Phil I've had this problem when you changed the pads and discs did you put some copper slip on the back of the pads and where they sit in the carriers, also did you give the caliper and carrier a good clean. If they are binding they will be hot and you'll get a burning smell. Best thing to do...

Just came across this nice write up and great pics cheers, I may have to do this if I want to get the loose sidelight bulb out of my O/S head lamp!!

I've just used carplan tyre dressing on mine i'll see how it goes at the mo they look nice and shiny and black :D

Took a cpl of hours getting everything off doesn't take that long it's the cleaning that take the time!

Cheers for the photo's Dan and for the ***istance today I'll do some research into removing the inlet manifold. It def needs cleaning out.

Carl TBH I don't think they gave me the code but said it was the Frequency solenoid part No 36190-RBD-E01 and said it was working 50% of the time ?? the EGR and IMRC have now been cleaned as best as I could and they were pretty bad, I've just order some BG244 as well from power enhancer...

Cheers brett just read this thread with interest, funnt thing is I have no hesitation or other running problems makes me wonder if I need to spen £100+ on the the frequency solenoid, having said that it does seem to be an intermittant fault. :(

Guys what type of reader do you have I guess e bay is the place to go once the codes are read I guess it's just a number > Where do you find out what the number means.

I'll clean the EGR first wont really cost me anything and might sort the problem the light is still coming on and off. If I clean the EGR and the IMRC is fine will the light go out premenantly or will it need another £40 spending on a diagnostic check

car has been checked and two faults came up EGR valve is not functioning needs cleaning, and Frequency solenoid (IMRC valve) which is £105 +vat :o I'll be in touch with HH for this thanks to CJ

Simon if your car is a tourer you don't need one they just push in. Otherwise try machine mart

Guy's today the engine mangement light came on and stays on. My wife was driving it at the time and has covered about 25 miles with it on, I've not driven it myself and I am hesitant to do so due to the warnings in the owners manual. She tells me the car is driving normally doesn't lose power...

I'm watching this with interest I'v got some LED's I was given last year not used them yet

I have the same issue drivers seat seems to move about 1cm even when locked into place a bit annoying more than anything.

Brett is right I called Holdcroft and got a price for the service kit I then mentioned Howards Honda and their price on e bay. They matched the price and sent them free post. I should point out that this is somethin I did of my own back as a TA member and should not be bounded about, nor do I...

Nice one Brett glad you got it sorted I know how concerned you were. Cheers again for the oil hope you enjoyed the wine

Brett main,high,full what ever you call it beam is H1 why don't you just fit another set of HID's as suggested the bulbs you've chosen wont be brighter than HID's

Mine's on 86K as far as I can tell from the service history it's the original clutch and had no problems so far. Mixture of driving both slippers and spirited :ph34r: I also think being sympathetic to how the car is driven and treated makes a difference, a bit like how you use your brakes if...
