Anyone know why Honda Insight Maintenance is higher than other Honda Cars? I remember that during pre-purchase of honda insight, the SA told me the maintenance cost is going to be the same as honda City! And I remember reading in v1 that the cost is to be revise.. but all this never happen rclxub.gif And funny thing is that, while goggling, i never came across any site complaining, is it only Honda Malaysia marking up the cost?

I really wish that Honda will lower the maintenance cost of Honda Insight ...  sad.gif

For all Honda Insight owners... any comments on the servicing offered in Singapore?

hmnn...I remembered my sales agent told me the same thing too about revising the maintenance cost...probably its a scam

The higher the octane, the faster the fuel burns...

So it is normal that RON97/VPR runs lower mileage than RON95 smile.gif

demonxyz: dont worry... i have modded the ICE and the car runs ok biggrin.gif Just ensure the shop have experience on ICE for hybrid cars biggrin.gif

The shop mod for me is at Kg Subang (some where after the old Subang Airport). A chinese installer with experience on ICE for Prius and Insights... If you want the contact, i can PM you.

Best you call him and make appointment.. he only got 1 staff working with him.. so you might need to wait if too many cars.

Insight ice mod is the same as any other car la.... So just take to any reputable ice shop and they can do for you. As long as u don't connect anything or even touch the hybrid battery ur fine. Xenon amps are huge, won't be able to fit under the car seat. With our limited boot space u might wanna rethink especially when the hybrid battery is just below the boot space. For me I don't even wanna take any slight risk. For ice od here is my suggestion: depending on ur budget, if high, get the audison bit one as it comes with speaker level input, or audio control eq, they offer far better than those cikai brand hi lo. Get an efficient amp which is usually small, and ur ready to go. Got chance I post my setup for reference. Happy icing!!!

Oh yaaaa u reminded me of the size issue..
My budget is under 2k for amp + speakers, someone suggested me to take Soundmargus amp, its built-in processor will improve the sound of stock HU. Think I gonna go for testing one day, there are too many choices in the market, kinda confusing... yawn.gif

Hi Bro, I would not use a too old amp (in this case 3 years) as it might started to fail in 1-2 years time... If budget allows, buying a brand new is best but if you short in cash then getting a 1-2 years branded amp will be alright. I am using Helix Dark Blue (2 years amp) from a good friend so far no problem with stock HU. However, you do need to change the front 2 chap-a-lang stock speakers (u will know what i mean after u see the material built for stock speaker) to 6.5" component which my friend offering a good set of DLS component at around RM500~600.
