Great!
Thanks Jac...I certainly will try that.
light weight rims yea...? sounds weighty on the price.
I'll try recky for those rims, thanx
anyways..
anybody had problems with steering pump and its effect?

By coincidence I just replaced my steering pump with a reconditioned unit few months ago. Problem started with minor leaks of ps fluid and the steering will go heavier due to lost of pressure. According to my mec, the seal inside is broken, not worth to open up and replace it as the cost will be higher than a reconditioned unit itself.

Hi...I'm drivin a '08 model...all stock hehehe...can join ka?

Btw having a problem hope can help...when starting car there be a noise (x sure how to describe it but safe to put it as grinding noise)...not every time tho notice it bit more when engine is cold...hope can help n assist...tq

Welcomed. Mine is a much older model but yet to encounter what u mentioned. Perhaps just bring it over to the mech? If the noise is not irritating nor obvious or causing any trouble, suggest u leave it so(believe the mech will say the same).

I have brought to Honda sc...claimed its d starter n cost to 'fix' about 3k!!!...I'm just trying to get a 2nd (or 3rd or 4th hehehe) opinion on dis...so far it has x effect on d overall of d car just that it's worrisome coz when it happens it's quite loud...

Now that u mentioned yea it makes sense. I suppose the sound will more like metal clicking noise when u turn the ignition. Normal occurrence when the starter start giving way is some may experience harder to start the car during hot weather while some may be the total opposite. Suggest u bring it to 3rd party mechanic for a much cheaper quote, will expect less than half of what sc normally quote.
