Hi Adam I have the same problem- my N/S looks like a rainforest and since ive replaced all the bulbs, the dipped hardly puts light on the road! Theres a link on here showing how to change the lights too. Thanks to F6HAD as well - good to know the facelift lights will fit- just need to find a...

Hi Salim They are Dunlops on the front - humming on recently happened and got worse when I had my bushes done with the suspension now being nice and tight! Its deffo coming from the driver side so may take your advice and give it another month- I also have the wobble at 30 and 60 so will...

Thanks Cliff Ill try the hairdryer and silica gel and see how I get on first - meanwhile, Ill look for that link!! cheers :D

Thanks Cliff Ordered 50g bags so should be here tomorrow - looks like a rain forest inside it at the moment and have checked the rear seal cap and main beam seal too- both securely on. I know it hasnt had the "clip" recall done but I dont trust the local garage not to mess with the car as had...

cheers mate i dont have the HID upgrade but as you say, could have upset a seal on the housing As i bought the car in summer, i have only just noticed how poor the headlamps (dipped) are to other cars - have tried blue, ice and normal halogens and adjusted the headlamps but find the light very...

Cliff had the car on the ramps and tried the wheel to see if any play to show worn bearing- tried my hardest but no freeplay! does this mean it is not the bearing or simply it hasnt loosened off yet? cheers

Morning guys- yet another minor niggle! Although its always cold in Scotland (!) , the past week or 2 I have noticed that there is a lot of condensation inside the passengers headlight unit- not just mist but the lens is covered in droplets. This may explain why I have to keep replacing bulbs...

Thanks Cliff The noise had me fooled for a bit but it is coming from the front O/S - Ill get the bearing changed asap (hopefully it may cure the "wobble" and avoid me having to change the shafts!) cheers mate :D

Hi guys Just had the compliance bushes, droplinks and suspension fork bushes done on my 04 Tourer -long overdue!! Suspension is nice and tight. However, I noticed a humming from the front before I got this done - very slight road noise. This has got worse since my work was done -it starts...

Guys for the novice like me, this is a great guide so im gonna give it a go as a full service will be due in about a 1000miles! Noticed on my car that there are no metal spring-clips holding the pipes onto the fuel filter! this may seem like a dumb question but did you clamp the inlet and...

Hi mate I fitted a Witter towbar to my 04 estate- easy as pie- also bought the Accord Specific wiring - it was £120 and i expected it to take max 15 minutes - wrong!! I had to remove the panels on the right side of the the boot and get access to the wiring and actually cut wires in the loom...

found a way to avoid it- fed it through plug in passengers floor, inside the wheel arch cover and drilled a hole next to the vehicle ID plate!!! next time ill pay someone !lol

Cheers bud-think im gonna have to do the same, just spent another hour trying to find a hole so giving up!! off to drill a hole- and hopefully not hit anything!!lol :rolleyes:

Morning guys Just fitted a towbar to my CTDI Tourer and a car-specific electrics kit. All i need now is to connect the 12v cable (and fuse) to the battery terminal but cannot for the life of me find anywhere to put it (no puns please!!lol) I can get the cable from the boot under the kick plate...

Brilliant- thanks for the link - found Beffys post and it worked a treat!! 2 working keys!! :lol:

Thanks for this- worked a treat on my defunct spare!! brilliant ;)

Hi guys My spare key looks like its never been used- couldnt find my normal one so tried to use it. LED flashing when pushing the buttons- not working the remote locking. Unlocked car manually, key recognised in ignition and starts ok so clearly coded to vehicle. Changed battery as last owner...

Fixed despite local dealer trying to rip me off! While I was buying a compliance bush, spoke to the service guy and explained my problem. The dealers second name rhymes with Shark. Me : Could it need a recharge? How much is it ? Guy: No, if you have cold air on 1 side its charged ok. A...

Hi- a friend who works for a errr, tyre and exhaust specialist removed some using their a/c machine-however, i didnt want to pay for the full recharge as, even though he is ok, didnt want it overcharged causing more probs. Rather see a specialist so ill take your advice! I had heard some...

Hi all have an 04 CTDI - had it for a couple of months now and has high mileage (167k) and a full history. I had thought the air con wasnt working but something odd has happened! The past week, ive used it and discovered that: * Cold air is coming out the passengers left air vent (most of the...
