This is painful. :( Get it fixed up soon, otherwise you will have no mood everytime you drive your car.

Thanks, ordering new door from either Acura or Sydney. Panel beater gave opinion that he can repair but wont be as nice as new. Besides knowing me, I'll have this gianness to get it fixed properly.

Anyhow, found that Honda NZ site actually allows you to search for parts and their relative prices.

Go to: http://parts.honda.co.nz/partsdirect/cg ... ?outlet=RE. Then as the registration of the car, enter "EPF777" or "EMG997" and click Continue. Prices seem to be rather high, but I guess when the NZD was 80% of SGD, it would have been very reasonable.

Jeff, are you able to help us who bought from your company to put in the fix for the pinging problem? Honda seems to have developed a fix for it involved new ECU & Auto Trans software and a new knock sensor.

Probably we can check out with MBM if they are able to do it. The TSB release for this is TSB-09-041 (ECU update + knock sensor change)

I'll be bringing my CU2 for the 20,000km service soon, so I'll get them to do the check and fix if possible. The TSB is a TSX one or Honda one? I have the TSX one, but would like to get the Honda one as well, u got?

I found this TSB number from the Oz forum but do not actually have the TSB file. Acura US and canada not too sure whether they are having the same TSB number.

I should be doing my 5k service next month and will inform them. If you have any luck please let us know. Can email me the tsb file ?([email protected])

Emailed you the TSB. Perhaps we should go together since my 20k is coming up too. Wish I could get the door replaced first though.
