Honda Insight Warranty Void

I bought my Honda hybrid insight in March 2012. 2 months back, my car fuel consumption is getting higher and also some noises occur (I assume the noise came from the tappet) so I acknowledge this issue to Honda dealer. And after they verification, they stated they need more time to check on the fuel consumption but they solved the noises matter. They stated had change the parts by claiming warranty from Honda Malaysia.
So recently they came back to me on the fuel consumption issue. They stated need to take out the engine and to do checking and this definitely would cost a lot according to the dealer. And so they make a report on my car status and request for warranty confirmation. Honda Malaysia stated a No warranty claims due to inconsistency servicing my car. They expected myself to service my car on time. Example when your mileage reach 10,000km, you need to exact timing to go for servicing as for my case I exceeded a few time. I'm using fully synthetic engine oil.
Do anyone encountered such matter?

Consumers are the small guys. Car distributors are the big boys and they always win.

Agree with bro. Breadman, if you have voided your warranty then they have reason not to approve your claims. I see that you have passed the service interval a few times therefore not much you can do about it.
Anyway I will transfer you to Honda forum, maybe you will get more response from there....

My practice for the car under warranty, service the car earlier than manufacturer schedule, and also never add in any non authorized accessories during the period, so their have no reason to void my warranty.

Hopefully can get more feedback from some Honda owners who experienced this before.
Thanks
