My friend have one of first EP Type-R. We are from Europe.

Now it is almoust 3 years old car. 3 times changed stearing system in warranaty time.

It is normal when gear shift can be take out easy when drive in 5th gear.

And strage sound when start to drive in 1th gear. That sound like something broking. We think that this can be some iner join.

Car still have warranty, but that time will be finish very soon, and friend have loan on this car 5 years term. Very big head pain with this car.

 

You lucky *** guys, take it in to the dealer. See what they say. I wish I had a Type-R

 

Your friend better hurry and pick up a extended warranty 7/100k
