    Hand brake binding

    Hi. Noticed my rear driver wheel got hot the other day and bit smelly so I took it off to see what's there. Couldn't really turn it so removed the caliper (not without struggle) and I could move it but still not freely. I already read Matt's DIY on it and ordered parts to renew caliper boots. It...

    7th Gen Tourer Rear Brake Overhaul

    I will use this excellent guide soon as one side started to smell funny and it gets hot as well. I took the wheel off and had bit of a trouble to turn it. After removing the caliper I still had the problem but wheel turned more freely. Seems like hand brake is busted too...Shoes were new about 3...

    Grrr. Missed these wheels

    That sucks mate, happens to me all the time. I love these wheels too, just like me Epsilons but bigger and better! :P Seen them in flesh on civics and they look the business, more elegant and sleeker. Hope you get them some day, these deserve to be put on Accord. Altimo, right? Good luck...

    7th Gen - Rubbish for kids car seats

    I have tried few iso fix chairs and none will fit properly. If you lock the seat to isofix you cant pull out the belt socket thingy behind the seat's leg. It is just to short. In order to fasten the belt properly I need to unlock the isofix and then move the whole seat about 2 inches towards the...

    2004 i-CTDI low MPG

    After reading this whole thing again I ask myself a question. Why the hell you invest time and money to fix that rubbish. I mean damn, sell it and forget about it. I also cant understand how you get such bad fuel economy without car smoking a lot. Mine smokes on hard acceleration or if booted...

    Seat Belt Safety lock

With mine if the seat belt is to short (extended just 10 inches or so) this wont work but if its longer it works every single time. On one occasion my boy somehow guided the seatbelt through the seat arm only and it...

    Need a new turbo....any advice or recommendations?

    That suck man :( But. Ebay one, really. No point in getting a brand new one. Used turbos start from £200 or you can get fully reconditioned one for £400. Here is the link: Ebay Turbocharger If you handy with tools you can replace it yourself, there was DIY somewhere as well... Just please...
