Cheers OP, been meaning to do this for a while as mine has been progressively worse until a week or so ago when it completely stopped. Finally made some time, read your instructions and went to it. Easy to follow with the pics, cleaned the lens and the swab came off with dirt on it...

Getting it to the dealer's is not so easy when you can't actually start the car. Breakdown cover doesn't want to know as it's at home and I've got no 'at home' cover. Going to have to arrange a 'recovery' to the dealers once Ive finished work on monday (as they are shut from lunchtime today...

Anyone able to help here My 2005 diesel has kindly decided to stop reading BOTH of my keys in the immobiliser. The fobs still work and lock/unlock as normal, but put key into ignition and turn on the green key light just flashes (and obviously the car wont fire) I used the car in the daytime...

Rhonda had it's MOT on Friday, and to my relief it sailed straight through without so much as an advisory.

Quick question regards the xcarlink usb.....is there a maximum number of folders that it can read, I think I remember reading that it can only handle 99 files per folder, but just how many folders ?? Cheers

Rhonda went through it's service today, with no problems highlighted. I had the fuel filter changed in a bid to clear the hesitating problem that plagues these cars......and sure enough, the problem seems to have vanished and the revs pull right through to the red line cleanly. They also...

Seeing as the car is now overdue on the 137.5k mille service I have booked it in at my local Honda dealer Going in for the standard Honda 12 (minor) service, but also going for the fuel filter change which should hopefully erradicate the usual low pressure fuel drop on hard acceleration.

The replacement headlight is from a breakers and is a genuine Honda part.

Seeing as we've had nice weather today down here on the South coast, I thought I'd crack on with the headlight replacement. Starting point... Close up... I followed the guide for removing the headlight in the DIY forum, really simple. After the operation.... When I finished I...

Well, things have been ticking along nicely, but I haven't crossed any of the jobs off the list yet. Had the car long enough now to have a proper idea of fuel consumption now too. Around town I get 38mpg, long motorway runs 55mpg, and long runs towing my bike trailer I get 45mpg. I was on...

First job done today.... Following this guide http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/1041-accord-handbrake-adjustment/ I adjusted the handbrake Very easy job to do, and although the cable pull is now tighter with less travel, I feel that the handbrake is not as keen as it should be. Will have...

My drivers side headlight unit (pre facelift saloon) resembles a goldfish bowl on occasions, so I want to replace it. I have seen plenty on certain site from breakers, but I can't guarantee that they won't suffer the same fault. I have found something from a seller that is a new unit for a...

I'm going to be keep this thread going with updates and ramblings about my car. First off, a bit about me.... I've done the whole car thing when I was younger, having had hot hatches, moved on to silly quick even hotter hatches, sports cars and then finally graduated onto 2 wheels for the...
