    2010 diesel auto

    Auto diesel won't be as economical as manual. Fahad at premier tuning knows all about remapping diesel accords.

    Wheel Size/comfort

    Yeah XL low profile tyres with lowered suspension(from factory) is real harsh on the roads. Mine is 2.4 type s saloon. If you do go to 17s you are going to sacrifice some comfort, maybe a lot maybe a little. Also made mistake in earlier post, saloon front brakes are 300mm and rear are 260mm...

    Wheel Size/comfort

    Thanks for letting me know. Tbh I really liked the 17s at the beginning and even now on the twisty roads, handling and grip is fantastic I've never slipped(apart from on ice lol). But most of the time I want to just have a relaxing drive and the harshness is really getting to me. I'm ok with...

    Wheel Size/comfort

    I have a type s saloon and brakes discs are 300mm front and 282mm rear. So if yours are the same then 16 inch wheels should fit on mine too. Load rating for mine is 94. I might just get 205 55 R17 instead of changing the wheels. This will change the speedo slightly by 2mph which is ok really

    Wheel Size/comfort

    I've checked on line 55 profile is possible on 17s but all I'm finding are XL tyres which I don't want. My previous accord was on 16s and ride was very comfortable.

    Wheel Size/comfort

    Thanks. So the 16 inch wheels should fit on the Accord comfortably? because the caliper looks quite close to the wheel already and I'm worried that the 16 inch alloy won't fit. I've found plenty of 16inch civic alloys on eBay. Also I was trying to avoid XL tyres because I think they are too...

    Going from 205/55 to 205/60

    You can find tyre speedo calculator on google. Its very helpful. It shows the difference in speed.

    Wheel Size/comfort

    Hi. So I have 2.4 type S. Absolutely love the car but recently I'm finding the ride too harsh and too much road feel through the steering wheel on rough roads. Wheels are standard 17inch with Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 2 225/45/17 XL tyres. So I've been thinking to get 205/55/17 tyres...

    VSA completely disabled???

    Dashboard has no Christmas lights on. Service is coming up in a few months, so I'll ask my mechanic to do a diagnostic check. I just thought if VSA had an issue it would affect ABS too.

    VSA completely disabled???

    A few months ago the very annoying ABS and VSA illuminated on the dash so I got it diagnosed, it was a faulty rear sensor. I bought one off eBay, mechanic fitted it and cleared the codes so ABS and VSA light went off. Since then only the ABS light appears when switching car on, no VSA even if I...

    Buying a 2.4 Type S ?!

    Daaaamn, that is very expensive for mk7 Accord. Unless you are ok with paying that much or maybe you should look for something else. Civic? Add a turbo :D

    Buying a 2.4 Type S ?!

    Well a 15 year old car is possibly going to have more issues, rust, suspension, ball joints and might even need a new clutch, exhaust etc. Unless it has been looked after. Maybe look for a mk8 Accord, I believe they started in 2008. Here in the UK I found it extremely difficult to find a good...

    Buying a 2.4 Type S ?!

    Haha didn't know you were in Bulgaria:D. Anyway, they are solid cars. Mileage is not really an issue on these engines. 100,000 is nothing, life is just starting :) look around more and hopefully you find a good one.

    Buying a 2.4 Type S ?!

    I'm 26 yrs old too. I bought a 2005 Accord 2.4 type s manual in July mileage was just above 49,000, absolutely love it. Only problem is ride is quite harsh on uneven surfaces. Other than that car is perfect. I got an aux fitted too. I get around 370 miles till the empty light comes on, I can...

    Tuning and remap

    Hi. I'm new to this site. I had a 2.0 accord that I bought for £500(emergency buy after my corsa's timing chain snapped lol) I instantly fell in love with the accord :). And I said I will never buy a diesel again (I had too many issues with my diesel Corsa). I kept it for over 2 yrs and didn't...
