Default Build up my hopes

Well only a few days ago I made a post asking about problems other people had encountered to get a feel for the reliability of the car ...

Tomorrow I was due to go to Bob Gerard and pick my new S2k up.

Had a call from them at 6pm to say ... no can do .. when they where prepping it today an engine warning light came on so they've had to take it to a Honda dealer tomorrow.

It's not Bob Gerard's fault .. and hopefully it will be something and nothing .. but ..


ARRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

At least it wasn't you having to take the car back after one day of ownership.

Fingers crossed it's nothing serious.

I'd be chuffed to be honest that they are doing something about it before you pick it up, it will all be fine........

>>> secret compartment! Don't Panic!

WHAT is inside the secret compartment???

Or don't I wanna know??

;-)

(and hold on ... if it's so secret - how the hell do you know about it?)


They're with it in the Honda dealer's right now. Fingers crossed it will be something and nothing.

regards

James

Right. The oxygen sensor is faulty. They're taking one off another new vehicle and getting it sorted out. Picking up the car tomorrow now! Hope it is tomorrow or my plans for the rest of the week are totally knackered.

Any of you lot had fun and games with an oxygen sensor?
