    Clutch Pedal Creaking/Clicking Fix

    I tried to do mine, but couldn't get the grease through the tube! Filled the syringe, but couldn't push the plunger past a certain point. I'll try shortening the tube & try again, I've located where it needs to go & can reach it with a bit of twisting.

    Parking sensors (Ebay)

    I have the dolphin ones myself - the local dealer wanted around £600 to fit a Oem set. I've been pleased with them & I got the micro black sensors, which look pretty good against my black paint.

    Do I really need a diesel?

    I had the same decision to make myself - I'd looked at the diesel, but had one for a day and only got 42mpg touring so the petrol looked a better bet. I'd been looking at the 2.4 auto executive, but 20mpg around town was the official figure. The old autocar review of the 2.0 shows a 0-60 of 8...

    Clutch Pedal Creaking/Clicking Fix

    Thanks for this, I've had the same issue. The dealer greased it and it lasted for a few weeks but the creak is back. I've ordered some grease from eBay, plus I found a syringes with tube on there as well: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160756664462

    Saloon boot locking

    Saloon boot locking

    I have an issue with the locking & the boot: If I unlock the boot using the boot button on the remote it unlocks & the other doors stay locked, but if I unlock all the doors & then open only the boot the other doors lock themselves after a delay. If I unlock all the doors, then open one, the...

    Fixing the armrest

    Just fitted mine, yes it's a very easy fix - all the screws are obvious and the parts easily come apart.

    Fixing the armrest

    Thanks, that's great to hear - the two small parts I'd ordered from Lings cost about as much in postage as the parts did!

    Fixing the armrest

    I'm hoping to try at the weekend - from the link above it looks like you put a screwdriver into the front of the sliding part to remove it, then there are 4 screws underneath to reach the broken catch.

    Any good independent garages in the Croydon/Surrey area?

    It was under £35 - if you have the 7th gen without sat nav it's fairly straightforward as they just remove the cubby box & the plug is underneath. If you have sat nav it takes longer as the plug is on the back of the radio instead and they need to spend longer taking the dash apart.

    Fixing the armrest

    Yes, you can order individual parts - with the part number you need it should be possible to get it from HH, or maybe your local dealer too & avoid any postage charges. On mine it was #27 that went, the tab for the thin top tray.

    Fixing the armrest

    I got mine from Lings, they seem to do almost every part for the cars: http://www.hondaoriginalparts.com/honda_car_parts_catalogue_C01.php It's a good site, put in your details and you get the diagrams for the parts - I picked up a rubber pad for my boot that was broken too. Some parts are...

    Fixing the armrest

    Thanks, that's great - id wondered how to get the top off to access the inside

    Fixing the armrest

    How do you dismantle the centre armrest top? One of the front catches has broken on mine (the one that is for the coin tray lid) - I've got the new part but can't see how to fit it. Thanks

    Exhaust Tip

    On mine there's a bolt underneath to loosen, mines rusted quite well though.
