I would highly recommend Rich at Performance Autoworks. A fair few miles from you but highly recommended for his expertise. Worth an email inquiry or phone call. Hes very good responding to both. http://www.performance-autoworks.co.uk/index.php

I have been using the SIP1600 battery booster pack for over 5 years now. Amazing bit of kit, I hardly charge it and just sits in the boot of the car and barely discharges. A friend of mine who used to work in the car recovery business, had one in his truck and recommended it to me at the time...

Sorry to hear about the theft @thedooor My s2000 got done on October last year. Was gutted and set me back around 700 quid to get it all fixed. I didnt want to go through insurance as they can be abit funny with s2k's considering their value, and they tend to try and put third party parts...

Sometimes it can be a tyres that can make a noise similar to bearing sounds. Did you spin the rear wheels as fast as you can whilst in the air?

Hi Guys Just noticed the other day that when I normally lock the car the indicators should flash, but just yesterday I noticed it didnt. The central locking locks as normal but the indicators didnt flash. Any ideas what it could be. Main battery or keyfob battery issues? Maybe Keyfob needs a...

Sorry to hear, is it the first video noise that is back? If it is, then its the starter. My s2000 suffers from the starter motor grind, its a common issue where when you go to start the engine, the bendix gear pops out and attaches itself to the teeth of the flywheel and rotates the engine to...

Glad fahad managed to isolate the issue for you. Must be relieved :) Never really had any trouble with sticking turbo vanes or turbo issues on my ICTDI. I have been running Vpower diesel all its life (8 years) and oil service every 6000 miles. Not sure if that has helped as preventative...

This is very interesting. Always been tempted to run normal standard boggo diesel as the price differences is tempting especially covering 2000 miles a month (pre covid days), but i have always chosen to use vpower diesel apart from a handful of times when vpower wasn't available and the car...

@bobfish45 Hi bob Heres that thread on repairing the HFT if your interested. Makes interesting reading http://acura-hfl-bluetooth-module-repair.blogspot.com/2015/10/how-to-repair-hfl-bluetooth-module-for.html

The Bluetooth module on the 7th gen accords were always a known issue. The FPGA chip in these tend to unsolder itself over the years as they run pretty warm when in use and being near the vents it doesn't help in the winter either. Over time the ball grid balls within the FPGA become brittle...

Do you mean torque converter?

The correct grade for the N22 is 0w 30. There have been issues in the past for timing chains getting damaged (breaking) due to the oil grade being incorrect. From reading hundreds of threads over the years, I recall that the dealers use the 5w 30 oil as it is cheaper for them to buy. I...

Might be your clutch that is worn. When you rev hard does it slip? i.e rev hang?

The fuel filter topic of the N22 ictdi engine has been covered immensely over the years. Genuine for the fuel filter is always 100% recommended, it does seem that the N22 engine has very tight tolerance within its software and can cause MIL lights and poor running of the engine if a genuine...

I would highly recommend Rich at Performance Autoworks. http://www.performance-autoworks.co.uk/index.php Very thorough and his work is spot on. I travel there to him from North London. Ive always used him for tough labour intensive work. He has worked on my previous 1999 Honda 2.2 vti, my...

Great News, glad you managed to repair it yourself. Blueprint is a good brand.

Cheers Guys

Hi Guys, It seems genuine Honda air filters for the Accord ICTDI engines are sky rocketing in price recently. Ive always used genuine but now looking at alternatives. I know the fuel filter must always be genuine, but is using an third party air filter ok to use? I am looking at the Blue...

I am ***uming you have the saloon by the your description. I have changed my rear bearing on my 2006 Accord due to changing a naff sensor and have used this bearing from this supplier. (the reason for changing the bearing was a chain of events which led to a premature failure of the bearing)...

Do you mean your car already has cruis control and you want to fit a system where it senses the car in front and adjusts its speed accorldingly? Or do you want to fit cruise control to an accord where it never had one from the factory? This thread might be useful...
