What did you do to your Type R today?

[tinyman392]

Noobie here, I've heard passing mention to this before, but I'm not sure I know what's going on here. Can you enlighten me please? What is the active sound module, and how should one disconnect it?

The car plays engine noises through the speaker system. In comfort mode, it's completely off, in sport it's partially active, in +R it's fully active.

Thanks! Is there a post you can link that shows me how to deactivate?

I think on a Type R this 2020 feature is called IIHAREEVERYSLUTTY (If I Had A Real Exhaust Electronic Volume Equipment Replacing Your Sound Lying Underdash Transistorized Tickler Yousless).

Poetic Justices -1,
Soundblasters -0,

This PITA to reach can you yank connector off of is in the same spot on my Ridgeline.

completed my 30k mile ish maintenance which was an A127 on the maintenance minder.
1. Changed the Oil + filter
2. Rotated the Tires
3. Brake flush with motive bleeder
4. Cabin and Intake Air Filter Change

Even with the brake bleeder the brake fluid job was still very tedious. Had to break the rear bleeders loose with a deep socket 10mm before attaching a hose. I almost rounded a bleeder with a crescent wrench they were on so tight.

Are you using brake bleeder wrenches? Years ago I used to use open ended wrenches and that was a great way to strip one of those bleeders. Crescent wrenches are even worse. Since then I always use brake bleeder wrenches and these work so much better.

By the way. Love that you are using your car daily. Must be a blast. At the rate I'm going I will have 30k in 10 years. Only because I have other daily drivers. But when I do take out the R I love it.

Installed the Aquity Shifter Centering Spring. Still on the fence about it. It’s a lot of work for a small improvement in shifter feel.

I should probably have waited and done this install with the entire Aquity shifter upgrade instead because taking apart the center console was more time consuming than I expected.

I watched a few videos on it, and it’s very time consuming. I’m debating whether or not to just do basic upgrades. The clutch install is absolutely bananas. I used to do EG clutches in an hour, out and an hour back in. This one is crazy.

Wash, clay bar, single stage paint correction, and ceramic coating. Took the entire day yesterday.

I saved a lot of money doing it myself, but honestly I would probably never want to do it again.
It just took sooo damn long.

My navigator was very excited for our first little road trip. We didn't get lost, but we did wander to some places I've never been before. It was a great 30 or so mile drive through a perfectly winding road.

Added a bunch of cosmetic items, for practical and just overall looks.
Side stripe decal from Ebay (seller: zengraphics), great quality vinyl.
Mugen door handle protector.
Type R spoiler decal and Windshield banner from Ebay (seller: dncvinyls) also great quality vinyl.
Carbon Fiber-like door sill protector on all 4 sills from Etsy (jetsvinyl)
Smoked side marker from ebay.
Mugen-style window visors.

Recently installed AWE touring catback exhaust which sounds amazing, highly recomend. ZERO-DRONE and no raspy sounds.
Also installed Mishimoto oil catch can.
