Ignore. Found the relevant post :) http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/1383-hft/?p=19836

Hi Everyone, I suspect my accord's battery drainage issue has been caused by my dead bluetooth module. Has anyone got a tutorial on how to remove this? My Accord has the satnav. I have once removed the whole unit a long time ago to install the XCarlink to connect my iPod. Question: Do I need...

F6had, I'll message your inbox on the repair option.

Thanks. I'm in Reading. Where is your mechanic? I don't mind driving somewhere reasonable as long as I get the car fixed.

Thanks Fahad/SirHansen. You're right SH, the problem nut is rounded off. The spraying of the anti-rust a few days before the actual work makes sense. I have stressed him not to remove the engine and I will take the car elsewhere. Back to square one.

I'm sure it is. Shall I tell to him stop? He's planning on pulling off this audacious effort tomorrow. He is currently struggling to remove a bolt (3rd one) from the manifold and he's trying from beneath the engine but with little space to manoeuvre.

Update: Garage guy is going to take the engine out. Overkill surely?

I bought a manifold from ebay to replace the cracked one on my 2006 accord . Asked my local garage guy to replace it. He's having trouble removing some of the rusty bolts, lol. :D :( I told him he should use anti rust fluid and he replied he has tried wd40 :D What anti rust fluid should we...

Disconnected the negative connection to the battery for 2 hours. No warning lights or anything and I'm still experiencing engine cuts as soon as I hit 2500 and then it settles at 2100. On the rare occasion the engine once accelerated to 3100. I would like to think that maybe the issue is...

No ECU warning light but the car struggles to accelerate when the RPM hits around 2200.

Lol, indeed. Sorry Jon, maybe I didnt mention but there are no warning lights whatsoever now. But I will try disconnecting the battery to clear the ECU.

Hi Jon, Turns out the "warning light" was only appearing when I was pressing the VSA button. Of course that warning light is to confirm that VSA has been manually turned off. Other than this I have no xmas tree lights anywhere :) Given this new information, how do I fix this wretched limp mode...

Thanks for the clarification montempeaux :) So it seems the VSA issue has been resolved :) I wonder what time would it be useful to switch off the VSA option?

The fuse was faulty/blown.

It was a fuse my local garage guy replaced it for free. Question: did the replaced bulb blow too?

The headlight fuse is missing...lol But then how can the other one work? Number 3 slot is where the headlight fuse goes...according to the fusebox legend map behind the cover. It also uses a 15A fuse, another 2 use the same fuse. I tried the swapping tactic...it didnt work. I am sure i...

Thanks Shabz, will pay a bit more attention and look out for this.

Thanks Jon, where is the fusebox on the 2006 model? Edit: Ok I went down to the office car park and checked myself. The fusebox is on the bottom RHS. Not easy to pull out the fuses, either I need steel nails or an appropriate tool. One question Jon, if the headlight fuse is gone...it would...

Indeed Jon :( Where can I get a cheap OBD2 reader? Easy to use myself?

I know Jon, it was evening time and I rushed myself to get the light replaced. My local trusted garage would have done it for free as I know the guy v well. But they were closed at that time. I am going to pre-order some H1 from Amazon as stock. Dont have my own garage space and park on the...
