Since I bought the car in indiana:
We are at 7 of 30 business days and 2 of 4 repair attempts within 18mo/18k of purchase.
Why do we not have standardized federal lemon laws? Lobbyists maybe?
It's software. After my conversation with the dealer today, they reached the same conclusion I was at so I unleashed all the issues I had experienced with the software that I had previously kept to myself. I did not want them searching through it to prevent the "repair" time but we are both...
In June 2023 it will be 52k. It would be 48k if it was released today. Unless the global economy takes a downturn. I'll be back in 6 months to see if I'm right.
Spoke to the once again annoyed sounding service advisor today who could not answer a single question I had without deflecting.
Basics of what I know: they believe it wasn't the module the first time and is being triggered by something else. Honda engineering doesn't have an answer and may be...
With the rev hang on these cars you have option 1: get rear ended by someone texting their way down the road behind you when shifting.
Or option 2: excessive clutch wear by slipping the clutch into 2nd and 3rd. The remaining 3 gears have close enough ratios and the car has enough speed that...
As everyone can probably assume, after 21 hours home, my integra was back to errors. It got dropped back off at the dealer today at about 12pm. The loaner I got this time was a SHAWD RDX that is very dirty. The inside bothers me with all the fingerprints and scratches to the point that I will...
How is that actually mounted? Clipped into the dash? Genuinely curious. I would like to get a tuner but need gauges to monitor any change I make. Engineer problems.
The closest car I've had to the Integra acceleration wise was (shocker) my 2005 Civic Si. At full rip it felt pretty similar. Obviously in the mid range there's no comparison. No car will ever feel fast to me with less than 600hp thanks to the time I spent I sport bikes when I was younger.
For...
Final notes after my week with the RDX. The 280lb-ft torque was quite noticeable on on-ramps with significant torque steer (especially short inner city uphill ramps). It was satisfyingly easy to exceed the speed limit before hitting the end of any on-ramp without wringing it out. Swapping back...
Got the car back today. Notes indicate they replaced the parking sensor control unit.
There are no notes on what else they did, however I can tell something was done software wise as everything was reset. "Trip A" had 152 miles on it with "11.1mpg" and "41 minutes"
I've had the same issue with lowering springs in the past. I know coilovers are harder with this platform because of the adaptive dampers....but a good set of coilovers would ride better than stock anyway with the nice lowered ride height. The aftermarket will still take some time to make the...
