I did mine just out of caution. I have no issues with my rear hubs at all. I just had time and did it. I used a bit of anti-seize on the nut threads. After I increased the torque, the nut positioned itself about 1/2" beyond the original place where it was locked in. I just pounded a new indent.

when i retoruqed mine the first time, i had a very similiar change... about 1/2" past the old indent.
thanks Xviper.
It doesn't have a TSB number. It's not a technical service bulletin, just a service note or advisory. There is a number associated with it, 011201, but it's not a TSB. A scan of the page can be found at https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...c=103975&st=35
It isn't a TSB, but something less official called a Technical Service Note, #011201, the page image VFROOOM posted above.
alright --
i guess where i'm at is confirming the presence of grease or never-sieze. if that's not there, i know my compression is low b/c the torque is wrong. 220 ft-lbs on dry threads w/ a dry back is WAY less than 220 ft-lbs when greased. (probably close to 1/2. i'd have to check my torque calc sheets at work tomorrow).
if i'm good for torque -- any recommendations on where i should go next? xviper? thoughts?

This is going to be a really tough one to answer. There could so many components that need to be looked at - wheel bearing, CV, brake components, ABS components, wheel weights, rear diff, prop shaft connections. And I'm sure this is only a partial list.
either or, that's what i was afraid of...
so, if it isn't torque... i'm pretty much just waiting for something to fail and hoping it does before 100k miles, so that Hondacare covers it...
*sigh*

Hey-
The service manager in Tallahassee looked at it on Monday, and I have set an appointment to take it in for service tomorrow (along with clutch buzz and parking break sticking). The manager stood outside the car, as I demonstrated the clicking noise. He said he thought it was "caliper shift" and that the brake calipers were most likely a little loose. Hopefully they will fix it! Would the caliper shift also create the parking brake to stick?
On a side note....are the transmissions for the 00 and the 02 the same (except for the revised clutch)? I rode in TallyS2K's 02 yesterday and there was NO buzzing noise....just wondering if there was any extra sound deadening material added or anything like that.
thanks
John
