today while driving the power steering also went a little stiffer than normal. however, later on when driving home it was fine again! I'll get the battery checked at halfords

I was driving back home tonight and was slowing for a roundabout when the power steering went and on the dash the oil light and battery light came on. The engine was still ticking over so i pulled to the side of the road and turned it off. After 2 seconds i started the engine again and all was...

sadly its only a 5 speed box.

Yeah so far just twice but I should probably mention the guys at HH recommended I change the DMF last week as it was on its way out and causing vibration. Its going to HH this week to get a full DMF and clutch kit fitted so the gearbox oil and clutch oil will get done then too right? If it...

so far it has only happened twice and the rest of the time its fine. When you say gearbox you mean its on its way out?

Hi guys, Today and yesterday I had just started my car and tried to select reverse gear but even though the stick went into reverse position the gear was not selected. Anyone know what this means in terms of where the problem lies? DMF? Clutch? Gearbox? any help would be appreciated. thanks

All seems fine now, it started very quickly and I cant see any problems so happy days! cheers guys! just gotta sort out the knocking at the front and the intermittent window motor and i think i'm done :)

i'll get it booked into Honda for a check. I'll keep you posted. Cheers, Lee

Yeah that was the drop link, or I think it is at least. Will have to check the receipt...

Hi Brett it has a 3 year warranty i think. Thanks again! :)

I was really asking to see if anyone had come across this before so when i do take it to Honda to be looked at they have something to go on. Last time i took it to Chiswick Honda they only suggested the drop link which was then done at HH. However the knock is still there.

no its completely fine

and the knock only happens once until i either slow down again or accelerate again then it will happen again.

only through the steering wheel lol

Just put it in and all seems fine now. It cranks much quicker but I will check this tomorrow morning to know for sure. Thanks all :)

Third problem in as many weeks lol but hopefully this will be an easy one. I am feeling a knock through the steering when accelerating and braking its not massive but definitely noticeable. It feels like there is some sort of part moving but thats as much as i can tell at the moment. Anyone...

Ok i got the battery today but before i fit it, is there anything I need to do on this car in preparation? I mean will i lose functionality of the radio or anything after the reset? also it it the negative terminal that i remove first? Cheers!

I agree Brett, I have just ordered a Bosch S5 Silver and should get it next week some time. Out of interest, is that a good choice for the Accord? I will let you all know if this corrects the problem :)

Right then, new battery it is! I'll chuck one in when I get back home on Tuesday and will let you all know if it's sorted. As always thanks guys I appreciate it.

You don't suspect the alternator? I will be much happier if the battery is the cause though :)
