July. Lol. Or maybe vezel retail price may still remain as such by then (assuming coe is still at current value by then), then perhaps more paper value if downgraded to A4..

�

the effective depreciation difference is only 2.5k over 10yrs period i.e. 250 per yr if it's downgraded to the next level which is rebate of 5k vs 10k.

�

so the question is really, will COE drop by 2.5k after July 15?

�

my opinion, it will. but the next round of COE will probably see an 1-3k increase in Cat A given that the last 2 rounds have dropped about 8k (human behaviour...)

I have an offer for a S model Vezel at $115K.� May I know if that is a good price, based on current COE level?

Is not. I bought mine at close to 120k 2 months ago Coe is 67k and cev rebate at 10k.

Thx... Will look into that.

Is not. I bought mine at close to 120k 2 months ago Coe is 67k and cev rebate at 10k.

ur reply is the most credible bro!!

is this a hint that COE will be lower? more quota more supply!!

Hi bros/sis,�

�

have received, replied and sent out details to quite a few pax on the "lobang" i managed to get for my car on nano coating.

�

Would just like to reiterate again that i have no financial relationship with the service provider, what i shared was just my own experience that i have personally enjoyed. Becos it is humans involved in the provision of the service (paint defect detection,wash,clay,polish,paint correction & levelling b4 coating), there wun be 100% of anything especially when the boss is not 24/7 on the ground to supervise.

�

As such , wud very much appreciate that if you really do decide to engage them, pls PM & inform me yeh?(maybe contact number, number plate & car make etc) And do quote me to get the same deal i shared with you, or if you managed to nego even lower, let me know too haha. I hope you guys get to enjoy budget PPS for easy cleaning and protection. Give me feedback or share your experience in forum.

�

If it's something not satisfactory, i kinda feel responsible also,cos it's my online reputation at stake, let me know too; dun wanna get flamed for nothing. Then i will "niao" the boss to make good what was promised, like he has always meticulously did for my ride so far.

Swift Garage Pte Ltd Bryan, our price here is inclusive of COE capped at SGD 59,000. Rebate at SGD 55,000. Current level is SGD 57,199. Our price comes with 1 year road tax, 3 years/ 60000km or 5 years/100000km warranty, 1 year free servicing with Hitachi Jun Taiyo.1 � 43 mins �

does that mean if coe goes beyond $59k, buyer will need to topup? this is not guaranteed Coe at x number of bid, corrected ?

Ongkmeng, on 24 Feb 2015 - 07:46 AM, said:

Please do contact them for details.

�

I believe they would put in $59K bid only. And yes it is not X number guaranteed COE.

�

On every bidding exercise they should put in a $59K bid.

You can check easily if they bid for you or not.

Do ask them, if they did not do so, what is the implication.

�

If COE keep rising above $59K, I believe you should be able to inform them you want to top up.

�

you also need to check in the unfortunate event, if they are unable to secure COE $59K,

will the booking contract lapse? (for how long duration? )and will you get back full deposit?�

�

All the above are just my personal views.

�

Please please please� do contact them for clarifications.

�

Do not rush.

Hi Guys,

�

Have anyone has feedback or review on Jia Yi Cars Pte Ltd which is at Turf City?

�

They have their own website and facebook (seems legit from face value)�and seem to be quite a big PI company.

�

If any bro/sis has purchase their Honda Vezel from Jia Yi, please do share your experience if possible.

�

I am also considering to go for CS2 paint protection film or titanium coating when I purchase my Vezel.

�

My brother's 5 years GTI looks like brand new even till now with regular 6 months polishing from them.

Bro, not intending to sound mean but any car with regular 6monthly grooming (regardless of product)�plus weekly washing will continue to look very good :)

�

Hahaha I see bro and I have never send my car for professional polishing at all in my 9 years plus of ownership.

�

I think you are right.

�

I only know this one shop, CS-2 as I followed my brother in his car there and they seems pretty good in what they do.

�

I was thinking of Pain Protection Film as it can protect against stone chips or scratches....seems like better than going for regular polishing all the time.

�

The only thing about this PPF....don't know can last or not and whether it will peel off in the future.

�

I have seen cars with those matt stickers too and seems like a gd way to clean and keep the original paint from being scratched,

from my perspective,i see it as if COE is above 59k,anything extra they will pay for us from their profit. need to see if there is a no-top-up clause. or max top up till 59k.

Wanna ask fellow bros,

�

There are�

- CS-ll Titanium Coating

- CS-ll Ceramic Coating

- Paint Protection Film

- CS-ll Glass Coating

- any else??

�

What are the differences & which one to go for?

