    iDTEC losing power in mid rev-range

    Honda will have no reason to remap a car it ***umes us stock. In theory - based on the 7th gen - pulling the battery will reset the ecu, but not the map. If the map was undetectable (sic) there is nothing for Honda to see. Other things remain a possibility of course.

    Parking Sensors

    Spoke to them already - agree it might be the jet wash idea, and asked me to leave it a few days to see if they dry out otherwise they'll have it back for a look-see.

    Parking Sensors

    As some may know, the missus decided she wanted essence of Lexus along our nearside, but I wasn't too happy, so sent Honda-kun off for an insurance repair. At the same time I have Essence of Holdcroft removed from the front end by ordering from our friends at HH a colour matched bumper - cheers...

    iDTEC losing power in mid rev-range

    Have you had the stock map reinstated? Bit harsh on Honda otherwise ;). Also worth checking for loose or holed vacuum hoses. These have been missed in the past.

    Intercooler questions.

    Monks had a custom setup, another member bought the car from him (the name escapes me now). I think though you are pretty restricted because of the location of it.

    Spare / Replacement Key

    I got my last blade cut in a traditional locksmiths shop - he said the metal was rock hard and would have charged more had he known. Most auto-places near me were not interested in the least. Mind you in London there will be far more choice, Just make sure they have their own indemnity insurance.

    URGENT - Sump Plug

    No there is only the washer and that is loose. You should get it off by fair means or fowl and use the new washer. there is a "side" to the washer, but I am bugge7ed if I know which one is which,.

    2.2 i-ctdi oil questions

    It was, and all good humour from my readings. It would be interesting to see what was used in the engines that died... some threads I recall do state this.... but I am in the bath and sooooo can't be bothered to look :D.
