Well the latest is that I picked up the car and said that I would live with it for now, got them to throw in a service and haggled on what I paid them, well for the first 50 miles the problem seemed to dissapear. but on my drive back home it did it twice, I still cannot believe it is the...

Sound like you had fun and a great post, what and where do you get the BG244 stuff from, is yours a facelift iCDTi ? is the EGR solenoid or vacume operated? Nigel

An enigma what a great discription, I am not ure where to go from here, the only turbo fault i can undrstand is tha the variable weins are sticking some how so was wondering if anyone else has had similar symptoms of if they thought a strong diesel claener could help? Due to pic the car up on...

The car has had a regular service at Honda so I suppose the proper oil, Adam the symptoms are strange too see thread http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/612-help-intermittent-loss-of-power-icdti/

The latest, the garage have just called and now they are convinced it is the Turbo, they blanked of the EGR and extended the control to an EGR that they could sit in the passenger seat, they said that could see it operating correctly (originally they said it was OK when they blanked the EGR...

Has anyone had any turbo problems and does anyone now the best place to source one? The garage are 99% confindent that this is what it is in that the variable veigns are sticking hence the intermittat symptoms. I was also wondering if a fuel addative could help? Nigel

I ***ume you took the cover off? Any signs of fumes getting into the cabin in traffic ? as the other known problem in his area is weld on the inlet manifold cracking, again this is a warranty item, timming chain rattle is fairly distinctive so I would not think it is this unless the tensioner...

I usually get 500 to a tank, my wife gets about 550, You may of read that on another thread I am having EGR problems, as part of that fix it has a new MAF and they are cleaning all of the components round the EGR too, so it will be a good benchmark test, ***uming it gets fixed. Oh and I...

Ok bet I know what that is, as part of the timming chain change they replace the injectors and they are known to have a probem seating correctly, I had this it was occasionally there but not all the time, I only got to the bottom of it when I could smell fumes in the cabin when in traffic...

Thanks Sufian for the explanations, I certainly know a little more about the systems, I notice that you run an iCDTi, can you be more specific about the system in the Accord, mine is electroniclly operated (not the later vacume type) and have you come across any issues that could point to the...

Thanks I will be sure to post the results stilll trying to work out how the electronic control is driven. The dealership has given me a civic, I am not back in Cambridge until Monday now so it will be another week. They have ***ured me that they will not charge me for all the labour but i...

Hi there it is a 2005 and has an electronic EGR operated by a solenoid. Interstingly I think the latest versions of the engines (my bro has a 2008 CRV) are operated by vacume, guess I could swap the engines as he has moved abroad and left me to sell it :lol:

The latest, just got off the phone, yesterday I said to them that I suspected the control of EGR and recommended that they took the spare one they have and strap it to next to the one fitted and move the control connection over well guess what all is well. They say they got back onto Honda HQ...

Just waiting for a call from them now, yup it was Dave, he was very helpful and actually came to my house in the end, guess if I get this sorted I will have to tap him up for a further map. Will keep you posted, I apprciate you following up with Dave, Nigel Nigel

Many thanks for all your suggestions, I think it was Andy fro elite emaps, he was the owner and i got it done on the back of one of teh seeions that Fahad organised, but he came down to me. Graet guy and certainly new his stuff. The garage say that they have changed the fuel filter as well...

The diagnosticas are saying that when the problem occurs there is not enough air getting into the system, they have done vacume tests (mitivac or something) everything is OK until it happens. The dealership is John Banks Honda in Cambridge which is near my office is. The car does have an...

I posted a problem with my car some time ago on related site in that occasionally it looses a power. The symptom is that after accelerating normally you cruise to say a roundabout and apply power again and nothing is there, sometimes baking off and accelerating again cures it. When this happens...
