Thanks.

Just done my second oil change following your fabulous guides and this is next as I got the car around 134,000 and now it is on 168,000. My query is that I thought that I had read about using a bit of Wynn's standard engine oil flush in the gearbox for a very short while (up to a couple of...

Thanks, that was why I was rat worried as my brother has now scrapped the car they invaded. Hasn't recurred so can only wait and see.

09 Plate Mk VIII 2.2 Diesel i-DTEC Tourer EX - EGR and DPF present. Owned since February 2022 and no remap by me. On two consecutive occasions engine stopped within five minutes of starting journey then restarted immediately with key. Made only two changes after second occurrence and it has...

I only want to tighten it a bit so 7-8 clicks stops the car from rolling. 156k miles. Read all the threads and responses (here and elsewhere) about difficulties getting under the armrest console or doing it through the adjuster access hole with jacked wheels and have watched videos on both...

I have had similar issue with clutch but intermittent and unpredictable; sometimes seems to be after ignition or any extended idle that the bite point is suddenly very harsh causing a possible stall. ABS unit has been completely rebuilt so brakes drained and new fluid on reinstallation but has...

Same issue. No gas but mobile AC technician pressurised system and we saw a current across the system (pressure switch therefore good) but still no clutch engagement. Is it possible to check relays with a multimeter? If so, how, please? I have read of the relay swap test before and my clutch...

Hi, I love my Mk8 09 Accord Tourer i-DTEC EX. No spare wheel. I like the Premium Audio but could be a tad louder for me. Just hit 150,000 miles. The plastic front and rear bumpers start to spot delaminate after this amount of time, looks like peeling skin. Only cosmetic and certainly not...

I thought similar considering location but thanks for saying. I also found that clips website and can buy some I need for other minor maintenance. I will update here what I find on the resin grommet and how I get on when I actually address the repair. Tempted to just try Bluetac!

These are the graphics ***ociated with the sections above.

This is outstandingly helpful, thank you very much. I read just removing the rear quarter pillar trim (at step four, after the previous steps!) requires SRS inspection and some replacement of a sacrificial grommet, which will be fun sourcing. CW3,2009( TL19E00J26273413801KDAT00 ) Rear...

Advice needed, please. i-DTEC EX tourer model with Premium (hah!) Audio System. I want to replace a crackly speaker and need to know how to get the nearside rear (boot) pillar trim off, please. I've seen the speaker on a bracket on spares photos (speaker part EAS8PM193E - 4 ohm 15 watts), I...

This is fixed now, my time was suddenly correct having been off since purchase in January. BST adjustment in the usual menu. Honda Accord 2.2 i-DTEC EX Tourer 5dr (08 - 09)