Can we have few Coating together? or we only can use one coat?

�

What we usually want are:

- Scratch protections;

- keeps the paint nice & shinny;

- easy for maintenance.

- protection from bird shits or chemical stains;

- etc etc.

�

I'm newbie on car protection.

Appreciate if fellow bros could advice & explain. Thanks :))

�

Cheers!!�

Nope, Capped at 59K mean they will only bid till 59K. If COE is 60k. Mean you won't get it this round.

55K rebate mean if COE is 54K, u get 1k rebate. If COE is 56-58K. u dun get any rebate.

No need for any paint protection stuff if you diligently maintain your car - weekly wash and wax at a minimum. Paint protection only makes it easier to wash for those who don't like to wash often.

�

Also, choose the correct colour for your car. If you choose a "dull" colour, no matter how you polish and clean it will still look dull. Bright colours look good even after many years, with maintenance.

My red Toyota looked really chio when I just got it 9 years ago, now it just looks like vomit blood with the occasional bird poop stirred in (me damn lazy, and old, and senile).

�

So yeah, I'll be going for PPS too when I switch to a new ride later this year, and hope the sky will help me "wash" my car more diligently.�

Lol red is a good colour, if maintained it looks great even after 10 years. I think better you wash your own car with clean water, rain water leaves the dust on your car and also water stains. Better you use clean water and wipe dry after rinsing. IMO wiping dry is the most important step to keep it looking nice.

I totally agree on the wiping dry after washing part.

�

I have seen car owners wash their car clean clean and never bother to wipe dry.

Makes me feel the desired end result cannot be achieved lol.

�

If like this, I better choose from white or silver and maintain it well hehe.

�

The PPF only appeals to me as I can't bear the sight of scratches or stone chips on the car body which is very common on our SG roads.

�

Bro, not intending to sound mean but any car with regular 6monthly grooming (regardless of product)�plus weekly washing will continue to look very good :)

�

Wonder�whether such paint protection coating can last 6 months�if it parked�the open hot sun everyday and periodically bombardment by lovely birds ?

Hi bro,

Can share the contact please?
so far ceramic pro seems the most promising and they have a lot of real customers car edvidence for years after years. And for my knowledge, ceramic pro is a international brand and not self labled. The boss is the one hands on usually rather than foriegn workers.
But im still looking at cheaper alternative to match the duribility and workmanship.

Thanks in advanve!

from my own experience n research can. although i used just under 1yr for my prev ride. product manufacturer claims 5yrs..but for me 3yrs gd enuff hehe..go for $100 touch up yrly n add coat. but dats for me.

cos my area alot of bird sai n tree sap. polishing alone without paint protection is very dangerous for e paint.

have watched this detailer give lessons..loadsa youtube vids to learn from

quite cool to research the new materials used. literally is a hard glass and ceramic coat

I did some paint protection on my then-new Civic many year ago (ToughS**l). They removed the original topcoat of my paintwork and coat the protection layer. Inspite of my weekly cleaning, I still got bad obvious watermarks. They re-coat again but I still got the same problem. I gave up totally after that.

�

Since then & after spending a few hundreds on such paint protection, I just do my own waxing and cleaning, and never get too bother with the exterior.

Hi all anyone changed their battery yet?

Hope not cause the 'maintenance' battery is kinda good for the stop start nature of our cars�

Bro i have repeated this a few times over this thread and so far you are the only one agreeing with me

I have bad experience with maintenance free batteries for a long long while last 3 cars all went kaput less than 1.5yrs like u

I work in the machinery line and my mechanics all say maintenance free battery are not good for long run as they have a tendency to lose power as you charge the battery more

i really do not mind topping up water as its also good to check my engine bay once in a while to see if there is anything wrong or amiss� [thumbsup]

�

I agree with you too bro but nowadays most WS always suggest maintenance-free batteries for convenience.

I myself also lazy to maintain car battery....kinda feel like First Parade Task in army hahaha.

�

My previous 3 Amaron batteries all lasted maximum for only 1 year 7 months and will kaput.

�

1 of my Amaron battery even lasted only 5 months before mysteriously went dead, heng still got warranty.

�

I remembered my Latio first time was also fixed with those pour fluid type (F&B brand I think) and it lasted for nearly 2 years.

well top up type batteries they still manufacture

WS or not they sure have one

if dun have then go somewhere else to change lor

so far i top up 3 to 4 times�

do it monthly and i notice the center 2 caps are usually more empty compared to the rest, i figured must be the stop start function and when engine is switched off.

