they couldnt find the problem yet.. i will upload the video later on cos the file is too large.. 4xx MB..
i will go SC there on tuesday again to diagnose the problem.. hopefully will be ok..

Black insight reporting in! Yeah!

what is the wiper cover refill??? the cap of nuts on wiper always get stolen one or what?

It is Wiper Rubber Refill, and I think they are referring to changing the rubber part of the windscreen wiper blade.

ic. that's good for those models applicable, at least 30% discount now. but i had driven NHC previously for 1 yrs 4 mths still no need to change that. think can last quite long.

New owner reporting in..still lot to learn..

Welcome on board. Welcome to share...

Tq bro..hope share the experience..

wow, year end car must have a lot of discount

Welcome bro. I am new as well but these veterans here got so much valuable info that you need to read the post from day 1. Should thank them for the great effort. You will learn a lot. Have fun reading

Btw, I test drove the lexus cth before buying the insight. For a marquee name, it was a lot of money to spend on such a compqct car so test drove the insight which is half the price of cth but comparable in size. found that minus off the leather n expensive stuff, the insight is much better value for money and a better ride, to me. And the sc is like 5 minutes away from the house.

Sometimes still wishing to be driving a lex for the looks but common sense say brains is better than just good looks. So, enjoy your ride and if have money, get yoursel a mugen kit and you will soon forget about anything else. This car can be cool too.

Welcome

Just got a stand still race with a Altis 2.0 Dual VVTI CVT....

Insight can keep up with Altis up to 140km/h then small 1.3 engine start to get out of breath...

Conclusion... the torque is AWESOME!!!

with ECO mode turned off and gearbox switched to "S"?
I've noticed when i floor down the pedal, I don't feel the much difference in terms of acceleration besides the noisy engine sound
so, usually I will just step half on the pedal

Welcome Bro !

Power source = Accessories plug / cigarette lighter area

hi all Insight owners.
Mind to share how much percent fuel saving that you earned prior changing to insight? i was wondering as for now it is worth for me to spent more budget on buying Insight or just go for normal compact car which have low fuel consumption like Vios/City/Forte. My silly doubt cross my mind were;
- battery cost when its flat said ~RM7K, will i save my fuel more than this value prior battery exchange?
- additional ~+-RM10K compare to Vios/City/Forte (will i gained back my pocket money from this hybrid car as stated it have lower FC?)

Pls enlighten my silly doubt, thx

Any guide how to change the headlight bulb? I can't google nor youtube it....

@loonsave

just pm you. Or if anyone need the information to remove the headlight bulb? small bulb ? plate light bulb ?

Here is your answer...

1: a typical vios/city will get you 14km/l average fuel consumption an Insight will get you 19-25km/l (19 Econ off / 22-25km/l ECON on)

2. Battery do not cost RM7K it cost RM5K at the moment all Insight have 5 years Warranty on Battery but the replacement have only 6 months (consumer need to fight the replacement battery 6 month warranty lifespan) but google around and you will notice Insight battery is actually NIMH D-Cell type battery in serial layout. in US the previous generation of insight have their battery replace by 3rd party and it only cost RM1500 to RM2000 provided the 3 IMA circuit board is in good condition (so just replacement of wear/faulty batteries is RM1,500 t0 RM2,000) they even replace with a better stronger maH battery which provide longer distance per charge

3. With insight you get 100% rebate on Import TAX and Duties and this is the actual cost what the manufacturer build that worth... with other car (non hybrid) you pay RM50K in TAX so what you get is RM50K cheaper car build value...

4. you pay 10K and you get Traction Control (a active safety that really really can save your life.... well if your life is worth extra 10K) and you also get Automatic headlight / automatic wipers, 2 tear dashboard meter that only found in civic, 3D display upper tiered panel display.....

for me the VSA/Traction control is worth extra 10K

Thx Calvin_ng and this piece of info somehow give me more confident to go for hybrid car. but one more thing forte come along with quite good safety features too and cheap as compare to others C segmen car. Do you think Insight still more value to our pocket money as compare to forte? (FYI, before survey Insight, i do consider forte as its cheap with safety feature offered) pls advise
