Be sure to check the markings on the tire to make sure both rears are the same type

For example - S02s come in both Honda OEM (W rated) and Porsche OEM (Z rated)

This happened on my sons car and it was that simple

I notice that because the rear tires are wider then most other cars I have driven, especially front wheel drive cars, that if the road surface is not level (road warp) that the car will pull one way or the other. This becomes most noticable on accelerating and braking. Thats just my thoughts. I also agree with some of the other responses.

Get your tracking, balancing and allignment all checked, your car will drive completly different after that. My S feels so much more planted than what it was before all this was done.

Hi Chris

just a quick question noticed you saying how much more planted the car feels with the alignment done ,just a query what did it feel like before

Vixen and I are in heated debate as to getting it done as the car feels fine at the mo ,I feel that it hasnt been done in 4 yrs so it should be done ,where as Vixens been told that if it feels ok its not worth the

Do you feel your car likes to jump a little over cat eyes? Try braking HARD, does the car like to go a little in one direction (take into account the camber of the road)? If so get it done. Its a

I can second that.

Whether MT-90, GM Syncromesh FM, or the Honda OEM stuff you really cannot go wrong. In my case MT-90 worked better for smoothing out a notchy 1->2 shift on cold mornings.

Most likely you have Honda OEM fluid in the tranny and if it feels good to you, you can put the same stuff in. If you do it yourself, you can experiment with different fluids and see what you like.

I thought LE was in the process of making a tranny fluid - I could have sworn the rep told me that at the Dragon last year......maybe it is still in the works.

Anyway ^ this is good info. I have been having issues with the first second shift this winter and reverse is just as bad, but it has only been while the car is still cold. Guess I'll give the MT-90 a try.

IIRC, MT-90 is worse than the OEM stuff for cold weather. For me, cold is anything between 50-60 degrees in the morning. Not near freezing temps.

Cold tire pressure should be at least 32PSI, didnt any else catch that?

Warm pressure would be higher and may not be even L to R.
