So this happened to me once also. It was after my cars battery died for some reason. After I charged the battery again, the pops and bangs went away. I don’t know if the ecu reset to the factory tune after (I don’t even know if that’s possible to be honest). Car pulled just as hard as I...

Yeah I haven’t grinded my car once. It’s actually a very smooth shift into second. Even the downshift into second is smooth. It’s just, at times, I’ll get this vibration going through the shift knob only when downshifting into second. Seems to be correlated to being heavy on the brakes while...

damn definitely weird. Does this concern you or do you think it’s normal? I wonder why more people haven’t mentioned feeling this. It’s pretty apparent when it happens

Glad someone finally felt the same thing lol. Was hoping I wasn’t the only one and something was inherently wrong with my car. I’ve noticed it happening a lot less lately. Don’t know if the trans is just breaking in fully. I’ve noticed if not on the brakes when downshifting into 2nd, it tends...

I know Honda will take care of it but I’ve been getting the run around from multiple dealers around me. I went to one in person (literally a year ago) and they said they would call me when the part came in. Haven’t heard back. Another dealer I called and they said they would order it and lmk...

My 23’ currently has the seat frame recall. I’m a bit tired of hearing it crack every time I make a turn. I’ve reached out to two separate Honda dealers about ordering one to get the recall done. They ghost me. Not sure why but they never get around to me on this and I’m over constantly hitting...

What a headache honestly. If inspections ever came to Florida I would just leave my car stock and never mess with it. Just seems like a pain in the ass to have to deal with every year

To answer your question I really don’t know. However, if you could avoid taking the car to a dealer for routine maintenance by an underpaid inexperienced lube tech who couldn’t care less about your car, that would probably be best. this car is very easy to work on. Either go to an independent...

Drove the car for a bit with the AC off today and can’t say I noticed any difference to be honest ??‍♂️..same engine noise and vibrations on or off

Can’t say I’ve ever noticed the car being louder with the AC on but after thinking about it, I don’t think I’ve ever had the AC off ? Florida life it’s always hot. Gonna run the car with it off and see if I notice a difference in sound

wouldn’t be opposed to that at all. Can you give me the dealership name and his name so I can request him?

Dang that’s unfortunate. I don’t get along with them much either, especially with how they treated my last accord. It terrifies me to even think about bringing them the FL5. I already inquired about me bringing the car to a different shop and American Honda said they wouldn’t honor the...

Hey @Jester04 , have you had the two recalls for the earlier Type R’s done at a local dealer that you can recommend? The driver seat frame recall and steering worm gear recall. Been trying to find a good dealer who won’t damage my car like Holler Honda has done to my cars in the past. So far no...

Dang no one here has had these recalls performed and can recommend a good reputable dealer????

Been patiently waiting for this to come out. I have the stage 2 Acuity kit and it’s decent but not as big of a difference over stock as I was hoping. Noticeable for sure but nothing crazy. Still gonna wait a couple months to see what people think of this vs the Hybrid Racing shifter before...

I still have two open recalls on my FL5. The driver seat bracket and the steering gear recall. I don’t really notice any steering issues unless it’s really cold. I’ll feel the notchiness then. My driver seat does make some odd noises during turns though which is not confidence inspiring. I...

appreciate the info! My next oil change will be at 12k miles since I always change at 3k mile intervals. Only value im hoping continue to go down a bit is that aluminum number. 9ppm is definitely not bad but since the average is 7 I would like to see it around that range. All in all I’m pretty...

Couple questions. What metals and values are important to look at to determine whether the engine is wearing properly or if there is an issue? I know both blackstone and @johnloov have said my oil sample looks good but there is a lot in that report so just looking to see what I should focus on...

Appreciate it. I got the car from the original owner at 3000 miles who said he changed the oil at 1000 miles. I’ve changed the oil at 3000 miles, 6000 and now 9000 miles. This oil sample was from 6000 to 9000 miles. So I’ve done 3 oil changes plus the original owners first oil change and...

just had my oil checked by blackstone. 3000 miles on the oil and 9000 miles on the car. They say everything looks good. Do yall agree? most stuff is pretty good or lower than the average but I have a couple metals that are a bit higher than average so just seeing what people think. This was...
