    Sat Nav Crashing

    It's probably struggling to read the disc properly. Your best bet is to remove the disc drive and clean the lens with some lens cleaning fluid (the kind you'd use for glasses, just a dab on a cotton bud should suffice as it's such a small area). There's a guide somewhere to removing the trim and...

    Vibrations

    No use. New shafts, or shafts the categorically know are ok. Second hand OEM shafts could still be warped. Not visible to the naked eye, but enough to cause vibration. The CV joint and shaft are one unit on these cars, so it could also be something in the CV joint itself. Remember, drive shaft...

    Vibrations

    It'll be drive shafts most likely. How many miles/KMs has the car done? To rule out any potentially cheaper solutions, check wheel balancing and for bulges on the tyres.

    Custom Exhaust experiences 2.4 Tourer

    Yeah, copy what's there but stainless with some slightly more breathable ****lers and it should be nice.

    Custom Exhaust experiences 2.4 Tourer

    I've got stainless 2.5" on my tourer. Custom made as there aren't off the shelf parts available for the estate. It's low in note and absolutely sings in the high rev range. It's not so bad on cruising. I've got one ****ler on the pipe before the Y split and two backboxes. Maybe if you have a...

    self levelling xenon headlights faulty

    The plastic motor bits seize and don't allow for the headlamps to move with ease. I also had some issue with the self levelling ECU and had to swap mine out with one from a breakers yard. But I think that was a very unusual problem and not something common at all. Best to look into the most...

    self levelling xenon headlights faulty

    Found the video. It's for the 7th gen, but it'll probably be the same principle, possibly even the exact same part as I know this part is shared across several models.

    self levelling xenon headlights faulty

    Seized headlamp adjuster, likely the one on the same side as the battery. Heat from battery is the culprit in my opinion. Happened to mine. Replace the headlamp adjuster. There's a thread of mine somewhere where my problem is discussed with links to a video that explains it. Couldn't begin to...

    Toyota Vs Subaru Vs Honda drivers

    I didn't know gay was blocked by the swear filter... Perhaps in the past it was used in an unkind and/or spiteful way, the way school children might use it. Generally speaking society is moving past using gay as a term of insult, and rightly so. Best it get removed from the swear filter.

    Toyota Vs Subaru Vs Honda drivers

    Mate, I work in education... Half the week in the maintained sector, half the week in the private sector, so I get double whammy courses on such stuff :rolleyes:

    Toyota Vs Subaru Vs Honda drivers

    It appears that car owners like to share the bed with other human beings... In this picture however the Toyota owner seems to want to brag about it, while Subaru and Honda owners are happy and comfortable with themselves, their partners and soundly sleeping. Perhaps the Toyota owner feel the...

    LED rear clusters

    Right click on the image and select "copy image address" and then paste that into the insert picture dialogue box. I'm using Safari on a Mac, but I'm sure whatever browser you're using, as long as you can get the image's url, this will work.

    LED rear clusters

    Photo bucket's changed, it's kinda killed the internet to an extent! People are hosting images on Imgur in the way we used to use photobucket. Hopefully they'll hold off on charging users to hot link from other sites.

    Diesel bashing thread! (Only kidding - pros and cons discussion)

    I repeat... it's not bashing anything. The ***le's just tongue in cheek. Diesel's have their place as much as Petrols. I liken this whole debate to the 16 bit console wars of the early 90s. The SEGA Mega Drive versus the Super Nintendo. Both very different animals, both great inventions. Both...

    Idle problems

    I'm not sure what the idle learn procedure would be on a 96 accord, but worth looking into it. On the 7th Gen it's a case of holding the car at 3K rpm until the engine's up to temp and then letting it idle without any auxiliaries on (no radio, no air con etc). Might be different on your car, but...

    Diesel bashing thread! (Only kidding - pros and cons discussion)

    Just a reminder (in light of comments made here and elsewhere that are now removed for being off topic), the ***le of this thread is tongue in cheek, but the motives are very honest and balanced. Here's the OP's thread opener... Anyone interpreting this as hating on diesels or stirring up...
