I never like these stick on one's.

I have been using AC grills holders for ages. They work perfectly.

Suzuki Alto, Cultus, City, Freed, Corolla, Fortuner.

Even New Yaris in Dubai. Later it had android auto didn't need cable.

If you are comfortable with suctions ones they work pretty well too.

Are the brakes in this City good? I have had 2-3 times my ABS engage because next car was too close. The brakes are not sticky enough I think.

I am on stock tires. Car is 7k driven in 1 year. No brake service done.

[ifadey]

In my experience the brakes are good.

[chinyoti]

With yokohamas on my CITY, it comes to dead stop and ive never had that stupid feel of krkrkkr and the car not stoping as it should.

[ifadey]

Same here. Using Yokohamas and it stops super quick.

Asalamualaikum Everyone, I have been visiting this forum since I bought City 1.5 Aspire CVT back in December 2021. I have been using Yoko BluEarth (Es32) 195/65/15 from the beginning, since the stock tires were too narrow and got the Yokos in PKR 60K. However, now the car has been driven around 55k Kms and I feel that tires are worn out and does not provide the same grip. I have noticed that braking is not as firm as it should be and abs kicks in way too early, accelerating a bit hard also spins more than usual (tires have been regularly rotated and brake have also have been serviced as scheduled).

I have been researching which tires should I get and found out that same will cost me around PKR 120k and you also have a chance of getting bent tire. So, looked for the alternative in local and concluded that BG Thunder Max same size would cost around PKR 60k.

I wanted to get an opinion regarding grip noise and an overall review by anyone who has any experience with Thunder Max. Tips regarding adding grip to the yokos (so i can squeeze a little more life from current ones) is also welcomed.

Local generals might even be worse than your used es32s, they're that bad. Yokohamas can be found around 24k per tyre proper fresh import IA. For less range you can go for other cheaper proper known brands. Best option for cheap tyres for city nowadays is kumhos made in china. Can be found around 18k per tyre IA.

My Honda City bushings are starting to click here and there. I'll get them greased next week along with a belt adjustment along with general driveline checkup.

[chinyoti]

General tires are okay and they offer value for money.

I had been using Yokohamas in my father's 2010 Gli ever since but lately karachi roads are such mess that we would need a new tire every 3 to 4 months.

My father needs a rigid car with minimal break downs he drives at 40/60 kmph. Road noise isn't a problem for him, Corolla height is pretty okay for 195 tires.

General tires work perfect for him.

Have been using thunder MAX in 2018 Older gen city. The grip isn't perfect on sharp turns but does the job.

Hi all, what spark plugs come preinstalled from the factory in the GM6 1.5 city aspire? Are they iridium or regulars that need to be changed every 30K KM or so? Thanks.

[ifadey]

They are iridium. They should be changed at 100,000 km according to owner's manual.
This is for OEM Honda plugs.

Honda Atlas PK is going crazy over exporting a few locally manufactured units to Japan.

This makes no sense at all. As a GM6 1.5 Aspire owner, I can say the build quality is crappy even compared to basic Japanese KEI cars.

Wonder if these cars meet the Japanese safety standards, unless they'll be parked at a museum somewhere in Japan.

Honda Atlas is doomed imho.

[ifadey]

Exactly. Build quality is poor as compared to jdm Hondas. Rust issues are common in CKDs.

[roony]

I was told there was pressure from the govt for local assemblers here to start exporting. IMO this is just a farce to show that they have done something.

[alitayyab]

What's the point of exporting a generation old model except for showmanship
