Hi All - back again - Hoping greater minds than mine can diagnose something... 2007 Tourer Diesel 130k - clutch pedal had intermittently been a little slow to return, only once in a while. However yesterday after half an hours driving, depressed the clutch pedal and it stayed on the floor. I...

Cheers, & if my drivers side drive shaft is vibrating/worn will my intermediate shaft be shafted then?

Was wondering what sort of tax I would be looking at on an order of around £300?

Hello all, I'm finally getting round to sorting out my vibrating driveshaft issues on my 06 cdti Tourer.. Absolutely stunned by Honda UK prices for inner joint rebuild kits, I'm looking at ordering the parts from "heel toe automotive" in the USA, which shaves a couple of hundred quid off the...

Hi all - 56 cdti Tourer I've failed the mot on a sheared rear droplink (fixed that on Saturday) and both wipers on front perished. The wipers are the flat aero looking type but I'm a bit confused as to quickest fix.. I'm nowhere near a Honda dealership & time is not on my side. I'd like to keep...

Thanks All. Now, is driveshaft replacement a job for the DIYer? Any good how-to's about?

Hi all. I've got driveshaft issues. Have been aware of it for a while but it's getting progressively worse. Judder under acceleration, feels like I'm on a cross channel ferry, pulling out of port... I've read as many threads on here as I can find. I fear the price of whole new driveshaft from...

300 mile round trip completed today, carrying 4 Touareg wheels/tyres & 4 XC90 wheels/tyres 53mpg average and not a beat missed

Have just done this job, thanks to this excellent thread & others on here. From my experience, a few things that might make it easier (hope that's OK to add) 1. When removing/refitting alternator, as well as radiator shroud & coolant tank removal, it is helpful to undo the air conditioning...

Whoop Whoop touch wood all sorted apart from reattaching the under tray, just come in to warm up with a coffee first. Many thanks to all, especially to those who have provided very informative diy guides on here. The job isn't too hard, more fiddly really. Few tips I can give... 1. When...

EUROCARPARTS - not much use (SWINDON Branch) Picked up alternator this morning and set to it (having got belt from Honda, as despite showing as in stock, ECP didn't have it) Got everything stripped down, got old Alt out and lo and behold, ECP supplied the wrong alternator (but in the right...

Another quick question, as I'll be starting on this later this morning... If I am replacing the belt with the shorter revised version, can anyone see any harm in me starting by simply cutting the old belt off with snips? Then removing the idler pulley, giving a bit more hand room for the...

Thanks for that, not too far from me and comforting to know there's a good indie not too far away. I managed to drive 30 (nervous) miles with no alternator today and have since had the battery on charge. I'll give it a crack tomorrow myself knowing professional help is within reach! For the...

Now, thinking ahead to tomorrow's challenge of changing the alternator, I think it'd be a good idea to change the belt for the revised shorter one.. I'll see if I can find that at ECParts, otherwise I'll call into the Honda dealership after I have picked up the alternator. Can anyone advise...

Cheers Salim - You're a gent! Just been onto EuroCarparts and found they do the Denso Alternator which is very pricey BUT with the xmas discount code, they knock off £130 making it £260, which is still pricey but I think I'd rather have the Denso OEM brand. I've reserved one to collect first...

Further to the above - which might help in confirming the problem, yesterday, I was getting a message on the screen saying that I must start the engine before using the air conditioning (or words to that effect), although the engine was running and the A/C was off... also - any pointers to...

Hi All, not been on here for a while as my CDTi Tourer (2007) has been behaving very well of late - until now... Battery warning light on - have used testers to check battery and it appears that the alternator has packed in. Battery is at 12.3v when engine off and much the same when engine...

Hi All - I can't find the answer to this anywhere... Accord Tourer 2007 Diesel. How can I lock the car but WITHOUT the alarm being set - I need to do this, when popping into a petrol station for instance with my dog still in the car, sometimes with a window open. On my last car (not Honda) I...

Hi All - loving my Accord Tourer so far after a couple of months of ownership. Just have a couple of questions ref rear brakes. One of the disk dust shields has fallen/rusted apart - just had the wheel off to inspect and was able to just pull this part off. It had rusted away at the fixing...

Grom audio BT3 box recieved this morning - installed & it appears to be completely plug&play - finally, very pleased to have sounds in car. Not yet connected Microphone etc up for calls but have set up phone to launch "drive Mode" when Bluetooth activated - automatically connects to stereo...
