Hey Everybody,
I have been driving a non abs 91 civic hatch for a few years, and am out of practice, but it seems that the ABS on the insight engages when totally unneccesary, anyone agree?
In the snow (which I know activates ABS more easily), the ABS made it so that I could barely get any stopping power. Threshold braking seems impossible with the low point of ABS engagement on the insight. like everybody else who complains about ABS, it just seems to get in the way of doing what I need to do in order to stop. Snow and wet weather may be tough without ABS, but a week ago in a snowstorm the ABS pulsated, and interfered so much that I couldnt really slow down fast enough. They need to bring the "locking threshold" up, so normal ABS-free braking can occur up until just before the brakes might actually lock. My dads element has ABS that is almost the same, but not quite as sensitive. grrrr.
