My dealer suggested that more than just the master cylinder was likely to be replaced, but the downside is they'll need the car for at least two days in order to perform all the work required.

But if it prevents the problem from reoccurring, and saves Honda the cost of x master cylinder replacements (as has been the case for many posters in this thread), then it'll be worthwhile. Fingers crossed.
This bulletin has been around for the TSX in the US. It involves replacing the master cylinder. The problem with this fix is that the "new" master cylinders also has the same defect that makes them creak after a while. The problem will probably come back unless Honda pressures its supplier to design a 3rd generation master cylinder for the Euro (and other creaky models).
