I'm getting all 4 center caps replaced tomorrow, hoping it ends there! Never to have problems in the future, only time will tell I suppose

I have an update on the rims...

After bringing my car to the dealer for that grinding (throw-out bearing) sound when starting from stop, I also mentioned that the rims are pitting. Showed service manager and he said he would replace all of them under warranty...they also gave me a whole new cutch assembly (under W)...YAY Honda...now onto the oil consumption...

Bought a set of winters so there should be no salt issue anymore to pit them...never replaced my center caps though:(

Cheers,
Shu

It's a 2012 Si with just over 60K kms... but I started the oil consumption monitoring before warranty let out.

consumption of oil: 15% oil life, when I brake hard or take an on ramp at speed the oil light turns on and then off. I had to put in 3 quarts prior to getting oil changed which chaps my behind as they just drain all new oil a week later. So Honda is looking into it. I'll keep updating as I hear more.

Cheers,
Shu
