    Soft brakes after replacing front pads only

    pads can need time under braking to heat cycle/bed in. Motorway miles don't count. You car will benefit from bleeding the brakes and replacing with fresh fluid. You could try some hard stops on a safe road just don't stop the car entirely and don't keep your foot on brake while stationary.

    Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    probably pattern parts, garages rarely use dealers. I'm still skeptical tbh, and would get a second opinion from another place or Honda specialist. I'm not doubting it is the rack as the seals can go but always best to check and confirm prices are fair

    VAS, ABS light is on.

    It's rubbish and expensive unfortunately, blame Bosch it affects many makes. Yours may be sensor only and people have had good results with new ebay items alot cheaper than 140 quid dealer wants

    Rear parking sensors

    If original and you have the Bosch park ***ist fitted then there is a fuse and also a resistor normally behind the wheel arch trim in the boot. One looks like a fuse but is actually a resistor, removing that puts the unit into diagnostic mode.

    Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    try to use genuine Honda fluid as pump can be fussy, check high pressure hose for pinhole leaks and at joins. The old hose can fail and is not uncommon. PAS fluid is not changed under normal service routine.

    You foam the car let it dwell for as long as you want then wash as normal. It's nice but abit gimmicky, autobrite lances are very good, and magifoam solution is excellent.

    Fog light removal / replacing bulbs.

    If same as diesel the fog lights have a plastic cowl which are screwed in, good luck getting the rusted screws out. It's easier to drop the bumper and replace from the back.

    accord diesel broken 2!

    Woah poor car, well done Dave for mentioning it. I would hope draining and refilling with diesel should do the trick, but not sure on putting in a whole litre of 2T, maybe 500ml to be safe

    Genuine parking sensors

    I like Nokia have a Lumia 1020, and happy with wp os real simple functions. My Mrs got Galaxy note 3 and though great too many features for me. Anyone who has one I recommend the Spigen neo hybrid case and tempered glass screen protector as the big screen is prone to cracking.
