Honda Specialist says frequency valve, the one on the top of the engine, that is missing the filter. He has blocked it off with a screw and improved it a lot until I get the vallve delivered. THen a clear the codes for me. He has mentioned that worst case scenario is that I might have an ECU...

Never realised the accord has two cats. A turbo precat then the main cat - Have to do some more research. The main cat has tiny pin ***** like holes in it blowing out of it, no idea about the precat, will find out this week when I drop it off.

I don't know how stuffed it is inside.

http://www.hondaoriginalparts.com/honda_car_parts_selection_pfk.php?block_01=17SED01&block_02=B__0202&block_03=603 part number 3. Thought I was going to be lucky and it was just the protective plate, but gases were blowing out.

It's a late 55 plate. December 2005 I think. I presume out of warranty now.

Where should I be looking for the cat at that price? Eurocarparts had no prices available and all online retailers want me to call first, which defeats the purpose of being online.

Whilst under the car yesterday I had the pleasure of spotting a hole in my cat. It is blowing, not enough to be noisy, but something that will need attention before getting the ecu tinkered with. How does the ICDTI respond to a decat pipe fitted? How much is a replacement cat? The last one I...

I went out this morning to check the vacuum lines and see if there were any obvious splits - none as far as I could see. However I am missing the big filter bit of this Which I unplugged just to check and it made no difference. Strange though that the filter is missing. Will make a decision...

I have thought about it. I just object to taking my car to someone who is going to tell me to replace parts rather than try and fix them. There is a honda specialist near by as well who is meant to be ok, so will give them a shot.

There is a drop in power When I put it in third below 2000 it starts to pull, then just after 2k it has a drop in power then slowly starts to pull again. I'm at the point now where I have to make the decision to put it back through the auction and take a hit or fix it. However when I put...

P1237 has two meanings. One relate to fuel the other to boost pressure. Are they linked? \My enthusiasm is starting to wane a bit. I also have a hole in my cat which is going to have to be straight through piped.

Not fixed. So if I rag it it goes, a bit slow to pick up until about 2500 and then it goes ok. If I put it in 4th at 50mph and put my foot down it does nothing, then goes into limp mode. Any still throwing up p1237

Job now done, thanks for the guide. Took about 2:30 total, this included hunting for the dropped universal joint in the engine bay and playing hunt the bolt under the car.

UPdate Fuel filter fitted car now doesn't cut out - a slight pogo after fitting. but nothing has returned. AIr filter fitted - old one looked brand new. REread codes, no new codes have appeared. Still too flat on the acceleration with not enough go below 2000-2500. It does now pull past 100...

What is the setup of the premium sound system and how does it respond to speaker upgrades? The SAAB I had was *****. You had to have really low impedance speakers and the way the amp filtered the sound made it really limited to how well they performed. I noticed in the back of my tourer I have...

No I supplied them It included draining, refilling oil, transmission, and pulling apart the calipers. That was about it. The parts were going to be another 120 on top of that,

^ It was 88 + vat for the service if I supplied everything - so effectively 100 quid.

^ saw that and asked for the PDF. A 100 quid is a 100 quid towards EGR off.

I have ordered a socket set from Halfords. I don't think my 50 year old imperial one is up to the job. I don't see why I can't do the filter myself, and the rest of the service. Save myself 100 quid or so.

I guess I will order in my service kit and hope that the 120 it costs for everything is that I need for now, until I fix that annoying powersteering pump.
