I tried talking to my local service department and of course they won't even order the parts until they can verify I have the problem. Therefore I'll have to take my car to them twice! Geez, how much is the kit really going to cost them? You would think they could keep a kit or two on hand. I wonder what the criteria/symptom will be that determines who should get the TSB done. I'm anxiously awaiting someone to post a scan of the TSB...

 

I have the TSB in my hand. It's called "02-042". This applies to all S2000 for MY 00 and 01, and for '02 up thru VIN 6983.

The spark plug kit is P/N 06122-PCX-306, H/C 7230527. [I edited PCS -> PCX, my typo in original post]

Basically, this is a spark plug replacement. The instructions say to remove the old plugs, install the new, and torque to 25 N-m (18lb-ft).

There's also a sticker to paste over the owner's manual (presumably to indicate the new part number for the plugs and the new torque rating).

The sticker says that the plugs are:

NGK: PFR7G-11S
Denso: PK22PR-L11S.

In addition to specifying the higher torque setting.

 

I'll try to oblige guys

Work does get in the way!!!

FYI, the bulletin applies to ALL S2000, from MY00 and 01, and 02 thru VIN 6983.

 

Very strange, imo. Does this change the part number for NGK, Denso or AC/Champion plugs? Do other aftermarket plug makers have differing gaskets depending on the vehicle application? If not, the more significant change is the torque setting change to 18 ft-lbs.

 

My dealer indicates that should probably be

P/N 06122-PC5-306

although he can't find either part number??!?!?

Correction, there is a picture of the sticker here. Looks like:

NGK: PFR7G-11S
Denso: PK22PR-L11s

Hope that helps guys. If/when I *EVER* get out of this meeting I'm in, I'll try to scan this for ya's.
