Thanks for all the replies. Already changed fuel filter for OEM and done full service last week. A non honda garage fitted the rack. Sonething strange happened this morning. Started the engine, went to move and it stalled. Restarted and engine light came on and auto choke at 1200 rpms came on...

Hi Simon, thanks for the reply. Its a Diesel mate. I went to Honda for a diagnostic, no fault codes, but they said a possible small hole in Manifold, although no signs of soot/dirt around that area. Car feels horrible to drive mate, especially on motorway. What damage can this cause driving it...

Ok thanks fahad. Any chance you'll be down in London anytime soon?? :)

Hi Fahad thanks for the reply. Do you think it sounds like the manifold has cracked? Would this misfiring problem I'm getting relate to the cracked manifold? Cheers

Hi all, i think my manifold is also split, its 2008 getting fuel smell only in the mornings on cold start and losing power or like a misfiring when changing gear. I also notifce the sound of the engine gets very noisey like a clattering sound. I've just hit 130k, but the car is 7 years old now...

Hi all, I've just spent **** loads of money on changing the steering rack, all front suspension parts (ball joints, anti-roll, tie rods, ect) and i now have another problem. I'm very close to ditching this car for another as its becoming a headache. I posted this problem in another thread, but...

No not that one, you need the O-Ring spray, this one below ...

Sorted the problem, he didnt use honda power steering fluid. Got another problem now, car is jerking when i change gear and accelerate, like a misfiring. Took it to Honda, no fault codes on the computer diagnostic, they said possibly flywheel or hole in exhaust manifold, but when then checked...

No clicks here yet mate, i'm a cabbie too !

It seems this pull to the left is a very common problem on the 7th gen accords. I've had mine since 2012 and its always pulled to the left. First thing i did was to get rid of the low profile tyres, thats if you have 17" alloys. So you go from 225/45/17 to 225/50/17 XL's and that helped so much...

I had exactly the same problem recently, changed the steering rack, noise gone! get your mechanic to have a proper check. Rack was pricey though, £200 not inc. labour.

Hi all, I was getting this knocking sound from behind the foot pedals, especially behind the brake pedal which slowly started to get worse. I checked the net for similar symptoms and many people changed the ball joints and the sound disappeared. So I took it to my local garage, and changed both...

Glad you got it sorted after all this time Shaun. I think you'll find that the grease will last a while, just try not to over spray it! Take it easy. Serg :)

Hi Shaun, Everything is still fine here mate, no clicking, clutch is smooth as ever. If your worried about your seals, just dont over spray it, i literally just did a few sprays with the clutch pedal right down, then pumped it a few times. Clicking has gone, instantly! Hope this helps.

Ok the above spray has done the trick and the clutch feels much smoother, biting point has improved also. Lets see how long it goes on for. Will report back if it returns. I attached the long nozzle to the spray, pushed the clutch down and spray around the hole area, there was also another...

the Spray comes with a nozzle which you attach to the spray Peter. Wonder what the free gift will be.... :blink: Instructions say to spray and leave for 20-30 minutes to allow the lubrication to settle. I would spray some in and pump the clutch a few times to let it spread, leave for half hour...

I never had any luck with this Shaun, sorry i never got back, i'm also a private hire cabby, been very busy clicking about lol I'm on 120k now and i've been using the plastic grease spray my mechanic gave me, but that finished and i never got the name off him. Anyway, the clicking is back, but...

this is becoming a major worry now, so i'm going to book the car into honda for a diagnosis, instead of just guessing and throwing money away.

Cheers for the reply Wookie. As i mentioned in a previous post, i sm feeling a vibration also from the right wheel when i turn left which made me believe the problem was with the right side shaft, thats why i changed that side. But like you said it could well be the other side, but i dont know...
