I seem to remember reading somewhere that 14.2V is the minimum it should be charging at, or have I got it wrong?

Hello If you have one of these cars (2.4 petrol, 2006, saloon, FL.) what voltage reading do you have at the battery terminals when the car is running? Thanks

Just an update:- Replaced it with a Yuassa battery. £60. Watch out for the nut on the VE+ terminal, you will need a socket with an extension to access it. I attached an old battery so that I didn't loose any of the settings. Thanks for your help.

Will the car lose any codes, memory, etc when the battery is disconnected?

Good point. Have already been through that, and the bluetooth unit has been disconnected for over 12 months. I must admit the voice commands are great for impressing the passengers, and i do miss that feature.

Yes, have tried that, tna. It's got to the point where if I leave it for 5 days then it's 50/50 whether it will start or not. So doesn't require changing immediately. Is it possible to top up the battery, even thou they are "maintenance free"? (its a genuine Honda battery)

Obviously, nnew battery needs to be 12V. May seem like a daft question, but does it matter if these figures are different on the new battery? 48Ah 420A CCA (EN)

Hello Looks like the battery is having difficulty holding a charge, so am looking to replace it. current Honda battery says :- 12V - 48Ah 420A CCA (EN) Can I just get any 12v battery with the same rating and swap it out (same size obviously). Anything to watch out for? or tips & tricks Thanks

I thought it was $5 (five) dollars PS I have ADAS on my car. The Adaptive Cruise won't work before 20mph, and I want to change that parameter from 20 to 1 or 5mph. The Lane Keep ***ist won't work below 46mph, and I want to change that parameter to say 25 to 30mph.

Evening Has anyone used this software (on the smartphone) to change any of the parameters for the main car computer or the computer that controls the automatic gearbox parameters? Thanks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVwkVLX_8D8&t=320s

I own a 2.4 saloon, just over 100K miles on the clock, but unfortunately for you I don't want to sell it. It's the most reliable car I've ever owned.

I was considering a Hyundai DCT, but not sure about it now.

Rubbery material and elastic band

Does the 9th generation Accord petrol come in an estate version. I've never seen any photos of it.

Hello This isn't necessarily about Honda parts, but a general question Some of the newer cars have DCT gearboxes. Reading about them, they seem to be basically 2 manual gearboxes in one housing. Therefore, the 2 clutches. There is no manual clutch pedal next to the brake pedal. The gear shifts...

anyone with photos?

sometimes the balancing weights drop off the wheel (especially the glue type). It happened to me while I was at Quick-fitup. As the chap was rolling the tyre to the car (after balancing) one of the weight fell off. He didn't even know it had, and i had to make him do it all again. Worth double...

Anyone have a 2.4 petrol saloon (Facelift). If so, please provide a photo of the cap & seal (top and bottom). Thanks. That rubber seal seems like it should be attached to the underside of the cap. So not sure why it has detached from the underside of the cap. (although Jan Accord's explanation...

no leaks & i'm not loosing any fluid, as i marked the fluid level 12 months ago. It seems like that rubber seal should be attached to the underside of that cap. I've changed the engine oil and filter on my car many times.

LOL If you have read all the posts, it's not about competence, it's about where that rubber seal should be under normal circumstances, i.e attached to the underside of the cap, or detached from the cap. Do you have the same car? (2.4 petrol Facelift). If so, please provide a photo of the cap &...
