My car goes in for its 18k service next week, so will see what I can find out from the dealer wrt the recall. Knowing Honda - I'll be none the wiser!

N4S, if you are ever on the South Coast there is a great tunnel on the A27 at Shoreham.

You may also want to try the Dartford Tunnel at 1am.....I did it on the way back from a concert at Docklands....2nd gear...8k rpm....Smile City !

Has anyone tried calling Honda UK to see if they know anything about the recall?

There's a new tunnel in the Pyrenees on the road between Bourg Madame and Andorra which is 4,780 metres long. I was through there about ten days ago, air-box cover off, HKS exhaust.......
