Hello, could any of you knowledgeable chaps tell me, is it worth me considering a set of wheels for my tourer. They are 19 inch, 8.5j, et 37. I realize they may alter the ride, but I don't want them protruding beyond the arches. I don't want to detract too much from standard looks, but would...

Exactly what I see in my mates' garage!

Yes, my friend has been a garage owner for 40 years and I remember asking him which manufacturers cars he saw fewest of, he said Honda then, and that was a good few years ago. He has lots of VAG cars in for egr, sensors, dpf problems, French cars for electrical problems, mercs with leaking...

Yes I would agree, it is more of a hatchback compared with my 7th gen, which I really love and, which is truly comfortable, in fact there's nothing needs doing except vsa light. I hope my wife will drive it because of all that's been done to it. At the moment she seems to think it's huge...

I agree, it's a really comfortable car, and as you say, when Fahads added a little it will be even better.

I'm sure it's been done to death but I can't find anything with the search button. My 2009 tourer has xenons and the rest of the bulbs look awful. Could anyone furnish me with a recommendation for correct replacement LED'S ? Many thanks, Rod.

After being introduced to Hondas with my old but wonderful 7th gen tourer, I recently bought an 8th gen tourer, what a car !!! The car has everything, it's an EX and everything works ! The handling is a step up from 7th gen for sure and the ride is fantastic. I'll be having Fahad doing his stuff...

Having just moved over from 7th gen, I need to update the sat nav disc on my tourer, can anyone reccommend where's best? Thanks, Rod.

Just read a post by odyyseus from 2017 about baking the bluetooth module, and IT WORKED !!! my phone is now paired and working, thanks to that man :D

Yes, all vital bits replaced with new, and another source suggested flaps. I take it lower dash ***embly out ? Thanks for the reply, Rod.

After fitting a new condenser and compresser to my cdti my friend vacced oiled and recharged my system at his garage. The pipes around the valve under the bonnet are really cold but the air coming into the car is just about outside temp. Any ideas about my next step chaps? Thanks, Rod.

As you seem as though you may be having one or two problems, a trip to F6HAD would be a big help. He has the expertise and equipment to give you the best possible information and advice, I came away feeling much more confidant about my 220k old banger thanks to the once over he gave it.

Thanks for the replies chaps, you're both right and they're working :)

Just had the front off for new a/c condenser and belatedly noticed my headlamp washers not operating, I don't think they ever have. Waterpipe conection was good to bumper when re-connected and windscreen washers are powerful, any ideas before I take off the bumper again, thanks, Rod.

I don't know if there is a remedy, but it would be nice to have my hft working in the old 2008 diesel. It did work when bought, but after a period left standing during which time mig welding was carried out, it stopped working. Sometimes it comes to life when the button is pressed other times...

Probably totally unconnected, but, recently I had no pulling power above 2.5k revs. Had turbo off and tested, ok, Fahad tested everything, egr etc, etc, all ok. Cleaned maf and eventually changed it, no change. Air filter out, all ok full power. Finally discovered a loose plastic cover over the...

Having thought my car was fixed of it's power loss, an interesting addendum is required. At my age some things tend to be overlooked :rolleyes: and after such an exhaustive strip down and rebuild, I was surprised when everything seemed to be returned complete, and further so when my cleaning of...

Thanks chaps, it will be driven as it should Fahad, with attention to the full rev range ;) See you soon I hope.

Well, no parts needed ! Took out and cleaned mass airflow sensor, and intake sensor, now the car accelerates like it should ! No hesitation and full power when foot planted, it's hard to believe that something so simple could have such a drastic effect. Hopefully it will stay as it is now. :)

In the process now!!!
