  1. Problem with PS4S sidewall cracks

    OP did mention that this can be seen on each tire and given the location of the cracks, cold weather just seemed like the culprit to me. There are many other variables as well like if the car is parked outside where the tires actually drop to ambient temps vs parked in a garage. Being driven...
  2. Problem with PS4S sidewall cracks

    Have you driven on these tires in temperatures below 40F? looking at the picture you provided, that is generally where cracking occurs on summer tires that were driven in cold weather. Summer tires will start to harden up and take on characteristics of plastic rather than rubber in cold...
  3. Turning Radius

    Turning radius is a result of the wheel size on the car. Cars will wide wheels will always have shitty turning radius to avoid rubbing the front wheels lock to lock
  4. I'll buy another "new 2020" CTR in 10 years!

    You'd be surprised how awesome those numbers looked 20 years ago
  5. 2018-2019 Fuel Pump Motor Recall

    Given the type of failure they described, I'm sure they started with the oldest cars affected which seems like late 2018s. I don't think this issue should affect anything past mid 2020 either since the recall was posted around May 2020 so the issue was probably identified early 2020 and I don't...
  6. Rear bumper under cover

    Pretty sure it is made out of a plastic composite which doesn't absorb water unless they changed it for 2020 and newer which I doubt because cars are meant to get wet. I drive my 2018 as a daily here in Seattle so its constantly getting wet and I have yet to see it break down in any way. Edit...
  7. 2018-2019 Fuel Pump Motor Recall

    To my knowledge, you need the dealer to remove the recall notice from your VIN and they will only do so if they did the work since they don't want to be liable for people doing the safety recall work improperly. If you don't plan to ever sell the vehicle, go for it
  8. 2018-2019 Fuel Pump Motor Recall

    you would think that but I have a dashcam and enabled the voice that announces recording is happening on start up and for some reason they thought they could still get away with it.
  9. Tire change Fail.

    O_o how in the world did they manage to do that?...
  10. 2018-2019 Fuel Pump Motor Recall

    Unless you've swapped out to an aftermarket fuel pump, they'll do the recall work. This is completely different from warranty work which can be voided if modified. I am close to FBO and they still did did the recall on my R, just to make sure to watch the techs carefully because they like to...
  11. 4th Gear & Reverse Lockouts?

    I have a 2018 and I haven't had a 4th gear lockout before. I've had a 2nd gear lockout once when it was still new and it was cold but hasn't happened since. Had reverse pop out on me once but I assumed it was my fault since I was in a rush.
  12. Fuel Pump Recall

    The issue was a solvent used on the impellers that caused it to soak in fuel, and break down over time. Honda also, doesn't make the fuel pumps, its sourced from Denso which is why Toyota also had these kinds of recalls. its possible that Denso switched up their production process in 2018, which...
  13. Fuel Pump Recall

    The first set of recalls happened first half of 2020, and recalls are usually a result of an investigation. I'm sure Honda knew about the issue and probably switched to a different fuel pump while the official investigation was going on before the recall was announced. Another possibility is...
  14. CTR engine oil capacity and the poorly designed dipstick

    I put in 5.5 qt and it seems to be good for me
  15. Randomly Blown Bottom End

    nice, you dodge a bullet there especially since they have it written down that they noticed aftermarket mods.
  16. Tire pressure when changing to 18's

    Curious what tires you guys are running. I know for the Michelin A/S 3+, at 35/33 it felt pretty harsh over bumps and holes, but obviously not has bad a the stock 20s.
  17. Tire pressure when changing to 18's

    just a reference of how wheel and tire sizes changing may require different PSI. Also I'm not arguing that keeping it the stock psi is wrong. I am just giving my explaining of why that calculator exists. There are also 100 different variables in play like stiffness of the side wall (varies...
  18. Tire pressure when changing to 18's

    The stock psi is meant for the stock wheels and tire setup based on the weight of the car. When you go to a different wheel and tire setup, the weight of car doesn't change but the load rating (how much the tire deforms under load) changes. This is also why the OEM spare is rated at 60 PSI due...
  19. Tire pressure when changing to 18's

    just makes the ride more comfortable. I'm on Michelin A/S 3+ and the sidewalls are plenty stiff for the 28/26 psi I am on. depending on what tires you are on, you can try lowing it a bit to like 32/30 and work from there
