Hi guys,
Just need to get a few things answered. :honda:
When I drive (around the city) I normally have it in 3rd gear (Auto) then when I need to do 70km/hr or above I change it into fourth, is this the best way to handle it? My father does the exact thing in his SS V8, What are you recommendation's on what gear's I should have it it?
I have a few mates in Camry's and Skylines that if they are going about 10km/r they put it in first and 20 goes into 2nd etc etc, Should this be done in this car? I havn't tried it..although my father did on the hill and did a bit of a burnout in 1st gear. (Mistake, Thought it would be like his V8 :confused: )
Is Drive (4th Gear) going to be more economical? Or should I use third and do what I said above?
What are some good pointers and tips on how I should look after the car and check the engine? Any good oil's for it etc??
Also, my Central Locking is failing, Sometimes it lock's, it unlocks itself etc, where should I get it replaced/fixed at? Would JB Hi Fi do? Or should Honda do it? Im taking it to a place called Nova Car Sound, Honda put me onto them, Any thought's?
Is there a major difference between the VTi and EXi?
Im sure I have an EXi, It says it on the back of the car next to Accord, But the Paper Work says VTi and the Dealer advertised it as VTi so im pretty confused. :confused:
Just that I need a dashboard mat, ISP said they are not sure if a VTi will fit it.
Thanks people, I know it is a long read too..But I am very thankful! :)
