QUOTE(watonk @ Apr 11 2011, 10:47 AM) Wanna ask u guys who gone through 5k service. How was it? just did my 5000km servicing just now. There are not many workshops able to service hybrid cars, who else can we trust if not our own Honda workshops? we have no choice. Anyway , at 5000km, they only change the oil filtersI'm a bit skeptical on whether HM technician competent enough to properly maintain Honda Insight. As i remembered, some of earlier Honda City with CVT (2003) was incorrectly maintain, using normal ATF despite CVTF which cause some earlier batch facing premature gearbox problem. So much for an authorized service center for doing that mistakes. This time they are facing a very new tech hybrid vehicle. Anything can go wrong if they didnt conduct proper service and didnt have enough training & experience. Even worst as the car was not assemble by Honda Malaysia so the technical know-how is very limited. Can we trust them? This post has been edited by groovy: Apr 11 2011, 12:40 PM |

QUOTE(monster2020 @ Apr 11 2011, 11:31 AM) I have tried the inside hybrid but seems that the power is lower than the civic hybrid... I never tested the civic hybrid so cant comment on the power.Overall tech the inside is batter but power wise is still civic batter. If not mistaken the civic can run on pure battery for 0kmh - 40kmh after that petrol engine kick in ... But for the inside when move petrol engine already start to run the battery engine is just assisting the petrol engine event when the eco mode is on … But Insight also run on pure battery only. At speed up to 60kmh on flat road. Can see the indicator showing only battery feeding the power. The i-vtec running on close mode. When the engine kicks in, can feel slight kick, felt like normal auto shifting gear. |

Hybrid car, if most of time or 50% on the road use electric motor so mileage can not use as reference to change engine oil & etc.. Can owner hybrid car explain it here... well, in some market the insight comes with a maintenance advisor system in the car, which lets you know when it is due for servicingThis post has been edited by electron: Apr 11 2011, 01:44 PM |

At least for the time being.I'm quite amaze on how some westeners confident level toward Japanese make. Some of them just maintain the car themselves and kept everything recorded in case something major gone wrong. They did mention that this car servicing and maintenance item is just the same like any other normal cars. Some of them even bought the service manual and take things on their own hands. Not to mention how they scan the IMA system and modified the software to boost the power and/or increase mileage (they called it MIMA which obviously means modified IMA) This post has been edited by watonk: Apr 11 2011, 02:52 PM |

QUOTE(kapultek @ Apr 11 2011, 03:45 PM) Yup i feel that too. The 1.8 one.About the brakes, i have the feeling that this car can use rear disk from City E. Maybe few years down the road we can consider that mod. Current setup is excellent in term of grip. Its more on the 'appearance'. |
