A little update. I thought I would have a look to see if everything that has been replaced has been installed correctly. I noticed the track rod end ball joint nuts could be tightened with little effort and i could grab the track rod end and rotate it on the ball joint easily. Seems a bit...

That was my kinda thinking. I've tried new tyres and that hasn't worked and also tried swapping them all round to see if it changes but always exactly the same

Ahh right that's interesting. 16s have a larger profile dont they? So a larger profile means tyres can kinda move and adapt to the road more? I wish I had some 16s to try but this car has had 17s from new. What's weird is it literally came on suddenly

I am indeed on 17s An inch really makes that much difference? A shame to hear it's a trait of accords, that's not something I came.accross when researching getting one. It's sadly not something I can live with as it's quite hard to keep in control at times so the car will have to go if it's...

Thanks for the reply I will deffo change the shocks as they can't be healthy at that age! She has had brand new wishbones with bushes just a few weeks ago as that was one of my 1st thoughts.

Still chasing the same issue. I have also tried swapping all the wheels to different sides etc in case there were any problems with them...still the same. I have noticed that the shocks are all potentially original and the car has 150k Miles. Would knackered shocks be likely to cause tramlining?

The pipes don't seem to be wet, I can't seem to see any leaks in the system. It does feel like it's a hydraulic issue though.. Once I've tried the high pressure hose I think maybe the pump next. Just csnt afford to keep throwing money at it like this. Real shame as it drove lovely only a few...

Potentially a bit steep for a new clutch. My local honda specialist charged me £260 to fit a new clutch and flywheel (supplied my own parts) Mine is a k24 mind you. I would get a few quotes and look at supplying your own clutch. You can select your own then and people generally reccomend exedy...

Thanks for the advice on the o ring. I've changed it with a genuine and you could see that the old one was worn. I also extracted as much fluid as I could with a turkey baster and refilled with genuine too. Its certainly made a noticeable improvement but it's not 100% yet. I have noticed there...

Thanks for that. Apologies I never got a notification for that last one... Some very useful information there! I've had a good look at the hose and the resevioir and there is no sign of leaks or bubbles. I have ordered a genuine honda O ring so I'll be changing that as soon as it comes and...

Hi thanks for the reply! Yep its still got the standard wheels and tyre size. I haven't checked the hose before so deffo worth a shot. I do recall the issues I'm having improving for a bit after the removing and topping up the psf so this would make sense! Should I be seeing air in the...

Hello everyone I'm unfortunately still chasing some weird steering issues. The car is tramlining quite badly. It wants to follow all the cambers etc of the road. It pulls quite aggressively to the left most the time I ***ume due to usual camber. It's not easy to keep in a straight line! So...

My clutch is going I think as the bite point has been creeping to the floor and is now there. Am I right in thinking I can put a k20 clutch and flywheel in and that's the done thing for an upgrade on the k24? Is it the clutch and flywheel off an ep3 I woild be looking at? Thanks!

Thanks for this! I've drained the psf with a syphon and replaced with honda psf and repeated this over the last couple of days after its had time to mix and it's feeling better with every go. The psf that came out was a different colour to honda so I reckon the PO didn't use honda psf. I...

Hi guys really hope someone can come to my rescue with this problem. My power steering (hydralic) has started to feel really weird, as you turn the wheel it feels like it's sticking in certain spots and there are kinda flat feeling spots. Irs not a consistent feeling at all as you turn, making...
