Hi Vezel brothers!

 

Had the car since December, so about 6 months now. Very happy!

 

Wanted to ask you guys if you know how to turn off the car without turning off the Head Unit? I still haven't figured out how. So like say you're waiting for someone in the carpark, how to turn off the engine (to wait) but still leave the music on?

 

The reason i'm asking is that i mainly listen to music from my DVD filled with MP3s. Everytime I turn off and on the car (and head unit), the stupid Head Unit takes about 2.5 minutes to "format read" the whole DVD before it can start playing music.

 

Speaking of which, mine is the most basic Pioneer AVH-165DVD player. Not sure if you guys also encounter this very long "format read" time duration also?

 

I wondered if the "format read" time will be reduced if I use USB input. however for whatever reason, the USB input can't seem to work (nothing happens when i connect the USB drive to the cable inside the glove compartment) so didn't get to test this out.

 

Next, i wonder if you guys found any way to get rid of the irritating "auto brake" thing. even when i turn it off, randomly it'll activate - sometimes it's a carpark barrier, but sometimes it's really just no visible obstacle, e.g. waiting to turn right at the traffic light.

 

Lastly, wanna share with you about the engine oil. Before my 5000km servicing and oil change, i was using whichever oil that came originally with the vezel. Each tank could get around 550km. But the SPARK centre changed to W40 oil (which they claimed is "good for hondas") and after that the fuel consumption dropped to 470km. Damn pissed off. Went to buy the recommended OW20 and to SPARK's credit they changed for free. Now going to monitor the new FC.

No issue with my HU. Did not take as long.

Min grade api sm.

common oil weight would be w40. w30 or w20 can also be used for better fuel economy.

relative to FC based on w40, in % terms, what improvement would w30 yield? approximately?

Bro, one of the bro here ever mentioned a trick here and it worked fine for me.

 

* Upon stopping yr car, switch to 'N' gear

* Then push engine start/stop to off engine without stepping on the brake

* Engine will then cut off but yr power supply will remain on

* A warning on dash board will alert u to push gear to 'P'

* Just push the gear back to 'P' accordingly

 

Hope this helps.

I remember reading earlier about pressing the Engine start stop twice or something?
