I had a power steering fluid leak that was easily repaired.
My alternator just went.
This car turns on a dime.
Looks amazing, even after 12 years it looks brand new.
I love this car, it was my first import and I fell in love the first time I saw it.
Recommended to anyone who can afford Honda's ridiculous repair and maintenance bills.
I have the same problem with leaking power steering fluid under the hood. The dealer is trying to tell me that I need a steering rack based upon the leaking fluid only. I really doubt this assumption, though. Can you tell me what went wrong with yours and how it was fixed???
Remember there's a recall on the power steering pipe that goes over the exhaust manifold. I had this replaced for free a couple of years ago, and I wasn't the original owner.
Having a problem now, 2 years later, with the top blowing off the power steering fluid reservoir. Not sure what the fix is.
Happy with the car otherwise.

A seal in the power steering pump which eventually wears out. I was having problems on my 88Si. I would fill the power steering fluid to max and it would overflow the tank. This is because of air let into the system by the worn out seal. The seal in question is a main seal that is on the outside of the pump. Honda does not sell a replacement seal however a guy on hondaprelude.com was selling a good match for $10 a piece. I installed this seal and have had no problems since.
