they made it a sticky.... thank you s2ki

 

Be clear: you got lucky.

 

I got lucky, but I was very persistent and didnt give up. I called Honda Corp., they admitted it being a common problem, but it's not a tsb or anything like that. They advised me to go to the nearest dealer. The service manager at my local dealer basically laughed in my face. Yet still, I got approval from the district manager.

 

2002....started to rip around 33,XXX . Will be speaking with service manager on my next oil change.

 

thanks for the info.. can you please post that info in this thread to please

It's easy to fix if you catch it soon enough. I'll post up picc later showing what I did.

 

no pic, but i have around 80,000 miles and it is just beginning to wear through.

 

please and thank you
