farrr chill pill man.
nuthin wrong with havin a bit of a laugh here n there.
"Why so serious" *joker voice. =]

n the original poster isnt asking for help.
hes posing out his opinion. and saying that people with the same problems should take action.
and just cause type r saidd "buy a manual" doesnt mean hes not educated or not knowledgeable.

you dont need to keep forums "spam friendly" it aint your job.
and if it was, you shoudnt accuse and jump to conclusions about ones level of education (or so to say).

relax buddy is all i can say. its comments like that, that turn threads upside down and turn to one big argument and mods close threads cause it gets no where.

relax.

All good bro.......

Hi all,
........All dealers use fuel as the excuse and keep pushing us back by telling us to test is again with a few tank of 98 fuel.........

What's with the 98 RON fuel? The CU2 is designed to run on 95 RON fuel. If it can't then Honda has misrepresented the car to people as requiring 95 RON when it (apparently, according fob-them-off dealers) should be running 98 RON. If it really does need 98 RON, then I'm not buying one and I'll just play with my teddy bear at home instead.

[LXRY]

98 for sure......

[Type R Positive]

No need for 98 ron fuel. I can feel a recall coming on.......

98 for sure......

Honda specifies 95.........

.........Which means that it should not require 98. If dealers say it does then Honda needs to change the specification so that people can make an informed choice. 95 RON is about $1.65 per litre in Darwin at the moment. 98 RON is over $2.00 per litre!!!

[LXRY]

so even though honda recommend 95ron you still can't run it on 98ron ? Regardless of price.....

If i had to run my cl9 on 95 i would probably sell it.

runs like a champion on 98 ron and like a slug on 95ron

[Type R Positive]

Of course you can run it on 98, but the point is the honda dealer is telling these guys to only use 98. It is not a fuel issue either. Mine runs just fine.

95 RON is the minimum requirement for the CL9 and CU2. You can use 98 RON if you wish; but my point was that dealers have no business telling people to use 98 RON. If the car doesn't work perfectly on the Honda specified 95 RON then Honda has misrepresented the capabilities of the car. Such misrepresentations fall foul of the Trade Practices Act.

In case you haven't noticed, one of the positive selling points for the new Accord V6 is that it is designed to run on 91 RON*. This is a positive selling point because it has the potential to save the buyer money at the petrol pumps.
