2008 V6 Luxury Thread

[tardotz]

Hi I've done about 3500 kms and drive mostly in sydney (mainly stuck on the M2) and I get about 11.4 l/100kms. When I drive in the suburbs I am now getting about 10.4. It seems to get better the more you drive it.

Yep, I am now getting 10.8 around the suburbs. I'm not sure how the weather affects fc. All of last week was raining and I had 1 Litre higher fc.

u guy got pretty good result, mine still achieving 13.0, but my car just done the 1k service today and clock at 850km so far. Hope it will improve a bit better later.

I am still waiting for my V6-L.......

there have been a delay of at least a week.....

Got a question about the Honda Bluetooth system

I notice on Honda's website where you clink into the details of the Bluetooth system, is shows "Accord (excluding models fitted with Satellite Navigation) - 2003 onwards"

So I e-mail a few Honda dealer, and 2 reply me, and one said its not compatible and claim she have confirm with the parts department people and and the other dealership said its OK for the 2008 model.

I notice a few of you mention you have/will install the Bluetooth system, so I assume it will be fine? Just want to confirm.

For those actually have the Honda one installed, how's the quality of the unit?


Cheers!

10.x L/100km is good. Beats the auto Euro's real life fuel consumption!

I got the honda bluetooth system for my V6L, but it isn't source from dealer coz its price too high. but I installed it at dealer and it working very well, and I saved over 300bucks compare to what dealer's offer b4.

ps: So in your case, did you order it from dealer already or not? i suggess u'd better source it from outside to save $$. and if you are pro, u can DIY the installation to save more.

The BT kit is superb. I am using it with Nokia and a HTC Touch (Windows Mobile 6 PDA). It connects first go and I have not found any faults or design/functionality issues.

ya, BT kit is great, the only negative point is "it is not integrate with the car as standard feature for V6L".

Yeah. Bummer I forked out all this money when the American version get this plus a bunch more extras for free like iPOD/USB port.

Bluetooth is a very standard wireless protocol and should work with all the current bluetooth enabled mobile phones.

Have you heard about any incompatibilities with this bt kit?
