Default New diff mount is in.

The new mount is in! Took a little longer than I thought since I was talking to him most of the time. They had to drop the sway bar and exhaust to get the mount off. Only took about an hour. I had the person that always works on my car do it. He also tried to get the oil off of the exhaust, but I told him I would at home. BTW, this fluid is a b*&ch to get off once it bakes on to the exhaust. Also changed the diff fluid. The fluid was clean and no shavings on the drain plug. They used was I brought and didn't charge me for the service!.

I also told the tech to go out and really drive it since he was thinking about getting a Mitsu evolution. He had not driven an S with mods before and he came back with a smile from ear to ear and is considering the S now! BTW, he has friend that works at a Mitsubishi dealer ship here in town and they have already replaced 2 shattered transmissions that Mitsubishi would not cover under warranty!

Great service Honda East

Thanks,
Joe

Dave,

You should have stopped by my office. We're in the big gold, glass building just north of I-70, on Brice Road! Let me know next time you're out here, and you can introduce me to your "super tech" at Honda East.

You got it. The first light after the I-70 overpass is Chi Chi's and Bob Evans. The next light is Channingway, and the gold glass cube is on the north west corner. Can't miss it. 5th floor.

Why did you replace your differential mount?

He had it replaced under warranty because the old mount was leaking fluid.

The mount was leaking all over the exhaust, and my floor.
