On service and workshops
Good to see your car is serving you very well. After seeing your tyre replacement post, I've made up my mind to get the Continental UC6 in the same size for my 209,000 Kms run City iDTEC as well, since the MRF Perfinzas on my car are at EOL now and have run 50,000 Kms in 3 years of its usage. Recently, I had my car's driveshafts…
2026-05-27 Activa 125. I have the 110cc from 2015. I have maintained it well and do basic service at a local mechanic. My usage is approx 100 kms a month max. That warrants for half tank of petrol. For your usage I guess, you'll need just more than 1 tank of petrol. It'll be economical even if you compare to a basic Ather EV. EVs are good…
2026-05-13 Completed 200,000 Kms on the odo on my 2014 Honda City iDTEC yesterday. We bought this car in Jul 2017 when the odo was at 35000 Kms and have driven 165,000 Kms in 8 years. Was supposed to complete this feat last year itself, but since I was in USA, the car had barely seen any usage, and at the same time, my folks are preferring…
2025-10-09 Update : The second service was due in last week of September and the same was completed. No complains/ no updates- just plain washing, checking underbody etc was done and took half the day. Just another boring day at service center is what you expect when you get a Honda. The car currently stands at approx the 3000 kms mark and…
2024-11-18 Update: With me being in town, the car has seen some usage and already driven 2000 Kms in almost a month of my arrival from USA. Presently, the odo is at 185k Kms and the car has completed 10 years of its age and will be completing 7 with us next month. Since our another car, Hycross is in ASC due to minor accident, the City is…
2024-06-13 Update 2: First Free Service So, after about 35 days, the first free service for the car was done at HASS on 05/05/2024. The service was booked through Honda Connect App, and also the workshop had called me & booked the same a week back. The car has done about 1111 Kms at the time and there were no such problems to report except…
2024-05-06 Got the car serviced at 156k Kms today at my usual Honda ASC and costed me close to ₹14k and the regular service itself costed me around ₹7k while engine mounts costed me around ₹6.6k. And, also got the engine mounts changed as they were showing signs of age. On the other hand, the car has run 11000 Kms since last service in Dec…

On buying and delivery
I am so happy to read this thread. I am also sailing in the same boat since my City Diesel completed 9 years with just 37000 kms on the Odometer. It is still in showroom condition and I do not have even the slightest thought of selling it. I simply admire the way she behaves on highways on all aspects (Mileage, Reliability, Comf…

On living with it
5000 kms/2nd Service Update: I have done about 3000kms in the last 40 days and the City has put a smile on my file atleast once in 10kms. The ease of overtaking in City traffic at low end and the downshift overtaking at top end on the Highways is the performance that I was expecting from this car. It just flies to 70km/hr in a c…

These are figures Honda City owners published themselves over roughly twenty years, normalised and checked for plausibility, alongside a priced parts catalogue. They are a guide to what others paid — not an audited price list, and not verified invoices. Each figure shows the number of owners behind it so you can weigh it yourself.
