    Gurgling Noises (yes, really) From Dash

    Been a while since I checked the level, but was fine last time. Due some fresh coolant so will renew and bleed the system. Cheers for all the speedy replies! Dave

    Gurgling Noises (yes, really) From Dash

    Hi, have been experiencing this one for a while - all HVAC works fine but occasionally I get a gurgling noise like water with air bubbles in rushing through a pipe. It's most noticeable at around 19deg on the climate control. I am guessing there's air in the coolant but could it be refrigerant...

    K24a3 6-speed manual - what flywheel?

    Hi - apols for jumping straight in with a tech question, but it's bugging me.... My 2003 Type-S has the 2.4l K24a3 engine and the 6 speed manual gearbox - can anyone here tell me if Honda fitted this engine and gearbox combo with a dual mass flywheel? I'm on 120k miles now and just starting...