I say this is because i have been monitoring the battery water level the since November and the two central ones shows lower levels upon close inspection.

anyway battery water cheap cheap to buy- 1.50 at petrol kiosk

Ya. I'm kinda scared using cry cell nowadays. The last few rides I have my dry cells never last me more than a year and sometimes even just half a year. Damn sway.

another way to screw the battery manufacturers is to keep claiming. they have 1 yr warranty i think. during 10th month, deplete it then drive in dry, get it changed free

a bit lehcheh, but who cares, get back some value

�

can i check with all Vezel CVT owners, are your aircon compressor fully electric? or is it mechnical? i,e attached via belt to engine to run.

If not wrong there's a special charge up spare battery in the boot compartment ..you have to take out the compartment and you might be able to see the special battery inside .probably for the aircon and some accessories when the stop /start is in used ...maybe I am wrong but you guys can check it..

�

cool, yeh would love to find out. Hybrid has fully electric aircon compressor, this allows during engine stop periods, for the aircon to continue running on cool.

�

If any bros can locate the spare battery at the boot compartment and share with pictures, it will be a great discovery!! As exciting as a treasure find.

�

In the pass when civic hybrid IMA stops, aircon kinda shuts down too.

�

pple in QQ thread also commenting that when their start/stop function kicks in , aircon not as cold. I suspect not using fully electric compressor

Those are not called charge up spare battery. Instead it is bank of capacitors that used to store up electric energy that used to power up car electronics and air-con when start-stop kick in. You can see that in the so-called spare tire compartment.

�

So the Vezel can be considered a�very mild hybrid car too [thumbsup]

Yes this is what i was shown and told by my SE as well. That is perhaps why Vezel has such good FC even for normal petrol variant.

One question though, will the bank of capacitors spoilt? How would we know if it is working or if it is spoilt, can the car still move? If yes, does it than means that the FC will be compromised? Also wonder how much would be the replacement cost. Hehe

Those are not called charge up spare battery. Instead it is bank of capacitors that used to store up electric energy that used to power up car electronics and air-con when start-stop kick in. You can see that in the so-called spare tire compartment.

�

sia lah! new information on the technology used makes me as an owner even more high haha!

�

very much like to see how the capacitors look like...

�

by right high quality capacitors made properly and stored propery should last and last. the car should not be generating so much amps to kill the capacitors, unlike blown ones in our house when there is a surge of electricity.

Bro, not intending to sound mean but any car with regular 6monthly grooming (regardless of product)�plus weekly washing will continue to look very good :)

bro i'm not comfy w regular grooming, as i think it will wear out clear coat faster.

Bro i have repeated this a few times over this thread and so far you are the only one agreeing with me

I have bad experience with maintenance free batteries for a long long while last 3 cars all went kaput less than 1.5yrs like u

I work in the machinery line and my mechanics all say maintenance free battery are not good for long run as they have a tendency to lose power as you charge the battery more

i really do not mind topping up water as its also good to check my engine bay once in a while to see if there is anything wrong or amiss�

�

Bro, totally agree with you. My MF batteries usually die after 1.5 years.

�

I will likely stick with maintenance battery. I like to check with Bros here if there is an effective way to check water level. I could not see the water level from the outside. Perhaps using a dip stick? Any advice? TIA

Can I check what is the shift point of the CVT with 80% throttle input in 'D' mode?

When I tested the Jazz RS, the shift point was at ~3k rpm. �Is it the same for the Vz?

Between G & X model, what are the differences? �Thanks.

�

Brother Baal how are you??

LOL

btw from experience the CVT shift is hard to predict but since vezel cvt is abt the same as the fit it should be abt the same as the jazz

but a bit slightly more power with it

�

the g and x model main diff is the head lamp�

the g is normal halogen lights and the x is honda proprietary LED (more swee)

So far ok. �Just came back from a nearby Batam trip with Kids. �More & more Vz on the road. �1 thing is Vz could be the new Fit in the sense that there were more PI Fit(s) than AD Jazz(s). � [laugh] �

No wonder I see the booking/listing provided by an mcfer, majority take the X. �Thanks.

not forgetting X model got cruise control while G doesn't have it..

How bout number of air bags? �Thanks.

Appreciate ur effort bro.� [thumbsup] �

How bout number of air bags? �Thanks.

�

main difference btw the G and X are:

�

1) 2 airbags v 6 airbags

2) Cruise control

3) LED Headlamp

�

you pay about 3-4k extra for those.

�

good luck...i still think COE is overpriced at current levels. i see my friends who bought 2 months ago, lost 10k almost instantly...sigh....

�

not forgetting X model got cruise control while G doesn't have it..

