Hi machines

How is your car.

just skip ur fuel filter replacement, air con service to next service schedule. air con service can skip to much later schedule.

How long do we need to service the aircon once ?

In our country climate dusty hot and humid weather, every 2 years once is good enough and change the AirCon filter once every year.

sorry to pop the same question again, anyone here experience in changing your tire rimz from 16' to 17'?

almost minus 10k if you take the 2012 stock.

meaning we need to stick with honda sc as long as we still own this car?

If you want the new extended IMA Battery warranty, yes for 8 years from when you collected your car I think.
After 8 long years then it's up to you if you'll drive your Insight that long . For me I will try to drive my Insight for at least 10 years ..........

I/m curious, if you service outside from honda, how much does it cost you per service and how long do u service, ever 5k or 10k interval?

well, that battery only cost RM3k++ for now and I foresee it will drop further after a few years
just my personal opinion....i found that the service interval from honda is quite unreasonable and it is quite pain in the ass to stick with the charges of their maintenance plan for 5 years..
probably I would source for external SC after the 3 years warranty is over

guys, i dunno about u guys, but i service in 10k interval. using the fully synthetic oil. this is how i arrange my service schedule. the expensive service period is always the 20 and 40 interval. try to split certain parts that need to replace on the 5k interval. for example,

10k fully oil normal service ( excluding air filter and air con filter)
20k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter) with cvtf (cvtf adviceble to change every 15-20k)
25k buy air filter from honda and install urself
30k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter)
35K change cvtf , buy aircon filter from honda and install urself.
40k major service (excluding fuel filter, air filter, aircon filter , air con service, cvtf)
45k change fuel filter ( no labour charged coz, already paid on 40k service)
50k fully oil normal service WITH air filter
55k air con service & cvtf (excluding air con filter)
60k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter)
65k change air con filter change cvtf
70k fully oil normal service (excluding air filter and air con filter)
75k buy aircon filter install urself change cvtf
80k same as 40k...and continue

For those who prefer to change cvtf At 40k interval then do it on 35k, 75k. Fuel filter at 45k, 85k. The goal is to pay lesser during 40, 80k major service.

Receive letter from honda on the extension warranty for IMA for 8 years. that is good part. the bad part is subject to fulfillment service according to the schedule at authorized honda .

Thanks for sharing it

Hmnn....which sc that allows 10k service interval?

well...i have been to Kah Motor Puchong and Actmar in Klang...both SC were telling that the maximum distance allowed for would be 5km regardless which type of engine oil opted...I even called up Honda Malaysia and the reply I got was to adhere to the maintenance plan as per the service booklet in order to be eligible for the vehicle warranty coverage...

in the end, i gave up...have been using the SM 0W-20(Fully-Synthetic) engine oil for my car as I felt it gives a better acceleration and FC compared to the other type of Honda engine oil which I have tried before...the service interval is still 5k

another question is that whether is it compulsory to change the oil filter every 5k?
I've noticed SC has changed it for me everytime I go for my car service
