The best that I found was that there is a small rubber belt in these mirrors and helps this functionality , a possible play in one of these rubber belts can cause the different timing in closure.However not sure if the mirrors in the city have this rubber belt mechanism or not. Below are some of the answers i found which are satisfying however not completely convincing. a) There is a purposeful delay introduced so that there is no overload on the relay to save it from fusing off. b)The angle of both the mirrors is slightly varied and hence they close at different speeds. Any other expect thoughts , kindly pitch in. cheers, pdma. | |

Which ares are recommended for low beam that would not void warranty? Though the stock bulbs are adequate in most situations there are times when you would want the low beam to be more powerful. | ||

But just after 2 days of service I again started hearing that noise. This time, I took the hondacarindia.com's portal to report this issue directly to Honda. This went perfectly on the head of the dealer and since then they have been asking me (infact begging me) to bring the car so that they rectify this. I took the car last Thursday and they have realised the noise now and they have asked me to give them the car for 2-3 hours so that they can completely rectify the noise. I will hopefully go to service station this Sunday for this 2-3 hours session. Just FYI, the service station I took the car to was Courtesy Honda, Okhla Phase II, New Delhi. No, I did not go for a tyre upgrade and I'm running the car on stock tyres. They are Good year ones. Last edited by harpreetsubhi : 5th August 2014 at 10:00. Reason: Grammar errors | |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Well the City does it again. 7705 Citys in July-2014. That's 7th month in a row for City with 7K+ dispatches from the factory. Its already breached the 50K mark inside 7 months. ![]() Can't really think about a Million buck sedan having reached 50K dispatches so fast. |

I experienced similar squeak sounds from my right front wheel, and had to take service center folks for a couple of test drives to confirm the sound. They later took the car for a few hours and rectified it. I haven't heard that sound after that. While that is done, I hear another metallic click sound when I go over the humps or pot holes and its not very consistent. So, the service center guys are pretty clueless how to narrow it down and rectify it. | |

I hear the same sound sometimes while going over humps, its more of a metallic clang. It was pretty consistent few weeks back but suddenly it stopped coming. I had shown it to the folks at magnum honda and they said that the suspension needs some torsion setting. However, I havent been able to take the car to the service folks since then for the above fix due to paucity of time. |

| ![]() I've logged 8,200 KMS on the ODO and will be heading for 3rd Free Service this Friday. Any tips, suggestions for what I need to ask them to check? |

May I suggest actually painting that chrome grill to shiny black and not the matt black. Same as body colour. Will look even better. | |

| ![]() the blacked out front grill looks real nice. i saw a few E variant citys' and found the non chrome grills to look much nicer. by the way i just drove friend's city and found the ride to be very unsettled. every little bump could be felt, is it to do with the suspension or is it the tires to blame Last edited by ishaanranderia : 6th August 2014 at 02:37. |

Both the mirrors of VX CVT open and close simultaneously though. Maybe it is a synchronisation issue on some cars that the service guys don't want to spend time on. |
