I've had a couple of parts on my TSX replaced with updated and reengineered parts from honda. One is the Clutch MC, which took care of the clutch clicking problem and it hasnt come back. My driver seat has been shifting slightly so I took it to the dealer and they informed me that there is a new "updated" seat track which will be available soon. So I'm going to have that put in when its available.


But it got me thinking...with my warranty coming up, I'd like to get in as much updated stuff as possible. What other parts do you know of that have been reengineered from honda since the 2004 TSX?

my drivers seat rocks slightly when braking hard too, i should get that fixed.

I think the driver's headlight may have been as well as the radio.

Look closely for condensation in the headlights. I've also started to notice/hear of interior bulbs burning out. Namely the passenger side seat swicth backlight and the moonroof backlight. Although I doubt those were reengineered.

are the controls for the seat warmers supposed to light up? I dont mean the orange light when they are turned on but the icon on the buttons...

dom

Yup, yours are both out I presume. lol. My passenger side one went out on BOTH my TSX's.

I just had one replaced day before yesterday under warranty. They actually replaced all 3 bulbs in the modual......

I'm sure you know but the rear endlinks are updated from 2004/2005 i believe.

Yea, i had a seat shifting problem too. Dealer replaced them. dont really recall many re-engineered parts. Just a bunch of TSB's to fix the rattles and stuff mainly.

Question about the clutch clicking problem. I have it as well . What would happen if left alone? Does the MC absolutely have to be replaced? Is there any potential harm to the clutch if its not?

Make sure its the actual MC thats bad. The TSX clutch will always click somewhat, but if its the MC it will be more prenounced and you will actually feel it in your foot (especially when you let the clutch out slowly). If its just a really slight click that you hear when you press the clutch down, I wouldnt worry about it.

If its the MC, well I would probably fix it. It may get worse

dom

My clutch only clicks when being depressed and even then its not every time I depress it. I noticed I can avoid the click depending on what part of my foot I use.

I havn't heard it while letting the clutch out. But I'll pay closer attention.

Damn, and I just thought they weren't supposed to light up. Guess I was fooled, as I think both of mine are out. LOL.

Can you feel it in your foot? It doesnt sound like you have a MC problem. Every TSX has a some degree of a clicking clutch pedal, most likley due to the relay thats there to allow you to start the car (when the clutch is pressed). I sat in a new TSX to test this and sure enough it had a click.
