Does the reading change with the sensor disconnected?

Have you got your own diagnostic software so you can see what reading the sensor is giving? It would be good to see what the new sensor is reading compared to the old one. Also did the new sensor fail immediately or did it work initially then fail? I am just wondering if a break in the cable is...

Once its started and running it should be fine. If you let it stall and then try squeezing the priming bulb is it still hard?

The shoulders on my front tyres are wearing quickly at the standard tyre pressures too. I have increased the front pressures a bit which seems to be helping. My last Accord had 17" tyres with an XL rating and never had these problems.

Mine has them fitted. Shoulders seem to wear quickly on the front at standard tyre pressures. Grip is average as is noise.

If this is mapped for 95RON why do you say it runs best on 99RON? Can the AT handle the increased torque over a period of time or is the gearbox more likely to fail? What is dbw?

But have you checked for 5v and earth at the feed to the sensor like Jon said above?

Its inside the petrol tank

Its a French hot hatch that will now be getting on for 30 years old. They had enough problems when new never mind 30 years of abuse later.

I hope the OP buys a car soon so we can finish this. Different cars suit different peoples budgets and lifestyles and we all choose them for our own reasons. And they all break at some point whether they were cheap or expensive.

Always had a soft spot for the old 5 GT Turbo

You could also check what voltage is being supplied to the sensor and compare that with your friends car and I would guess that one pin should be connected to earth so when you work out which pin it is, check the resistance between that pin and earth.

Its the air con removing moisture from the air inside the car. I've had a few people stop me to tell me I have a massive leak when in fact its perfectly normal

Most people just but a small bag of silica gel in the headlight to absorb the moisture similar to what you might sometimes get with a new pair of shoes. There is an official recall for this but it is mainly just add more clips and a bag of silica gel

You missed the Audi diesel Le Mans winner ;)

I think when I did mine, once the system is searching for your phone make your phone search too, then when your phone finds the car input the code into your phone.

I think if you have the buttons then you should have it. All accessed by pressing the button then talking to it. The car must be stopped to pair your phone. Try pressing the button then saying menu or help. What problems are you having with pairing? How are you trying to do it?

On the diesel the iat is part of the mad. I'm guessing from your fault that the petrol is the same

Well a new or used pump could be expensive but a new genuine fuel filter could cost less than £30. I know what I would try first. And in future don't ignore faults until they cause you to breakdown

I've never heard of the chain stretching on these or jumping a tooth. I've owned one with a noisy chain and it never had any problems starting or showed any fault codes because of it. Have you checked the wiring to the cam sensor if that is the fault you are getting?
