Not sure which one is in the 02, but you won't necessarily get it fixed under warranty. Mine does this and dealer said as it is only nuisance value, isn't covered.
I've kind of got used to it now.

Get yourself down to Dixon in Leeds, whatever is wrong with your motor, they will find it.

hi

why start another thread? If you keep it as one all answers will be forthcoming. I have listed another link for the TSB for you in the other thread and here it is again:

I'd go to another dealer. Many of us have had this problem and have had it fixed under warranty no problems. Honda are aware of the problem (hence the 055 clutch) and there's a bulletin for this so not sure why your dealer won't play ball.

You might be used to it but come resell, it may put off many buyers, esp if by then it's out of warranty period.

I remember a thread about this a while ago which said that it was basically down to dealer goodwill whether or not it gets fixed. thats why i just accepted what my dealer said.
Does anyone know of a decent dealers in North Wilts? perhaps i should try again.
The one i currently use is in Swine town
