The car feeling and quality really worth the sub 40K price point.

i would say the weakest link for the car is the stupid CVT gearbox.

it simply shit.

if has typical AMT it would be wayyyyy better.

if the FD2 is 40K, i would buy that shit in a heartbeat

AMT is not typical. It is rare..

AMT - automated manual transmission. It's a manual internal but computer help u clutch and shift. It's totally different from a conventional auto.

Civic comes with AT. Automatic transmission. This use torque converter. Where AMT uses clutch.


The only cheap car I know having AMT.. Is savvy... 🤣
BMW 335 e46 csl.. As far as I know only one in Malaysia

not tackling the issue regarding the vroom vroom effect.

its more about CVT robs HP from the Engine.
Increase complexity = more stuff to maintain.
Undeniably the maintenance cost for CVT is higher compared to normal AT.

and is the CVT claimed better FC really justifiable or even true in the first place?. To me it is no better or worse than any of my house 2.0 car (W203 C200 Kompresor and 2010 CRV)

Hi all, just wanna ask if anyone face a/c issue. While driving, a/c suddenly blow warm air or outside temp air with stale smell.

Tried many things like change battery, on off a/c, go to workshop, all cannot solve. Workshop tested and straightaway said compressor issue.

However when i tried to turn the blow mode all the way to windshield defrost back to face level blow several times, then off and on the a/c again, things get solved, hopefully for good.

Suspected the system confused with heater mode and a/c. Any other solution to this?

maybe gas not enough,so when there's no gas, so it cant cool the air so it will blow hot air, but when gas is there, it will blow cool air..

if u the dial getting crazy, maybe u can use a multi-meter and check...whats the resistance...is it fluctuating or not...but im not sure which wire to tap...must ask kenny sifu..

or someone else here have a better idea...im just guessing

Workshop said gas is enough.

When the problem happen, it happen for months. While stationary, cannot hear compressor kick in. But when a/c working randomly, air is very cold.

This morning, after cold start the car and drive to a traffic light near my house, the a/c is working while stationary. But everytime it kicks in, my battery voltage go down to 13.2 and then go back up to 14.3. I use the usb charger with voltage meter.

After a long drive to work, while in traffic jam, the voltage did not go down when compressor kicks in.

Hello fellow Inspira owners!

I'm new in this forum and i'm pleased to see all of you here.
I owned an Inspira 2.0P (model 2011) which was previously brought and given to my wife to drive. Everything in the car is stock standard.
She recently decided to "upgrade" to Honda thanks to the GST-free period.
Now, the Inspira is given back to me.

I know very well that the Inspira was based on the Lancer and there are many many mods we can do to the car. While looking through this forum, i was amazed with the overwhelming possibilities. I just dunno where to start.

I hope i can learn a lot from t he sifus in here and i would love to join to TT sessions if you guys are still into it. Just let me know.

For a start, i would like to mod the Auto Lock/Unlock function, add on the Headlamp Levelling switch, upgrade the suspension system, change the spare tire to the space saver type so i can free up more space in the boot.

Please help to point me into the right direction and on what/where to do these stuffs.

I'm also looking to remap the ECU for better FC and performance. But i'm not sure who is able to do it.

Thanks!

I used to face such incidents when warm air comes out of the air-cond. Then i noticed that the LED light on the far right dial (temperature dial with a car icon) was off (meaning no recirculation). After i pressed the dial and the LED comes on, the air turns cold again. This happen when i used AUTO air-cond mode. Sometimes, i accidentally pressed the temperature dial.

The LED on the temperature should remain lit.

Hope this helps. Cheers!

Your car is 2.0p i assume. Mine is 1.8e with manual a/c.

My far right dial is on, meaning circulation is on and no smell of lorry exhaust. I guess my issue is a bit different from yours.

But thanks anyway for the clarificafion.

that is just normal, might be battery is weak. but anyway, maybe the aircond sensor is faulty, it detect the ambient temp in the cabinet already <18 celcius so it doesnt start the compressor, in fact it is not, so when sensor is working, it will start the compressor, when its going haywire, your compressor starts randomly?

I first thought it was battery issue. But change battery recently and the issue just gone from bad to worse, until i somehow learn to swap defrost mode to face blower multiple time to fix the issue momentarily.

Maybe sensor issue as you explained. As air is super cold when no issue. But turn to room temp randomly.

Your spec is 1.8 or 2.0 ?
Auto climate control problem ?
U can try to press and hold ur temp button till it beeps, it will shut off that function then it will never control air flow or circulation anymore.
