Regarding my recent Accord saloon purchase, can anyone tell me where to obtain boot lid torsion springs, thank you, Rod.

I have just bought a 2009 petrol Accord for my wife. It's a nice car but bluetooth is not working. Are there any common faults with bluetooth on this model? Thanks chaps, Rod.

Thanks Fahad, I'll post when all is successfully completed, (probably by which time it won't be necessary).

Can anyone direct me as to the location of the a/c pressure switches on my 2.2 tourer? Many thanks, Rod.

I should think that there's nothing wrong with the product and they have reimbursed me, so, apart from the inconvenience of fitting removing etc I wouldn't say anything other than I have been unlucky.

Update, I can't take off the faulty Autodoc a/c compressor until I have a replacement, so I removed the clutch from my old compressor and ordered a replacement clutch from an ebay supplier, guess what? WRONG!!! it seems impossible to obtain the correct part and I am currently at my wits end...

I will be evacuating the gas Fahad, will keep you posted, thank you.

Thanks Fahad, no pipe is not cold, but a surprise happening on Wednesday evening. Whilst driving to a fishing venue, smoke from under the bonnet! Had a look and the new compressor had seized !!! I switched off a/c and it was ok to drive home and I am in contact with Autodoc as to a solution. I...

Last year my a/c was fine, this year my compressor failed. So, new compressor and condenser fitted, professionally gassed up, but, no cold air ! Compressor cutting in and out as it should, system full of gas, fans working fine but no cold air, can anyone suggest next step ? Thanks chaps.

I've just had same problem, finally sorted at Autodoc with an Airstal compressor £282, there are a few on ebay but they all seem different to mine. Did you get yours fixed?

If it was mine, I would ,1 cut off the bracket and weld it to the new strut, but as you don't have the facility, take both struts to a machining shop and ask them to weld the old bracket to the new strut making sure to replicate the exact position.

They are h7 Richard and, bearing in mind the age of the car, they may have been deemed efficient 15 years ago, to be fair the Audis that I used to drive were no better, same bulb set up. I don't use my main beam much at all only on country roads where a longer light may be beneficial when...

Yes, at the moment I have Osram nightbreakers in, no better than standard. It must be that the main beams are not anything other than a broad reflector type lens with no concentrated beam, it just gets lost in space!!!

Hello, the xenon dip beam on my tourer is decent, I know I can't do much with the pathetic main beam, and was wondering if anyone has successfully added supplementary spots for main beam support?

It was the top part of the bolt that sheared Fahad, the thicker part that sits in the head was intact.
