Between 30kph and 80 kph as you start to accelerate it has a fantastic rate of pinging. Over 100kph it just pings all the time.In fact its so unique Honda Australia have referred it to Honda Japan as the ping tune is so special.

Just think if you buy the New Honda Euro 2009 model you might get the pinging model to. Yes folks 5000kms traveled already to the wonderful constant pinging tune. It must be a very special model as Honda must think its worth keeping that way as they have'nt bothered to recall the vehicle and havnt been it touch with me for two months

The official line is its covered by warranty and anything that goes wrong Honda will fix it. Er when....well thats another question. Warranty is for 3 years so they can string it out. Nothing in writing of course regarding the problem just telephone call from Heinz the public relations officer.

And so it goes on. Cant tell you how happy I am with the vehicle. Words just dont describe it. But I can tell you my previous Honda Euro (2004 Model) was fantastic. No problems, no worries. really good vehicle. Can I recommend you buy one of those I can highly recommend it

Hold on I have just thought of something. Maybe those crafty buggers at honda have included the pinging option to counter police radar. There you go Ill have to go out tomorrow and try it down the highway and see if i get my picture taken.

If this wasnt so sick in the way Honda are treating us it would be funny so I have tried to make the best of it even though the car cost me $46,000 and Honda is treating us like a mushhroom . Youve bought it and we dont have to hurry to do anything about it.

Well said.. but if they can still sell the car, i dont think they will act quickly!!
Just hope that more potential buyers can read this pinging issue before they sign.
