I've had my (dutch) MOT today, I had to replace my HID's with Halogen lights because of stray light. Because of that I started google-ing some info about reflector headlights and HID lights. I've read some articles about the "new" H7 R or H7 RC HID's. H7 R and RC bulbs are made especially for...

May I ask, how you removed the resonator box? ^^

I did a little search on the internet and stumbled upon this topic from an US forum: http://www.hstuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3324. The topic states a few differences with "big brand" coolant manufacturers such as the use of organic corrosion inhibitors. Also it states that the Honda...

I used this Coolant from Eurol last year: http://www.eurol.com/en/37-products/1732-eurol-coolant-36degc-xl.html Haven't encountered any problems, and I don't know what the difference is with the Honda fluid.

Hello demian, I still have a fully working Bose head unit (casette) from a '99 CG9, I replaced it last year with my own radio, and since then it has been stored. Also, I removed my CD changer from the boot, it has always worked perfectly together with the head unit. It lacks the cable to...

Here in the Netherlands I can get the timing belt changed, including water pump, and the rolls for a fixed price of €596. Most repair centers charge about €45-50 per hour of labor. I will certainly not try to change it myself for lacking the knowledge and the tools to do this. :-)

Hi guys, After using the ATR steering wheel for a while, which is great :-) I really started to miss my cruise control. Sooooo I've changed back the original UGLY steering wheel. After browsing Ebay for a while I came across an Accord CG4 steering wheel which looks better then the original...

john_d I had practically the same symptoms. No error codes, sensors OK etc. After reading this topic: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/mobile-forum/8-Service-and-Repair-Questions-Answered-Here/48859-abs-does-not-work-on-1999-accord?limitstart=0, and a few pages from the Honda Service manual I've...

Hi vimpto, I recently replaced my oem steering wheel with an ATR wheel, and I broke my head over my beloved cruise control :P. As I saw your post I did some searchin on e-bay and wanted to ask if you could point me in the right direction for getting my cruise back. I found some controls over...

Hi Guys, Little update on my screaming alternator belt. After watching a video of testing the Alternator, I did some measurements with a multimeter to confirm a good working alternator. Apparantely the mechanic who checked and adjusted the belt deflection (as he says), torqued the wrong bolt of...

I would like to report that I have the same problem as the OP, but for me on the 2.0 liter. I'm trying to diagnose but I'm almost out of options. Here's the symptons: - Starting the car with the A/C off, sometimes in wet weather a little whine from the Alternator / AC belt (not very often). -...

Hello Nimboy, I don't know what causes the price difference but here in Holland I can get it for about 80 euro's from Hella. So the 150 pound looks like too expensive to me. Hope it helps

Hi Mark, That sounds like a beatifull price for your Accord! I would surely check: - Spark plugs (clean and check the gap between the electrodes) - Clean or install new air filter - Check and or replace distribution cap and rotor - Check and clean EGR Valve (can be done in 20 mins) and there...

Hi Dan, Please notice that if your car is equipped with SRS Side Airbags (in the seats) replacing those seats with this beautifull Recaro specimens will trigger an error in your SRS system and stops ALL airbags from deploying on impact. Though not part of your question I couldn't resist to warn...

Hi, At what point does it actually stop, about 1/3? If so, completely normal behaviour. Maybe you could post a picture just to be sure ;-)
