I recently noticed my crank pulley wobbles bigtime...I talked to Honda about it and they say there have been a few reported cases of it...The crank pulley bolt is tight too..so i have no idea if the thing is bent or what..my car is clean..no accidents or anything..honda will look into it soon and determine if warranty will cover it or not.I sure hope it does...I was just wondering if any of you have experienced this problem, or know of any one with a 5th gen that has the same problem...
Thanks alot guys, your help is appreciated

The crank pulley bolt snapped on my last car - a 1993 Prelude VTEC. When this happens, the keyway that holds the timing belt in time also goes when the crank pulley flys off. The timing belt goes and the pistons contact the valves... This resulted in head damage too on my car.

I ended up completely replacing the motor with a rebuild and selling the car.

You need to get this to Honda ASAP to fix before your pulley bolt sheers in two and it is too late. Even if they just replace the pulley bolt, this will still be a pricey job... $500-600. If the bolt snaps and head damage occurs, you are looking at $1500-2000+ in repairs.
