Anyway, took it to the dealers last week and went out for a test-drive with a mechanic. Of course, he denied that there was anything wrong with it even though I SAW it jump out of third when he was downshifting.
So, I'm not getting anywhere with the dealer at all which is incredibly frustrating.
Where do I go from here???
As an update to this, I gave Honda a further call to ask for advice (and to see whether they said anything about the cancelled fix as per the post above). Well, I nearly fell off my chair. After seemingly endless infuriating phonecalls over the last couple of months to the dealer and testdrives etc. the lovely lady at Honda came straight out and said that it's a known problem and she couldn't understand why my dealer was being so difficult. She put in a call for me to the dealer and then called me back right away to confirm then the synchro would be changed for me and that the dealer would call soon to arrange the fix.
Now, the dealer hasn't called yet, but I can feel the weight lifted off my shoulders already.
Thank you Honda Customer Relations! :thumbup:
Now, I hope that it all goes ahead and the fix
is a working fix for me...I'll let you know
