I don't think I'll change the leads, unless I need too but I'll definitely do the plugs and think I'll get the oil changed too seen as I don't know what's in it. I think I'm going to have to get the cambelt done as it's far too risky not too. Ah yes the Triumph Acclaim!! Actually the successor...

Not at all saying I know better matey, just debating the subject. Anyway I think I'd better shut up lol.

Really? That's very interesting seen as a good quality aftermarket one would have been tested for that vehicle and should work perfectly fine. Plus the Honda filters won't be made by Honda, they'll be made for them by someone else under license and then labled and boxed as Honda. But then again...

Ahhh so that's where they keep the fuel filter lol. Well they certainly hid that well didn't they eh? You know I think I'll try a set of plugs in it. I'll take your wisdom on board there, it certainly makes good sense. Oh believe me I know how these cars like to be abused a bit. This car...

I know they're genuine filters but I don't see the point in paying the extra for them. Not when you can get aftermarket filters made by the likes of Fram or Mann or Blueprint that are just as good as the Honda but much cheaper. Fram filters are very good in my experience. I don't see the need to...

This dpf clean they did, was that like a force regeneration? Only if it was me I'd try a terraclean as they do a clean aimed at dpf's. I had my old Corolla diesel terracleaned and it worked great for me. It didn't have a dpf mind you.

Thank you very much for the detailed reply it's very helpful. The car is a manual and tbh I've not really been revving it too highly because of the uncertainty around the cambelt. Mind you I think it might be lacking a few service requirements. For instance I replaced the air filter midweek as...

And there's loads to talk about tbh but I'll pick out a few things here for now. For a kick off, I got this last Monday and noticed yesterday that there was a leak near one of the rear wheels. Took it into my local and they discovered one of the brake pipes was corroded to hell, leaking and in...

I'd add to that, check the obvious and make sure the alternator belt is still there. Always the possibility I may have snapped and vanished.
