The 2nd gear issues get worse the colder the car is. I'm not driving differently the colder the car is.

2056. 5M. I'm losing so far.

Full body in xpel- roof in black, the rest is clear. I like the look- I'd do it again. The only part that is noticable is some of the folds in the fin. If you aren't looking, you can't tell, though.

Winter vacation companion.

Turns out I was right.

The 5BW doesn't like subzero temps. -2 (-25 with wind chill) and it took an extra few beats to start and when it did, threw a CEL. Not sure if it was because of the exhaust valves... It didn't sound like they opened at first.

1°. Oil temp read 3° at startup lol

Launch control??? I wouldn't dare. Anything over 50% throttle gets sketchy. Temps were in the 20s. Tires reported as cold even though I had been driving on the expressway for 15 miles or so.

Actually had a clear interchange ramp and once straight, floored it in 3rd at ~70. Still spun like crazy. Winter driving sucks.

My dealer told me 6-9 months...14 months ago.

Many people don't realize that living below your means can make ordinary people wealthy.

I paid out of pocket for the dealership to take a look at that cylinder during my first oil change. Thankfully they said it looked clean.

From the time I placed my order, my car fund lost 20k then I paid above MSRP just to ensure I got one. My own fault, sure, and I don't regret it, but the delays have impacted many of us.

Holy.

Funny enough, the usual recommendation for the Honda transmission 3rd gear grinding was GM Synchromesh.

Settings -> vehicle -> remote lock, unlock, and start -> remote window operation This morning confirmed the new car smell is gone. 😞

Yeah, I turned that feature off after getting in the car. I think the windows went down shortly after I locked it 12 hours prior because the car smelled like outside and not new car smell.

Just came to my car after work with all the windows down. No idea when they went down. Time to turn off the remote window control.
