well funnily enough my HFT just suddenly stopped working a short while after installing xcar link. I wondered if it had something to do with playing music through stereo speakers and then the hft calling for the phonecall to start operating through speakers and there was a break down because it...

Wondering if anyone has had any battery drainage issues with an xcarlink or other iPod/iPhone cd changer port accessory. Shortly after installation in around may this year I left car for 2 nights in a friends house and it woklxnt start. Jump leads no good so car towed and told battery done and...

Yeah, guess so. No worries about the oil filter etc as I bought a genuine service kit from Honda but if the levels are ok Ill hang on till the next oil change due. Gonna do next oil change myself So is it 0w or 5w? semi or fully synthetic

ok thats seems dead on then. Ill leave it till it needs a change again. Should be ok to Jan or better (12000mls)

Have read through the oil threads, car was serviced around April this year (cant remember exactly) but Im wondering now if she needs topped up. So was reading threads on type and halfords reccommends 5w/30 but some threads on here recommends 0w/30. My question is what would happen if the...

Not sure on either. As usual trying to do things on the cheap but maybe a false economy. Gonna take it back and ask

Finally got the clutch put into the car. Originally started slipping around march with a remap and was fine after unistalled but knew it was only matter of time. Got a new orig Honda clutch for £200 and had Honda Chief mechanic install for me on his own time for £180 . Bargain me thinks. However...

This is driving me nuts (no pum intended). I cant believe how many different part no / wheel nuts for honda there are out there. Tried all the breakers yards in my area - no good There are a few sets on ebay and Im thinking about taking a chance. I know that I definately need a 1.5 thread and...

what are they then? tapered?

will the 25mm ones not do the job? must they be 19mm

Yeah , have a Honda, ford died will sort soon but then again as your profile puts you at one years old I guess it's not that important to keep info tight

Yeah been doing a bit of research. Ball seated nuts I need. Will try the breakers yard

Need 16 wheel nuts to pit the stock alloys back on the accord. £3 each from the dealer I'd nearly 50 quid in total. Surely there is another way to source them. Does anyone have any for sale from a previous wheel upgrade? Does anyone know which ones I'm looking for specifically or where I could...

Yeah, I thought that was the case. Have unistalled the map at present though so gonna get a few more weeks or months outta it before getting sorted, then reinstall

Well I have the new clutch now in waiting, but as I live in N. Ireland HH is not really practical. The lead mechanic for honda in my local area will fit it for me. Gonna leave it a while anyway as its not slipping now. Pity really as it makes the map redundant at the mo. Will have a search then...

I eventuallly went ahead and got myself a map by Fahad just last month which was very well handled, quick and an excellent price. However, I removed it last week after the clutch started slipping excessivly. I thought that the map had probably just idetified the problem that was going to arise...

Id say it would be an expensive job bringing the car from N. Irealnd, but thanks anyway :blush:

Yeah was just hoping that not using the cruise would help. Seems not

Interesting stuff. Was over on the civic info forum checking out some wikis when I came across some posts on clutch issues on the accord. Maybe it's been discussed here but a few people were attributed cruise control as a major contributor of clutch failure "I did read Honda were putting the...

Wow that seems remarkably low. Is it because of low profile tyres. My mondeo on standard 17s was 42
