  2. How often do you perform manual transmission service on your FL5?

    23' FL5 CTR 45K mile on the clock. On what schedule or how often do you change the transmission fluid on your CTR? I just did my second drain & fill of my manual transmission fluid at 45k miles with the first being done at 22,500 miles. That may seem early to some especially for car that is...
  3. Unknown alert tone. Do you know what this is ?

    I’ve owned my FL5 CTR going on 2 years and in just the last week or so I’m having this tone (kind of like a soft “dong”) randomly go off while driving.

  7. My 1st reliability hiccup

    My mechanic nephew was installing a sway bar for me today as soon as he popped the hood he said "I smell coolant". Sure enough back side of engine was wet with coolant as well as the reservoir which was almost bone dry inside. We went ahead and did a pressure test and found that the reservoir...
  8. Flashing High Beams (night driving)

    This really is no big deal, but just wondering if other owners are experiencing this? Quite often while driving at night I am having opposing traffic flashing their high beams at me. I assume they think I am driving with my bright lights on. I would say this happens to me at least once each...
  9. Center Hug Rings

    I'm a newb to this and really wasn't enlightened on hub centric wheels and center hub rings. I recently bought a set of aftermarket Enkei wheels to run with all season tires during the winter. The center bore on my Enkei wheels is 72.6mm and I believe the center hub is 64.1 mm? My questions...

  11. Newbie to the CTR ownership family.

    Hey guys... I'm a newb to this forum and super geeked to be a new CTR (FL5) owner. I arrived here by accident, luck, fate or maybe all of the above. I'm a self-admitted Honda fanboi and have spent the last 3 years over on the 11th gen Accord forum. I had a 2020 Accord 2.0 which I was quite...
