I got it sorted just need some brute force and persuasion with some pliers

Thanks Andy, got the tool and it retracted. Now I'm stuck at the handbrake... how do I remove it from the caliper? I've taken out the small C clip piece but have no idea on what to do next I cant get the end of the cable off the hook

Yeah it moves out and does not rotate. So do I need a proper tool that also presses and rotates at the same time I thought it just needed to be rotated. Also for those that know how far in it should be I take it when the video stops and the last image shows how far out the piston is that I...

I need help guys... http://youtu.be/i9XJh6xEmLQ I can't seem to get the piston to retract any further and doing a test fit there won't be enough room for pads and rotor What am I doing wrong?

I'm in Northern Ireland so the offer is not suitable. I am about to buy a 2005 CR-V cdti manifold and it only has 2 mounting points for the heat shield and is a cast unit. Is this different to the revised one that gets put on? Or could this car have had it replaced once upon a time?

I'm still waiting to hear back from Honda. They wanted a copy of my service history. F6HAD you're correct this should have been a recall. If no engines left the factory and this was a revised part that means the originals were a flawed design. I work in warranty and we dealt with a recall on a...

Did you get any further with this? I'm in the process of an official complaint. Mine is an 07 with 162k but was taken to Honda for 90% of its servicing. My argument is that it should have been picked up before now as I'm the new owner and it's possible the previous owner didn't know what was...

booked in on Friday for my inspection. no oil pooling round the injectors but no drop in economy or exhaust blowout sound. Basically the car has had a 95% Honda service history so just because I'm the new owner and noticed the exhaust smell and decided to get it sorted, the problem was...

Dont know off hand but I got mine on eBay from the USA. worked out £69 in TOTAL to get them (purchase price, postage and customs)

Hi Jon, Thanks. The manifold has a 3 bolt heat shield. Was there 2 different '3 bolt' manifolds. I will check under the engine cover ASAP. The Honda dealer who did all the servicing is no longer a Honda dealer (now KIA) and all they did was stamp the service book. Ive no indication as to what...

HI folks, new owner here. 07 Ex with 162k, getting the exhaust fumes when stationary. I don't have any noticible sound like a blow out so i'm thinking it might be a leaking injector seal or EGR valve? My question would be - do ALL manifolds crack or would it be possible to have one last?
