wah @westlife, 7 months you ran for 59xxKM..

mine also 7 months.. 23k km.. hahaha.. my warranty will be over within 3 years then
*
yeah, mine is a bit low as of now (because that time i bought insight i had yet to sell away my previous car, so there was a short period of about 5 mths I got two cars to use concurrently, so it saved my insight's millage a bit).

if not normally my millage per year will be close to 20k (which is normal millage for a car usage also) per year, because once in a while i will drive to Penang during holiday.

normal daily i only traveled probably 6xkm at most.

but i will never purposely avoid driving like some of friends to save my car millage (some of my friends if there is gathering, they will ask me purposely to fetch them despite they had their own cars which I find that this is rather thicked skin of act rolleyes.gif). I will use my car whenever necessary without any hesitation.

hi dude, may i know the location? and the phone number? as this trouble me lot also

it is the cobra connex people who did for me one. not the sc own people.

i dun think they will do it for you for free though.

because i installed the cobra connex in my insight and they are troubleshooting my connex problem therefore they enable for me. tongue.gif

i did remember when i go to honda sc for normal service, the service advisor did ask me if i want to have the peep sounds for the the locking/unlocking doors for dun know how much already

sure, i know it's not free, i dun mind pay for it, and if it also come with auto lock function?
*
i think you can just tell the sc? because the sc ever asked me if i want to do it? i remembered they said abt rm100-1xx if not wrong. (cannot remember the exact amount), but I know they got such service.

auto lock function i doubt so, but the sc got offer to ask me to install that rm300. (but think it engaged outside workshop to do one).

frankly speaking auto lock to me is redundant, because everytime i go in my vehicle, i straightaway lock the door myself, in fact if wait til engine start then it auto lock, it maybe too late if touch wood you were targeted by bad guys way before hand.

and i know some recon to wait for some lights on the meter to turn off before start engine (it will at least take you 30secs or more if you do so).

yesterday i was stuck in the jam for quite long. i was on eco mode and of course will engage to autostop for each stop (my each stop really take quite a while, at least 1 minute), and to one point of time when in the middle of autostop, my car engine started fire up again, but the sound is different this time, the sound had more acceleration power on it, and what's more? the acceleration did not stop, the RPM maintain at more than 1000. i quickly scroll the panel and notice the batt has gone completely EMPTY. yeah so i immediately know that the acceleration was to charge the batt. but am wondering,  what has caused the batt to drain so much during autostop and jam?

another thing is, while my batt was empty, driving with it means the power is back to 1.3. seriously, the car really feels like cant move at all O_O, and i can tell u guys, driving the car without the batt aint fun sad.gif
*
i think most likely ur battery got prob? i haven't encountered such issue at all even i always met heavy jam.

car in service center for 10k service now.

ask about the it is possible to bring own engine oil and the SA say ok but void the warranty on the engine part. then i ask them how about engine oil from honda and he say impossible u can buy it outside...meaning at melaka service center i also cant take my own engine oil except i want to risk on the engine warranty..haiz..

then i ask about the balance of the engine oil, how come no return to me. the SA say insight use 4liter >.< n no more left...maybe later after i get the car i should check the engine oil level n hope they dont overflow it...look like service the car at authorize service center also cant have piece of mind...
*
no left-over? u sure kena tipu already.

i had done three times of the service for my insight, every time i also got the leftover of engine oil back.

Anybody tries honda new fully synthetic for our insight, around rm130 i think
*
i think semi is already considered overkill not to say full. somemore every 5k need to service. really pointless to use full.

i am using semi since i bought the car. so far so good. morning startup car warm up also very fast less tyan 5 mins

yeah...but doing full car insulation is quite expensive...the roof top also very jialat..when heavy rain u can enjoy the orchestra somemore

i think solution is to on the audio system. somehow the audio system is quite good, at least can cover a bit of sound.

U guys might wanna try go fast... As in 160 or more to check for wind sound coming in from the front windscreen... Very noticeable for me but Honda said need to prove or send to pj hq for verifying... Damn stupid...
*
confirmed got wind sound, in fact no need 160km/hr, above 100km/hr already got wind sound.

even sound insulation for insight is lousier than NHC.
i owned both cars so i know.
