    Third brake light saloon

    Hi Everyone, I've just fitted an OEM boot lid with a spoiler to my 7th Gen accord. Does anyone know if the parcel shelf brake light and the spoiler light work together? Or is it one or the other? Is there a separate harness needed to get both working?

    Cooling fan

    Hi everyone. I have noticed this with my newly purchased Accord Exec diesel. I have had to top up the coolant a few times in the space of 150 miles. It was on the top level, a couple weeks later it was just below the low level.

    Power Steering High Pressure Hose - Advise

    Getting s replacement from a hydraulic specialist was my original choice tbh but was having trouble getting any replies back from them. I couldn't just nip in either as it was a lil while away.

    Power Steering High Pressure Hose - Advise

    Sorry it's been a while since updating this. The first PAS hose ended up having a leak on the flange so it returned it and installed the new one. The new one seems to be working without any issues since. I thought I would wait and update once I've driven it around. I've done around 3k miles...

    Power Steering High Pressure Hose - Advise

    I managed to get hold of a NON- Genuine one which cost me £32.50 with 5 year unlimited mileage warranty. The company have quite a large Ebay store but they also have a sales counter like a normal trade super-factors and is based a couple miles away so popped down and bought it. This is the...

    Power Steering High Pressure Hose - Advise

    thanks @accord_n22 and @antdad. Appreciate your help with this. I'm going to speak to my local auto part stores in my area first. I rang HH and Lee advised as a cheeky alternative to have a word with companies who specialise in PAS hoses and brake line etc. I found a couple in my area so will...

    Pressure hose replacement on power steering pump

    Hi, did you buy a genuine one as no breakers seem to have a spare one available, Honda seem to think its funny to ask £300 and ebay have some ranging from £36 to £69 (non- genuine). Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated :)

    Oil - Petrol Engine - 0w30 or 5w30

    So I've ordered 4ltrs +1 of Castrol Edge A5/B5 0w30 and a genuine oil filter. Hopefully should complete it this weekend. I'll be interested to see how better she runs as it looks to be a no brainer. Hopefully fuel economy should increase as well

    Oil - Petrol Engine - 0w30 or 5w30

    Thank you peeps for the info. It confirmed everything I was thinking in the first place. I think i need to keep well clear of these so called mechanics. Any one using the lower viscosity oil seen their oil consumption increase? When I usually use 5w30 i rarely have to top up but I'm ***uming...
