    Headlight Bulbs

    Does anybody else's Accord go through headlight bulbs like they are going out of fashion? Mine seem to blow every few months and tonight it managed to blow both bulbs at the same time. They blew so hard that it actually smashed the glass at the end of one of the bulbs.

    Oil - Petrol Engine - 0w30 or 5w30

    Trust Honda. They will have done lots of testing in lots of climates to come to conclusion that 0W30 is best !

    Clutch Auto Adjustment

    Not sure if I have read it somewhere or dreamt it but seem to remember seeing something about 2.2 Diesel having and auto clutch adjustment and that it may not adjust until it's actually starting slipping. Just wondering as mine feels like it's on the way out as the biting point is very high and...

    All you wanted to know about engine oils & fuels !

    I just meant that if you may as well change back to A5/B5 as you don't need the C2 and it's probably more expensive.

    All you wanted to know about engine oils & fuels !

    Yes C2 would be okay for one change. It's a low SAPS oils designed to not pollute a DPF, that you won't need, but that way around won't do any harm. Using an A5/B5 in a car that need a C2 would poison the DPF.

    Another faulty tailgate

    I just make sure I've pushed it back every time I have used it, which is not very often as I use the remote most of the time.

    Another faulty tailgate

    Check the handle. Mine would not latch properly and I found the handle was a little sticky and wasn't returning to the correct place when released.

    Re-Gas or not Re-Gas

    My 2004 Diesel Tourer is the first car I've had with air-con and had it re-gassed in October 2018 and wondering whether it needs doing again soon? Have done approx 30,000 miles since it was done but going away for a holiday with lots of driving soon and don't want it to run out. Anybody got...

    Tourer Boot Water Leak

    Found my Tourer spare wheel well to be half full of water a few weeks ago which I have temporarily solved by drilling a few holes in the boot floor to drain it but is there a common cause for this? The cloth floor of the boot is totally dry but can see traces of water going down the sides of...

    LCD Clock not changing with SatNav Clock

    Mine randomly changed itself twice in the last few weeks, not to the correct time though, so maybe they were starting to re-enable the service on the satellite signal

    oil spec for k20a6

    Go for an A5/B5 then as it will be a better oil than the A3/B3 and provide even better protection

    oil spec for k20a6

    A 5w30 A3/B3 or even A5/B5 would work fine

    Top display clock changing on its own!

    Since the GPS signal changes I have had to change my Tourer top display clock by disconnecting the battery at 1pm. Randomly today the clock suddenly advanced by one hour while we were driving and not touching anything!! Anybody else seen this??

    Fixed - Clock and AirCon Top Display

    Unfortunately not. This is nothing to do with the car and is down to changes in the GPS signal that occured earlier this year or last year. Afraid there is no fix for it other than disconnecting the battery as you have said.
