touch wood if any of the parts that i can't get warranty or warranty over, will try to get any ckd parts that are similar and replace it. example like the side folding mirror glass, rear absorber, wheel bearing, brake pad, anything that is similar with ckd and do it outside.

QUOTE(STC @ Apr 23 2014, 09:43 AM) Wow...why you change CVT before 40k km? The required change for replace transmission fluid is :- Normal conditions: 90,000 mi / 144,000 km / 6 years OR Severe conditions: 30,000 mi / 48,000 km / 2 years. Actually, Insight is equipped with the computer sensor for CVT change but not sure if this option is disabled for Malaysia Insight which is identical model exported to Australia and US. The Insight's CVT transmission is confirmed by Ohkubo-san as using a start-up clutch.Anyway, I used to change and service my Proton gear box according to schedule until till failed after about 100K Km. Later, I found it wasn't even gear box problem but contact problem with the computer box. Now only change oil when I see significant changes in the colour. No problem since then. My friend never changed his Audi's transmission for almost ten years. When the gear was acting up they change the oil and it is back to normal. Don't let SC rip you off. Be a strong consumer and fight it out for unreasonable charges. NOTE: Maintenance Schedule Charts There are two maintenance schedules, one for normal conditions and one for severe conditions. Use the "Severe Conditions" schedule if one or more of the following apply: You mainly drive less than 5 miles (8 km) per trip or, in freezing temperatures, driving less than 10 miles (16 km) per trip. You mainly drive in extremely hot [over 90ºF (32ºC] conditions. You mainly drive with extensive idling or long periods of stop-and-go driving. You mainly drive with a roof rack, or in mountainous conditions. You mainly drive on muddy, dusty, or de-iced roads. If you only occasionally drive under a "severe" condition, you should follow the "Normal Conditions" maintenance schedule.[SIZE=7] In this case, it ties to the necessity of proper maintenance of the gear-box. Besides the use of CVT-F, it was also highlighted that it is crucial to replace the oil once every 20,000km. http://asia.vtec.net/Reviews/2GInsight/index.html This post has been edited by alxdc: Apr 23 2014, 03:02 PM |

QUOTE(STC @ Apr 23 2014, 05:29 PM) Always suspicious of translated write-up. Obviously the chief engineer did not read their own Honda manufacturer manual. Whether he said change every 20K. But 20K mile or kilometer? The article also pointed out that the Insight was fitted with latest CVT which is more reliable. I leave at that. It is not a translated write-up. Asia.Vtec.net been around since 1996 and it runs by our local guys. The interview was done in Malaysia and I'm sure the chief engineer is talking about 20k km even in Japan they use kilometer.http://asia.vtec.net/Reviews/2GInsightFull/index.html http://asia.vtec.net/ start-up clutch. CVT is not latest. its old the article was wrote in 2011 the new latest Earth Dream CVT now employs the standard "torque converter". The 'start clutch' was originally located at the end of the gearbox, where the final drive is located. But here, the torque converter is placed at the usual location, just after the flywheel and operates like a regular torque converter. There is no 'start clutch' in this CVT gearbox. So, the message from the LPL is crystal clear - as there is no 'start clutch' so 'start clutch' failures will never happen with this new CVT gearbox.
