    Easiest way to change keyfob battery (without breaking retaining screw)

    i dont think you have any idea what i am on about tbh. this 'screw' in question is a ***** of a one that is used to hold the key together and is held in place with thread lock substance.

    3 click indicator

    I had a mondeo and indeed the front heated screen was in fact the best thing about the entire car, my lesux has heated (and cooled) everything so i am not missing out on creature comforts now.

    what exactly is the point of this, is it so difficult to manually adjust an indicator when and if you require it to be used? and yes, i agree with what edge said. Some hopeless drivers out there.

    Fitting Cruise Control on a non cruise control equipped accord?

    do they, I'm not sure i could get a 08 lexus like mine for the same or less in the USA, or an 8th gen accord for that matter. I would gather the difference is marginal. For brand new cars its probably better. But we are bonkers in the UK the way we chuck perfectly good cars out.

    Fitting Cruise Control on a non cruise control equipped accord?

    one of the good things (if you have to chose something) about the UK is the glut of relatively cheap cars, go anywhere else in the world and you will see how good we have it. Singapore, Thailand...Denmark all countries with expensive cars. The bad thing about it here is the road congestion and...

    Car Key Programming

    good luck with them steps on a blank key, the cows will be dying to get home by the time you get it done. Im on about this btw, ... has no buttons just empty so I am thinking of getting it fully functional., which seems to point towards a blank key. I am not on about the op at all.

    Car Key Programming

    yes, the easiest way is to get to a lock smith and get it programmed, unless you want to splash out on lock smith equipment that you will only use once or twice. my flip key was 'diy' (i took the guts out of the oem one and put into a blank one from ebay... skill level? .01) since I had no...

    Road/auto transmission noise in 8th Gen

    man, by the time you get a car men will be in space.....! most cars have road noise, my 7th gen had it, the only cars with little or no road noise would be a rolls royce (bit much..?!), my car is very quiet but not silent (especially over 4k when the typhoon kicks in ...mmmm!), its considerably...

    petrol VTEC or diesel accord opinions/help

    diesels are more polluting than petrol, the black plume of smoke is a hint., the good thing about the lexus is it does recirculate automatically when it senses this cancerous smoke with the smog sensor at the front

    petrol VTEC or diesel accord opinions/help

    nah, in Ireland that is what we call it, Ireland is full of 'daysul's' its a bit comical at this stage the amount of them on the road. In most cases people have sold perfectly good petrol cars to be the proud owner of a more tax friendly 'daysul' version. Nothing wrong with that but the saving...

    petrol VTEC or diesel accord opinions/help

    I got an is250 instead of an 8th gen........i thought the 8th gen 2.4 i did have in mind was too expensive, i got my lexus for cheaper and it was the same year as the accord, all I had to do was fix up my sat nav.

    petrol VTEC or diesel accord opinions/help

    there's more chance of nasty things happening to a diesel car.......so all that 'extra' mpg and road tax can be wiped out very swiftly. 8th gen economy is crap, i had a similar tale from Ireland my brother knew a guy at work who had a top spec model, he sold it, it needed a new clutch i...
