What did they say?
After the dealer replaced the cylinder head the noise is now gone. The dealership handled this in an oustanding fashion. The service manager explained the entire process and since they provided me with a loaner vehicle to use while I was without our vehicle I feel Honda really backed their product up with great service AFTER the sale.

Is your problem described in a different post with the cam shaft being damaged? If i were you i’d request long block replacement. You don’t know wher cylinder walls looked like, plus all that metal flowing around didn’t do any good for your turbo..

Perhaps a UOA could pick that up.

Depends how much of the damage it caused. There’s a chance there will be no sypmtoms first for a little while. But i’d be definetely monitoring oil consumption and do the UOA within a thousand or so. Cutting the filter would be a great idea as well

I have a 2018 Si with stage 1 PRL intake and Ktuner with base map and sport 23psi. Since last week only on cold start i hear a knock. After Warm up it is gone. I use 93 Octane from costco. I might switch gas stations to see if it will change. I only have 2500 mile on it. Any ideas on the cold start knock?

Need some advice if anyone knows, I uploaded a video which I’m assuming is knock control since mine sits at 1.09 most of the time, it does go down from at times but the lowest I’ve seen it drop to is .88, I’m trying to figure out what’s the cause of this or what the issue even is.

thanks in advance
