Can we install a OEM Honda keyless entry in the IDSI City? The one Honda was offering for 15k ?

May be. Yes may be because its only Pakistan that we are getting naked cars without the basic accessories like immobilizer, key less entry and SRS.
New city has the key less entry module installed. All you need is a key with remote, like the OEM vti oriel key, and program it. Its a 5 step easy process.

Not sure about idsi though, but something in my mind does click that it might be having the module as well.

P.S honda was offering for 15k? when?

Bro are you 100% sure New city has the key less entry module installed?

As of the knowledge I got from a very reliable source, yes I am sure. He told me that there is no difference between any electronics in honda city aspire. They have added mirror indicator, alloys and Satnav.
Moreover, the key with aspire is ditto same as the 8th gen oriel key if you are familiar with it and so is the answer back function.

I have 2012 city and an oriel as well to check but I have already installed steelmate system. So, if I come across a non aspire city of an acquaintance, I'll definitely give it a shot.

The oriel key is for 6.5k from 3S shops, I am copy pasting the procedure used for civic, I was told that its the same for city as well.

Sorry Honda fans,

But i didnt enjoy driving the vario too.

I took my frineds car for spin, and brought it home to show it to my family, (yes the size and the color made me drool) But the drive is very tiring. Seats are very hard,

CVT's usualy accelerate slower then A/T and M/T's thats not issue, The car drove fantasticaly, i didnt feel a gear change at all (the RPM was constant too (from zero to 80 atleast). I had to lift my foot for the RPM to come down.

I did drive it slow, Harsh in every manner i could, It was simply good to drive,

Parked it at my home to inspect it, The car had lacqar all over it, (yes i have a khujli for genuine paints shine) Laquar simply cant have it.)

The when i planned to take the car back, i tried the N to D and N to R trick, and their was a minute trr on N to D, Which i guess people say is the sound so alert that somethings wrong.

Their was buring smell when i parked the car in my garage (probably becuase a skreech braked to check brakes).

and after parking, Their was quite too much phus... shurr... from the engine room as if somethings boiling. (is it normal) ?

So im back to looking cars again, Since i dont wana buy a car and then cry specialy when im buying from a friend. It can be problematic in the future.

[fawadakbarkhan]

hmmmm, Lets see:

the drive is very tiring. Seats are very hard

Well, I think thats always one's personal preference, assuming you drive a corolla usually, so yes definitely, the city has a hard drive.
On a side notice, were the tyres ok? Tyre pressure?

CVT's usualy accelerate slower then A/T and M/T's thats not issue, The car drove fantasticaly, i didnt feel a gear change at all (the RPM was constant too (from zero to 80 atleast). I had to lift my foot for the RPM to come down.

The cvt isn't the same as AT tranny. And NO, cvt actually accelerates faster, its the L12a2 thats a bit sluggish in response.
Plus, you aren't supposed to "feel" anything at all in a CVT car.

Parked it at my home to inspect it, The car had lacqar all over it, (yes i have a khujli for genuine paints shine) Laquar simply cant have it.)

Assuming you mean lacquer, well the shine is no issue. If you ask me, its just a matter of 2 hours to restore dead paint to its genuine shine.

The car is having some serious issues, I doubt it to be a perfect piece. The maintenance hasn't been carried out probably. Transmission needs some work and phus phus phurr phurr could mean anything literally, no idea about that.

My dears, Aspire has immobilizer installed while non-aspire city does not. & hence genuine keyless cant be installed in it. I know Its a very very very bitter fact, but unfortunately that's how it is ..... mera dil bhi toot gya tha ye jaan ke....

Immobilizer? BIG NO bhai. You are mistaken.

BTW, source of your info?

Keyless has nothing to do with the imbolizer being there or not, an audio add on and a keyless add was avalible for City before Aspire was launched.

Altho keyless entry add-on was introduced for Civic VTI earlier.

a) Sincerly, I hate Corolla too mostly because of the huge size, my Vitz has spoiled me

b) The tires on the car wernt more then 50%

c) I tried a Mira CVT vs Mira A/T and i felt the same, same goes with Passo and Vitz (1krfe) Passo doesnt has DBW and CVT.

d) Once the lacquar is there, Genuine paint is covered by it, All you can do is clean the laquar, which with time becomes yellowish.

e) The car is Honda maintained, But yes your right might not be the best, Since its a friends car maybe its perfect, But if the car turns out wrong il be saying bad things to the friend so its better be safe then sorry.

f) Im not sure if id find a under 60k driven decent Honda City manual in my range (8.25-8.50) But lets see or else id have to keep looking.

Salam
Yaar im going to test drive and check a honda city 02 exi tomorrow(sunday) i quickly want to know what to look for as the car is showered except the roof , where should i look for any signs of major accidents and what other things to look at while buying it . please let me know as soon as possible thanks

[vaux]

Immobilizer? BIG NO bhai. You are mistaken.

BTW, source of your info?

At the time deciding either to go for aspire or not, i asked this honda gateway guy and thats what replied with. So that means Aspire has no Immobilizer as well??????

if it doesnt, then there should be a way out for sure...im a big time fan of genuine keyless too....

[vaux]

I wish to find out a way to get a keyless installed in my car too bro...hope someone comes in with the solution for city...

When its come to CVT I never attracted to vario & dont know regarding mira , reema , passooo , bobluoo & muneee , available choices regarding the combination of Engine & CVT transmission in Pakistan ,I found Steermatic with L15A engine good choice

Did you try any steermatic ? otherwise manual city is good I think

sir G steemratic to phr BOLLYWOOD ki katrina hoi na

[chinyoti]

@ accord. Haha mira reema., no havnt tried a steermatic, since vario nd steermatic are taboos i shud giv it a try thou, manual city's are atleast 50k higher priced then vario ones. Altho im still looking lets see

[waleed80]

Nopes. Aspire doesnt have Immobilizer at all. its just keyless entry

[vague_one]

Oh... Good. awesome in fact. I met kaptaan sb after you had a Salim interchange meet with him, so he told me stuff about your car.

You better finish the work off till we have GTG in january cz no one's gonna accept any excuse by then. All we'll want is a (H) aunda city to look at.

And monster spool, OoOoO, can't wait. :Off goes robm to look at the next lahore visit plan:

Yar, awaih na apnay hopes high kar lena, its still just a daily runner, makes the school run, my office run, DC runs an all....will def def try to finish by Jan, an kaptan sahab da wi muh band nai renda.... This time make sure yer ride is there as well....bara muqabla husan hoga iss bar.

Do you want to Exchange it with Civic 2011 Oriel Manual?

[KLINCH]

hello guys...
i have idsi with over 100k on odo. does any1 of you ever expeience a choke CAT?
is it feasible to just clean the CAT n reinstall it?. 2003-2008 model.

[aakbar]

i drove my iDSI - 2005 for 165k (entirely on petrol - no CNG) on the Odo before I sold it in Jan 2012. But I didn't have had any CAT related issue in that car. So i guess it all depends on the type of fuel you use.
As for cleaning, I doubt you can get it cleaned properly. I guess you can consult Honda ppl b4 making any move, but I feel you have to replace the device altogether. Lets wait for some expert opinion from Pakwheelers on this.
