    2.2 cdti, 300k miles, clutch gone - worth fixing?

    Hi I used to have a 2.0 exec tourer until a few years ago which was a dream until unknown water ingress in the cabin led to mould, smell and sad face emojis all round. Recently, after my Civic IMA failed to MoT and seemed to be heading for the eternal scrap heap, I had a mad fit of nostalgia and...

    Snow chains

    Hi No handbook handy, so I thought I'd ask. Can't believe that a search found no results for "snow chains". Really? Anyhow, can I fit snow chains to the front 205x55R16 tyres on a '54 Honda Tourer? Anyone know? I'm ***uming that as I bought them 2nd hand with the above winter tyres/wheels, they...

    Replacement exhaust for 2.0 petrol tourer

    Need a new rear silencer and am slightly horrified that these are now just over £300. Luckily the rear box section on it's own is £60 delivered (Zombie Car Parts). But was curious about the following. Looking at the Lings parts pages. Reg number & VIN number selection aren't working currently...

    Accessory socket fuse

    Just spotted this, thanks for that info. I'll have another look. It wouldn't surprise me if the manual was wrong, as there are a few variants.

    Best Oil - 2004 2.4 Petrol

    Mwahab - brilliant - I can just picture it :D Knowing my luck, the bonnet would fall and there'd be legs flaying around. Good idea though, I'd be tempted to try that. Brian - I should have persevered last time and got it up on stands but... the day was drawing on and I just changed the oil (for...

    Best Oil - 2004 2.4 Petrol

    Did I miss a 2nd Gulf War or something. Has oil got very expensive in the last year or so? I swear that last time I bought some QX & Magnatec (one for cleaning and other for normal oil change), they were about £20-25. Not they're £35+. What happened? I'm sure I tried to get to the oil filter on...

    New headlights fitted

    Do all cars with plastic lens get this problem? I've never had a car suffer this particular issue before and it really p's me off. I've had it fail once or twice, then given a damn good clean followed by applying oil and all good. Not sure who told me to do that but they do seem to come up...

    Brake disc size 2004 Tourer 2.0

    Jan - I'll dig out my VIN later. Jon - as you say, best way is to measure. If I can't find a high pavement, I'll wait until the weekend and see if I can find my jack to double check. LPG is great but displacing the tools etc can be a pain. ECP are still doing an offer (up to 56% over Easter)...
