I tried taking it to Pfluger and got denied. They said it was a "Wear and Tear" issue and the warranty won't cover it. I explained to them that this is an issue that Honda is aware of and told me that I can call American Honda and take it up with them. I'll see if I can catch the Regional Service Manager and ask him about it. I hear that Windward has covered that issue before though. I might try with them next.

Tony Honda good luck. I have some stories. One of them was when I first got my 1st Integra GSR I needed an oil change/trans flush etc... done. I took it over there and the counter guy gave me the speil, nice car blah blah my brother has one. He asked me okay is this car a standard or automatic. I looked at him and said don't Integra GSR's only come standard. He looked at me like they came in both trans type. Hold on, I'll go double check with my manager. He came back and told me yeah they only come in standard. Sorry about that the computer showed it being offered in both trans type. WTF! you work in a Honda only service station, you should know that. Sure! blam the database.

This was a couple years ago:

-I asked a Pflueger Honda service rep to change out my clutch fluid, and they told me the manual trans on the S2000 doesn't have clutch fluid because it's mechanical linkage.

-I told them my 66 mustang had a mechanical linkage and asked why my S2000 would have a clutch fluid reservior under my hood then, but they didn't believe me so they asked if I was confused and I meant the S2000 Auto transmission.

-I told them the S2000 only has a 6 speed manual with a hydraulic clutch but they told me I wrong again and it was offered in Automatic or Manual.

-I picked up an S2000 sales brochure from the sales floor, brought it back to the service rep, told her to read it and to give my keys back because they didn't have a damn clue and they weren't going to touch my damn car.

-I left laughing my ass off with a good story to tell.
