Thank You accord7362; really looking forward to discussing matters with you :). Well I bought it for 9.90 lacs and it is driven 42k; On top I have spent 25K on the parts and 40k maintainance from Honda Fort. I am the 2nd owner of the car. Everybody advised me to stay away from steermatic as it is not a market car and has a very slow resale. Even after my purchase people continously tell me that i have made a very expensive purchase; but the truth of the matter is I love the car and thats all that matters

sure SALMAN anytime you are most welcome the same happened to me couple of years ago when i was looking for steermatic but thats all lack of knowledge for those who advice to stay away from steermatic
anyway many congratzzz its a very good deal as 42K A++ vitz is above 10.5L and new swift is around 12L and both these cars are no way near to steermatic

42K drive , dual transmission , 7-speed mode CVT , 1.5L VTEC engine 5 alloy rims c/w bridge-stone potenza ask them to bring these thing in 10L in any car in the market
very wise decision and dont worry about resale just enjoy her
I hope she wont have CNG

Hi All, Can anyone confirm that is there a bulb in the Hazard Light Switch in Steermatic as mine does not lit up? If yes , then any DIY on how to replace it?

I think you are talking about red hazard push button with two small triangles which lit up when you switch on parking or head light I just checked the owner's manual but there is noting especial for that bulb & I dont want to advise some thing which I dont know, hopefully some one come up who experienced to change it.

Yes you are right, I meant exactly that. Triangles do not lit up once I turn the Parking on.. Will be looking forward for support....

Go back to Honda Classic and give them a piece of your mind and ask them to fix the leak. This can be very dangerous so have it done like now.

Changing of fuel filter is tricky in steermatic & most of the time it was done first time by the young mechanics in honda pit shop as its done after 40K & not much steermatic's on road anyway as Sir @incongnito said above just went back to them and complain straight to manager so he will arrange fix it on priority.

I recently got the fuel filter changed from Honda Fort @ Lahore, but it was done well. I did get the petrol smell in the cabin for 3-4 hours but it was obvious. But after that things are normal :).. And yes you should go directly to the place from where you got it replaced and complain to the Manager/Supervisor and have this fixed...Free of Cost obviously

The button does not light up in my car either may be it is like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ghayyour]

There can be so many reasons. Dirty throttle body or air cleaner, bad plugs. When did you have it tuned? What is the mileage?

I regularly take it for the tuning. Plugs, coils and throttle body all were ok last time. Consumption is less than 10KM per litre in the city with AC as I mentioned earlier. Please suggest.

try and keep the RPM's at or below 1500 it does make an impact.

Thanks for the response.. but as per accord ot does lit up..

@accord: can you please reconfirm this. Thanks.

it dose lit up in my case but i think its not a separate bulb but a channel which bring light up to 2 small triangles in the center of red button I will confirm in the night

@ghayyour as per your statement and considering your stree in perfect condition it should not fall below 10km/L , if you are using 100% hi-octane , stop it and mix it with normal fuel it will also effect average
my steermatic is not allowed to give under 10km/l in any circumstances even if I drive it on high RPM's with in city. and as sir @incnigito said driving at low RPM's can do wonders.
10km/L is minimum avg. anyway what procedure you are using to calculate your average?

[kashansaleh]
