Right i am slightly stupid when it comes to technical terms so you will have to try and follow! Just ask Mutley :lol: Anyways, as you are all aware the gearbox has 2 ports, 1 on either side. 1 is connected to the engine and the other is connect to the drive shaft which powers the wheels...

Your goin to have to wait till I'm home from the gym though! Will post by 11 ish! Will be worth it lol

Steve mate I just read your post I'm going to sort that lying **** out later don't you worry about that! Would anybody like me to explain what he said was wrong with it? Anyone up for a laugh?

Mutley mate it's just like we thought yes! I knew something was fishy. Brett I was honestly surprised too that it could fail that quickly! Thomas yes it's just a clutch change now Fahad mate the £200 was for the clutch and some other bits and bobs that needed doing. Dad went AWOL obviously...

I went to the garage after Uni today to take it to the new mechanic! Without even splitting it he's told be that the gearbox is absolutely FINE!!!! He and this other guy put it into every gear and did something's I have no idea what but anyways he's telling me the mechanic is chatting s***...

Big update lads! Watch this space...........

Just a quick update lads, gearbox coming off in the morning ready for collection. Taking to two different mechanics to diagnose any problem and if so the severity. Will update as it goes along. Also spoke with Gareth at HH and he is very keen to know what happened to it as it could maybe be a...

Silver lining to this fiasco though is I am now insured on the mothers 7 series :) 4.4 V8 is a bit different to my beast! Although averaging 12MPG is not fun at all :(

That's more than a clue what do I get in return? :) can I touch your knob like I touched steves? Haha

Sorry Jon, I have it booked with a few different people to inspect it to see if it is dead or not as what Mutley told me on the phone should not have busted the gearbox and I think me mechanic is trying to pull a fast one. I might not be clued up about vehicle drivetrains but i know how to put...

Mutley is what I would call a legend! Thank you for your time mate! Always nice to see a stupid kid in trouble but this chaps a classy one :)! Got it booked in with someone else mate on Tuesday to have a look at it and inspect it! Now I just need to get it off the car

Mutley can you please PM me your number so I can give you a call please, I'm only a youngen and want to explain what happened but would make for an essay on here mate

If you could explain mate that would save me a lot of time! I did find one but I cant post links either. 2007 45k miles 2.0 petrol manual so exactly like mine but half the mileage for £400 or nearest offer with free delivery! might give a lowball of £300! so expensive for these gearboxes mate...

I've seen that one already jon but mine is the newer accord. A 2007 plate believe it or not! Will it work?

Thanks Jon. So are their really that many salvaged accords out their? Why can't I seem to find them! Lol

Just wanting people to confirm which gearboxes will fit mine. Maybe civic gearboxes I don't know :( but worth asking. I was under the impression that you can't fit a diesel due to the gearing situation but not sure about the 5 speed vs 6 speed! Also if anyone can find a salvaged honda accord can...

Yeah I know 2014 is turning out to be a crap year so far. Right is their any difference between the gearbox for 2.0 and 2.4 or even 2.2 diesel or are they all similar? Next, if I find a good 6 speed box can it replace my 5 speed while I'm at it? I'm going to call a lot of breakers to find...

Well the car has been stripped and unfortunately I have some bad news. The car is going to cost a lot more to get fixed now. To give you an idea of the extent of the damage lets just say when in gear the car won't move! Problem is the part beginning with the letter G and ending in X is dead :(...

Car had to be towed to the garage last night as it Wouldn't even move at all! Being me I could not find the jacking point even though I had the book! And I used the battery cover which to my surprise held up no problem at all :) very very strong lol! Left at the garage and the car is being...

Big problem while taking car to garage the car won't even move now! I'm dreading a driveshaft issue! Car is in gear but will not stall at all
