| ![]() Thanks for your replies @fuelinmyviens and @itsashishsharma.I am sorry if my question was not clear. Actually I meant whether Honda has improved the build quality of the new City.I read a lot of posts about the Pre facelift version that the car suffered from rattles early in its lifecycle. So I wanted to know whether Honda has improved on this point and how it fares in comparison to the new Verna. |

All car's have niggles it depends on how the service centre addresses the issue and sets it right. I've absolutely zero regrets in having bought the City. Honda service has been good to me so far in this 6 months of ownership they are receptive, courteous and well versed in setting things right: that's what counts. I'd recommend the City to anyone: it's pricey but a wholesome package: "features" don't make a car, how it drives is most important. I've found the Verna lacking in seat comfort, it's very low set and lacks thigh support, especially in the back, and the new one is no different. At least, sit in the City and Verna back to back and you'll see what I'm saying. Last edited by Durango Dude : 8th September 2017 at 07:27. | |

Perhaps you could look at using a holder, to keep the mobile closer to the HU. That could solve the issue of range getting cut while you move the hands as well. There are smaller holders available these days which won't mess with the interior looks as well. Last edited by CrAzY dRiVeR : 8th September 2017 at 08:38. | |

Exactly what I mentioned. A small holder could solve the issues. Here's the one I have. It's so small that anyone barely notices it, but very effective in holding my 5.5 inch phone. Many similar phone holders are available these days. ![]() Also with a holder placing the phone right next to the HU - you won't face issues of the connectivity dropping when the hand comes in between the two. More pics in my car thread here. Last edited by CrAzY dRiVeR : 8th September 2017 at 11:07. | |

| ![]() Does anyone have the full specifications for the new Honda city 2017 please? I need this for parameterization of the Car OBD interface. Some of the details I am looking for are: 1. Gear ratio for each gear 2. Final Drive ratio 3. Brake Specific Fuel Consumption 4. Most economical Gear Shift RPM Thank you for having a look. Google didn't return much info . There are some Malaysian forums where they had data for the old Honda city , but the specs did not match the Indian version. |

| ![]() Durango dude I had bought a good quality mobile phone holder and yes it did not stick to the dash as the honda guys had put a dashboard polish . I solved the problem by taking a little doctor's spirit and cotton and rubbed it on the area I wanted the holder to stick and " Viola" it is stuck and have never had a problem so far it's been 6 months now. Do try |

| ![]() About to get my City car in another week ( V-CVT-Petrol). Need some guidance on Sun films (I'm in Chennai and needless to say how high temperatures soar through out the year): Does the car come with heat reduction in windshields, side/rear glasses ? Should we go for external sun films & how effective these films are . Was in 3M Care Care center and I was suggested to go with CR 70 for windshield and RE70 for side, rear glasses. Do they really reduce the heat as they claim. Given the ban on these films continue, I'm wary of taking risk of stripping them in near future ( & these turn out to be costly than I've imagined) |

If you really want a legal solution, get the glass tinted per guidelines. Last edited by McLaren Roxx : 13th September 2017 at 20:14. | |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Has anyone ever tried to buy fully synthetic engine oil and oil filter over the counter i.e. from Honda service centres? Do they allow it? DIY is what I am looking for. Why pay for labour charge, service charges, GST, etc? By the way, my warranty has expired. |

The window glasses aren't UV reflecting types ( like in baleno). | |

@sudhakaromr - you can get nice magnetic sun shades from GP Road (car specific for approx Rs. 900/set) and they are great by looks and also protects. I have it on my XUV5OO and very comfortable. Swami Last edited by swami69 : 14th September 2017 at 13:54. | |
