bros, on the maintenance cost, why the cost shoot up to RM454 for 20k km and RM1k for 40k km?

Anyone can enlighten me on this?

Also, any shop recommendation if I wanna do 3M tint?

Thanks in advance

if not mistaken, 20k has a air filter change
40k has a fuel filter change
and not included in the schedule is a recommended air cond service every 25k

I'm just curious on engine service for hybrid car, petrol/diesel car based on mileage.. 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 servicing

some bodykit installation involves drilling holes in the bodywork
those would potentially void the anti rust warranty

usually for new car, it's is advised not to polish for the first 2-3 months
if wax also use soft wax
this is to allow the paint to properly cure
but i guess the insight would have been at least 2 months old upon delivery, so should be fine

maybe you can paste a note on the back of each headrest saying
"Air cond will shutdown when car is stopped to conserve fuel"
