Hi, I've had the same problem with the pulse/vibration in the accelerator pedal when I run the A/C and the compressor kicks in. I'd love to find out what they did to fix this problem. Please let me know. Thank you.Quote:

unity, if u have waranty, just take it back to your nearest dealership, and explain to them that vibration you feel from the a/c compresor thru your accelarator pedal when it kicks in/ turn on the a/c. its not normal, mine after they fixed it, i can only feel that normal slightly load when i turn the a/c, just a touch pulse. good luck.
With the squeaking of the drivers seat i believe their is a fix discussed before here at ozhonda search 'squeaky seat' i think by memory you might have to pull the whole lumbar section out didn't actually do it myself but am going to later as i never use it.Quote:

Hope this helps....
Tried a search = nothing matches.
The squeaking i get is rather a "cracking" noise along with squeaking, it's rather loud and is heard taking off, pushing the clutch and moving back and forwards on the rear lumbar part of the seat. It's comes from below the seat mounted side airbag just above where it joins the base of the seat.
It's a real annoying after a while and seems a pain in the ass to fix.
I have now written to the Dealer Principal, The Sales Representative, The Service Manager and Honda Australia with my ongoing concerns. It would be a miracle for Honda Australia to actually back their products (even though my car is 6 weeks old) but at very least the Dealer Principle could get involved and make things happen. One can only dream.
yeah, i was told as it would not affect performance of the car and hence they would not fix it. which is a load of bollocks as i had just got them to fix a dash rattle under warranty. I have a feeling they knew there was a chance they might have to replace the whole seat and obviously they didnt want to fork out. Mine was audible whenever your back was propped up against the chair, i.e. pressing clutch all the way in, brakes all the way in, or just pushing back against the footrest
I've just put a bit of lumbar support, which seems to kill the squeak.
The back panel is a bitch to get off and unless it gets worse I won't be trying that.
Tried altering the lumbar support on the way home tonight = no difference.
See if you can get them to rip it out.....useless crap :)Quote:

This is different squeak, lumbar support section not fixing points to the seat ;)Quote:

The steering wheel makes weird noises when turn. The dealer said Honda Australia is aware of that and has not come up with the solution!!!
