It does come in all vehicle that has "Auto Stop" feature, even the CR-Z and Prius.

It's actually work when you are complete stopped and it take about a second to activate it. So far ok even on a very steep road like Kek Lok Si which I tested last 2 weeks when I visited Penang.

Try to press harder on brake before release. The amount of braking affect creep aid force.
Yes it have creep aid system but it kinda to quick and need the drive to immediately step on gas after release brake pedal.

Yes, I do feel the creep aid system is not really working well. It slope a few inches before moving forward and it make me panic and the car behind u as well.

i do have problem with this sometimes.
during auto stop on uphill condition, once I released the brake, the car will roll back for 1sec, make me sweat for nothing. that is why now i will pull hand brake at the same time pressing on the brake. just in case

Hi all Insight owners.. I'm thinking to purchase Insight.
If everything okay will go and make booking tomorrow..

Got few question:
1) what's the waiting period if book now. I went to 3 diff honda dealers and all 3 giving me diff and :-S
2)The normal insight  (without the bodykit) looks so-so.. How much will it cost me to install some bodykit. Sorry I'm totally noob abt cars. Dont want to modify "gila-gila".. Just to make the car look more attractive.
3)I read in one of the threads here (cannot remember if it's V1 or V2 that's you can protect your car from scratches. Anyone know what the product is called?
4)anything else i should know before booking.. Please do let me know. I'm buying car first time. Dont want to get tipu

sorry if this question has been asked b4, in order to install the footlight, do we need to remove the lower part of dashboard during the installation?

As for the side door step garnish, will the Honda centre install/stick for FOC?
I was told that the Honda centre will charge RM80 for labour fee...just to fix the doorstep garnish!

No such thing as FOC, however, Honda SC will charge cut throat price. When I asked to install sound for door lock/unlock by remote, they want to charge RM480. mad.gif
