Re: OT - OBDII readiness rant...
All I really know is that they put an EGR valve on it, and when I picked it up they said it was ready and would pass and it did...
I have no idea why the Check Engine Light was not on and none of the 3 scanners picked up the code (and the one I borrowed was specifically said to handle Honda and Toyota "enhanced" codes) but I gather from talking to the guys at Acura that it isn't the first time it has happened...
I'm just happy it is fixed and it wasn't some bizarre wiring problem or something...
I'm kind of regretting getting rid of my GLX though...

Glad ya got it fixed up to pass.
