Recently I became aware of a scraping noise coming from the rear off-side on my 55 plate Tourer. Suspecting that it was a brake issue I removed the rear wheel and saw that the metal plate that acts as a cover around the brake disc was very rusty and catching on the disc. I tried to prise it away...

My series 7 Tourer is coming up for 120,000 miles and I want to drain the coolant and replace with new. The manual says - "Only use genuine Honda All Season Antifreeze/Coolant type 2" (page 351), and on page 355 it says "The cooling system contains many aluminium components that can corrode if...

Hi all - some months ago I enquired about removing the plastic inner wheel arch insert (off-side) on my 2005 Accord Tourer to allow me to make repairs to the rusting wheel arch. It proved to be tricky and messy and after a struggle I decided to abandon it. Instead I made a diy repair - removing...

Now that the weather is improving (hopefully) and we have more daylight hours I want to tackle rust that has started to appear on the near-side inner rear wheel arch of my 2005 Tourer. To do this properly I want to remove the inner wheel arch plastic insert so that I can sort out the rust from...

I've recently received a Safety Recall letter from Honda in Hemel Hempstead regarding the passenger side Tekdata Airbag inflator. Apparently this applies to several Honda models including the Accord and Accord Tourer (my car). To quote the letter from Honda - "In the event of an impact where the...

The ABS light on my wife's 1999 Accord ES has recently started to stay on after the initial starting period. In addition, yesterday the needles on the rev counter and speedometer started to flicker for a few seconds and then both fell to zero. Also, the needles on both the fuel gauge and the...

A freak accident (don't ask) has resulted in me breaking the passenger side mirror on my Accord. It means that I have to remove the broken mirror and replace it with the new part from Honda. Has anyone experience of removing the broken mirror? As it's an electric and heated mirror I ***ume it is...

I need a near side front fog light surround (the black plastic bit) or a complete unit for my Mk 7 Accord Tourer (2005). On a couple of occasions recently the complete unit has popped out while I'm driving and just been hanging by the cable. On inspection part of the plastic that snaps into the...

Does any one have a tow bar for sale, plus fittings, electrics etc for a Mk 7 Tourer? If so - what price please? Thanks.

I recently lost the front driver-side cover of the roof-rail on my Accord Tourer. At the time I had roof bars on the roof rails as I was transporting two 4 metre lengths of timber. The cover had come loose a few months earlier and I had super-glued it back on. I ***ume the roof bar, plus the...

I've owned my 2005 Tourer for about two years and while I haven't covered a massive mileage I want to replace the fuel filter. However, while I've looked on www.lingshondaparts for a diagram without luck I can't find its location in the engine bay. Where is it situated? Also, having replaced the...

The one-piece exhaust on my 2005 Accord Tourer will need replacing in the next few months. My local Honda dealer has quoted me £290.00 plus £54.00 fitting for the complete exhaust. This includes the pipework from front to back plus the rear silencer (the complete set), but minus the cat. With a...

I'm sure this question has been asked before - how the hell do I change a headlight bulb (not full beam) on my 2005 Accord Tourer. The MOT is due tomorrow and I thought best to check the lights - n/s headlight bulb gone. A trip to my local car parts emporium and one to use plus a spare. Having...

I own an Accord Tourer 2.0 (2005) and after a short trip yesterday (12 miles) I stepped out of the car and the aroma of hot brake pads hit my nostrils. On checking the rear discs (very hot) and having jacked up the car, the pads are binding on the discs. This is a problem that I had when I owned...

Hi - I recently purchased a 2005 Tourer and it's a lovely car to drive and I'm impressed with it. A few days ago I noticed coolant or water dripping from underneath the car close to the front end of the exhaust. I've had the car up on ramps and there is a small black hose poking out from a hole...

Hi - I've recently acquired (two weeks ago) a 2005 Accord Tourer with 89,000 miles on the clock. This replaces the Civic Aerodeck that I had. My question - does the Accord have a cam belt or a chain? The seller told me a chain but for peace of mind I want to be certain. If it is a chain does it...
