For the 2nd time since 2008, I've had to replace the sparkplugs due to pcm issues. The engine light will come on and gives an error code of p0303. Unfortunately you can only go to Honda to have the computer updated, and they will try to sell additional services. Today they refused to update my computer stating the only way to fix was to replace all the sparkplugs despite the service bulletin stating otherwise. Despite this being a manufacturer issue Honda has forced car owners to pay for this repair with no true fix existing.

Transmission/vcm constantly continues to shift. Car cannot locate correct drive ratio. Very prevalent when driving 60 mph on level grade and no pedal movement. However, the transmission and/or variable cylinder management constantly surging is noticeable at all speeds with no change in pedal force applied. Also, when accelerating from a stop slowly and a sudden demand to increase speed, the transmission fails to downshift when the pedal is pushed to the floor and restricts the engine rpms.
