I have an SE without fog lamps. Question 1) does anyone know if the wiring exists behind the blanking plates ? 2) does anyone have an OEM pair for sale ?

Hi, yes I have been looking into this in the past day or so, and indeed you are correct. There is no specification in the handbook, and a search on the internet likewise, except you see phrases like "Use only correct Honda PS fluid otherwise you may damage the system" or in the book "Use of...

I suspect it was nothing to do with the fluid. I have used a ubiquitous power steering fluid after my problem 6 months ago, and its fine. There is a lot of marketing nonsense about oils and fluids - its all about trying to get you to spend more. As long as the oil is to the correct...

Check your fluid and for leaks. When I bought my present accord, I got it home and my pump was making a terrible noise when turning the steering wheel. I checked the level and it was down. Topped up and fine again, but I was having to top up every day to a bad leak. Local garage sorted it. It...

Almost certainly the head gasket

I believe in Honda, the car almighty, maker of transport on earth, and in his son the Accord, who was invented of the virgin Honda, suffered under Chevy **** box, was scrapped and descended into Ford. On the third day rose again from the scarp yard. Ascended into the VTEC, and sits upon the...

I too thank you for the information. I concur that my headlights are a bit weak, and quite frankly the main beam does very little extra. So you recommend Philips xtreme . I will look into them. Thanks

Well it really is an excellent guide. But dear me what a job just to replace a bulb. The crack in the surround happened to me. Not sure i want to bother, thought it might be a 5 min job! It seems that a bulb replacement in the AC unit is a common problem. Thanks

Oh thanks exec. Will have a look.

Well today I thought I would get the AC control unit out and replace the bulb. So how does it come out? Tried prising it out with screwdriver. No Tried prising dash panel surround out - seemed to move. Woops corner came out and nearly brokeoff Then discovered two screws at top of binnicle...

Dont waste your money

Thanks will have a look this afternoon Pedro

Hi Pedro thanks for the info Are they bulbs or LED's ? How many are there Do you need special tools to remove the unit or does it just slide out with the help of a screwdriver?

I have a couple of lamps out on the AC control unit and Radio. Can you get new ones and is it easy to replace them. Its a pain at night not being able to see the LCD display. Also is anyone breaking a car? I could do with a rear parcel shelf since the retractable cords are broken and are tied...

This sounds good Jon. A bit pricey though, £14. But should do the job nicely.

Its true that the "correct" oil is important - its the specification that is important and must be correct. Honda obviously supply the correct stuff, but do charge a lot. Its the same with all products and consumerism. I always look at the list of ingredients on products, and then compare...

I tried that Nick - but it still was left behind. :angry: No I have since found a T handle socket or deep box plug spanner plus tommy bar are available. They don't cost much. Problem is you cant torque them to the correct 13 ft lbs with these. However in my experience, I find that if you seat...

Hi Tom My present Accord, only owned it about two months or so, had a very bad power steering leak when I got it home. I was filling it up every day, but I got a litre of fluid from Aztec oils - I had them look up the correct spec. I think it was about £5 or £6 pounds. My local garage found the...

All oils and lubrication products are made to a specification - the rest is just marketing. Of course, if it makes you feel better to use an expensive, correct "brand" then go ahead; peace of mind is invaluable. Personally I go to an oil wholesale company: "Aztec Oils" at Bolsover. Their...

Haaaaa What a good idea! No it needs one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/T-HANDLE-BAR-SPARK-PLUG-SPANNER-SOCKET-FOR-10mm-PLUGS-16MM-/181136559263?pt=UK_Hand_Tools_Equipment&hash=item2a2c948c9f By the way for anyone doing the valve clearances, I found that with the plugs out you can turn...
