@Remedy
Please kindly read our Honda Insight Owner Manual. 1000KM drive normal. After 1st service can start Rev Up to your liking.

Going to change my tyres to Continental CC5, RM248 each.

The stock bridgestone turanza ER370 has just clocked 19000kms and still got plenty of threads life left, anyone interested?

It is OK going up genting... new car with nano coating can take it... the engine is already pre-run during production thats why Honda did not change oil during 1st 1000KM... hahaha drive like normal car will do... no special care needed...

Nothing beats hand washing/waxing with nice chamois towels with your own hands biggrin.gif
No spider web scratches... mostly biggrin.gif

Will get Permanon once the wax gone

Hi, I'm had an accident on 24/1/2011 at PLUS highway. I do claim insurance because 1 sport rim broken and 2 tyres out. I left my tyre at Ipoh and I need that tyre to do claim. Very difficult to get Dunlop 185/55/16. Anybody already change ur tyre to other size, please sell/give me that tyre.

again, what did you do to that part to prevent the sound?



BTW, has anyone tried compared the FC for both the ECON ON and ECON OFF? what's the difference in FC?

and with ECON ON, what's does it really do to save FC? Supposely lower A/C, slower speeds, more Autostop, but what are the Honda's claims / percentages?

why are the skirts in white? Didn't Honda ready it for you when you collect the car? Or did you just ordered them?

Just tried to cover that gap with tape and the wind sound gone. Now going to find some kind of rubber lining or flaps to cover it.

FC wise for normal driving is similar when Econ on or off. But if you really into hypermilling, driving with featherlike throttle, trying to get best FC record, u can get extra few km/l with Econ on.
