who say insight cant walk alone with battery?? lol biggrin.gif

I can achieve this 'run on battery alone' easily especially during Auto Cruise on hi-way, even on high speed.

As during slow acceleration, u have to be really light foot to run on battery only.

Guys, remember that Insight free service comes with semi syn oil...
[attachmentid=2278666]
Coz some honda technician/mech still thought that all free service have to use
*
Yes, but only for 5k and 10k service right?

For 1st 1k service, no engine oil change, just inspection.
Am I right?

I will b going for 10k service next week.

Thats why i dont like to use the ECO. Feels good without the ECO although it will consume more fuel biggrin.gif
*
haha. dunno why, somehow i feel guilty whenever i turn off the Econ Mode.
My heart saying, why waste petrol when u can save it ... and why harm the environment by burning more fuel.
haha.

when i told my wife how i feel, she said to me ... 'you crazy ah?'

want to ask: for our car it won't be the situation that the car will run on battery ONLY rite? even at very very slow speed? (i am referring to the case when car IS NOT stop and IS MOVING)


*
not so clear, but i was cruising 90km/h and using battery alone ...about 10seconds.

haha.. sound so wrong huh..  laugh.gif bang and hard knock during at nite on the front seat before warranty is up..? OMG..  tongue.gif

no harm trying. drool.gif

anyway, my Insight just reached 3rd stage.
Since then, I've noticed that even with 'soft' acceleration, the meter will show dark blue color. Same thing happened when I use Auto Cruise at 110km/h, when going uphill, the meter color will show dark blue longer than before. Somehow my FC getting higher. My recent tank,only can go up to 610km, compared to 650km before. Anyone facing such issue? Just wondering whether it is normal

anyone know the number registration process? i want to book my number.

the SA seem not really want to help on this. i told him the number is running out soon but he still hengeh2 say wait the car come first because he say lately the booking number can only last for 1 month. in case the number not being register, then need to buy it again.

but my friend just go buy her number yesterday. then according to her, the number can be extend 1 month foc and coming month with RM10 fees.

so which one is true?
*
mine was quite fast and simple.
The SA sms all the available numbers with 8 and 2 to me. It depends what number and digit.
I dont think you can get it for free unless it is very unwanted numbers such as 4967, 1424, 4794.
That time the queue was WVD, once I have choosen the numbers, it took him 4days to revert with registration and all.

Paid RM400 when I collect the car.

I reached my 3rd stage like 2 days ago ---> light acceleration - it turns blue! I am thinking to myself if this is because of my petrol! I pumped Esso Ron 95 for this tank.
*
So we are on the same boat.
Reached 3rd stage and the acceleration easily turn dark blue.
I notice not only on the acceleration from 0km/h, even on auto cruise on the uphill, the dark blue seem to last very long with hard acceleration... as compare during 2nd leave stage.

Dont know what is the reason behind, lazy to call SA as I dont think he can answer me.

Any bros know why or face the same thing?

from what i observe using the ECO guide screen. green to light blue will not affect your leaves, only dark blue will (when you accelerate or brake too hard into the inefficient box on the eco guide). I don't think it is necessary to maintain green all the time, accelerate on light blue is ok as well. My current favorite screen during acceleration = "ECO guide" screen, cruising=instant FC screen
*
usually when I spotted the dark blue color, i will quickly release from the accelerate pedal, or cancel the auto cruise when I am auto cruising ... that's how i minimize the aggresive acceleration.

my favourite screen is FC Screen brows.gif
my favourite screen used to be the 1st screen, showing the petrol and battery arrow sign.

Hi, oem paint meaning colid white or exact color code according to our original paint?
Mine is pearl white ... would you be able to paint the same color?

no no i am not referring to the aircon blower. i know the blower will continue to blow during auto-stop while aircon is off.

when i am auto-stop, brake never release, the engine auto turn on by itself after a while temperature drops.
*
yes, it is written in the manual.
during auto off, the compressor will be shut down, but blower & engine will function as usual.
but if the compressor temperture is too low, the auto off function will not kick in or the stop period will be minimized
