2010 Honda Insight Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Honda's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Honda? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Insight’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Insight's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2010 Insight’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Honda, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Honda Insight leak transmission fluid? Yes. Honda Insight transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
