    Tourer tail gate ticking timebomb...

    They tend to go from not being used and excessive force being when being manually closed.

    Gutted. Any VSA help?

    Front left of engine bay with lots of brake lines coming off it. I would do a online parts search as this will often yield quicker results.

    REVIEW + DIY: Accord Type R Caliper Upgrade

    No none at all, you can fit the thicker ATR spec discs if you want I had a set but didn't feel any better.

    MOT fail

    At least it isn't the compliance bush Neil that one is a PITA and often leads people just to replace the whole arm.

    whistling sound

    The last sound clip Adam posted sounds like you describe??

    MOT fail

    I would say they are referring to a control arm, in which case it would be bushing's or a ball joint thats the issue. Either way it may well be worth just buying new parts rather than changing the offending elements.

    whistling sound

    its one of those things mate it could go on for ages just with that noise or it could pack up tomorrow. The noise from your description is not normal and If it was my motor I would be worried about the turbo going and bits finding there way into expensive places.

    whistling sound

    I would first check all the hoses, but if its like a police siren then that sounds like your turbo is knackered. A decent re-conditioner will do a 48hr turn around for about £550ish.

    whistling sound

    Is it a whine or a definate whistle? Have you checked the hoses for boost leaks?? some leaks only appear when the engine moves and reveals a split hose. Make sure to check the hose's to and from the IC and the IC condition as well.

    alloy size

    IIRC the hub bore for the mazda is like 67.1 and Honda is 64.1 or something similar. You can get them on ebay easy enough either plastic or made out of billet.

    alloy size

    Your Honda spec wheels are 5x114.3 and the offset is 55mm Those mazda wheels will fit but you will need spiggot rings as the centre bore size is larger than Honda. The mazda wheels IIRC have a 52mm offset so will sit in the arches nicer and not cause any issue like rubbing.

    how long to change fuel filter

    Defo sounds like a fuel delivery problem, lets hope changing the ff solves your issue. BTW £10 was a great price mate if your confident in his work post about it as it may also help less mechanically minded members near your way.
