Hey guys, I'm posting my inquiry here since it's a Honda channel forum in ZTH.com. Well, I've a colleague currently driving a spanking new Accord 2011 facelifted version of the 2.0 VTi-L specifications & he complained that the car rattles during idling while stopped at traffic lights.
I've experienced it myself earlier today when he drove me out for lunch & I can felt the vibration on the steering wheel & the parking brake lever too. He only clocked 15,000 km up till now & honestly, he'd complained this issue to Honda service centre for the past few months & was told there was anything that they can do about it. He was told that currently they have don't have the latest firmware/software to fine tune the engine's idling yet & have to bear with it until Honda come out with the latest firmware/software to rectify this issue.
Therefore, I'm asking any of u guys here experienced or heard your friends who owns the same car model variant who have this same problem? Honestly, I feel that such a new car can't have that kind of vibrations with such a low mileage clocked on it. Even on my 15 yrs old SXV-10R Camry & 6 yrs old Vios doesn't have that much vibration compared to my colleague's Accord. Looking forward for your input & suggestions here. Thanks in advance!
