Honda Malaysia recommends service intervals every 10,000km or 6 months, whichever comes first. This schedule accommodates Malaysia's tropical climate and varied driving conditions.
Major services occur every 20,000km, including more comprehensive checks and component replacements. These ensure optimal performance and early detection of potential issues.

Service costs vary by model complexity and engine size. Honda City and City Hatchback generally have the lowest maintenance costs, while CR-V and Civic require higher investments.
Hybrid models like City e:HEV have additional components but benefit from extended service intervals on certain items due to reduced engine usage.
All costs include genuine Honda parts and authorized service center labor charges. Using non-genuine parts may void warranty.

| Honda City | RM180-220 | RM450-550 | RM800-1,000 |

Monitor air conditioning performance closely in Malaysia's climate. Clean cabin filters more frequently if you drive in dusty areas or experience reduced cooling.
Check tire pressure monthly as heat affects tire inflation. Properly inflated tires improve fuel efficiency and safety.
Inspect brake pads more frequently if you drive in stop-go traffic common in Malaysian cities. Urban driving increases brake wear.
Use genuine Honda fluids and parts to maintain warranty coverage and ensure compatibility with your vehicle's systems.
Book your Honda maintenance service with trusted authorized service centers.
