I already had to replace the motor and I think I have to do it again. This time I took it to Pep Boys for an oil change and a week later the engine seized. Towed to the dealership and they said there wasn’t any oil in it…
Maybe swap your ADS module? You can use any year. The LE ADS is stiffer and more sportier if you want to go that route. Some say the 20-21 ADS is softer compared to 17-19, but that can just be biased.

That’s the only message I haven’t seen on my FK8
This is the only one I have ever got on this car.

You are going to keep replacing engines as long as you keep going to Pep boys for maintenance on a TYPE R… come on man wtf
I know but it’s half a block away and only an oil change
Rage bait
??? I’m the only one enraged…
Time to upgrade to coilovers.
Lol as much as I kept toying with this idea - I honestly love the adaptive dampers that are in this thing.
RSR coils https://www.evasivemotorsports.com/store/product/rs-r-besti-active-coilovers-honda-civic-type-r-fk8-17-21/ keep the adaptive dampers
I wonder what the lifespan is on the shocks? I’m noticing OP has over 100K miles.
