RE: Missing bolts.
I bought my Insight from an elderly couple that had ordered the new Accord Hybrid. Seems the Insight was becoming a little to hard on their backsides on longer trips......anyway the gentleman had always had the dealer do the service for him. Being time for an oil change shortly after I got it, I geared up and tackled it. It was missing 6 of the washered bolts that hold on the front underside panels. I seriously doubt they all vibrated out, had they been tightened any at all. And the center Aluminum panel was nasty. Looked like they just drained the oil out on top of it. It's nice and clean now.
So I stopped by the dealer to inquire about getting the_PROPER_bolts...........well sounds like y'all can figr out "The Rest of the Story"
But just in case:
(Service Manager Reaction).......What small Bolts?..........We dont do small hardware here........just find something that fits.
(Customer Response)....I can show you what I'm talking about in the service manual.
(Service Tech Response from the window ajoining the parts counter)........confused silent expression like what the devil are YOU doing with a service manual.
(Customer Response).....confused silent expression :evil: :evil: :evil:
