first gear is just to get going, 10mph max. I get started and get into 2nd push to 2-3K max up to max 30mph and then game on. My max push gears have always been 3&4 but while type s is great fun, it does not match the 3-4 of s2k.
I have driven s2000 on sticky tires for over 10 years/100K miles without this happening ONCE!
And with the ITS it happened at 120 miles and again at 180 miles on the odo
If stones in rotors were that common won’t be be hearing some car or the other screeching all the time? Specially where I am...
Mine didn’t charge. When a car is under warranty and making a noise, they have to look at it and fix it whether it’s a stone or something else because the customer doesn’t know it’s a stone. I cannot know it’s a rock in the rotor and they did say that they adjusted the gap and they were clear...
Yes fixed under warranty.
very few Hondas have brembo brakes, and always only in the front - so we are talking replacement in thousands.
In my lifetime of driving low cars with large rotors and big calipers, I have never encountered this problem once, even in my 20s when I drove much wilder...
I hope it isn’t but this doesn’t happen that frequently and the dealership was honest in telling me that they’ve been fixing type s’s that have been coming with this issue. Looks like a recall case to me. Rotors aren’t that expensive to replace as compared to some other recalls in the past...
The forum should keep a track of this as it is beginning to look like a recall-type issue. My other cars, whatever their brake caliper size, never had this problem. It's happening for too often for a "freak incident"
This happned on Type S when it had been with me for just five days with 120 miles on it. The screeching was continuous and SO BAD that I had to call roadside assistance just to spare others the agony of the metal-on-metal sound. This hasn't happened to any of the cars that I have owned before...
