    2006 CN1 N22A1 to 2006 CL7 with K20Z2 engine swap

    ouch :[ why not repair your cn1? petrol to diesel is not the most involved swap if you drop the struts along with the subframe and "just" slot it in but it's all the ancillary **** that's gonna snowball and steal your time. for example.. like, yeah you can swap the speedo in 10 minutes, but do...

    eibach pro kit fitted today

    I know tourer geometry is different in the rear and it squats a bit more due to axle weight/distribution but I was already at negative camber before fitting a H&R kit and it made no real difference. fitting cusco rear arms soonish for camber adjustment and then all will be within spec. no need...

    Strange "sticky" feeling Power steering

    it may well be the needle bearings sticking in your steering shaft u-joints if you've ever used a square drive with a flex/u-joint adapter and you run it at the "wrong" angle, it will bind but still turn, but you have to adjust the ratchet angle to compensate. same principle with the u-joints in...

    Nav accord sound issue

    it's a feature, not a bug :) thanks to the alpine amp in the pss all of us with the factory premium sound system experience a bass cutoff at the(iirc) 14 mark on volume knob I remedied the problem slightly by changing my fronts for some jl audio 2way coax speakers, but there's always room for...

    HELP - Brake Master Cylinder spares NOT available

    the strangest thing about this is the fact that for some reason it's not just another honda parts bin master cylinder, even on models with the same weight, caliper bores and master cylinder bores like odyssey/legend/ascot/inspire/rl, the accord master cylinder is completely unique. normally the...

    independent free standing car interior heater ?? Only for winter !

    not that I recommend it, but my boss used to have an old j70 land cruiser with a jøtul wood fire oven in the back, chimney out the roof and all the sky is the limit defa warmup block + cabin heater is a bit less intrusive though, but you do need mains power for it

    Does Littlebo reflash affect reliability over time?

    only hearsay about the map running afrs too lean in little pockets around the web, but all the datalogs that supposedly proved this have mysteriously disappeared over the last 2-3 months, and the buzz around it has died down. it could be a problem with the testing/logging methodology, or it...

    Immobiliser indicator (green key) flashing on dash, preventing car starting

    that's a decent find, you should only need the outlined part(the bit with the green connectors) - 39730S2AG01, but the price for a brand new one is a bit steep. it only reads the code in your key's transponder to match it with what is already stored, so no coding necessary, but you may have to...

    Immobiliser indicator (green key) flashing on dash, preventing car starting

    sounds like the immobilizer receiver has left the building. at the very least, it's the easiest gremlin to chase right now the car will not forget its configuration, the transponder id is unique to your key and the "pairing" is stored in your car's ecm

    Honda Accord EX+ on a 7th Gen, how rare are they?

    I don't remember if they're supposed to point up or down, but cut the pointy side off with small side cutters and replace with zip ties, the oe grilles slot nicely into the bumper so if you're thorough, alignment of the new piece won't be a problem even with ties trust me, I've had mine off...

    Honda Accord EX+ on a 7th Gen, how rare are they?

    can recommend both mv tuning and rising, I had a type s facelift replica grill from mv for my wagon and we've just bought a spoiler from rising tuning for the sedan, I have no doubt their grills would be excellent as well

    no, your tourer has a few extra bends to clear the fuel tank whereas the sedan only has to clear the subframe mid silencer is also a tad different tourer sedan

    Stalling - 2008 mk7 2.2 cdti

    you're on the right track with the pressure warning - don't be too concerned with it, I've had learner drivers in both my wagon and my gf's sedan and they both throw a low oil pressure warning on a stall on some toyotas, a crank pos error will trigger if the car fails to start after several...
