HHH et al

I'm an Ontario Honda guy as well. I must say, I LOVE the service I get there. They know me, my tendency to be really anal, and simply meet every expectation I set. I woul drecommend them to anyone. As for the TSB, haven't gotten mine done yet. Still teetering on whether to change out my tires for the 11/9 event or not, would probably just have Ontario Honda do both together...Hey another question, anyone have trouble with brake fade after swapping fluid? wondering if anyone used a block of wood under the pedal to keep teh seals from contaminating or not....

just wondering...

Soft pedal after a fluid change - 1st thing I would suspect is air in the lines, thus more bleeding required.

Did you do yourself?

And yes Bob, I agree, Ontario is the best in the area!

HHH -

Haven't done it yet, looking to avoid potential problems. I was talking to Bruce Parks (might recognize the name) about the nov 9th get together, pondering whether to change the fluid or not. He suggested the wood because he knew of Nsx owners who had seen brake fade after fluid changes, not because of air, but blown seals. They attributed the seal damage to length of travel of the brake pedal. Basically, becasue under normal conditionings, your pedal only goes so far, you build up "crud" on the calipers. When you bleed the fluid, you push the pedal to the floor. longer travel, seal rides over the crud, starts to leak fluid. Just wonder if anyone had seen this on an S2k? I am hoping to change the fluid next weekend, that is of course if I am not work! (like I am now)

Thanks

Bob
