I inherited my husband's 2001 Blue Honda Insight which he named "Hal". It has been a wonderful car. He changed jobs and had to have one that would hold a lot...
I have a 2005 CVT (blue)...I wanted a 5 speed, but couldn't get one anywhere near me in the blue color. My husband doesn't drive a stick, so it probably better...
I notice that my OEM Insight tires are 78S load rating. I'm needing new tires, and have noticed some 81S available (still Potenza PE92 165/64SR14). Does anyone...
Nice to hear another person who loves her Insight. I have a 2005 CVT in red but wanted a manual transmission. None were available (for sale new) in Northern CA...
I'm looking at a Prius and Civic Hybrid. I like the Civic, and this is probably a stupid reason to decide on one over the other, but my husband will very...
I don't have any personal experience with this so I can't say for sure, but if no one else responds I'd venture to guess they would. The rear seats do not fold...
Thanks - I measured the bag of golf clubs - 4'- they'll just fit in the trunk. Since the driver is the longest - the salesman suggested that we remove it from...
Cathy, if you remove the driver, who is going operate the car?? ... ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never...

My car's been making noises ever since the local Honda dealer serviced it. They can't figure out what's going on, so I'm taking it to the experts - you guys....
When my '00 Insight recently became "herky-jerky", I thought: "time to clean the EGR valve" I knew I'd done this a while back, with the instructions and photos...
... Although it has nothing to do with front brakes, there have been a couple of recent messages about a rattling noise caused by a loose or broken clamp on...
Can you describe "herky-jerky"? My 01 bucks a bit at about 30 or so with a light throttle in 3rd. It jerks forward and back 3 or 4 times before settling...
My 2001 Insight exhibits the same behavior around 35 mph, give or take. Since it disappears on any acceleration or deceleration, I attributed it to the...
It is probably the EGR valve . I went through one of them in my civic and two in my Insight ... I was able to clean the one in the Insight the first time ......
This is a common problem in the Insight, and the Civics which work in a very similar way. The EGR position feedback is via a built in potentiometer. Since the...
I helped diagnose a loud rattle on someone's car on here a while back, and that's what Art is referring to. I don't have the post # at hand here, but if you...
Thanks, Pete and Art. I found the posts I believe you're referencing (post #21497.) The noise in that case was coming from behind the dash. This definitely...
... Yes. If you look directly behind the bumper/front spoiler under the car, you'll see an aluminum sheet that extends across the width of the car. Two black...
Yesterday on my way to work, a rat ran across my dashboard while I was (luckily) at a stop light. After calming down a bit, I went home and put the Insight...
Amy,
Now that is one to tell the kids! Must have scared the ____ out of you. it would, most people.
If you find the opening, you might wish to use what...
... Very unfortunate if/when it happens. Also unfortunate ....*more* unfortunate: the stripping of oil drain plug. What does one do to avoid this? (ANSWER:...
Way back in my 2001 Prius days there was a post from the Dallas area of vermin -rats-mice or squirrels chewing the wiring on a local Prius. The car was dead in...
That gave me a chuckle . I can not think of where such an opening could be . Perhaps he gnawed through a seal somewhere . Perhaps he got into the vehicle when...
Norwegian rats will not be denied. Possibly a sealed steel box can keep them out that is until they decide to gnaw through the metal. They can pass through...
