    Another VSA Light On Success Story !

    Do you need to have a full/ Honda service history to make the warranty claim? What are peoples experiences without full service history? Went into my local dealership the other week and they said I needed a full Honda service history as it's a warranty issue. And he tried to claim that if it...

    Front parking sensors

    There's a rubber grommet behind the passenger wheel arch liner you can go through then just tap into the main wiring loom for the power feed.

    Sunroof not tilting

    Took me 6 months to realise it tilted, but only after seeing other members pics, and another 2 weeks to work out how to make it happen.

    Reversing Wire

    I would say the wiring loom will run along the floor like on the saloon. So a simple place to get access would be behind the rear seat side bolster. It's help in by 1 screw at the bottom then lift upwards.

    Terraclean diesel

    Its a 1:200 mix so if you're putting 50 litres in your aiming for 250 ml of 2 stroke.

    3 litres of oil gone in 1.5 miles!

    If it has been running fine for the last 2 months with a bent key then I would say you're extremely lucky. Fingers crossed, I think the oily gods might have been smiling on you. Sounds like the oil seal going has done you a huge favour.

    Engine Oil Conditioner

    Never tried it myself but with changing your oil every 5-6k I can't see you suffering from any of the problems this additive might help prevent.

    Replacing a rear calliper

    If you need to ask how to bleed brakes then it's not something you should be attempting by yourself. Either watch your mechanic do it (or offer to help him so he can teach you) or have someone who knows what they're doing with you to guide you through the process. It's not something you should...

    3 litres of oil gone in 1.5 miles!

    I think Pedro has hit the nail on the head here. Adam replace the seal with a new one and when you do fit the retainer too. Job done.

    3 litres of oil gone in 1.5 miles!

    You're obviously loosing a lot of oil externally. So first I would clean the engine and confirm the cause of the leak before attempting to undertaking any work. otherwise you could be wasting your time and money just fitting parts hoping you've got it right. It does seem like a lot of oil loss...

    Oh Deer!

    Well you could have stopped and checked if it was ok and if it was hurt called the RSPCA. I'm sure it was a lot more scared of you than you would have been of it. If you hit a person you'd have stopped so why not for an animal. Never swerve to miss an animal as doing so could cause an accident...

    changing brake pads

    I've had EBC discs and pads before and can only say good things about them and I can get my discs hotter than most people who claim to be late brakers. It is true that they did have an issue after a design change which caused a lot of people problems but that was about 8 years ago now and the...

    ABS/VSA lights

    In the scenario in the link I added the owner had an accident below 10 mph. No sensors or units were replaced but the unit still needed a recalibration. Not sure why it would do that, especially as you say nothing was disconnected with the ignition left on. The unit might just have thrown a fit...

    ABS/VSA lights

    I heard of this on another site. You need to get the sensors recalibrated, they loose the position once you reach a certain speed. For the other guy it happened to the VSA light came on every time he got over 25mph. Take a look here VSA calibration it describes the same problem and explains how...

    abs vsa pump

    There are about 6 or 7 different vsa module codes which went on the diesels. You would need to find one which has a matching code to your one.

    Facelift manifold

    I think I've got one of the last 2008 cars, registered 1/3/08. It's got the one liable to cracking on it. And I'm pretty sure the dodgy VSA unit as well.

    Service parts

    Jon the only part number I'd be able to supply is the Honda part number. The one you've quoted for the Bosch filter I'm ***uming is the one stamped on the side of the filter. Unfortunately it's impossible to see this number on the Denso cartridge filter with it installed on the car. If a member...

    Service parts

    Seriously!!!!! If you're looking at buying a fuel filter make sure it's original. Use the search function and you will find countless numbers of people who have bought after market fuel filter and had problems with them only to then have to replace them with OEM filters afterwards. Save yourself...

    SILICONE HOSE KIT

    Most common names come to mind are Samco and SFS performance. I'm pretty sure SFS are a UK company, and for some reason I seem to recall they could make them to order as it would also help add to their product range. If they do make them to order they would likely need your OEM hoses for a while...
