An update at 34,000 kms.

Its been six months now since I bought my OHC AT . Have done a total of two services since I got the car and the bills came to 1900 and 2500 respectively. Car is serviced at Linkway Honda Mumbai and I have made it a point to keep a record of all services. I had bought the car at 24,000 kms and the odo has now crossed 34,000. The 35k service is due next month and amongst other things the brake pads are due for a change. I have been driving the car very lovingly and it has never crossed the 55/60 kph mark in my everyday driving. FE has been the same between 10.5 to 11 kpl with full AC at all times.

During this period I encountered a total of three punctures wherein I had to replace the tubes. Tyres are in good shape and I will be seeing off the monsoon on them . Alloys and new tubeless rubber should follow then. I dont want to ruin new alloys on the potholed Mumbai roads.

I'm not doing any mods but I plan to fit the tail pipes of the OHC Vtec onto my car. No performance gains but it looks great.

Next update in due course of time
