Has any other fk2 owner found it extremely difficult to check the coolant level in the expansion tank. I bought my fk2 last October and it had just been serviced so no worries about levels etc. The oil gets checked quite often so last week I thought I'd check the coolant.so I looked at the expansion tank and couldn't see a level I could see the min level mark but not the max mark I shone my led torch through but still I was no wiser. So I went to my local Honda dealer who said to bring my car down and they would check it for me. So the mechanic did say it was a but of a nightmare, however he took the cap of the expansion tank and got a really bright led torch and shone the light into the tank from the driver side front wing, you have to crouch down a bit and the level he said was just below the max line. The max and min marks are quite low down and I could just see the level almost on max. The thing is if you are looking for a fluid line quite far down in the tank you won't see it as it's high up just under the max mark. I hope you got all that not trying to confuse anyone.
I'm a Honda person through and through and this would be the only criticism I have with Honda regarding designing this part and its location under the bonnet but to be fair it's mega full anyway.
