  4. Problems and Troubleshooting
    Hello! First post. This forum is incredible. I have a California CVT 03 insight that I recently bought and have been enjoying tinkering with! My current issue is regarding the ABS throwing up a permanent 15-01 code. Unfortunately I’m in the middle of a move and all my tools were put away so...

    Looking to buy a Gen 1 Insight with low (ish) miles. Has to be manual. Located in the United States. Willing to pay fair price for a fair car. I am not picky on color. I am sure this is what everyone else is looking for as well but I appreciate any help in finding a clean car!

    Hi, all -- You may recall our adventure of replacing our gorgeous 2001 how to replace gen1 IMA battery with a 2000 after she lost against a deer :-( She ran well for a couple of months, including performing well on the 2001 battery, but then developed some hiccup that we can only describe...
  10. Honda Insight Forum 1st-Gen Discussion
    Hello! I'm in the market for a Gen1 Insight. The one I've got my eye on, sold by a private seller, is advertised as having a modern Bubmlebee battery installed, with receipt. I ran an Autocheck, and though it came back clean, the battery replacement was not listed under the detailed vehicle...
  11. Honda Insight Forum 1st-Gen Discussion
    Hi, saw these posted in Seattle and thought I would post here as they seem like some good examples if you're looking to purchase a used Gen 1. I own a used 2001 CVT Gen 1 for two months now which LOVE! Today I averaged 70mpg over 170 miles! Learned so much reading threads here and looking to...

    On my yearly pilgrimage to the Nevada desert the drivers window fairing blew off along I80. If anyone has one on a parts car between Reno and Minneapolis let me know before Thursday. PM if you have one that can ship, its a fairly large part.
  13. Modifications and Technical Issues
    Hi, I got my insight a few weeks back. Fortunately I have no IMA errors, however I have had a few negative recals. I know its never been grid charged, so hopefully this will be a worthy modification. I've used Mike's electrical diagram (thank you) that uses Meanwell power supplies in series...

    Hello All, I am looking to purchase another Gen 1 Insight with a M/T. A car with known bad batteries is even okay as I am confident in working on / changing the batteries. I would consider anything really up to 200,000 miles. Looking for something in the 5k or less especially if it has bad...

    Hi, I am looking for a first generation Insight. Preferably a cherished post March 2001 registered UK car. The car is to replace my much loved 1998 Almera GTI, owned since 1999 (time for a change!!), and previously sold Stylus Kit car. I am located in Ormskirk Lancashire and prepared to travel...
  16. MPG Issues
    We have owned our 03 Insight for 5 years. The car has been my wife's daily commuter until the last year and a half when we decided that she needed an SUV. So we found a Ford Escape Hyrbrid as a compromise vehicle so that she could get the 4wd and space she wanted and still get respectable fuel...
