Two things: One is that my wife made fun of me for the EXACT SAME THING. LOL. And as far as shifting to D to S, by Honda sales guy had me do it during my test drive when entering the highway. Mine's a 2017 EX-L sedan so I doubt there's any diff. The same warning is probably in my manual. Ironically, that little sales ploy actually sold me on the car. I've been doing it without any concern at all. Going to look at that manual now I guess.I don't care for S mode, it really brings out the worst in the CVT with its jerkiness. I bought the Ktuner so I could stay out of S keep in D and it has helped alot. also I feel silly switching from drive to S with my Wife in the car lol, she makes fun of me because I act like it's a manual. ALSO I'm still unsure of switching to S while pressing the accelerator, everyone says it's fine but the manual specifically says doing so could damage the transmission on the 16 CVT sedan.
