Ok Crown_bg - i'll give it a go - hope I don't upset any electrics. Thanks for your help. Chesjak

Hi crown_bg Thanks for your reply. The only reason I say that is where the relay is, is because when the headlight flasher is activated on the steering wheel I can hear and feel a relay where I said it was. It doesn't stick all the time. So when you say "I won't disturb anything" do you mean...

Does anyone know. I can't be the only one with this prob surely. Regards Chesjak

Hi Every so often when I flash the headlights they stay on. I have traced the problem (I think) to the solenoid situated in the same box as the fuses under the bonnet. It is actually under the fuses and to get at it as far as I can see, you have to undo two electrical connections at one end...

Hi Does anyone know if the paint on the Accord has a code for it and if so where is it. I have looked under the bonnet but can't seem to see anything that related to it. Regards

Ureka!!!!!! Goodluckmonkey, Out of desparation I tried driving off again and this time I went a bit further. The lights went off after couple hundred meters. I was starting to think I was going to have to spend £178 on a sensor from Honda Time to keep fingers crossed. Thanks for your help...

Hi Goodluckmonkey Thanks for your reply. No, I drove forward a few feet but the lights stay on. I bought a new wheel sensor via Ebay which looks exactly the same as the Honda part that I took off. The seller which is a bonafide company say that it fits the car. I have also tried another one...

Hi I have just replaced the top and bottom ball joints with the valuable help of Goodluckmonkey and I also had to replace the VSA/ABS sensor as well. I have put all back together including the Sensor but upon starting the car, all three warning lights stay on. The VSA, ABS and the triangular...

Thanks for all your help Goodluckmonkey I after a lot of hassle I got it all back together yesterday. The bolt holding the sensor in decided to shear off so I had to drill that out and re-thread. Only one problem, now that I have replaced the actual sensor and connected it back up, when I...

Hi Goodluckmonkey Have just got the bits today. I decided to do both while I was at it. I bought a couple of Bilstein Joints. They look pretty substantial. It's amazing just how slack they were. You don't realise it until you compared to the new ones. The ABS cover ring you have mentioned...

Doesn't it have to have a castellated nut and split pin as per the original. Not sure if I would like to fit the nyloc. Would it be safe?

Cheers Goodluckmonkey I have had a look at Eurocarparts and they show a Q-Drive ball joint for £20.49 but I do not think this is the right one as it shows an ordinary locking nut not a castilated nut on it. The other aftermarket ball joints are priced at £249 which to me suggests that it is...

Hi GoodLuckMonkey Thanks for your quick reply. Very helpful Just exactly how much heat? - Will a gas diy blowlamp be sufficient? Regards

Hi Guys I need to replace the lower ball joint on my Honda Accord 2005 diesel. I have seen a couple of sites in the USA that sell these separately instead of having to buy the whole arm with it in which is expensive. Has anyone changed these before? Do they come out of the arm or not? Any...

Hi Guys Can anyone help me please. I am overhauling one of my drive shafts and need to use some more grease inside the boots on the bearings. What type of grease is required? Regards

never mind. That's a shame. Mike doesn't seem to be around any more.

Hi Guys I am trying to contact Mike Speller. I think it was you Mike who sold me a couple of bits back in the early part of the year when you were breaking your old Accord. I was replacing my drive shafts the other day and noticed that the lower Engine mount believe it or not is totally...

Hi Guys Thanks for your replies. I tried for a long time to get this driveshaft in and it would not go so I left it for a while and went and had a cup of coffee and posted this thread. Went back and tried again and this time it went in without any problems at all. All I can ***ume is that...

Hi Guys I have decided to replace my drive shafts on the i-CTDI Driver's side went in easily but having a problem with the passenger side. It will not seat all the way in. Only just locating on the spline inside the gearbox. I seem to be having a problem with the circlip. When I put the...
