    Do your steering wheel controls illuminate?

    Wonder how hard it would be to retro-fit? I want a auto dimming mirror from an EX but everywhere wants silly money for them, did find a brand new one on ebay a complete kit but its for an 8th gen :(

    Wheel bearings, Brake disc and pad change cost?

    Get your uncles mate to price one up as if he is a mechanic he will no doubt have a trade account with a local motor factors and will be able to get it cheaper than you can.

    Blower Voice Comands

    Off the top of my head you probably have to tell it to turn the a/c off then tell it to turn the fan speed up. You can get a list of commands up on the screen try pressing Info and then there is something like Help or something similar. You will get a list where you can choose from...

    Regular updates to SatNav maps?

    Using TomTom Truck in the truck with Live Services comes in Very handy with the traffic updates, I still use maps to check its routing me the right way. I cant do battle with the idiots on the road, change gear every 30 seconds and read a map at the same time as watching where the trailer is...

    Regular updates to SatNav maps?

    I prefer my TomTom for the 3D view as you drive, missed a few turns with the Honda 2D view in the past. When a road changes it can take a while before the new maps show the changes. There are 2 new roads near me it shows up as a dotted line on the Honda 2010 disc even though the roads have been...

    another successful diesel oil service

    I usually get the front end on axle stands then jack the back up so the car is level and also pour in the correct amount and if it starts coming out stick the bung back in and dont put anymore in. It usually works out that the right amount in litres has gone in.

    Help! Radiator bleed

    Are the heaters blowing hot air and is the temp gauge working as normal? It can take ages for the fans to kick in, just keep an eye on the coolant level for the next few days, ideally when engine is cold.

    Changing the radiator fluid.

    Fan speed doesnt really matter all you are doing by setting to HI/hot is opening the valve that lets the water flow through the heater matrix in the car thus allowing any air to escape and also when draining it it will drain the heater matrix too.

    Tourer rear brakes - hmmm burning :(

    I'm having problems with the nsr brake on the tourer, originally started with excessive heat and squeeking (it had worn 1 pad to metal) so when I replaced the rear discs and pads I cleaned everything up and its all been fine for the last few months. Then tonight I could smell that horrid smell...

    Sat Nav Disc - Map Update Question

    Guys do we have any concrete proof that copied discs destroy the laser quicker? Surely if someone has a 5 year old car and the sat nav has been used everyday then there is more chance of it failing than one thats only been used once a month for example? I'm just curious lol......
