While removing the Eng oil cooler, noticed that one of the two coolant hoses was already deformed and fattening. Sooner or later, it would have busted so glad that we decided to replace all of the coolant hoses this time. As seen on other NSX, upper two bolts on the oil cooler didn’t have enough sealant.

I think this rubber like material on the key is UK or EU (and possibly other countries) model specific as it is not used on JDM or US Acura models. Checked ...

As the master cyl was primed before the installation, it took just one pedal stroke before the fluid level started to change. However, super dirty black fluid kept coming out from the bleeder even after lots of pedal strokes with self top up container attached to the reservoir. ...
