    End of a free ride?

    Is this going to knock on to TypeAccord? https://petapixel.com/2017/07/01/photobucket-just-broke-billions-photos-embedded-web/ TBH their site is pretty horrible, but their hosting seems to work well. Or at least it did. Has anyone a suggestion for a similar (free) service? If existing hosted...

    Back windows tinted

    Mine came from the factory with privacy glass, and it's darker that I'd have imagined -the kids can be busy waving to their friends but unless I open the window they’re invisible from the outside. I've no pictures though :-( On a practical level it helps keep the sun out of the kid's eyes and...

    Honda sat nav disc

    You might get (a genuine) one on eBay that's newer than your existing one, but may not be the most recent. As far as I know there's more to it than just getting the newest release -you need the right version for your Nav. There are threads on here somewhere... There have been stories of...

The spare is hidden by the hinged boot floor. If I ever trade my car in and get rubbish money my undamaged tray and tub of goop are going...

    2.2 EX Front Brake Caliper Bushes

    Not with you? The brakes come apart pretty easily (excellent guide here: http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/5536-diy-8th-gen-auto-idtec-brake-pad-change/). By the rubber bush do you mean the bit lower-centre of this picture? (photo credit to James2512) If so, I'm not sure they're meant to...

    Self Venting Windows

    My only roll down on an unlocking long press, and roll up on a locking long press. Sounds like yours might @rse-about-face? Not sure that you can enable / disable the feature -I rarely use it and have never found it to be a problem.

    Roof bars for Tourer without rails

    There's a wide but thin hook shaped bit that drops down from the bars and sits in the top of the door recess. From memory, I think there's an indented bit where they ideally locate. It's this bit that differs from car to car (the foot pack), and with the Thule system you can just swap that and...

    Exhaust Manifold

    I don't know if you can live without the car for the duration, or what the freight cost would be, but f6had's guy can weld it for a lot less than a new one...
