Some of the report from my Health Check.....




The existing aftermarket wiper blades (the one removed and sitting on the glass freely) were really noisy and showing lots and lots of hairline cracks.
Replaced them with the JDM ones.

They are 550mm instead of UK 500mm spec.
76620-SL0-309: JDM Driver side, comes with aero wing. Only about GBP12 from Honda UK
76630-SL0-309: JDM Passenger side Only about GBP12 from Honda UK

Replacement rubber is 76622-SZ3-003 for both sides but for some reason, Honda UK will ask you just over GBP9 each for just the rubber when you can get the whole metal blade body including the rubber at just about GBP12.....
Therefore, unless you are sourcing it from Japan or going for the aftermarket one (NWB), probably best to replace the entire wiper blade using the above parts no..




The CCU aspirator fan (cabin temperature sensor) was starting to get covered by the dust.
Not enough to cause noise so just keep monitoring.






As seen on many NSX, the tail light assy was showing the warp. For some reason, the ‘egg yolk’ later spec light/clear red ones seemed to warp more than the original smoked/dark red ones.

The right side was showing extra warp than the left one. Centre one was fine.
Because of this, there was some moisture inside the right assy (you may be able to see some moisture in the 1st photo above).
Centre one looked fine.
The Left side (2nd photo) looked fine although already warped so not far from fogging up in the future.




As seen on many NSX, the exhaust section was really rusty.
Spring loaded swivel bolt/nut were very rusty but much easier to deal with than the ones used on the early models.
Just break them off and re-use the spring while cutting off the remaining bolt/nut body.




At some point before visiting the alignment platform, best to re-install the anti-roll bar bush.
Looked to be not installed under 1G so bit twisted and the position moved.
It will move any way but if I move it now without treating it first, it may cause squeaking noise so going to leave it for now.








Limit of the standard TB/WP service.
Just wet valve covers at both the front and rear banks.
If done properly, you should not see these oil markings for many years.
