We revise the limits on the FCNC higgses in manifestly left-right symmetric theories. It is shown that the combination of the Kobayashi-Maskawa CP-violation with the tree level $\Delta S=2$ higgs exchange gives very large contribution to the CP-violating $\epsilon$ parameter. It leads to the new strong constraint on the FCNC higgs mass, M>50- 100 TeV, enhanced by factor of the order $\sqrt{m_t/m_c}$. Being addressed to the supersymmetric left-right models, FCNC problem requires both right-handed scale and supersymmetric mass parameters be heavier than 50 TeV for $tan\beta\sim 1$. The most relaxed case corresponds to $tan\beta\sim 20- 30$ where right-handed scale can be of the order of few TeV.
