  1. Problems and Troubleshooting
    I bought my 03 Insight with 115k miles last year from a shady dude with a salvage title. I knew the catalytic converter was stolen, and the insurance company sent it to auction on that basis.

  3. Problems and Troubleshooting
    Good news is that I got the IMA disconnected and that system seems to be fine but there is a huge loss of power and it cannot take hills. I live in Seattle, Washington... which is all hills.

  8. Problems and Troubleshooting
    So, I've got a little bit of a problem. One of my expansion bolts is lose. I'm not overly familiar with the names of the parts involved here, but the two pieces the expansion bolt hold together are lose and seem to separate very easily, which is causing a loud and unattractive rattling noise...
