Hi guys,
I recently bought myself a 2 yr old fn2 type r only 3 weeks ago now. The drive is amazing and it looks even better.
Unfortunately however from around day 2, normally when the engine is cold, there is a loud screeching noise when I engage the clutch in first gear. This combined with the noise of the engine warming up (which is loud enough anyway!) is a bit embarrasing, especially when pulling away in a busy car park.
Anyway after hunting forums I have found that this is fairly common, although I am not sure to what extent or what people have done about it. It would be great to hear from people who are in the same situation and what you have done about it.
I'm taking it into Honda under warranty on Saturday and am curious to see what they say, but if you have any advice at all it would be great to hear from you!
