If you push the clutch slave cylinder in, yes, it will return to it's previous position. It makes no difference if it's the engine is running or not

I was hoping I had an old set of original Honda pads back at my parents home, so I could compare them the ones I have, but unfortunately they have already gone to the garbage... I still have no 100% sure that the problem is from the pads, after all I have always used aftermarket pads and with...

Tomorrow morning will call to another Honda shop, miles away from this one, and see what they say... Probably will be the same, but if not, then I will go back there and complaint about that ridiculous price...

Yep. I was shocked. I even thought that they wanted to sell me pads front and rear pads, but no, only the front ones.... I haven't yet recovered from the shock :(

Guess what, I just came back from Honda and I am completely shocked, they asked me about 150€(120 gbp) for the brake pads :o Obviously that I dind't bought them :( Will have to look further into the situation, see if I can get them cheaper somewhere online...

At the moment I have no time to remove them properly measure them. Still, I used Andy's method that tab is somewhere between 12mm and 13mm, probably 12.5mm. Tomorrow morning will order some new brake pads from Honda, then I will properly measure both and let you know. Hopefully that will solve...

Andy, thank you so much for that info. Later I will measure mines to see the diference. Maybe the ones I have require a thicker pad retainer. Any way, I will probably get new pads from Honda.

Andy, do you happen to have some old Honda OEM brake pads laying around so you can precisely measure the width of that "tab" that fits in the "groove" of the brake bracket? Would like to compare that with the ones I have before I go to Honda and buy a new set of pads.

Don't know how much the Honda ones cost in Portugal, but I suspect they are about 60/70€ <_<

Andy, thank you so much for the pictures. Those really look more tight than the ones I have. I might as well spend some extra money get myself a set of pads from Honda, maybe that solves the problem!

Here is better picture, this time from the other side:

Hi guys, For a while ago, when the heat comes, I have an excessive noise coming from the front brake pads on bad roads or "stone roads". As soon I touch the brake pad, even so slightly, the noise goes away... First I suspected of worn slider pins, now I am suspecting of defective pad retainers...

***uming you have a Type-R, take a look at the following vacuum hose diagrams taken from the service manual: https://pdfshare.it/doc/5HWAHH4FF

Got it. Thanks B)

Sorry my ignorance, but what do you mean or what is the purpose of:

Guess not

It's broken... I tried one from someone breaking a car in ebay, and the one they sent me was also broken :unsure: I have just ordered the following one. The seller gave some good warranties, let's hope it works ok...

Hi, This weekend I got some free time to replace my knock sensor. I had to remove the oil filter and use an articulated breaker bar, otherwise it's quite hard to space to take it out. The knock sensor I got was a cheap one from ebay, and that was not a very good idea. A few minutes after...

Mine is not the best example, since I mostly do very short commutes(about 5 minutes) in city environment. In this conditions, I am able to do about 12/13/14 l/100km. But I have already tried doing the same while running on petrol, and it's about 10/11 l/100km. It's definitely not the best car...

In Portugal there is no extra charge.
