finally drove s2k on saturday. but as we were leaving the dealer's lot, one of the mechanics ran out to tell us we can't drive the car on the road because the suspension was locked, or something to that effect.
what is this all about?

They probably meant the spring spacers were still in there...

They should be taken out at PDI. Sounds like they hadn't done that yet...

Maybe they hadn't removed the spacers from the springs (used in shipping) yet. That should have been done when taking the papers off the car though. There is no such thing as locking the suspension, IMHO.

Yeah, at least someone cared enough to yell. I drove mine over 2000 miles before I got them all out. Great Honda dealership service!
