My S is three at the end of Nov.
So, Service and MOT.
As I like to check everything on my car, after reading about seizing suspension bolts, I thought I'd grease them all: easy job armed with torque wrench and copper grease.
Two sleeves in front lower wishbones (rear bolts) seized solid.The bolts came out
but the adjuster sleeves were seized in the bush.
SB Honda in Wakefield have replaced these under warranty and reset the geometry.
Anyone with a car this age - as stated by other members - check those bolts before you're out of warranty. The parts alone were about

Do the service MOT BEFORE the end of nov AND check all the common warranty issues. I had clutch probs and phoned the day before the warranty ran out to let them know, they said that it was noted and that they'd sort it. If I'd phoned or taken the car in a day or two later, I may not have been covered. Even if there's no problem but you are concerned about something/anything, inform them before the warranty ends.
