    2012 Euro Accord CW2, 215/55 r17 98V anyone??

    In my opinion i would stick to what Honda recommended for the wheels fitted ie: your 18's or the correct tyres for the 17's as at the end of the day it's these small bits of rubber stopping you falling off the road or worse a crash, then the insurance may be an issue of none standard wheel/ tyre...

    Led Headlights.

    Having just spent a few hours changing yet another set of dipped beam H1 bulbs, as most know this is a right pain. Bumper off seems to be the preferred wisdom! Has anyone fitted LED H1 bulbs to their Accord Mk8 similar to these in design...

    Clutch Master Cylinder - Accord 2009 2.2 i-dtec type s Saloon

    Hi. Mine is the same with cracking springs, every couple of months or so I just rub some more grease into the spring where it joins the pedal on both sides-seems to work ok for a while. I believe the pedal on the CRV has plastic bushes where the spring enters the pedal. This may be of help to...

    Wheel Bearing noise

    Guys. Just an update. Obviously the O/S was not at fault. So had a really good listen to the near side could just about make out a very very slight bit of noise. Long story short I replaced that bearing with the one I had previously removed. While it only made the smallest amount of noise and...

    Which specs and models of 8th generation accord receive dual piston front brake calipers for front brakes.

    @Bounder. The rear brakes on the Accord Tourer are Drum and disk. In that the handbrake acts on two shoes in a drum configuration, while the foot brake acts on the disk part of the drum as a normal caliper disk arrangement. The saloon has normal disk brakes and the handbrake acts through the...

    Fitting Double din into CU3 Accord

    From what I have read on a now defunct Honda website fitting similar into an Accord fitted with Premium audio can be very problematical as far as wiring harnesses are concerned, as there is a separate amp in the boot area, and the speakers are of a different impedance to normal speakers. But...

    Bearing obtained from motor factors, a Bilstein-Febi, which is a perfect match for the Honda item by cross reference the part numbers (42200-TLO-G51 with Lings) and is printed on the box see picture. Fitted with no issue all in about 45min. However the bearing rumble is still there while not so...

    Wheel Bearing noise

    The tires were new earlier this year and have done about 2k miles and they were my first thought, and what I can determine it is the rear off side. Yes I did spin as fast as possible while jacked up.
