Any harmful impact on the engine if the engine oil is over filled by>0.5L? Notice that after sending my car for service at Kah Motor Melaka...

In owners manual, look around service& maintenance, overfiling engine oil can damage the engine. It should be below or ngam at upper level.

the rear wing should be able to fit on current Insight, as body parts remain the same, except of the bumper.

I would recommend Roda BB at Jalan Segambut, since you're around that area. Also they have excellent service.
You can find their address for workshop in the Honda Website

Well the recommendation is for bro noob123, as he wants to claim insurance from the other party, hence price does not matter, and since they are Honda appointed repair centre, they use all original stuff, so it might be abit pricey for those who wants to repair outa your own $.
My experience with them, 1 door paintjob + knockjob = RM600. With warranty.
Pricing would differ if you are claiming for insurance, as they markup the price alot. So I suggest you go there have a quote first tongue.gif
Else any other shop would be cheaper than them .

Black spot as in? Tar marks? If so, some polishing would do the trick.
Else, : Bug n Tar Remover tongue.gif

How do we get underneath it to check, frm ur pic, seems like it was jacked up.

Did you noticed any oil on your house/parked for long time?
If no oil on carpark, then leak also?

Aih, pretty hard to get the SC to fix something, even if it's a well known problem. Everything they need to see with their own eyes/ears/nose...

How come your IMA bat can go below one... traffic JAM...

Finish my 3rd stages n get the trophy at 11.3k k m

The filter is made in Thailand. Not import from Japan. Go home I take photo n upload here.I believe it should be share with there model also.if car manufacturer always make specific part for every model then is hard for them to earn money.

part number for the filter they replace

the filter being take out

but guys...i check the part number online, it seem like for jazz and city one...and the part number is diff compare to web that is 80291-TF0-E01. tio con?


Added on December 28, 2011, 1:50 pmok...fellows, honestly i not very "song" now after know that the replacement cabin air filter is so expensive and not really actual part for insight. so i write this DIY for u all. it really that simple until gal also can do it.

What tools u need: nothing...just you hands and confirm it wont dirty ur hand at all.

Steps:

1. open ur glove box and remove all things inside
2. check on the top part on the glove box, press in both side and glove box will go down.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


3. there is one hook on left bottom that act like a slower when u open ur glove box. just push toward the firewall n the hook will come out
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


4. after the hook come out, it look like this and ur glove box can open until all ur things drop out (if u no remove them at step 1)
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


5. now u see the air con blower behind the glove box
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


6. take out the cover and u will see the filter (my one already remove to snap photo and comparison). pull out ur filter and slot in a new one. make sure the air flow sign is facing down (the sign is on the filter itself).
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


7. put back the filter cover.
8. install back ur glove box to it ori place.
9. lastly only put back the hook.

Here are the comparison on the ori and the newly replace filter
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

The ori one have those small black things.

For those who already change the filter during last service, if u dont mind pls check if this also happen to you. If they return u the old filter inside the new filter packing, pls have a look on the part number. If their standard is using 80292-TG0-Q01 to replace our cabin air filter, then i will recommend others go outside and buy this filter urself and DIY. no point paying RM90 (after discount) for such an easy job

smell it, and that's exactly the same smell when I entered the car..
today, my friend tumpang my car, and complained a weird smell which I used to it..
will change it during 10k service...

btw, got some I idea, instead of putting fragrance in front of air cond.. why not put it between the air filter part? or spray the air filter with fragrance? brows.gif

and what about this "thing"? it is normal to get rusted? so fast? shocking.gif