�

Does X model have DRL as standard.

yes.

the x model has more airbags interms of additional side airbags bro! :)

I am afraid no, it only come with led pole light for all model.

�

hahaha....sian right?

well, no choice....at least you get to benefit from a new car before others .. :)

�

somehow i feel that more to come...but in terms of magnitude, probably same or lesser..

i think fair range should be 40-50k.

�

anyway, good luck to all! only in singapore u punt your car purchase like punting the stock market.

�
another way to screw the battery manufacturers is to keep claiming. they have 1 yr warranty i think. during 10th month, deplete it then drive in dry, get it changed free
a bit lehcheh, but who cares, get back some value
�
can i check with all Vezel CVT owners, are your aircon compressor fully electric? or is it mechnical? i,e attached via belt to engine to run.

X Model's air con blower will continue running when the start/stop kicks in. But the blower's speed will be lowered and compressor cut off. So actually is no more air con, just that the blower is blowing air out.

thanks for the feedback bro. does it mean that therr will be no cold air also?

Nope. No more cold air. Just blower blowing out the remaining cool air from the air con pipings. So if you are stuck in a very long traffic light under the hot sun, you will feel hot after awhile.

When I tested the Jazz RS, the shift point was at ~3k rpm. �Is it the same for the Vz?

Between G & X model, what are the differences? �Thanks.

Let's put it this way. I realised vezel can hit 100km/hr without crossing 2k rpm at all...and yup, being cvt...like no gear shifting...

Nope. No more cold air. Just blower blowing out the remaining cool air from the air con pipings. So if you are stuck in a very long traffic light under the hot sun, you will feel hot after awhile.

I believe after a while when the temperature is higher than the AC preset value, the engine will cut in automatically and run the compressor again, even if you are still fully depressing the brake pedal.

Auto headlights yes, if you put it to auto. Wipers... not auto.

�

i was wondering how much does it cost to replace the LED headlight compared to conventional halogen headlights (G model).

�

undeniably LED will last longer but given the exorbitant prices that the dealer charges, think the cost will outweigh the benefits..

Thanks :)

I believe after a while when the temperature is higher than the AC preset value, the engine will cut in automatically and run the compressor again, even if you are still fully depressing the brake pedal.

Yes. I believe you are right.

anybody knows the downside of frequent usage of cruise control? I'm a lazy bugger, as soon as i hit KPE, switched on cruise control at 80km/h.. So that means im using it at least once a day going back to Punggol.. not sure if there are any "side effects"?�

�

and speaking of CVT, im really impressed.. was curious abt the rpm at each gear change but i ran out of roads before i could figure them out!�

�

I am not so sure about the compressor not working when the stop-start function kicks in. I thought it makes more sense from a design angle to maximise passenger comfort, and hence keeps the compressor working. The engine would cut in only when there is not enough charge in the super capacitor to operate the compressor. Having said this, I have to caveat that I had not experienced getting stuck (i.e. not moving) in traffic jams for longer than 2-3 mins.

I am a freq user of cruise control as well. Love it, especially when I see the GREEN ring, and know that fc is maximised due to almost constant fuel injection.

been using cruise control in my ex-legacy gt, ex-accord cu2 and now vezel for more dab a year in MCE and KPE. speed limit 80,my speed stable at 88/89, speed limit 70 at KPE,my speed kept at 78/79. within 10km/h above limit is legal hehe

hi all, I'm new to this forum :)

just a question regarding vezel X model. I got mine few weeks ago and have being monitoring the FC for my past few tanks. I'm getting like avg 450km max for a full tank which is about 12.5km/l although my last tank hit lowest at 410km :( I'm not a heavy footer with Rpm less than 2k most of the time. 50:50 on highway and on normal road.

Is this normal? its below my expectation actually. Everything is stock except that i changed to a 17inch Rims upon purchase

pls advise fellow vezel owners tks

bro, while you have 50% of time on highway, that may not translate to good fc by default. Few things that would interact to determine FC i highway:
- distance travelled on highway (short travels on highway does not benefit fc)
- traffic condition on highway (repeated slow downs & pick ups do not help fc)
- throttle pedal pressure plays a part. Lifting throttle paddle occasionally to allow body inertia to roll helps fc too
-etc.....,

Try again with these in mind and let us know ;)

End day, enjoy your car Is more important

I am on 17" Rims and 225/55/17 tyres. Tyre pressure at 240. I am hitting between 580 to 620km/tank. 50% city and 50% highway. RPM hovering around 2k with occasional short burst above 2k during overtaking. With ECO mode on all the way.

do bear in mind not all rims are the same. some are heavier than the other.

