[WTA] New Civic issue (VSA?)

daydreaming — Fri, 05 Apr 2013 22:04:42 +0800

Hi all,

I'm not sure if this should be posted here. Mod, feel free to move/delete this if its inappropriate. It is about my brand new car, which only lasted less than 10 minutes before it stopped moving due to some unknown issues (VSA / power steering).

Here's the long story:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

I recently bought a new 2013 Honda Civic 2.0s (the one without GPS) from Honda Setia Alam. Honda Malaysia said that I took the car on 29 March. But in actual fact, I only took the car on Apr 3rd (Wednesday). I only signed the 'checklist' and other docs for the car handover on Wednesday 3.30pm - 4pm.

I drove the car out from the sales office at around 4.10pm. It was okay at first. Was driving very slowly (since new car mah) then I tried the ECON mode...nothing special so i turned it off again. Upon reaching the second traffic light, everything was OK still. After that (i was still on D gear), i could not accelerate. The LCD display showed VSA something, and Please check your power steering.

I could only reach 10km/h (max) even if I floored the pedal. I tried lifting my feet off the pedal, the car stopped immediately.

So i took a u-turn to go back to my house (luckily the car behind me did not speed and did not bang me from behind). called Honda sales guy, and he told me to check fuel, handbrake etc (all was okay). So he told me to on and off engine. Same thing. So I continued to drive back to my home which is 1 min away.

Then i called the sales guy again. He told me to drive back to Honda SC but I refused. I told them to come to my house. So the sales guy and a mechanic came.

They got no clue. Cannot move the car. Cannot reverse. The brake locked the car. So they had to call a tow truck to bring my car to Honda SC.

of course, I was not pleased at all. I called Honda Malaysia several times...even escalated to 2nd level. All they could say is , they are going to close the case because the issue has been resolved.

So I asked again, do they know what is the root cause? they don't know. they only suspect it was due to some unknown particles interfering with the sensor, which caused the whole car to stop. So they serviced that part and reset something in the software, and they assumed it'll be fine. However, they could not reproduce the issue since the tow truck brought the car to the SC.

I asked them again, if they cannot identify the cause, how can they say they have fixed it? They said thats the best they could do and told me to test on their behalf. They tested 2 days and it's OKAY. I said, the car was with Honda long before I took the key, but the testing was okay (or maybe no testing at all). But i only drove less than 10 minutes and encountered the issue. What makes them think the car will be safe to drive? They could not answer me.

The summary:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

So guys, i know I'm very very unfortunate. But I am seriously not sure what should I do. the car is still in Honda SC. I don't think I should take it until I am very sure I have no other choice.

My family is obviously worried since I drive on the highway everyday. What if the car stops all of a sudden while driving?

Some people suggested to go Honda Japan, some consumer board, some Facebook, some newspaper.

But I'm just wondering, has anyone of you here encounter the same issue with Honda Civic before?

I used to be a loyal Honda supporter. But now, i don't even have confidence to drive the new car.

Tools for digital painting n graphic design

daydreaming — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 12:44:36 +0800

hi guys, saw someone posted a thread on code editor so just trying my luck here with a somewhat similar topic.

i'm planning to get macbook pro soon (yea, very soon, like this week or next). but i have some concerns as to what kind of tools are available for graphic design and digital painting. I draw simple comics as a hobby by the way.

Currently i'm using GIMP but from what I've read, there are some issues with GIMP for MAC because of the active window thing. GIMP's toolbox is a separate window from the main canvas. This problem can be fixed and if I can't find any alternatives, I will definitely google for the solution and fix it.

Just wondering if there's any other useful tools out there?

Photoshop is good but it's way too costly for a hobbyist like me.

Any help/advice/suggestion will be really helpful. Thanks

p/s.... i might not go for the IPS panel because it's quite costly still. maybe will just get the LED TN-panel hopefully the colors will still be quite good to match the future MBP 13"

If anyone knows anything bout this, do provide me with some info. Much appreciated.
