Glad to see the pictures came in handy. The Spanner I used was a Hallmark RRXL14, from the local car parts shop for about £20, there are probably cheaper options out there, but I wanted one the same day as the weather was good that day, (problem with working on the driveway). Regards Sam

After Reading this thread, I decided to go order one and hey presto 3 weeks later it turn up: Inside the box was a section of loom with connectors on, an ECU and some mounting hardware: To fit it to the car I started by removing the panel covering the bottom of the A pillar, this just pulls...

Thanks Brett So Heres the old belt: First I took off the drivers side wheel and found this little panel: Its comes off with a couple of clips giving access to the bottom two pulleys: Then I used an extra-long 14mm Ring spanner on the tensioner to release pressure by pulling it towards the...

Just Replaced the Belt!!! Not too difficult just a bit fiddly, I used a long 14mm ring spanner on the tensioner to release pressure on the belt and I took a panel out the wheel arch to get to the bottom pulleys. I would upload some pictures but not sure how now that photobucket has stopped working.

Hi All, I have been and got a belt from the local parts place (its a DAYCO branded belt, anyone know if there any good?), I am going to try fitting it this week end. Thanks Sam

Thanks for that, sounds simple enough, although I think the video is of a different accord as it shows 3.0 V6? I am going down the local car parts shop later to see if I can get a replacement if not I’ll go to Honda and try and get one from them. Thanks Sam

No, but its got cracks alone it and the cars done over 150K miles.

Hi all, I am looking to change the Aux Belt on my 2009 2.2 Diesel 8th Gen Accord. I have looked round online but can't find much info on the 8th gen. Theres lots of info on the 7th gen, is that similar? Thanks Sam

Its out! I sprayed it with Penetrating oil all week, then used the bolt extractor set when it arrived yesterday. Very impressed with the bolt extractor! The filter looked like it needed changing, very black. and the cap had a white dot on so guess its the new type? Sam

Thanks for all the replies guys. The bolt is completely rounded on all sides and there is no room for mole grips as the pipe is too close, I had a look around for a replacement cap with that part number but the cheapest I could find was £75. I might try cutting the bolt head off with a Dremel if...

Hi There I was looking to change the Diesel filter on my 2009 Accord following this guide: http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/9049-diy-8th-gen-idtec-diesel-fuel-filter-change/ All went well until I went to remove the bolt holding the hose to the cap. It has been rounded, I am able to grip it...
