  1. My SI is leaking oil, what about yours?

    Hondabond? Really? Why do threads like this sound more like a Chevy forum?
  2. Oil Dillution affected. My Si is recalled

    That's usually good advice. Except for recently when Subaru decided to solve an engine problem by ripping the whole engine out of a FRS/BRZ , with the work being done over 12 hours by techs that probably never ripped an engine out of a new car before and have no idea how to apply RTV gasket goop...
  3. Oil Dillution affected. My Si is recalled

    So, how is the rotten egg smell?
  4. J. D. Power 2019 Vehicle Dependability Study

    I was in my brothers 2018 Hatchback Sport. I liked the overall design inside and out. The only thing that I thought looked a bit cheesy was the fabric used to cover the console area by the shifter , where you would normally be touching alot - or at least I do normally. I think that a padded...
  5. Time to first scratch/dent

    Snow/Skiing resorts are the new drunken waste lands of bad behavior. Four young people died on two different ski resorts in my area. But the news doesn't make a big deal about alcohol and abusing "fun" at public settings..Too much money at stake.
  6. Honda quality sorely lacking

    Well, that's true... I mean Socialism currently is for the Wealthy & Corporations - leaving reality and crumbs for the general population. What we need is Socialism for the general population, with no corporate officials. There is soft wear that can replace officials very easily. And with the...
  7. Waiting for the recall (oil dilution) was

    Yeah, besides, who keeps cars past 60,000 miles anyway? Although it would be irritating to smell gas in the cabin for that period of time.....
  8. Honda quality sorely lacking

    The truth is that all brands are cheaping out. Doesn't matter anymore. Except for new model year changeovers and the dismal truth of turbocharging little engines which is always problematic. Eventually all cars will be electric, soulless, and disposable. Hopefully cheap too. Once all the...
  9. Leftover 18 Si... have a quote

    I like the new Lexus LC500 . That's a CAR !
  10. Another "oil dilution" tsb thread.

    There will come a day when turbocharging will be out of fashion and the reliable, everyday car will return to take it's place on the pedestal it once dominated. Why? Because turbocharging was meant for improving the performance on sports cars and specialty cars that aren't sold as being...
  11. Opinions on which turbo to get.

    They say that Miatas are the definition of Fun. But... one mans garbage and all that rot....
  12. Opinions on which turbo to get.

    I think the V tech High Revers were better for tuning. Among other things. Just sayin'.
  13. Oil Dilution TSB

    How could any of this be happening in a Honda ? Or is all of this kind of insanity a conspiracy to make us adapt to electric vehicles eventually?
  14. Fuel dilution

    Mostly the gas engine dramas that started about 7 years ago are the result of making mileage numbers look good on paper. Every DI and DI turbo engine out there use more oil in one way or another - and now require longer drives to make them work well. Start/Stop makes no common sense either, but...
  15. Fuel dilution

    So, It seems like after all the consumers get tired of all the drawbacks of direct injection without a secondary port system on board, Honda and the other suspects will have to start spending a few friggin' dollars to make a "better" system of fuel distribution. Or, just go with electric cars...
  16. So many trading in their Si ?

    My opinion is that it being similar to the mental image and concept of a WRX, many buyers assume many things about the pleasures of a car being "sport injected" and so on. Some factors are apparently actual engineering disappointments as well as real flaws that wind up bugging some owners and...
  17. Fuel dilution

    What is the reality with the fuel dilution issues? I've never heard of this on other similar 4cyl turbo. But now I am seeing alot on many brands with the combo of direct injection spray patterns and other factors. And is it true that the engine knocks if you push it using regular octane? It...
  18. It only lasted 2,670 miles...

    These conversations don't sound as good as the typical "image" that the name Honda conjures up. So, I suppose that all the talk about "value for money" is the same old excuse for why Corvettes are such a good value. In other words, you get what you pay for in the final analysis . But the idea...
  19. Did Something Blow Up?!

    Sounds like any other manufacturers weirdness that is all too common with the newer turbo 4 engines. A thousand poor excuses for low oil levels backed with assurances that "it doesn't happen that often" .
  20. What did I damage?

    Not so sure that the latest generation is overall comparable to the previous and much older generations. Just saying.
