young as in under 24 and has been in the trade for no longer than 4 years. the top 3 people out of the honda regonal got into the final 6, which say a hell of a lot about how good honda training is! there was 10 regenal finals i believe and only 3 people out of the other nine regenals got to the...

by the way..............you did remove the filter and compare against the new one you were given i presume? as in separate it from the filter holder? a picture could tell a thousand words here. if this is the first time you have carried out a filter change, all this may well stem out of...

ive got to be on my game anyway as i am in the uk skills final this thursday and friday. never know......by the end of the week i may be top young technition in the uk?

its all very interesting this. but in answer to woodman, i think your wasting your time fitting one setup at the front and annother the rear. please dont bother! fit one set up or the other else the car will not drive progessively. honda has spent many millions and hours of testing developing...

my apprentice training comes flooding back lol

did you get a warranty with this bloke lol. the clutch is the cause of clutch slip in 99.9% of cases and not the flywheel. the flywheel may well cause what feels like a missfire if faulty but realy should be changed if it has too much or little play. so long as the clutch is removed carefully...

older dieslel engines used to inject fuel into a chamber at the side of the main combustion chamber due to the fuel pumps relaively low preasure. this caused the tell tale diesel knock we all know and hate as fuel started to combust outside the main combustion chamber hense the knock. think...

without searching further i caunt realy explain in specific terms but i will try to elaborate shortly i a way that isnt an essay and everyone can understand lol

hond's stance : 10) Fault Increased combustion noise which can be heard at light load around 2000 rpm. (Diesel models only) Fix This is due to the changing fuel injection parameters at this speed. The fuel system uses "pilot injection" as a means of softening diesel knock...

i wasnt sure whether the later accords were different to earlyer models off the top of my head. the problem lies with the fact there is two filter sizes for the ictdi. namely the larger one is fitted to the accord. the smaller is fitted to the civic and i-dtec. the top of the filter should sit...

there are two sizes of oil filter on the i-ctdi. the wrong filter may have been fitted previously as the smaller filter will fit the longer filters housing. later i-ctdi's had the shorter filters fitted (facelift). the i-dtec has the same filter as the later ictdi engines. there is no way an...

the missfire and clutch slipping suggests a failed clutch and flywheel but if they are replacing the clutch anyway they will advise you on the flywheel at the same time.

i presume you have the standard satnav?. you need to enter the diagnostic menu and calibrate the mic level.

you will find honda is very good with these sort of things!

i wouldnt take the risk if your paying good money for either. its up to you if you want to try a crv alternator if you can get one cheep enough. the next cheepest option is to fit a breaker donor alterator form an accord or replace the front bearing on the alternator you have. replacing the...

very strange that! i should imagine this a complete one off or at leist very few would be affected. ile keep an eye out, as ime sure CJ will do likewise.

long term the squeek may get a little worse but its very unlikely to fail or anything drastic. ime not sure what any of these warranties cover but if you discuss it with the sales or service manager ime sure they will be able to advise.

greasing the master cylinder may stop the squeek for a month or a week but to cure the problem a new master cylinder is required i am affraid. the best stuff to use in the meantime though is molycote spray lubricant. it is what honda reccomended for civics when we had problems with there clutch...

this could well be your driveshafts as it is not uncommon on diesel accords. there is a possibility of a DMF problem but you should get the same vibration at idle with an imballanced flywheel and poss running problems. difficult to say realy without driving the car.

its a lovely job to do with the engine out!............no point messing arround when doing an exhaust manifold and timing chain.
