  1. Broken Lug

    It was 3 years ago so the details are a bit fuzzy, but I do remember just banging out the old, broken stud with a hammer. I took the below picture at the time so you can see the limited tools used. From what I remember, the shield behind the rotor had one specific position that I had to rotate...
  2. Broken Lug

    I was in a hurry swapping my summer to winter wheels back in 2019 on mine and cross threaded one of my rear driver's side lugs. The bolt itself is around $4 and even though I'm not the most handy person, I was able to replace it in an hour or two, just taking my time. That includes spraying the...
  3. Skid shield removal to change oil?

    I'm late to respond, but don't assume that a Honda dealer will remember to put the screws back. It's usually the same caliber techs changing oil at the dealership as Walmart or any other place. The certified techs/mechanics tend to do the more difficult work. Case in point, when I bought my...
  4. Official Polished Metal Metallic Type R Picture Thread

    Looks great! Excellent choices!
  5. What did you do to your Type R today?

    They stay in place on their own. I’ve got a set too. They have a texture to them and the material kind of grips the concrete. You do want to sweep the ground before putting them down though. Ideally you’d also use wheel chocks at the back wheels as a safety precaution.

    I liked your shot, but wanted to see the R a little better. ;) Hope you don't mind.
  7. Please help - Rear Brake Pads - How to Retract the Caliper Piston

    If you've got an Amazon Prime account, it's $55.96 on Amazon. It's not ebay China cheap, but it's also not $69.
  8. Please help - Rear Brake Pads - How to Retract the Caliper Piston

    Nice! I got a little too excited with the sale on Amazon the other day and failed to shop around like I normally do.
  9. Please help - Rear Brake Pads - How to Retract the Caliper Piston

    So I went ahead and purchased the Autel AP200 figuring I could at least still use it with my 2007 Odyssey or kids' 2012 and 2013 Civics. I just tested it with my 2017 CTR and the EPB function does indeed work! I could hear it fully disengaging the EPB and then I was able to reengage it. It's not...

    Yeah, that doesn't exactly instill confidence. LOL
  11. Please help - Rear Brake Pads - How to Retract the Caliper Piston

    That definitely makes sense. I'm pretty new to this stuff and had just assumed that since it shows Honda support that all features would work for any Honda that has that given functionality. As if there was some manufacturer database that they just pulled the data from to be able to perform that...
  12. Please help - Rear Brake Pads - How to Retract the Caliper Piston

    Would an OBD2 scanner that has EPB reset capabilities work as the software you speak of? Something like the Autel AP200. It seems like it would, but would prefer to better understand before purchasing. Amazon actually has it on sale today for $52.77. If this would avoid specialty tools to turn...
  13. Switching from 8th gen Accord V6 AT to Type R?

    I came from an '08 Accord V6 Auto Sedan to my '17 CTR. I think it really depends on what's important to you. The Accord definitely is a more roomy, comfortable ride. I had the same complaints with the transmission in the accord. My specific complaint is when going around a turn in a spirited...
  14. Official Polished Metal Metallic Type R Picture Thread

    Looking clean! Did the same Friday night.
  15. If you had to delete all the pics of your R and only keep one what one would it be.

    Same here. I had to narrow down which ones I wanted to keep on my phone. That was a couple of hours of my life I'll never get back! ha
  16. If you had to delete all the pics of your R and only keep one what one would it be.

    It's so hard to narrow 3,130 pictures down to just one! Oh, did I mention that I clearly have a problem? lol I think this is my favorite.
  17. Official Polished Metal Metallic Type R Picture Thread

    I wouldn't do it. Last time I tried to ford a river, Kevin drowned :rofl:
  18. Ok...so I feel bad...kinda...

    I had a very similar situation. I was at a red light and a large, raised truck, (You know, the kind you need a step ladder to climb into. I live in Kansas so this is normal.) was coming up in the lane next to me and revving as he was approaching. I saw him eyeing my R and when the light turned...
