    Looking at an Accord

    Sorry for the frosty welcome. No, cost is prohibitive, think about getting an egr delete and remap. Not until it happens though, may be a long way off if it's motorway miles.

    Rear abs sensor replaced. Still have abs issues

    You could remove the wheel bearing ***embly, this will allow you to clean out any debris and rust that may be inside the chamber where the sensor sits. Not sure but I think part of the bearing ***embly triggers the abs.

    Brakes overheating. Garage can't fix it - can you help?

    It can't be your brake pipes because you said you were told that the brakes were binding with those pipes disconnected.

    Injector Retaining bolts i-CTDI

    That 1/4mm could just be the stretch from torquing on the old one, shouldn't need any washer adding but if it's worked then sound. "can anyone provide the new/before, after/limit dimensions on them if any exist ?" What dimensions were you referring to?

    2006 EX Tourer Rear Wheel Bearing Torque

    Are you sure it's the hub binding, not the brakes? Maybe try tightening as much as you can so the hub rotates, then take it for a drive, then see if it will tighten some more and still spin freely.

    2006 EX Tourer Rear Wheel Bearing Torque

    I don't think you will damage the hub. Try some oil as it suggests. You are using new nuts? I did a Fiat Punto rear bearing and the torque was @280 nm which I thought was crazy, had to buy a bigger torque wrench to do it. But it was fine.

    Injector Retaining bolts i-CTDI

    I have no experience on your vehicle but I recently had to remove an injector from my sprinter 311 cdi, as it was leaking past the copper seal. I used oven cleaner to clean the injector housing and retaining bolt hole, and bought some brush drill bits to use inside them. Also taped a small tube...

    Broke the wire to the Knock Sensor

    Can you not just solder an extra piece in? Starter motor? Does that mean you ordered the wrong part?

    Brakes overheating. Garage can't fix it - can you help?

    Brakes binding can cause the disc to warp if it overheats. At 46k the discs may have developed a lip around the outer edge that the new pads could be catching on. If they rule out any problems with the discs, ask if they could remove the calliper and see if the disc spins freely. Also it looks...

    Brakes overheating. Garage can't fix it - can you help?

    Absolutely agree, got to be handbrake or incorrectly fitted parts. I'm gathering that with new callipers they also included the guide pins. Discs could be badly warped. I'm guessing you rely on this garage, and I realize it has cost you a lot of money already, but maybe consider taking it...

    Brakes overheating. Garage can't fix it - can you help?

    Never heard of this happening before, I can only ***ume they've fitted the wrong callipers or pads. When mine was binding I fitted a new piston and seals to the calliper and serviced the guide pins and all was well.

    EGR Pipe - Part Number

    I'm struggling to find a 2008 es gt tourer on the parts site, sure it's not 2009? There are 2 pipes, but I wouldn't bother replacing either, I had a split egr pipe, it was over £200 for either one from honda, then all the hassle of getting the job done or doing it yourself. I decided to get the...
