Congrats...wish the dealer that has mine for the last 3 1/2 weeks was as efficient. Dropped mine off the day after Thanksgiving, they are saying it needs both clutches, waiting on Honda.

sorry to hear that maybe it will be right after that mine shifts so much better like night and day.
Good luck!

I honestly couldn’t tell a whole lot of difference in shifting. Might take off from a stop a little smoother, maybe.

I had the clutch update done when I took it in for the first oil change service. Besides the gear shifting sound being a little quieter maybe, which is probably just from the oil change, I couldn't tell a difference in how it drove. It seemed to have a good solid jerk on clutch engagement when I first got it and it still drives the same way from the best I can tell.

But, I don't get to drive it for 4-5 weeks at a time due to working on the road... if I was in it more often, I might have been able to tell a difference. :confused:

I had the updates done before taking delivery and was told that Honda wouldn't have anymore available until February. FWIW, it only took them half a day to do mine.

I sure hope that's not correct.

I had mine done right after Halloween and it only took my dealer a week to get clutch update and cabin comfort parts in.

I called my dealer and he said bring it in. That was 12 yesterday. Picked up at 4 today. Theres a very noticeable difference in mine. Not near as jumpy , and no shudder. I crawled up my ramps at 1 mph, smooth as silk. Also at 2000 miles my clutches looked brand new they said.

Of all the people on this site you would think they wouldn't jerk you around.
At a minimum they should have some low level goober watching out for you.
Moron is probably out on vacation or something.

Wow! They only took 3 1/2 weeks for mine here in Pelham Al. It does shift better. I now know why the guy loaded on the trailer for me, got it home and unloaded it from the trailer, took it out of turf mode to test the the other modes. I then sighed a relief as I went through the modes to find out it will not go back into turf mode when I finished. 1 hour away, I think I will try to adjust it myself can't handle 3 1/2 weeks again.

Have you guys noticed the lack of good service and honesty that is prevalent everywhere? I remember as a child watching my Grandfather deal honestly with the public, taking care of customers. Those are the parts of the good ole days I miss.

Good day Gentleman and Merry Christmas
