I am sad to say that I scratched and dented my 06 HCH a couple days ago. Haven't even had it a year. I know it's going to be expensive but need to have it...
Honda has generously agreed to replace the IMA battery in my 2001 Honday Insight (162k miles). The battery started losing/using all its charge under a haevy...
It should only take a few hours to R&R a battery. I'd ask for a figure up front and find out their hourly labor charges. Also, make absolutely certain they...
... My defective BCM and MCM were replaced separately prior to my IMA battery failing (I doubt that both were defective, but Honda replaced both). Then when...
The IMA light came on in our 2000 Insight last week. We're at 75,000 miles and live in NC - not one of the seven states listed in the May 13, 2006 service...
I haven't heard of anymore being added but you should call Honda of America. Also, my 2000 battery died after 102k miles and 3 years, replaced at no cost, ...
I took my Insight in to the dealer for an oil change yesterday. No problems on my way to work afterwards, but when I left to go home, the check engine light...
Hard to tell but all the more reason to change oil at the recommended interval, and not every 3,000 miles, you will save oil, save time, it won't effect your...
It certainly doesn't seem like they would have done anything with an oil change to set off the Check Engine light... If the dealer's going to charge you to...
Since 95%+ of my driving is on highways (and not at excessive speeds), I usually get the oil changes at 5,000 miles. It's also easier to keep track of when...
Jack - When your battery was replaced, were the BCM and MCM replaced too? Is the "most recent letter" you referred to a letter Honda sent to you or to all...
The IMA light came on in our 2000 Insight last week. We're at 75,000 miles and live in NC. The dealer got a diagnostic code of 01447 and ordered us a new...
I think it is more of a product update as part of the IMA battery warranty extension. When my dealer pulled it up he said it was a recall, that ended up...
UPDATE We may have to change our percepetion.... I may be the victim of a bait and switch. I just got a call explaing that in fact I may have to pay both labor...
I'd talk with American Honda and mention that the cars are now under 10yr 150K mile IMA battery warranty, your just barely over that and say that many others...
Does anyone have copies of Honda service bulletins 06-057 and 06-027? 06-057 is the bulletin that extends the Insight IMA battery to 10 years/150,000 miles in...
Ditto what Greg has asked. I'm lurking in the background with a 2003 Civic hybrid with 80K+ miles and wondering when the ol' battery will take a dive. Are you...
yes..... I would love to have a copy of those right about now.... ... From: mscasa@... To: honda-hybrid@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 5:22 PM ...
Oil change should not be the cause. Mechanic may have jostled an O2 connection. Every check engine light that I had was due to bad O2 sensors. Jimagoo...
If they did anything to the coolant, I think there is a connector to a sensor that is directly over a bleeder port that is often disconnected to access the...
The whole hype about changing every 3000 miles is a marketing scam, say it enough and people believe it. In reality motor oil is so much better than it was 20...
I agree totally with the marketing hype of oil changes. It's all a scam (very well done scam) by oil companies. I've read several consumer articles about this...
Your post reminded me of a CarFax study I read saying how often times, their reports are totally false. When car owners see these reports and provide proof...
Thanks anyway guys, I spent the $20 and ran it already myself. J Jim From: honda-hybrid@yahoogroups.com [mailto:honda-hybrid@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of JM ...
