There is just one thing that i forgot to mention in that post... there are 2 cables attached on the back of the a/c temprature and air throw position knob, u will have to disconnect those cables too...

and sorry i dont know the color of speaker wires

Okay guys, i finally got time to wax my car the second time.. washed and waxed it for the second time yesterday and im loving the results... every panel shines like new... paint is sooooo slippery and smooth... i can now see shiney grains inside the paint, i must say i ve really been missing them for quite some time

pics dont do justice at ALL... but thats what i ve got for now, right now i have a lot of guests at my place so im a bit busy... will take better pics soon after 3rd application...

the scratch that i got are almost gone after compound polish... the dent remains, though...

Your truly

yaar i ve heard that speed-to-assist thing about EPS too but im not sure if thats present in all EPSs. n i really doubt that the city or any other local car has it. i tested an audi (which was installed by OPTIONAL extra called servotronic, which is the same feature that u pointed out) and i could really tell that im having variable assist from the steering. at 160km/h the steering felt soooo damn good , it was kinda solid, stable... and at slow speeds it was very light... my point is, if a car like audi a5 provides this feature as an EXTRA, do we expect to get it in our city as standard?

i think the best way to test that wud be by lifting a city on a jack, speeding upto good speed and then try to turn it and feel the difference...

have a look at that thats from service manual of honda city

AHHH! Finally!!! U have the bling bling. AWESOME YAAR.

Awesome. Ahmed bhai,one lil suggestion, if it isn't the pics, I mean the side moulding on the left doors is a bit bumpy, Get a new SMOOTH one on her. The looks will become perfecto like on the right side.

And bro, I spent over half an hour searching for the screw behind the glove compartment that is meant to remove the AC panel, I couldn't find it anywhere. I guess i'll be taking her to a good mechanic then.

From the file its obvious that our honda city also have it. I have myself experienced because when the vehicle is stationery you can move the steering with slight force but as the speed increases it requires more force and even today I took my car to 140 on M-2 and the steering was quite stable I could control my car with just a finger so I think it was working. As far as AUDI is concerned there are many more things in a steering that can make it optional for example there is a steering rack that has variable ratios with speed i.e when slow car turns 90 degree with a half turn of steering wheel whereas at high speeds it will require a complete turn of steering wheel so there are lot of things in a steering system

Awesome !! Love to see this color shining , your car is looking very beautiful MASHALLAH. Finally some thing red on the thread , this time there was something common between us a common prod used and a common color

sad to see that i'd say dont get a brand new light... go hunt for it in bilal ganj or sumthing similar in ur area. or just go to a few bumper repair guys, they might have on for just 20-30% price of new one. and if its not broken/dirty, its as good as new...

Thank You Verrry Much Ahmad Bhai !! Ur the Most Active & Nice Person of this Forum, Whenever I asked You Any Question U never Neglect it !! Its So nice of You.

OK! I think I should Go to Bilal Ganj for the Light!!

yar you're right... the moulding is slightly bumpy but that is only visible from this particular angle... if u look at it from a perpendicular angle , its not visible. i might change it but u know my issues, i dont like going to Honda 3S sargodha, there is nothing like bilal ganj here and 2nd hand moulding wont be of good quality... so its just okay for now...

and yaaaarr... same here i also searched for the screw but couldnt find it. then went to an audio system guy, he took out some screw in 10 seconds and he said there is some "lock" there too. or may be its just the a/c throw position and temprature adjuster cables. u need to unhook them too... i ll go to the guy again in a few days n will ask him for sure...

Bro thanx for detailed answer on last page...and i feel the steering is a bit hard on stationary position ...first i ll get it wash from the underneath rest i heard from some one if thr is some fault in eps , light of eps switches on during drive ...but on my case it switches on only when it's on ignition rest after starting its went off...i read the link of docu so wanted to know that issue of steering can only be checked from 3s or it can also be checked from mechanic ..as i think mech dnt have any equipment to check the eps...plz guide....

how much psi (pressure) u keep in the tires? keep it at 28psi atleast, or 30psi for better handling but only IF ur tires are not worn out... other then this, i dont think there is much one can do about a not-so-soft EPS... oh, a weak battery might also reduce the power supplied to the EPS so that might also be causing it... as for suspension, when my car had its suspension dead, most of it, the steering was actually lighter!!! after i got all the new equipment, steering got a little bit harder... did u get anything done recently?? and oh, a friend once called me from faislabad and said he has the same issue, he had some suspension jobs done. anyways i couldnt figure out what it was, he went back to mechanic and got some "nut loosened" (yes thats what he told me,not sure if thats right) and steering wheel went lighter... so u better get it checked too,and oh, when u do, as ur mechanic to go underneath ur car, take off the plug that provides current to EPS motor and see if its dirty,if it is, clean it.in my case this was the thing that caused some errors due to low current flow... and yes, the EPS light shud show up for a few seconds before ignition. if it shows up anytime after it, then u ve got a problem...
