Bro what is your mileage now?

I notice when econ on
-it soften throttle response, but still go full power when we floor.
-extend idle-stop.
-reduce the blower speed.
-extend the use of IMA battery eg extent coasting with battery only at slow speed.

I think its good to switch econ on or off every other day so that the whole system is used. Also its good to sometimes start driving with L, then S and shift to D when speed increases to make sure all sensors and pressure gauge inside CVT box optimally used.

hi..
anyone booked in Mid of May. My SA said can get it in September or October...
yours?

It will be different based on which dealer you went to. If Honda Japan recover faster, than probably will get more car coming next month. It also based on how many booking the dealer got before yours.

ok, thx for d info.
so the SA just BS me syaing that the price has increased.
The boot tray memang RM400 la.
Actually, quite dissapointed how they handled my queries on the accessories as the Sales Supervisor seems to be unsure on many things on Insight.

By the way, just to inform you all that the door step garnish is out of stocks and they are not sure on the availability.

Dunno why it is so difficult to get the accessories ... or maybe t hey dont get commission on accessories, that is why such lousy feedback from them.

Honda Malaysia, take note if any of you reaidng this.

No, ur SA definitely get extra commission for ur extra accessories

Hi bro, sorry but to disagree with your statement.
I have tried both Eco mode ON and OFF.

On average, with Econ Mode ON, i can clocked easily 600km and above for 31L tank.
As with Econ Mode OFF, only maximum 500km +-. That equals to approximately RM9.99 difference on the FC for full tank usage.
That is why since then, I've been using Econ Mode ON at all time.

Sorry if the above is not applicable on your Insight, but I am just sharing on the differences.

Make sure it drops down all the way.

If not, u'll have the risk of that screw thrown up into engine components when u going through uneven roads or speedbumps.

Even worst if its thrown toward radiator fan stuck in between fan blade and radiator. It can cut through radiator vents when the fan spin. Ever happened.

Or the screw (metal is it?) thrown and stuck around IMA motor wiring & cabels = short circuit.

You can open the bottom panel by removing 6 screws (metal), 2 plastic screw clip at the rear end and 2 tab clip at the front end. make sure u properly jack-up the car.

The HID make helluva difference in both light throw performance and cosmetic improvement during the night. Make sure you replace the parking lights to SMD5050 type too. Hehe myself saw pedestrians head turn...sometime twice to view the car front end. wub.gif

How is your Hella Supertone doing? Using stock relay no problem? If everything is good, I'll place an order soon too. Man the stock pinn pinnn horn sux big time sweat.gif
