  1. Any of you use a USB stick to play your music? If so, do you convert CD's via Windows Media?

    I know most people don't buy physical media anymore so this question may seem odd. I'm a long time fan of extreme metal, so my collection is mostly on CD's. Anyway, I keep running into problems with Windows Media labeling the artist as "Unknown" which to some may think it would be expected, but...
  2. What is the opinion of the Falken Azenis FK460 A/S for the FL5?

    Seems these tire have become available since I last researched stock size all season's . Maybe be better option to buying new wheels and tires as I don't really want two sets, and it's a little cheaper than the Continental's. Are they any good?
  3. I'm about to pull what's left of my hair out researching 18" wheels and tires for this car.

    I've always kept cars factory, but I'm looking into some 18's for this car with an all season tire that has better options than the factory 19's. I'm not lowering it or anything, just need something that fits as if it were that way from the factory. Getting confused with all the talk of hub...
  4. Dangers of driving in cold weather on the stock FL5 tires?

    I'm not going to drive in the snow, but I live in Central Arkansas where it can be freezing one day, then in the 60's the next. Don't want to park the car and let it sit, so it will get driven. Anyways, once the stock tires need replaced I think I'll go with the Continental's that are the only...
  5. Any of you update the navigation in a 2023+ Type R?

    I know most of you probably just use a smartphone, but I don't have one. Anyways, there are some new and not so new roads and by passes here that do not show up on my navigation. My last car had a SD card in the console for the navi, but the Type R does not. I'm also assuming I get free upgrades...
  6. Anyone have random 1st gear lock out at stop lights?

    Seems to happen sometimes and I don't know why. Almost always seems to happen at stoplight in traffic and never at stop signs on back roads. Could it be due to setting in neutral at lights for minutes at a time, then the syncros getting confused or something?
  7. Accidentally put half a tank of 87 octane in my Type R. Anything to worry about?

    Had a brain fart and topped the car up with 87, so I guess I'm mid grade now. Any worries seeing as I drive like Grandma most days and generally top it off once a week, or around half a tank of use?
  8. Is there such thing as a padded car cover that protects from hail?

    I ask because even though I have a 2 car carport on my house, my last car got about $3500 in damage on the rear hatch and quarters by some pretty extreme sideways hail a couple of years back. It totaled lots of cars, put holes in people vinyl siding, busted out windows, etc. Anyway, hail seems...
  9. Is it just me, or is the aftermarket for the FL5 kind of lame?

    Had a 2007 Si and a 2019 Si and now a 2023 FL5, but the aftermarket seems lame as hell compared to the older cars. Is the FL5 just too new as of now to have a good selection?
  10. Anyone feel like lots of people expect you to drive like a jackass because you have this car?

    I've only had this thing a little over 3 months and I get tail gated and passed a lot, especially on country back roads. Can't really do an enjoyable drive, and I'm not driving like Granny. I generally do the speed limit plus 5 or 10 over on these narrow roads with potholes, deer, etc and almost...
  11. Back up camera, infotainment, and steering wheel questions.

    I've had my 23 Type R for a few months now, and have a few questions about the above. 1st, is there a way to turn the camera off or the brightness down? Damn thing blinds me at night, making it harder to back up because it messes with so much that I can barely use the mirrors or look out the...
  12. What are some decent 18" wheel and tire combo's that replace the stock 19", but the overall fit is close to stock as possible as far as height, ...

    ... width, and offset? Hope that title came out right. Anyway, looking into some 18" set with all seasons to make the car a little bit more of a daily. Want to stay as close to stock overall height width, and offset to avoid any rubbing, speedo, or other issues.
  13. Anyone else find that going into 6th gear in the Type R is not as easy as other Honda's?

    Had a 2007 Si and a 2019 Si before this new Type R, and they were more positive and easily put into 6th gear. It seems like 4th and 6th are too close or something. Also, is it possible to miss 6th and go into reverse on the new R, or is it locked out at speed? Before anyone says I don't know how...
  14. New 2023 Type R owner here with a few questions.

    1st is how the hell do you get the trip meter displayed in the instrument cluster like every other car on the road? 2nd would be what tires and or wheels to look into to make it a better daily.( It's not bad as is, but I can see a low life and high expense in the future on the stock tires). 3rd...
