if that was used, thats a little on the expensive side :lol:

M8 I was looking at the Audi A4 1.8T just to many issues, nice to drive but not a touch on the Accord. IMHO the Accord is also better screwed together!!! my m8 had a low mileage A3 and then S4 and they were both full of rattles, my Accord had twice the mileage with none. For 6k you can pick up a...

Fahad, do the engine oil and most of the mechanical bits myself :lol:

Ok good news is that my compressor is not in bits. It seems that the system had been over gassed and the rather loud explosion and venting of gas/oil was the pressure relief valve opening :o :o So a big thanks to HH/CJ for sorting and regas. I will be booking myself in this time next year :D...

Brett nice write up m8, but as above you do not have to remove the glove box, just open the box and push in the sides at the back (were the lugs stop the glove box from fully opening). I hope you understand what I am trying to explain ;)

Nice write up m8 :lol: Took me about an hour, but I removed the under tray to, I wished I had not due to most of the bolts being very corroded

Just replaced mine with a genuine Honda one. However, the one that was removed was a Yuasa. I think CJ purchased a Yuasa 053, need to check. I went with Honda, easier to deal with if you have an issue. My local dealer done it for just over £55, gave me the same discount as they do for the S2000...

Looks like I will be attending, seems that the Accord wanted to go all along...lol lol Dan might drive up with you. Has anyone read up on black death in regards to modern air con!!

I now agree, its one of them things, I change the oil every 6k, gearbox oil every 1.5-2years and everything else routinely, but have paid no attention to the poor old air con!! I imagine most people are the same!! Might try to see if I can make it, but it will not be until late this week before...

I feel the reason it went bang was probably self inflicted. I have come to this conclusion after a several Cobra's and few hours on the net lol lol If anyone finds a late Accord, please let me know. CJ do you know if the same compressor was fitted to the late accords? I will do some digging...

A few Cobra's later, here is the link to just frighten OZ....lol lol Major AC Problems One of many threads I afraid, Probably a different compressor from the UK Accord as I cannot find any reports. Well at least I am going to be getting a few more BHP and MPG!!!

My air con compressor has just gone bang, smoke out of the side of it and oil all over the floor. I am so ****ed at the moment, just googled it on the TSX/CRV and seems very common on the 2004 models, to damn common!!!!, lost of reports and well reported on the American forums So any help at...

When my windscreen was fitted (genuine), the clip for the mirror was already stuck to the windscreen and he just slide the mirror on. The mirror looks like its in the same position as mine, but mine has no rain sensitive wipers :rolleyes:

I thought a DMF was around the £350 mark, I hope that they did not charge your the rest in labour :lol: :)

Dan, I think you will find the newer A-Spec setup is harder than what Fahad has fitted to his car. The handling, well all I can say is that I am in need of new front tyres soon B)

I thought I had seen this done before :ph34r:

my next mod :lol:, the current boot button is useless :ph34r: Anyone interested in a group buy cheap gas struts if you buy five or more. I have also seen a TSX using gas struts to open the bonnet B) Anyone know the stroke length?

It does matter what side is fitted to the sump, I believe the washer is made of two types of metal, one side soft (matt side) the other hard. The soft side goes to the sump. Well I think I am right

Alan, what is your redline set to. This is becoming more and more tempting, might have to pop down and see Dan and request a test drive :D
