I wish everyone would stop boasting about how Amsoil or Purple supposedly fixed their problem. Stop being a band-aid, and stop hiding the issue.
The "Si" is a badge that used to mean a lot to me. I traded my Si months ago - and lurk here - waiting to hear if Honda offers a fix.
I really hope Honda isn't trying to win a numbers game with Toyota, and they stay true to their pride in engineering. So far - I'm dissapointed. The Civic Si is one of the most fuel-efficient "sporty" cars out there - but boy did the 3rd gear grind wipe the smile off my face while driving - I don't miss that a bit.
If someone on this site would start a campaign to stay on Honda's butt about this until resolved - and coordinate the efforts of the forums members - I bet there might be progress. I have a feeling that the core of this site is embedded with advertising revenue from the adds on the site, and that there's a good reason not to rock the boat.
Great article and write-up. It's too bad that Honda of America VIP's don't love their cars (I assume they drive Honda's) enough to read this forum...
Please Honda - fix this issue with the '09 Mid-year face lift of the Si. It's ruining my love-affair. I learned to drive stick in a CVCC.
