Hi

 

Need help

There is this roaring sound from engine compartment when car move off from stationary sounded very rough and happens about 2000rpm onwards.

When driving on highway which rpm is normally above 2000 there is no significant sound but feels a bit of drag when below 40km/hr.

Abit like modified /leaking exhaust sound but my car is stock. Engine is smooth when accelerate at neutral, exhaust checked and not leaking.

 

This roaring sound will sometimes disappear and it will be smooth like baby but most of time it is around.

Let's say a single trip has 10 traffic lights and I have to pick up from stop 10 times, 7 of the times will have this rough sound and 3 will be smooth.

Tried going to mechanic three times but every time the sound does not appear .

 

Tried to accelerate When in neutral and is no sound thus engine should be fine and exhaust not leaking.

Try JB, change my previous ride CRV 4 absorbers cost rm 1300

if you are concerned you should go back to KM to ask them to check for you. your ride is still under warranty. i suggest you go back to KM rather than seeking answers here.

Hi all, i am looking for your opinion. In recent regular maintenance, my engineer suggested me to  change the front absorber and engine mounting which cost about 1.5K inlcuding labor. I can feel the problem while driving and it is getting a little worse in the past 6 months. Howver, I am not sure whether I shall chang them now since the car is due in 3 years and I probably will change another car. what would you do if in my situation?  thanks.

Hi all, I am thinking of changing my Honda Stream center armrest, but I can't seems to pry open from the side cover of the armrest.

 

Anyone have tried it before? Strange that in all Youtube videos, there are non video showing Honda Stream center armrest removal.


does anyone knows if it is advisable to shift from D to S mode while driving? Any impact on the gearbox if this is done while driving?

 

It is able to do it, I have tried it a few times when I went for Msia trip, just to overtake vehicles for 2 lanes road. But somehow I felt that abit useless doing the S mode since it only give an additional boost up to 80km/h at an instant and stall there.

Youtube almost no vidoe about honda stream repairs or DIY videos. if you can find its very rare.

can i safely say when driving i can down shift to S mode while car is still moving? Why stall at 80km/hr? you didnt use the paddle shift?

Jap S mode is BS. It simply holds in lower gears and that's it.

 

Conti gives you amplified  throttle respond and of course combination with the lower gearing.

Hi, my stream’s (rsz 2010) single headlight needs replacement. I found out that the bulb is a 35W d2r hid white light. I got a quote from a shop st amk auto point for $180 for just 1 bulb. Is this reasonable?

Wow $180 for 1 bulb! Do google ebay and you will see only USD10-20/pc (some even with free shipping).

Even if you express ship them still can buy 3 to 4 pcs!

Very easy to DIY change yourself.

Basically just remove and replace.

iridium is usually the performance series and won't be able to last 100k. for instance, the Denso IK20L i have been using was in quite a bad state after 40k of usage.

Iridium plugs are supposed to last on average to 80k km. Do you mean to say your plugs keep fouling when u say they are in a bad state? You may need to get yr ws to check on yr air/fuel ratio to see if it is too lean or too rich.
