    Random brake lights

    My 2007 Accord Tourer has got some sort of gremlin that is causing the brake lights to be a bit random. They only come on when the brake pedal is pressed (so far, so good) but which ones illuminute changes all the time. The two left ones are consistent and operate as expected the spoiler-mounted...

Should be simple, but it seems that there are at least two, and maybe three, different sizes of brake pads used depending on the manufacturer of the braking system. The choices are between Teves, Lucas and Akebono, and each...

    Alarm continually going off

    The alarm on my 2007 accord 2.2 tourer keeps going off, and I can't stop it using the unlock-lock-unlock with the key. I had to start the car and drive off to a remote spot with the alarm going off. After about 15 mins driving the alarm stopped. I drove home, parked up and as soon as I opened...

    Low voltage at power outlet

    Hi all, My 2007 Accord Tourer is giving me a headache. Bought a mini compressor to blow up my paddleboard. Plugged it in to the power outlet in the boot and nothing worked. Thought it would be the fuse - nope, that seems fine. Checked for voltage at the plug (ie where the loom plugs into the...
