I have the AEM v1, I guess that is what you call it. I never had a problem in just rain or small puddles. I call what I hit a lake I haven't decided to take mine off yet, but I will be cautious though.

Willie, you sure it didnt' sputter cause of bird debris? just kidding.

Rob,

Just saw this post! Glad to hear that you dodged the bullet. I had to replace a motor in my Prelude when the same thing happened.

I picked up the S tonight from the Honda dealership. She purrrrrrrsssss!!!!!!!

Battery $79
Idle Air Control Valve/Labor and Oil Change $380

Driving the S around without a major overhaul, PRICELESS


xviper, I could not have done this without your help. Thank you just doesn't seem enough!!! And to those who read this and posted or even read this and couldn't add any more, thanks for being around this forum for those of us who do not know enough.

The code that the dealership told me was P0507, was surprised they had that handy when I asked.

I'm glad this worked out for you as it did. It could have been much worse.
The closest thing to your code I have listed is P0505, which has to do with Idle Control Malfunction.

I can't agree with you any more. And if I ever make it all the way up into Canada, I hope to say hello too.

All hail xviper, who doesn't know me from Adam, but whose posts to others have provided enough info to fix problems on my car he never even knew about.

S2ki MVP, IMHO
