Another thanks to Menlo Honda!! I brought my car in for an oil change and the clutch TSB. Will Ho was my service advisor and he said that the car would be done by the end of the day. To my surprise, he called at about 2PM and said that the tech had already finished installing the new clutch disc!! The car is so quite now!!

I had two minor problems after the service. The center console compartment would not open and the steering wheel is off center. I fixed the compartment door myself, but I will have to bring the car in to recenter the steering. It's kind of annoying to have the steering wheel pointed at 1 o'clock when the wheels are already pointed forward They can't be perfect

Thanks again to Menlo. They straightened up the steering wheel in less than 20 minutes.

If you are looking for a Honda mechanic closer to the South Bay, I recommend the Japanese Beetle (in Sunnyvale), http://www.japanesebeetle.com/. I have been taking my Prelude to them for the past two years for oil changes and scheduled maintenance, and so far, so good. Their prices are usually lower than the local dealership's, and they use Honda OEM parts.

Nope, because they forgot to set it in the correct position in the first place.

Capitol used to do my oil changes, but its so darned easy to do myself so now I do them all and it costs around $10 in filter and oil, and about 30 minutes of my time.

The only two people that work on our cars is Mo and John. Chuck always makes sure one of them is available for S2k work.
