1-888-946-6329 Call it in! Doooooo it! The more people we get complaining, the faster it'll go on the priority list. Apparently their working on it, but it's not considered a major concern for them. Let's make it one!

hey stevieray, thanks for all the great info! I just talked to the service manager at my local dealer, and i have an appointment on thursday. He didn't know about the service bulletin until i gave him the number. He said it will be covered under warranty, and it could take a few hours.
btw, I have a m/t ex coupe. i'll post the results on thursday. |

The TSB states that the reflash fix is for the Si. Here's a copy of it at TOV:
http://www.vtec.net/forums/one-messa...sage_id=597807 Are you sure that the reflash works for the EX/LX too? If it does, then what if the service advisor gives you grief about it? What should you say? After all, it doesn't say in the TSB that the reflash is for the EX/LX as well. It only says it's for the Si. He would have a point there. |

I called my dealership today re: V2.005.008 for the R18
and he still knew nothing of the sort. But he was real cool about it and is checking into it to see if we need to get it from the U.S, etc.... I also let him know of the bad V2.005.005 which tripped error codes just so he knew not to get this one up on his tablet. lmao! he should get back to me sometime within the next day or two. ill update if i find anything out on this issue? |

Ok just a lili update. I brought my car in to Goudy Honda in Alhambra and they're absolutely no help. Stevie, i did exactly what you told me, and they disreguarded everything. They said, if there's a problem, we'll fix it, even after i repeatedly stated the problem and the solution. I just dropped the car off so i don't know what the results will be, but either way don't go to that dealer.

Of the people who have had this reflash performed, did you specifically ask for a reflash or did you mention the TSB? What was the approach? My dealer gave me the run around.
I mentioned that there is a new TSB on this issue (DBW lag and rev-hang) and they said, "best if you bring it in then we'll look at it." |
