?? Sure you can. Just unplug battery for 30mins, plug back in, let the car idle for 10mins, turn off, and then back on for a drive.

Rep Power: 0 the service manual even says that, remove the 15A fuse from under hood and let sit for 10secs, and you have reset your ECU. You then have to restet idle speed, (which is dumb IMO) idle at 3000 RPM til fan comes on and let idle 5 minutes. funny though but he's right

see, my term of retard is that:
they talk as if we do not know anything about our car. thus, making them the greatest being who knows everything about our car. hence, they're retard.
anyway, one funny story..
few weeks ago, i bought an EX emblem for my '02 ex from a dealer....then, something trickled my mind and i ask this to they dealer guy (service department), "dude, how much do you think to install this EX emblem to my car?"
you guys surely know that im joking with him, right? (in term that, of coarse i don't want them do it)
do you know what he answered?
"its gonna be around $35, minimally we charge half of the labor cost, which is $70 for any job."
LOL. LOL. LOL.
dude, the emblem costed $7.

Rep Power: 0 Well aren't most dealership pretty ghey? They all have some very retarded salesman and service people. They either don't know jack or just plain ignorant. Just have to take your business elsewhere when stupid **** happens.

Rep Power: 0 i was talking to a guy at a honda dealership here and he said that its impossible to take the shocks out of the front struts. but isnt that what konis need you to do? also, another guy over at an acura dealership said that a B-series motor would match right up to the 7th gen civics. all wiring/mounts would be 100% the same.
