Welcome to the Honda family. 102K miles is not a lot for a Honda. To me, that's just getting broken in lol. As far as being shunned from the V-Dubbers...... You probably are shunned. I have noticed a hatred in Florida between VW and Honda. And that comes from first hand knowledge seeing as my Ex was a V-Dubber and I am a Honda freak. Now I found me a nice Honda man Have fun with your new car

1. Valve Adjustment, From what I remember billman250 mentioning best time to do it is after 70k or after a certain mileage, after the valves have broken in. They tend to tighten up more so then loosen on our cars, plus its good to always check the gaps and retainers for any cracks from a previous over-rev.

2. Axle Nut Re-adjustment so it stops noises and doesn't ruin your rear bearings. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/929...e-nut-tsb-diy/

3. Double check to make sure your TCT isn't making noise

4. Make sure your Clutch Master Cylinder isn't leaking by the clutch pedal connects to it under the dash, if it isn't clean and replace the fluid. Here is a good way to do it without actually going under the car, I did this method a couple of times after a couple of drives till the fluid stayed clear. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/877...t__p__20712208

5. Double check your Soft top for tears, there are plenty of preventative measures on the site.

I'm trying to think about what else, but currently drawing blank. If I can think of anything else I'll post...I can't find the post specifying the Valve adjustment post billman250 made but I'll keep looking.
