  1. Best advice for factory size all season tires?

    Yep I rotate them at least once a season before swapping back to summers and do the same with those. Sometimes more but I do check tread depth.
  2. Best advice for factory size all season tires?

    Well my dws06 on my fk8 lasted something terrible like 18k miles before they were down to 2/32 where as the michelins lasted close to 30k miles. On my FL5 I bought the Contis again since the Michelins didnt come in or werent available in the size I wanted (265/35-19). They grip great, but dont...
  3. Best advice for factory size all season tires?

    Holy crap those prices... $286.99 from tire rack for those contis in 265/35-19 I add some meat to protect against pot holes. $333 for them in 265/30-19. They grip great but wear quick. I get more life out of Michelin pilot all season 4s all seasons.
  4. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    I appreciate the kind words! Honestly there will always be headaches, hopefully theyll just not stack up at the same time for awhile, lol. I drove in the rain twice now and havent had the vibration come back (plus I did see where the clamp was hitting the bottom of the car). I feel confident...
  5. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    I did bring up the misfiring that ive seen while logging with the Autel 808 once the first tech pointed at the coils in the video that was sent to me. I think he was just pointing out there was oil on top of the valve cover. I had forgotten that was even happning till that triggered my memory...
  6. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    Yeah I assume the misfire is related to this pending DTC or may have been with the clamp hitting the bottom of the car? But they c But they couldnt or wouldnt check the codes there that I showed them even. I was already mentally drained and didnt want to waste anymore time just dealing with...
  7. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    I appreciate the kind words, I mostly meant I just keep forgetting everything going on with this car in a light hearted way. I showed one of the techs when I went to get my car and was told there could be just normal misfire? What the hell is that even? lol. Nothing more was done for that. But...

    going to pick the car up with a new clamp on the breather hose.. cant make this shit up lol
  9. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    I havent gone that far into it - I never thought anything of it to be honest. Am I an idiot? yes. lol. But I told the service advisor. Im going to do that myself in their parking lot when I pick the car up before I take it home.
  10. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    I may just do that - have an independent shop do the work.. The dealer I wanted to go to (where I bought it) doesnt have any loaner cars and theyre an hour away. This dealer the car is at now has had my last type R before and done all kinds of work to it. The tech there is also an owner of a...
  11. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    When I called to make the appoinment to bring my car in, I was told a test could be done to see if the valve cover gasket was leaking or not. But no test was done. The breather at the front of the engine (top front) does have a leak, and the running theory is that oil is running all along that...
  12. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    update: Honda is refusing to replace the valve cover gasket - oil is pooling at the top of the motor and from this little hose on the front. The hose on the front is to blame for the oil on the back of the motor? Im sorry to say ill never have an update to this thread for why its vibrating and...
  13. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    We'll see if warranty covers the valve cover gasket because I have mods - a RMM and a short shifter LMFAO. Sigh, I am 99.9% sure theyll do the work and cover under warranty but why would they even need to make that comment.... And the "its not raining" when it comes to checking out the other...
  14. Problem driving through water puddles - grind/buzz when I rev - have to restart the car to fix

    I cant seem to find what it is.. and hopefully that is it. Ive seen people have loose subframe bolts and originally this car had the steering rack issue fixed or addressed before honda came out with the updated fix for it. So maybe that? I want a second car regardless and I dont want to get...
