1. get the SC to check the brake clips instead of skimming the brake disc etc;
2. try pulling the front passenger seat belt all the way out and then release it back slowly and see if that makes a difference;
3. those are just clips that are not fasten properly, you can DIY it yourself rather than leaving it with the SC for half a day to complete a 5 minute job - don't worry about damaging anything because you won't and even if you managed to somehow damaged something, it would just be the clips and it is cheap to replace.

read US forum, upgrade the speaker make sure installers know how to disable the ANC things. or else your upgrade speakers become worst. most installer just dismantle the ANC wiring after upgrade

I have upgraded components set + amp + woofer.
You're right. Please ensure ANC removed otherwise it will have background sound..

Apparently this few days i have experience screeching sound vmad.gif from my rear brakes.. and somemore it only on one side.. doh.gif

SC no solution, i gave up already, SC cannot solve this issue.

one thing i have not tried = may be change the brake pad outside, see any difference? cause i suspect it is the materials used in honda brake pad.

Go to spare part shop and ask for Brembo brand brake rotor, the normal OEM type replacement, not the slotted race type (unless u wanna pay more).
My ex-Honda SC mechanic told me this is a proven solution.

SC cannot because they will replace with original part.

Mine didn't have any problems, so didn't change, but the mechanic told me if ever I have the problem, don't bother to change to original rotor

i asked for quotation 2 yrs back, disc rotor was RM480/pair and brake pads was RM240/pair, excluding installation fees. So you are looking at close to RM2k with GST, considering the price has increased over the years. I dropped the idea cos I changed 2 pairs already with Honda. May revisit the Brembos after warranty expired in a year plus.

The SC quoted me about rm700+ b4 gst for front brake pad replacement. If the brake sound still there, they might replace the brake rotor under warranty.
Honestly might fed up with original brake pad since almost all user will end up with that brake sound after certain time. Still looking for aftermarket brake pad n forgo my brake rotor warranty

the honda ori brake pad is extremely expensive, i will never replace it there, last time i did not ask the price just said ok replaced, ended up 700+ for brake pad, i can get it below 300 from any tyre shop.

you don't just forgo your "brake rotor" warranty only.

you forgo the warranty for the entire car.
