The 98bhp and 1.6 after owning an S would be a step backwards so a topless German it is

We should have a chat when I see you about which direction of German automotive mastery you're headed in.

But isn't that the one of which Clarkson famously said, it looks the same in either direction?

Just rung the dealer and a new gearbox and diff have been fitted. Honda were due to come out yesterday to investigate the engine noise but never arrived - Monday will be the start of week 5 that they have had the car!

I don't think it took that long to build the car in Japan!

Well August will have gone and I will have missed what summer we had - at least the CRV didn't baulk at the flooded roads!

How many people have 08/09 cars that DO NOT have the engine/transmission issues that this thread discusses? Post up please, I want an 08/09 and I am trying to gauge the chances of getting a duff one.

If you do the maths, the majority.

I would also add that not all noises "diagnosed" through a text based forum are, nor will be the same thing. As demonstrated by a couple of recent examples.
