Don't touch the studs!!! I broke one and it was a fucking nightmare. I had to take the turbo apart and do some dirty things to it that I don't even want to repeat here. Ignore the allure of fancy titanium and leave them be before you ruin something. Forget you ever read this.

OP should've bought a Tesla...

The manual will die once hybrids take over, but they've got to spare us from the CVT. I wouldn't mind if they developed a proper DSG for the SI/prelude/CTR. Anyway, the 25 Integra is specced out on acura.com with no changes to the drivetrains. The same L15 continues with manual option, so...

If you're so against greedy dealers then why are you getting them to fix your car? Send it back to the factory if you find their business model so offensive.

OP needs to find a hobby.

We all need a good huff of copium every now and then.

For real, just take a hard look at the state of the average car on the road. Practice defensive parking as well as driving.

Bro was praising his CRV's cargo room in the same thread where he recommends a fucking miata. Seriously bipolar. I'm kinda sad he's gone because now we have to talk about engines or something.

The CRV forums sure are slow eh?

Your CEL blinked? Surely it's catastrophic engine failure and you've just been coasting around since then. Lawyer up, or better yet grab yer AR and storm the dealership and take whatever car you want. They owe it to you.

Cable bushings of course but also shifter base bushings.

Rear seal I guess. Bring it in because it won't go away on its own.

At 18ftlbs I wouldn't even bother with the torque wrench, just use a ratchet until it's snug. It's easy to miss the click on a low torque and go too far.
