Hi guys,

can anyone tell me whether is this a fault or have this by nature. If i release my accerlarator while travelling ard 90kmh, i can hear "whizzing" sound, even with my radio turned ON.

I consulted the HONDA technician on this, and they told me because CITY is using CVT, thats why have this sound.

Dont sound logical to me. My friend have a CITY dont have this prob.

anyone got this prob?

Should not have the whizzing sound that you have described. CVT does not have such a characteristic.

Can you elaborate more about this 'whizzing' sound? Is yours a vtec, manual or auto?

Have you try switching off the stero to see if the whizzing sound still persists? Sometimes it is due to the wiring problem when they install the stero player.
