Hey, main point that trigger me make booking

1. Tax - no need let G suck my hard earn money... Shiok
2. Discount - almost same price with City, forte, vios... personally, the dashboard ady worth the price, for me is almost civic level.
3. Not that commend on the road, feel a bit unique... (Shiok Sendiri *2)
4. FC cover for the maintenance cost... nothing is perfect, take it or leave it


Hope you make ur wise choice, cheerzzzzz

Hi, I notice a lot owners also encounter the alarm buzzer issue.

Question: Will it be better that when collect insight, request the SA to enable to alarm buzzer sound? They should know how to do it right?

SA doesn't know how to enable the alarm buzzer. This alarm buzzer is only discover by one of our insight owner from Lowyat. But so far all the owner are very happy and doesn't have any problem on this issue.
*
I watched the video shared on the 1st page. Where can I get the default pin? Is all insight have the same default pin?

Another thing, the auto center lock, I check with SA, mention currently all Honda model including Insight, will not auto center lock, is it true?

Any DIY way to enable it?

Hey guys, just collect my car today. So far so good, meet my expectation.

The auto start stop engine thingy really need some time to get use to it. Been wondering will this bring any bad impact to the engine if stuck in jam...

As a beginner, I will keep on looking at the multi-display, which is a bit distract, should be norm after few days.

Where can I get insight accessories? Drive to few PJ, sunway shop, cant find any which sell particular accessories for insight, maybe is not that common. I want to buy rubber mat, and trunk tray... T_T

Question, do any of you warm up insight engine every morning before start to drive?

This morning, I start my car and saw a blue sign on the left side of the multi-meter. after around 1-2min, the sign turn off.

You can check the car manual first.

the blue sign on left is engine still in low temperature. No big deal. I just start the car early in the morning then just drive off. You may want to warm up the car if you like... But no need press the petrol pedal to make it fast warm the engine. This will only waste more petrol. Maybe you can ask this with your sales advisor and share with us on the feedback.

QUOTE(lifeseries @ Dec 12 2012, 05:20 PM)
Bro, normally engine sound is loud in the morning, its warming up..after that was ok
i think the blue sign is Hot Temperature. You only need to worry if is not disappeared..

QUOTE(apowerfulskill @ Dec 12 2012, 07:52 PM)
Yeah it just shows that your engine temperature is still low. Just need to warm up. Leave your engine on for a while. No need to rev the engine etc. As said before this, if it doesn't disappear then you have something to worry about!
*
I see, thanks for the clarification. I think best is turn on the engine let it warm up for few minutes, then only start the journey.
Now the FC still not good, everyday Puchong <-> PJ, getting 16km/l. Hopefully will improve once run in...

Feel like a bit guilty to hit the acceleration when during insight sweat.gif

Enjoy...

this morning, low fuel sign appear, 530km from full tank, not bad...

However, when i collect my car, the SA didnt check the tyre pressure, after almost 4th day of driving, only realise the pressure not right, when check at patrol station found out that the pressure only around 25, by right should be around 32 rear, 33 front. This impact the FC alot.

So remember to check the pressure.

Safe drive~~~ rclxms.gif

Where you service your car?

I been to Shah Alam for my 1st service. So many people. waited for almost 2 hr plus only done.

My driver side, power window cannot auto come down.
The people over there dont know do what end up say need to change part.

I didnt notice when I 1st collect my car, now need to go over again next week when the part arrive, they say is the motor problem.

Not a good experience.