Hi all anyone changed their battery yet?

Hope not cause the 'maintenance' battery is kinda good for the stop start nature of our cars�

�

bro, silly question(s).

�

how you 'check' the battery water level? can't see from outside and i don't see any indicator mark whether it is low or not. do you just screw it open and check, then top up? or go to WS to do? how often do you do this?

�

thanks.

haha not a silly question bro, we all learn something new everyday

�

to check use a 20 cent coin to unscrew the caps and check the water level

by right can see from the outside the battery so far i can't estimate from there

so unscrew and top up accordingly

make sure not to fill to the brim and later water flow out wasted

please ensure u have adequate cloth or paper towel to wipe dry the battery area and the contact point or else the contact points will calcify

hahaha same same� [grin]

am running the same size tires and rims and tire tyre pressure with you too since last october

have been on ECO since until last week turn off to see how the difference

bro, while you have 50% of time on highway, that may not translate to good fc by default. Few things that would interact to determine FC i highway:
- distance travelled on highway (short travels on highway does not benefit fc)
- traffic condition on highway (repeated slow downs & pick ups do not help fc)
- throttle pedal pressure plays a part. Lifting throttle paddle occasionally to allow body inertia to roll helps fc too
-etc.....,

Try again with these in mind and let us know ;)

End day, enjoy your car Is more important

�

The allowing for car momentum to roll at constant cruising speed is very true. We often step too hard on e pedal in order to �maintain cruising speed. Means we're burning extra fuel but car is not accelerating.

�

Maintain good tyre pressure too! I get extra 1-2km/h with slightly higher pressure (my personal preference - 245front235rear for Vezel Hybrid)

Brand new cars you have to check tyre pressure every week for 3-4weeks, becos it has not "set" into the rims well yet. Immediately when i took my ride, the same night i went to pump up the tyres, within 5 days, pressure dropped and each tyre different, pump again, 1 week later, dropped again, 3rd week pump again..4th week, stable.

i just learnt something new from soonkuay too!! Thanks for the short lesson bro! priceless!

�

Wanna share something i just replied a bro from QQ thread who owns a QQ now..

�

My consumption not really stable as yet becos it's still under 2000km. I believe for now can get something like...

�

20km/l (70highway/30city) - light footed eco mode max 100-110km/h

�

18-19km/l (50highway/50city) - light footed eco or normal mode max 100-110km/h

�

16-17km/l (50highway/50city) - spirited driving and occasional full throttle

�

Also depends on weather too. recent hot weather my electric mode took a long time b4 kicking in.

�

Actually for this i-dcd hybrid system, it's a sports hybrid, meant for performance riding(0-100km/h in 8.5sec), for me to get such fc i'm alredy super happy, since my previous ride was 11.5km/l at best for 2.4L Accord JDM, which to me is also fantastic coming from a high cc car. Can easily save over $1000 a year on petrol.

Correct. Agree with you that not all rims weighs the same. I am using replica Taiwan rims so do not think it will weigh as light as a Japanese rim. Even using 17" steel rims if they actually have in the market should not cause the mileage to have so much difference.

- throttle pedal pressure plays a part. Lifting throttle paddle occasionally to allow body inertia to roll helps fc too

�

�

i totally agree with this and i always go gentle on the pedal and allow for body inertia rolls

it really helps in improving fc

actually its quite negligible�

i did do some study and comparison�

i have always use this site to gauge and estimate

Any light 17 inch to recommend?

hi thanks for your feedback. by e way, u are driving the X model as well?

All,�

�

I am planning to visit couple of PI's and X model is on my mind.

�

. Can some one give me some of the important key points to ask.. like, what is the COE rebate , COE bid is guaranteed or not.. ! I am a bit concerned as whether i will be part of the cheating if i dont ask all the questions and they will make use of my less knowledge in things .. :-(�

�

I can easily shortlist the top 5 PI's ( thanks to the post of people who have got the car as well as booked ) and on that its mentioned it is for reference and people have to do the due diligence.

�

So in short my question is "what are the due diligence to be done? "

�

thanks a lot�

been using cruise control in my ex-legacy gt, ex-accord cu2 and now vezel for more dab a year in MCE and KPE. speed limit 80,my speed stable at 88/89, speed limit 70 at KPE,my speed kept at 78/79. within 10km/h above limit is legal hehe

Bro, i read the manual and tried to do cruise control but failed to set it. Can enlighten me how to set it??

�

Instead of FD1 R18A engine, Sinkies have to settle for the small old style L15 1.5L for our HRV... and ours costs way more than Bolehland RM120k HRV V model.... dollar to dollar.
