Description of the problem	Engine- purchased car in aug 2013 in winter that year i heard a loud grinding noise at morning starts when it was cold. Took to honda dealer service who said it was probably vtc actuator. Had to bring it back and leave over nght so they could hear it in am. Of course the night i took it wasnt cold enough next am to make noise. Took it 3 other times since all to honda dealer plus reported it each time i took in for service. Never able to hear noise because too warm. Still making noise today, 5 years later. Warranty expired. Very aggravating. Electrical- battery has been replaced 3 times in 5 years, this year it was in janurary. Something is draining it when the vehicle is even turned off and not running. Lights have never been left on to run battery down. Each time i have to get a new battery the sales person says the battery is too new to be drained already and there must be something draining it. Honda dealer says they would need to have the vehicle there when the problem happened to find the problem. They said that the first 2 times i took it there the third time i didnt waste my time going there.
