If you were Honda would you take two customers seriously who had named their cars Snowy and Jenson ?

Probably as seriously as a man who gave up a year of his spare time, and aged 5 years, trying to organise 220 cars of the same type get together in Italy.

Lee!

Jenson was so named by folks on the Dales Meet because he's as blue as a Button.

Can't remember why Snowy became Snowy....

Mmm...perhaps you have a point after all!

Then its just how i've read the thread over the last page or so.

And just to clarify it i'm giving the impression of having a go, i genuinely understand your frustrations and hope that both your cars are fixed to you satisfaction as soon as possible.
No worries Lower, I didn't take it as you having a go.

I just didn't want to be known as "hysterical" woman

From Bokkie & Gaspode's joint post, it seems to me that Honda UK are working hard to diagnose the issue, and are taking it seriously if they are sending the engines to Japan. That sounds good.

Who has advised on the possibility of other engines within that range also being affected? Is this from the Honda Technicians?

You both have my sympathy, I'm looking at this from what I hope is an unbiased perspective, and I am glad that the dealer concerned is working hard to resolve things too.

Trish, it may be worth you sending a note to the contact I gave you with your feedback on the communication between technical and Customer department. Take comfort in the fact that the technical guys seem to be taking the issues seriously, I had no doubt they would be, that is how Japanese companies work.
