| ![]() Hello, what you have seen must be the Honda City/Grace( JDM name ) hybrid car which comes with the 7-speed DCT (which is a poor copy of German dual clutches). It looks very sleek since its not a physical gear shifter but a mere switch mechanism which then triggers an electrical system to slot in the gear requested. |

| ![]() My brother's has recently purchased the Facelift version of City. From past few days, the vehicle navigation was not working with some error of missing folder. During servicing the rep told that the card is broken and it costs somewhere around 8K to replace that card. I am wondering that the card used is simple Micro SD card. what makes it so costly? Will it be possible that I purchase the card from market and load the files if they are available somewhere else? Spending 8K on just a card will be stupidity. Please advice. |

Too bad City doesn't come with Android Auto or Apple Car Play. I haven't used the built in navigation even a single time because of Android Auto - Google Maps serves the purpose in a better way! ![]() Last edited by clevermax : 2nd December 2017 at 16:23. | |

![]() It was a faulty differential assembly. As part of the fix, differential assembly, a set of bearings and crown (that's what they said) were changed under warranty. If I understood correctly, crown is kind of a gear (with grooves) on which the drive shaft mounts. I have to say I was not happy leaving my 3 months old car with them for 2 full weeks but now I'm relaxed that the issue is resolved. Here is how it sounded before: I don't have a video on the lift of how it sounds after fixing the issue but I took an extensive road test for about 40 kms with the technician who worked on my car present with me throughout the drive.

Also if you buy a SD card, can't the files from another car be copied into it ?? Last edited by Altocumulus : 5th December 2017 at 22:47. | |

![]() Anyways, about the quoted post. That is what my doubt is. If it can be done then surely there is no point wasting my money on stupid SD card. Can anyone please help with the files. I'll but a SD card from market and copy the files from here. Thanks in advance, ![]() | |

| ![]() Could we collectively bring this issue to Honda senior management? The digipad is an abomination, and even if they don't care, we should voice our concern that even low end Maruti's today come with better HUs. This might force them to support android auto or perform some upgrades. |

According to me, the android platform will also need to be upgraded and that won't be possible if the needed hardware is missing. | ||

| ![]() +1 to the point on Navigation. It shows weird routes when driving and even the traffic info is not updated real time. I understand the process of Traffic update is taken through feedback from the same map users of that route, however, it is pointless using it as you have to switch to Google Maps to get better information. Also, what SD card to use? I had bought a Rs. 650 SD card of Kingston and the Digipad does not read it. I tried it in my Father's WR-V and the same issue. The SD card syncs well on my mobile and laptop. I know the Honda USB reader slots only read a selective set of USB devices but has anyone cracked the code of the same? I have a Kingston 4 GB pendrive which I carried over from my Brio and the City reads it as well. |

| ![]() Hey guys, I took delivery of a petrol V MT two days ago and the car has been great to drive so far. However, I noticed something that Ive never faced in any of my diesel cars, the front of the car especially the bonnet and fender areas get so hot even after a short drive, is this normal? |

Thankfully I trusted my instinct and relied on Google maps. Otherwise I would've ended up in Karnataka for sure ![]() | |
