Changed them yesterday. Have access to a lifter so changing them without lowering the sub frame went fine. Little tight space at the bolt in the back but could get them in and out without any problems.

Its a 8th gen

Do i need to loosen the sub frame to change the front sway bar bushings? 2009 Tourer DTEC.

You sure about that? under the rubbermat, towards the AUX/USB connectors there is a "hatch" that can be opened on my 09 EX, but its a little hard to open, so you need to use some force with a screwdriver.

Ok thanks for your reply!. however, i can move the arm from the actuator and it move freely. After i cleared the fault code it have not come back and the car runs like it should. Have taken the car out on the highway and took it for a really good drive today and still no fault code back.

Cleaning the turbo is straight forward once it's out? Any parts/sealings needed?

I also got this fault code this morning. Slow acceleration cold engine and the engine lamp came on. Stopped/started the car and it was running ok after that. Cleared the fault code, took it for a ride and it was running normal. Is cleaning/replacing the only option here?

Little late reply but; The problem was actually a lose glow plug on cylinder 4. Its tight space around the glow plug on the fourth cylinder so the socket that i used to tighten the glow plug actually got a little stuck if i put it all the way down over the glow plug, so when the plug felt...

I changed all my glow plugs some months ago (ORIGINAL HONDA) and everything have been fine since then. However, the PGM-FI lamp has come back and i read out the first time; Glow Plug Curcuit Open on Plug 2 and 4. I suspect the wiring/connector, took them off and tighten the metal with pliers...

Ok thanks again.

New filter in place, and i reset the ash counter. On the differential pressure sensor it said only reset if sensor has been replaced (it said nothing about dpf) and i think it said after replacing the sensor it needed a regen, so i did not reset it. This is with original Honda equipment..

Yes, they estimated around 1420 Pounds (15000 NOK) for the job. But my impression was that they did not know these cars at all. Yes, you can move to Norway, i will be your first costumer :D After new DPF in installed, reset ash counter and differential pressure sensor? and im good to go?

A little update on my car, is that my DPF lamp come on again on monday going to work, so the forced regen lasted three days. This time i had the exclamation mark. New Original Honda filter costed me around 760 pounds with discount (8000NOK) while removal, EGR OFF and tuning cost twice as much...

I guess its its not possible to answer that question :P, but; From your experience, how many km should i expect out of it from now?

Forced regen is not something im gonna keep doing, i rather buy a new filter than risk filling my oil with diesel and stress the injectors and turbo. I noticed my oil level rised a bit after the forced regen yesterday, so gonna change my oil on monday, I work with Skoda, and DPF issues is not...

Removing it and have a remap would have been the best of course, but i need to find someone who have done this before on these cars, but there is not a whole lot of these cars sold here in Norway. I had the DPF light without the Exclamation mark, but i decided to do a forced regen. Even it was...

Ok thanks for the info, will opt for a genuine one then.. I have access to Honda HDS at work as we have been a Honda dealer before (now only a Service Point). should i replace the differential pressure sensor also?

There will be no issues fitting a non Honda DPF? i see there is alot on eBay, does not matter if i just buy a non name form there? Yes, initialisation of the differential pressure sensor i know about that. The sensors need to be removed, yes. :)

So at 134340km the DPF light came up, and i have pretty much decided to replace the DPF whenever the light come on, so i dont have to drive around not knowing when its gonna come on again again next time. I have forced regen it for now, but it will come on again sooner or later. How much work...

Yes, DPF is still there. Gearbox fluid level is where it should be. flushed last year. Its not every time, but it seems to happens when the Torque is at its highest, low rpm and WOT. I actually had an Audi 2.2 20VT that was also hesitating like this if i went full throttle on low rpm. My guess...
