Hi, I'm still considering of getting an I2 but I am worry about how the IMA battery is going to react under the hot sun in this country. From what I've read from I2 owners in other country, the IMA battery will discharge by itself under hot weather and this will cause loss of power because the electric motor will not be able to assist. This also will greatly shorten the lifespan of the battery. This happened alot in the Civic Hybrid and the the IMA system used in the CIVIC is the same as in the one in I2.

Do any of the Malaysian I2 owner face problem with the IMA battery especially when parked under the hot sun for long period of time?

The price is include installation, paint, led. 

I don't know the price yet.

Nothing to do with alignment I think. 

The grinding noise only can be heard when radio is off and when you accellerate, not loud but if you pay attention it can be heard. 

Apart from this everything else is perfectly fine.

No la, tyre was another issue because my ride was really harsh, nothing to do with the grinding noise.

Actually the metal knocking/grinding noise can be heard when i start the engine in the morning, I think this is the same noise I hear when accelerating, the noise will go off when I let go the pedal.  I hope this is normal but need more insight owners to test their cars to find out.

By the way, FC for second tank is 710km, just pumped RM64.00 petrol.  90% city 10% highway.

Any speed as long as you press the accelerator pedal the noise will come on, and it will go off when let go the pedal. 

I hope it is not CVT or any big problem because the noise is not really audible unless you pay full attention to it.

I don't think I can get 19.5 km/l too for the whole tank. Unless 80% highway.
But i think if you reset the trip meter for every trip, you should be able to get more than 19.5km/l for your highway travel.

Indeed it is super good... how do you get that? downhill all the way?

I've done my first service, I was told that the first service is just inspection, just normal inspection. I asked whether got check alignment or balancing because recently I hit a pothole, he said need to add money  .

He also recommend me pedal lock (locktech) and autolock (lock when brake is press only), damage is RM580 (Locktech) + RM220 (Autolock) = RM800. Both also need wiring, as he told me this is done by Honda and warranty is 1 year.

He also advice me to fold the side mirror whenever possible when parking, make it a practice, he say the side mirror easy to spoilt and sensitive, not sure how true is it but no harm to fold it whenever possible.

Service at 3S Honda USJ.

MSIG.  Free road side assistance 24/7

Anyone tried the new Petronas Primax 95 Xtra on their Insight?

Ct200h

Eltaria. He PM me and said if I sell 80K he may consider LOL

damn obvious man....luckily no one take it and hunt for insights..

mind share the link? i want to get one, not white one but blue one that matches my insight!! 

i feel my blue insight is special on the road, becos now u can see white insight, but u dun see other color like black, blue or silver. 

Bro, how to check the battery is full of charged? Any indicator?

thanks bro! Ecotint is a good brand - my old car before I "marry new wife" IN2 also used Ecotint. Had that car for 5 yrs w/no tinting discolorations/other issues.

don't know about the front deflector thing - will go check it out tmrw.

I guess the mudflaps will affect the drag co-efficiency of the car. Have to give this a skip 

But I really want this missing front air spoiler
