I am trying to change my rear rotors and pads on my 3.2 and i cant seem to find a socket that will fit its like its between a 11mm and 12mm the 12mm is to big and the 11 to small, what size is it suppose to be? This is kind of crazy

I suspect someone has rounded them off due to rust and/or wrong size socket. You may need a "rounded bolt socket" to remove (Sears has them). lso try a SAE socket to see if it fits.

I would get some new bolts from Acura or Honda. I thought they were 14mm socket size, but could be wrong. Check other side of car maybe they're undamaged? Manual doesn't say what the size is only the torque, 17 ft-lbs.

good luck

I actually got them off tonight with an adjustable wrench, i will be replacing them with some new bolts from Honda, its strange though cuz they werent rounded off, btw these are the bolts that u remove to change the pads not the actual caliper bolts, the caliper bolts are definitley 14mm, appreciate the help texashonda, this forum is a lifesaver

TexasHonda was probably on to something when he suggested SAE. I have some bolts on my Honda CBR that are SAE because the previous owner switched them.
