I open the windows straight after getting in, drvers door and left rear window which starts up a small cyclone inside once moving.

I found the original sensors with the car had fallen apart through age, there is athread about drilling out the debris and cleaning the interior on the site. A replacement sensor later on turned out to be out of spec and the ECU would not read the pulses correctly. No issue with the magnetic...

Thank you for the advice. I will check the tool in the box again, have a good look through the video this weekend (it looks to be rain for a few hours), and see if buying something different will give me a second chance at getting it right. Measure twice......

Ah, alignment tool. The kit comes with a plastic threaded version, (and the paperwork mentions a pressure dial) Should I be looking at getting more bits before stripping down ?

Jetwashed inside and out and everything looks accessible but has shown up the continued demise of two of the engine mount rubbers. One cheap battery ratchet wrench on order.

Quick question Once the gearbox oil is drained, and the appropriate suspension bolts removed, do the driveshafts really pop out like in the video or have I missed something ?

You are an absolute star. I think from watching everything so far (the dismantle and cleaning of the bell housing internals) I might just be able to carry it out here. Just looking at the raft of tools the only thing I am missing is the second set of axle stands and the leccy torque tool...

I didn't read correctly the loss of indicators was/is a classic symptom of flawed mapping, apologies

Just wondering if you have had any issue with potholes in the past six to twelve months and your current local council response to liability when running over them. Have you checked for damage to alloy wheels, replaced tyres or had to inflate/check pressures in a similar timeframe ?

OK, I took the plunge on pay day and bought the kit that claimed to have compatibility with the 22105-PGE-325 version (and two earlier numbers). Since I was also entitled to a 20% discount on the day I got the clutch/plate/bearing for a shade over £100 so ***ume it is identical to the type...

Could it possibly be one or two circuits failing intermittently, whilst I have no experience of the Mk8 have there been instances of damp/corrosion in / around the fusebox/relay areas ?

Internals first or you end up with a front yard ornament.

Only a diesel here, but I had scrape/wear marks on the wiper area of the throttle position sensor (about 4.30 on the image) that meant the car would have a wobble if I left the pedal for too long at a certain position After seven years of using good electricval cleaner on the contacts outside...

Not forgetting the cost of a decent oil change before the service interval on an unknown engine will pay the owner back in spades.

Not thicker oil........

Completely alien dials / dashboard to my 05 estate but similar mileage for the year difference. I've had almost a decade of fun with mine. How much and did you get the service history ?

Thank you. It is quite an eye opener to see the various clutch options from aftermarket suppliers marked with identical Honda reference numbers, though I ***ume the genuine box of parts was somewhat more than £120. The only common links are the diameter - 240mm - and the number of bits in the...

Sounds like an internal alarm at the beginning (doors ?) Can you put the mobile nearer the engine ?

Thank you.

Ah, misread your post earlier. So there is a third variant.
