Nov2009174000640CEL P0420. Per Honda SM 100% CAT, wanted $1,500. Per My debug & indp shop likely 1 of the 02 (A/F) sensors and NOT the cat. Shop thought front 02 sensor, I thought rear 02. I buy OEM parts. Did front sensor first. Not it. 2 weeks later, rear 02 sensor replaced. THIS WAS IT! Shop likes to replace cat bc this sensor rusts to it, but only need new sensor. P0420 not always the CAT. Check fuel inj. temp sender, coolant temp, front A/F or 02 sensor and rear 02 (mose likely). 
Feb20101800000Lower drivers side seat squeaks, rattles, and moves. Isolated to lower seat hardware, broke or worn out. I ordered OEM parts (~$100), repair when I have the time. Problem the same as a TSB 02-059, but I have different type seat. 
Jul201018600075Rear, right, door lock actuator, was intermittent, eventually, was failing reliably. Symptom: doors appear to lock (hear clunk from locks), but OEM alarm LED/Lights dont flash = one or more doors, not locking. Lock door manually, then OK. OPS. Occupant position sensor, passengers seat, replaced, extended warranty repair. Dealer thinks problem caused by my HAM Radio equipment, despite, side air bag warning light lights, only if it's RAINING. Unknown if repair successful, yet.
