Yep pretty much. It creates a rattle at start up that is loud and annoying, but Honda claims is causes no engine damage. I have had it for close to 70k miles now and doesn't seem to be doing anything bad, but it appears it has been a known issue since 2008 on various 4 cylinder motors and Honda has never fixed it. The lack of transparency about this issue and the fact they continue to put a defective design on the road almost 10 years later makes me not want to do business with them anymore.
