I'm 6ft6/16 Stone find the seats really comfy on long distance commutes, over 4 years i put 80k miles commuting on my sport. I've got mine pumped down as low as they go to the floor (lever on the side of the chair), so the bottom of the seat inclines and the back is quite a bit from upright. I...

Yep, if the police think your breaking the law, no MOT is going to save you. It's only a snapshot in the year when the car was road worthy. 364 other days where an illegal set of lights could be fitted. ;)

This makes for some interesting reading. http://www2.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roadsafety/drs/hidheadlamps.html In summary it is not permitted to convert an existing halogen headlamp unit for use with HID bulbs. The entire headlamp unit must be replaced with one designed and approved for use with HID...

I should probably add that they are replacing the brake pad for free and are not charging me labor as it's been in before for this an was not spotted.

Had my calipers cleaned, disc and pads replaced by the dealer last week under honda happiness as the calipers had seized. Brakes seized on the motorway again on sunday. Cooked a wheel and a tyre. Back into dealers today, appears i have an intermittent issue with a caliper, rods are pitted...

It's a 54 plate, not sure if it's a facelift or not. Quite glad it doesn't have it, it just gets in the way.

:) i know where it should be, i just don't have one!

I feel that accord is pretty decent in the snow, you just have to be aware that it is a big car and quite front heavy, so you need to be carefull pulling out of junctions, taking roundabouts etc. You will struggle if your running summer tyres. I'd rather be in my accord than any of the abandoned...

No thats all the report said, it's a grommet in the near side bulkhead footwell, so i ***ume its a grommet in the body work under the door or in the floor. I thought it might be where the body kit skirts attached or nearby. Might be worth getting a hose on the underside and around the bottom of...

No probs :)

Maybe some seizing calipers? Any of your wheels feeling hot after a drive?

Just to let you all know, following some torrential rain, some deliberate puddle splashing etc over the last week. Nice dry carpet, the fix is good.

I've never had falkens, but the Nexen tyres were certainly the best "budget" tyres i fitted, and i've had some horrible ones before, the handling on really nasty budget tyres is nothing short of dangerous. The accord definitley appreciates some decent tyres. Currently runnning Pirelli p6000...

I've also ran on the nexen n6000s and they were were really good. Definitley recommend them :)

Another possible area which is worth getting checked where water inside the footwells is concerned is the grommet(s) on the bulkhead/footwell. My car has just come back from the honda dealers who took 2 days to find that the water in my rear passenger foot well was coming from a bad grommet in...

Report "Check for water ingress from rear seat ares, resealed grommet at NS bulkhead/footwell, test ok" Total Bill forDiagnosis, fix, new rear discs and shoes and 2 new light bulbs £398 inc Vat N/S/R top ball Joint on order, fitting on tuesday £187 Could have been worse, seeing as they spent...

They have found a leak. It's apparently a rubber grommet. On the dealer waiting on a full report. More later.

Well they've been working on it for 2 days... and have found nothing. I did notice something weird on one of my door seals and i'm wondering maybe if by moving it, i sorted the problem. If you open your door. look at the seal on the door right at the bottom, is it sagging in the middle of the...

Day 2: Cant find any leak "are you sure you didnt leave the window open", yes im sure, everything else is dry, wouldn't you think if i left the windows open the seats would be soaking too? I've referred them to the door membrane... check it please. BUT your back brakes are seized, down to the...

Day 1 Garage Update : "Your car is very wet inside, were trying to dry it out so we can trace the leak, it is quite bad".... We'll need to run over into tomorrow, hold on to the courstesy car. Cool, at least we've established there is a leak and it's indoors getting dried out. Hopefully if its...
