The rear near side brake caliper appears to be binding to the disc and causing a "blue" affect on the disc. It was mentioned to me the caliper wasn't releasing properly when I took it in to Honda last time and was taking a bit longer to release. They said it may mean the caliper needs replacing...

Thanks Michael. I'm of the opinion it will fit as well, but I was wondering if anyone could be more definitive!

I had 15 inch alloys with budget Mohawk M716 tyres on my Accord Tourer estate (195/65 R15 91H) but replaced them so I'm selling these. Someone has asked if these wheels would be suitable for a Honda Civic 06 that currently has 225/45 R17's on. I ***ume they want it as a spare / emergency use...

Cheers. Had a look and they rate better than the Goodyear AS2 on wet weather braking, and the same on fuel. They're actually 1 Db louder though! Slightly more expensive as well... 15 quid a corner means 60 extra for better wet weather braking.

Finally getting around to putting my new wheels on but have a few questions... I have a 2005 Honda Accord Estate Tourer 1. Tyre size. I have 17" pentas - is the correct size tyre 225/45/17? 2. Someone has mentioned a decent tyre is the GOODYEAR EAGLE Asymmetric 2. I noticed the ratings for...

This morning whilst reversing into a space at the train station my front off side (drivers) wheel started making a horrible grinding sound. When I drove it back home this evening the grinding noise seemed to have disappeared, until further into the journey when going left it seemed to return...

Your name isn't Glenn is it Glenn, it's Max Power ;)

Oh god, it's not good. Been speaking to a fitter and I'm well and truly down the rabbit hole. He has recommended this unit http://www.pioneer.eu/uk/products/25/109/281/AVH-X5700DAB/page.html and I'm even talking about fitting a sub. I'm 37 for christ sake :)

Sorry for the stream of thoughts... whilst upgrading the head unit, would it be worth installing a sub?

Please excuse my stupidity, but what do you mean just buy an adapter? Where would I get one and where would it plug into? I'm completely dense with this stuff...

Yeah this is what I want to do. Dug up the thread you mentioned and it looked pretty good, but I'm not sure I want to replace the existing stereo on top...

Something like that looks spot on TBH. Can you give me a little more info on the unit etc.?

I want to replace the stereo in my car so I can either get bluetooth installed to connect my phone, or even a simple AUX in connection. Problem is the unit seems quite integrated with the AC control etc so I ***ume a straight swap with an after market stereo isn't really an option? I've been...

Wheels finally arrived and when I took them out to take a look they were in a great conditions, but seems they are actually Commodore alloys! They have HONDA stamped on them as well, so ***ume they are just the same style different alloy producer. Still happy with them and can't tell the...

Wouldn't even know where to start (except maybe Google and YouTube...) Is that a major change if the problem is with them? I doubt I'd ever look to do that myself, but good to know for taking it to a garage.
