I had mine regassed about 3 or 4 weeks a go as it's not been working since the winter. I have it on auto permanently and over winter the screen wasn't clearing as quickly as it used to. I replaced the condenser and dryer 5 years a go and fitted another relay as that had blown. It worked...

I've just gone the other way on my 2.4 petrol and changed from 5w30 to 5w40. Would 0w30 be better for the next change?

Well mine passed the MOT on Saturday with no advisories. There's some rust on one rear arch lip and a scuff on the front bumper but it's still a good solid motor. It's close to 129k miles now. The mpg and tax is probably what puts most people off them, which is what's driven down the prices. I...

I have the exact same model as you and I spent well over £1,000 on it 4 years a go, but have only covered 3k miles since then! Apart from an oil change and a new battery 3 weeks a go I've not spent anything else on it since. I was going to sell it but looking at eBay prices I don't think I...

The battery one and also the wires to the starter motor. It looks like I might have a drain as although I only do short journeys the new battery was reading 12.55v last night and 12.25v this morning. That's the first time I've checked the voltage since fitting it. With the car running it was...

Thanks, just ordered it. My battery was reading 11.9v this morning. When the car is running it's 14v so the alternator is fine. Should be anyway as it's fairly new. Yes it comes with post adapters looking at the spec. The positive on mine was loose even on the genuine one so I had to pack it...

Thanks I'll download it when I'm on the laptop. Does it tell you which pin is number 2 on the relay? My experience of low gas is the air con gets cooler over time and doesn't just stop one day. If I can get it to blow cold with the wire from the relay to battery then I can hopefully rule out...

The alternator and starter motor are fairly new and have not covered much mileage. The battery is losing charge even when off the car. Unfortunately it's lack of use and short journeys that are killing it. Great, that's good to know, I'll order one and 5 years warranty from Tayna too. I'm...

I know there are plenty of threads on this but I can't find a conclusive answer on what would fit. I've had a genuine Honda one for just under the last 4 years and it's not holding a full charge any more. Unfortunately Holdcroft can no longer send batteries out and they've also increased in...

Has anyone found the photos that are missing? 6 years after I fixed the air con before it's stopped working. I haven't used the car since lockdown and it was working ok then, I have it on constantly. Getting the car ready today to put back on the road and there was no cold air at all, not even...

I'll email the dealer to check but the letter does mention about the previous repair and this is something else that needs doing.

My 7th gen tourer has a really rusty rear arch lip which is spreading up the sill so I need to do something about it. The other side only has a couple if rust spots so I don't know why this one side has gone like it. When I got the car 6 years a go I had to replace the rotten exhaust and bought...

I was looking on eBay earlier for used K24 parts (not looked for a long time) and noticed the engines sell for £500+ which surprised me. So a complete car without an engine issue is definitely worth selling on rather than scrapping. What cars do people use the engines in then?

I also received this letter and will be booking it in asap. I'll probably go to the Hemel Hempstead dealer as they did the last airbag recall repair too.

I've just come on to ask about this! I haven't used the car much in the last year and it was off the road for 3 months with the battery disconnected. I started using it again in September and have had this issue with the clock not updating since. I had ***umed it was down to having the...

I'm not really using my car that much and fitted a battery cut off switch several months ago. I last used the car over a month a go and it's been disconnected since. I'm using it tomorrow so checked the charge tonight and it was almost still fully charged. I noticed that the indicators were not...

Sorry I didn't reply to this. I am ***uming they would've been checked when the new shocks were fitted. They would've told me if they needed replacing. I've barely used the car since as we've ended up with another one in the family and have been using that. I think I'll be selling the Accord...

I got mine from https://www.autoairconparts.co.uk

Thanks guys I'll try the switch slowly and clean the runners. I've had the car over 4 years now and it's the first time I've experienced it, the auto feature has always worked. Having said that I don't use the windows that often as I have the aircon on most of the time.

I put my window all the way down the other day and when I went to put it up it was getting stuck. It popped up by an inch, then went back down. This happened a few times until it came all the way up. It seems to do it everytime now but I'm not sure what could be causing it. Any ideas? The...
