Re: Heating Problem on 2000 Honda Insight- 180K Miles

[Mike]

I’m gonna call the Honda Tech Line tomorrow.I wanna talk to them and see if they have seen any cases like this. The most annoying thing is that it does not happen when i drive the car. I drove this thing full heat literally an hour on the highway and around town..The customer says he has had the car over 7 years and this is the first year this is happening..Also there is no hot tank in this car but again, this car is first generation hybrid so the motor runs at all times with or without battery assist.. so does the water pump..I think as long as the water pump turns, it has to flow the coolant all around cooling components. I can’t wait to see what tech line is gonna tell me tomorrow..
