QUOTE(kelvin_hata @ May 7 2011, 11:23 PM) void warranty? There sure are a lot of stuff that we wish to do onto our ride - DRL, boot lamp, HID, reverse sensor, autolock, etc; but the risk of voiding the warranty is too much to bear  QUOTE(icechiller555 @ May 8 2011 @ 12:52 AM) Hey guys, does anyone have this problem? At the back of the car in the boot there is the thing that we pull to cover the boot. Mine keeps making a sound everytime I break even at low speeds. Tried adjusting it but its fits snug. Do you think that I need to get it changed. Car is still brand new I can complain to my honda dealer. Anyone with the same problem? I have no sound from the boot cover upon breaking neither... i believe it's an isolated case, icechiller... luckily it's a new ride, so should be able to be fixed under warranty  |

QUOTE(limbryan @ May 8 2011, 10:33 AM) I asked the service people regarding the auto-lock thing yesterday, he tried to talk with his superior. His superior said recently they did try to use CR-V autolock manual to apply on insight but can't. anyhow, he said they're waiting the autolock manual of insight from Honda. when got it, they will give me a copy of it. I think i will go there again within 2 weeks from now coz need to send my gf insight for 1st service. I will ask them and keep you all inform if any updated. We shall await for the good news from you, limbryan... |

QUOTE(alan8112 @ May 8 2011, 10:44 PM) only D mode, i try S mode also not much different well, u still have L gear unutilised im always load 5 adult 2 child on my previous city & also current insight, that y i have a hyundai starex 2.5 turbo diesel back up starex up genting with full loaded (11 people) rpm only use 2k-3krpm, high torque in low rpm really no car can beat him, 13km/L fuel comsumption  Genting Highland is one of the steepest gradient you can get in Peninsular Malaysia... i think in this route, L gear can come handy?QUOTE(watonk @ May 9 2011, 12:50 AM) Yup. Having those really protect the paintjob around front fender/door and rear bumper. And somehow it makes the Insight rear look less 'hanging'. That's so kewl, watonk!!!! So u bought the modulo kit?Insight with oem thin modulo kit still pretty hanging imhe (in-my-humble-eyes).  [attachmentid=2202851] |

QUOTE(westlife @ May 14 2011, 12:11 PM) of course still must buy what. it is same as losing a finger, even u dun need it u still must complete it even u are not using it. hey westlife, u bought Beta package right? i wanna know more about the foot lighting... is it something that you can switch on/off or is it on all the time as long as your engine is on? and it's installed just at the driver & co-driver side is it? none at the rear passenger foot?i cannot stand if there is any flaws in my car. or alternatively next time put the acxd or ixchy pxwder on it. when the thief try to steal it. hehehe.  Added on May 14, 2011, 6:37 pm QUOTE(MenOnInsight @ May 14 2011, 06:27 PM) I coverted mine projected lamp to HID since second day i received my car. 4300k as shop told me JPJ compline. But i notice one is more yellowish. So better check it carefully bro, gotta do some wiring to install HID right?any wire cutting involved? wanna do some mod to the car but very concerned it gonna spoil the warranty... especially since hybrid is still relatively new in the country... will really suffer if warranty get void This post has been edited by rajamohdrafy: May 14 2011, 06:37 PM |

QUOTE(psyeo @ May 10 2011, 12:11 PM) Just wondering, which brand of Ron95 perform the best for Insight? I have never tried anything else other than shell..I heard from other thread that shell Ron95 not performing as well as other brands'? after reading this thread, out of curiosity, i tried fueling up with PETRONAS Primax95 Xtra.After fueling, the meter showed the car could last up to 900 km... hmmm, seemed like can go a bit further than Shell / Caltex. quite handy since heard in news that Ron95 may get to RM2.10/litre next month Added on May 24, 2011, 11:02 pm QUOTE(MenOnInsight @ May 14 2011, 09:03 PM) No cutting involed, just plug to circuit, if don't want easily remove and replace back H11 MenOnInsight, sorry, this is my 1st time considering HID...u just change the bulb, or install new wiring too? Added on May 24, 2011, 11:07 pm QUOTE(westlife @ May 15 2011, 11:05 AM) no idea, next fri then send for fixing the beta package. by then then will know. am interested in the foot light, but almost no information / description on what the light does, when'd it switch on, etc... pls keep us updated when u have installed yeah but i dun think got on the off switch. i would think it is more like when open door then will have light, no need engine on i think. just thinking only. next week install already will know. nobody else here install beta package at all?   if quite interesting, then, there might be "follower"... heheAdded on May 24, 2011, 11:13 pm QUOTE(mardzi @ May 15 2011, 04:58 PM) walaweh.. not fair leh steadypana. i never got leaf from you before... oh, thanks for enlightening me, mardzi... i am a fan of blue lights Added on May 15, 2011, 5:11 pm the beta package lighting are link together with your front light. if you start the car or open the door nothing will happen unless you switch on the front light. the bad site of the lighting is on the passenger and driver side is a bit dim compare to the middle lighting. Problem is there is a light socket intact to our dashboard and when they put the light at the socket, i feel the height and the angle is somehow something wrong. Too high position and did not light the floor but more inside the dashboard. anyway different people have different idea about it. mine, i am not satisfied with the OEM beta lighting.. seemed like the foot light just perfect for me... but yeah, i want them to light up the foot, not the dashboard...This post has been edited by rajamohdrafy: May 24 2011, 11:13 PM |

QUOTE(is2rck @ May 16 2011, 08:10 AM) Total damage was RM1800 Brand: Michelin Primacy LC. The feeling for this tyre is total comfort and quiet though. Felt much much better than my stocked. o my, goodbye Made In Japan tyres...Besides they say I hit something on the road, the other reason they said was someone cutted my tyre. And they don't even keep stock on the tyres and need to book. I can't drive the temp. tyre on the raod, it's just too ugly and dangerous if another Dunlop tyre crack the hell out of me. |
