    I don't get this...

    Not Honda related but looking for a cheap estate to replace my beloved Accord when ULEZ is eventually extended and came across this. It's a diesel, Euro 4 yet according to the description and the TFL government website it is ULEZ compliant. How on earth is that possible when anything diesel...

    Need a key

    The last thread on this was ten years old. I can get a trasnponder key for £60 or a remote key for £100. https://www.car-key-cutting.co.uk/p/honda-key.html Any other options?

    K24 engine in both the Mk7 and Mk8 2.4l petrol tourers.

    I'll have to get rid of my Mk7 icdti as I'll be living in the ULEZ when it's expanded so I'm on the look out. I don't know anything about these other than they are a tuner's delight and VTEC s tend to be fairly bomb proof. Is it basically the same engine in both models of the car and what do I...

    CV boot replacement

    I did this two or three years ago or so but can't remember, do folks use those installation cones to save having to pull things apart? Honda want sixty quid a side. LoL.

    Service Manual Woes

    Evening, it's been a while. Anybody know what else is required to get the IE service manual up and running? I did a fresh install but all I get is "There is no shop manual to apply" when doing a search. I can't remember but aren't there some Actvie X settings that to be enabled or not? Any...

    Jack set and space saver for tourer.

    I absolutely hate travelling around with just a bottle of goo and a mini compressor so I found someone selling a 17" space saver together with a loose jack set for reasonable money. For one reason or another I only received the space saver so after ebay found in my favour I'm now looking for a...

    Another faulty tailgate

    Having read around the issue I'm pretty sure the loom is partly broken hence the partial failure which powers open and shut but doesn't completely latch and I can't open manually. It's not the fault finding and repair I'm too bothered about it's mucking about with the headliner. How easy is...

    AC compressor fix

    Mine needed replacing so I doubled down on a second hand unit from fleabay (tested apparently) and a compressor pulley refurb kit that took about two months from China. The pulley kit looks remarkably well made but is smaller (by about 10mm diameter) compared to an original pulley. My question...

    Hidden fuse box?

    Odd one, had an intermitantly loose connection on my O/S headlamp bulb so most of the time it would work until I hit a bump and then I'd give it a thump to get it back Thought I'd finally sort it by reaching in by hand and having a fiddle but access is poor as you know but it seemed I managed...

    Stage 2 remap and EGR blanking from Premier Tuning

    Thanks to Fahad for travelling South and remaping my tourer, fast and efficient service it pulls like a train especially mid-range. He's also far too good looking to be getting his hands dirty, so said my soon to be ex-wife. ;) All the best.

    Another tailgate issue.

    Thought I'd dodged most of them, hoping someone will read this and know exactly what the problem is. When the tailgate lowers remotely it doesn't latch and I can't open it either remotely or manually. When I slam it shut manually I can open it remotely but not manually. I'll get some contact...

    Think this'll fit?

    There seem to be quite a few post facelift grills available from Russia, never have liked the chromed grill on the face of mine...

    As part of front suspension overhall I want to remove knuckle to replace bottom ball joint (See STUCK LCA bolt) anyhow you guessed it ABS sensor bolt broke and sensor is stuck fast nor can I get to the loom connection very easily.

    STUCK BOLT - replacing front lower control arms.

    Thought I'd do it on a nice day but I'm not surprised, bolt is well an truly stuck inside the sleeve. I used plenty of heat to get it unscrewed from the captive nut but it's stuck with no room to drive it out. It's being soaked overnight in pentrating fluid but I doubt that'll work, do I have...

    Member Vehicle I.D

    It's not a problem but it was handy knowing what model the member posting had at a glance with the old forum, saves asking halfway down a thread. I belong to a few technical forums where they insist on putting your spec details in your signature, oils the wheels of the forum so to speak.

    AC pressure switch part number?

    AC is playing up and I've been told it's the compressor. Still I'd like to change the pressure switch as it's a common fault. Am I being dim, I can't seem to find the AC circuit anywhere in the catalogue? https://honda-europe.epc-data.com/accord_tourer/2007_6mt/773/

Thanks for the clarification, I only seem to be able to...

    As the ***le says, it has a really good search and parts ID facility and prices are keen even when including postage from Germany.
