Sounds like an ideal candidate, search the forum and read up on the remap done by most mk7 owners here. It's tried, tested and recommended.

Good idea about those Philips' . Personally as I'm an old man and mines been lowered, I'm either getting blinded or the back of my head is getting irradiated by HIDs so not a great fan.

The manual is in my signature btw.

I don't know, might be better off going for a best quality halogen bulb. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/special-notice-01-21-headlamp-conversions

For a 16 yr old fairly large capacity engine that's great mileage because it is a great engine. Looks good in black and those Pentas make it a future classic imo, headlamps can be prone to fogging and if it has been mapped as you suspect then have fun.

It's SORN and no MOT since last December despite the owner saying it's no longer needed because he's just bought a van. Clutch pedal to the floor and plenty else potentially wrong with it judging by it's MOT history. Owner wasn't that keen on me going over it and even getting it started...

Tnks CH, where could I get that specific VIN info from a Volvo forum?

Not Honda related but looking for a cheap estate to replace my beloved Accord when ULEZ is eventually extended and came across this. It's a diesel, Euro 4 yet according to the description and the TFL government website it is ULEZ compliant. How on earth is that possible when anything diesel...

It's not normal no, get the alternator checked or replace as maybe the voltage regulator has gone. Do the belt while you're at it.

Is mk7 same as mk8 Sayama? Looking at drwing below you could be right, insert on control arm looks to be long. http://honda.automotive-manuals.com/accord-2008-2012/manuals/000000000000049.HTML

Sorry changed my mind as I was looking at it originally on a phone, looks like the rubber bushing has torn and if it has think about replacing it.

It shouldn't really look like that but they can move, doesn't mean it's unsafe. Any suspension noises coming from that part of the car? If the rubber bushing is still tight and intact you won't get pulled on the MOT but get a lever and test the joint to see if there's any excess play or wear...
