Have noticed a slighty rough idle, not a dip & very very slight. You know where you can just feel the engine through the gear stick when sat at lights. Only just & not always, this car is usually so smooth & quiet. Will change sparks asap...

Just a quick one, anyone know the part number / reference for the correct plugs please?...

Ok will change the sparks first off, get the belt done soon & pray It's not the starter motor. As for the fuel filter, no IME knows how to change it, not even Honda dealer, think it's part of the tank etc....

I can't quite remember but I'm sure the crank was ok, as soon as I gave the pedal a little push it seemed to kick in ok, only just had a service October time. The 2 times it's happened it's been stood for a few days, 1st time very cold, 2nd just been washed. Just looked through my service...

Just wanted to check what the correct battery code is for my 2.4 tourer, online sites are showing 027 and 005, same power it seems but different sizes, anybody know what the recomended code/size/power is please, cheers...

Hey fella, no issue with the stalking, just glad of the replies and help, very much appreciated. Car has bout 87k on, same deal with starting, seems to take a while but always does execpt today and about a month ago, not helped at all by the new battery. Today and before struggled but i gave...

Have been having a couple of issues with starting the car, had battery checked and then changed the battery but fault still there. It looks like the accessory belt is a little frayed... Could this be causing the issue? When I filled up the washer bottle today the wind blew a load over the...

Was the passenger side nearer the back, wish I had had a drink and re-read your post. The garage charged me and out at £35 plus VAT £42 as they said they took ages to drill out as my drill bit that snapped was stuck in there! Didn't have a nut that fitted anyway. Had a right go at the garage...

Not worth changing until is knackered, may last a few year more. Can get a battery checker for about £6 of eBay if you want to keep an eye it every now and again...

I have had both my tourer rear calipers changed and for nowhere near that cost, one at Honda in Grantham and the other at a Jap car specialist, both used blue print ones, they are refurbed ones I think as you get the better price but have to leave them your old ones, both Honda and the other...

Nice one, will pick one up and save the next jar too, the need to get a clamp. this was the impact driver I saw, very cheap though, maybe too cheap... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190615788383?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Right think I got it all sorted in my head, cheers for sharing the video, i'm a visual person so seeing what folks are on about really helps, sure I could do it now. Did you make a up a 'Mountain Dew' bottle fliud catcher?...

Ok sorted thanks, have a wind back tool, need to get an impact driver, seen some cheap on eBay but Halfords one looks good, will pick one up soon.One questions, the guy on the video says use silicone paste, is the red rubber grease the same thing? cheers...

cheers for all the great advise. She's just had the timing belt done and an oil change, think we need to do the rear brakes, discs and pads, is this an easy job? I know on my own gen7 the rear callipers just swing up for the pads and were a 10 minute job...

Well parts came and have been soaking in fluid for the last couple of days and first side whet perfectly, second side one snapped off, sure it was going well then my wife rang and when I went back under the car it snapped so I'm blaming her! Didn't have a nut to fit the new bolts so tried...

Can't be the case with my sisters, they look pretty bad but she doesn't have headlight washers :D am going to try the t-cut, have some g3 too and some 3M expensive finishing compound, my MR2 rear lights came up very well with this...

Ok, looked at the parts site online and postage is high, eBay, parts costs a bit more. So rang Grantham Honda and same price for parts as online but only charged me £1.60 postage so new bushes on their was and ordered 4 new bolts just in case too. Fingers crossed I can get the old ones undone...

I ha d a Civic VTi (B18) before my Type S tourer and have an MR2 too, even though on paper the Accord is faster it doesn't feel it, I think down to the refinement, quietness and high vtec as mentioned. Still no slouch though and although a bit slow off the line it's good at going if you drop a...

Had a look just lying on the drive today and can see where they are, easy access as you said, visually they look ok but think i'll change these first before going the droplink replacement route. Is it a good idea to get the nut's and bolts too? Have sprayed them all with penetrating spray for...

Forgot to say, spare wheel nut in place (well snapped off now as was rusted so bad when I undid it to take the spare out it sheared), will check all the seals in day light and get some silicon on them, works a treat on the MR2 tbar seals to rejuvenate. Cheers again...
