Good afternoon, Can anyone help me please? Checked my levels the other day and topped up the power steering fluid. Just been under the car to change the oil and there is fluid everywhere, and the power steering reservoir is below minimum level, that and the yellowy colour of the fluid tells me...

Hi all. Had a strange day in the car today. First of all, this morning I noticed an almost undetectable whining sound, so faint I almost wasn't sure it was even there. Then this evening the whine was definitely louder. This sounded similar to the screen washer pump. Then the big one, driving...

Hi all. I've just had a little work done on my car at the local Honda dealer and they did a general check at the time. The report says the exhaust "front section" is blowing. Has anyone done this exact job? I'm just trying to work out the exact piece they are referring to. I have looked at the...

So i have a tiny bird in the actual headlamp ***embly. Not sure how it got in, but its struggling to get out. And i fear it will have perished by morning. But a few questions anyway please. Am I right in saying the headlights can't be split? I think I remember people talking about baking the...

Anyone come across this problem please? It started a few months ago, got worse and i presumed it would be a bush and it would get picked up on the MOT. It didn't. I wonder if it may be the actual damper. Input welcome. Thanks all.

Hi guys. My handbrake all of a sudden came up really high, and when i released it the n/s/r brake was stuck on. I managed to release it but the handbrake is still very high when applied. Is this an obvious case of a sticking caliper? I don't mind getting my hands dirty, but not so good at...

Hello guys. My car has just developed a minor problem. If I slow but stay in the same gear then try and pull away, if the revs are particularly low, 1000ish, occasionally i get a slight hesitation/stutter. It doesn't happen every time, and usually clears very quickly and pulls away. Any ideas...

Hi all. Anyone else experienced this? It seems to have appeared from nowhere. The NSR seems to be the offending area. Im presuming a bush is the likely source, just wondering if anyone else has had it. Cheers.

Hi. The orange warning light came on so I took the car to be diagnosed. Although I forgot to ask for the code, the chap said it was a fault with the front left wheel ABS sensor. We chatted a little and he spoke about the cog/bearing thingy that has the teeth that the sensor reads may be damaged...

Hi. Had an mot fail due to insufficient performance on nsr braking. Im guessing a siezed caliper. Anyone had any experience of buying or repairing one recently? Right better go start the search! Thanks for any advice. Cheers all.

Hi all. Set off to work this morning and the car went into limp mode within 200 yards. Never happened to me before. RAC turned up and got a throttle position sensor fault code, although this was a historic fault code as the car ran fine at that time. I am wondering what my best option is...

I cant believe this happened. My near side dip beam was out. The ulb looked ok so thought i would try it in the off side. No joy. Whilst re fitting good bulbit slipped from my fingers and dropped onto the black plastic cowling that the weather seal screws into. Whilst retrieving this i pushed it...

As the ***le says i noticed today that niether is working. Going to check the fuse tomorrow as they are not stuck and it isnt cold. Any other ideas please? Do they stop working if the water is low or anything? Thanks in advance.

I wont bore you with the details. But a little advice is welcome please. The head mechanic at my local Honda dealer said that even if the serial/part numbers were not identical, if the module came off the same model car ofabout the same age it should work. Anyone ever changed for one with a...

Just had the car mot done and it failed. Guy said it had broke but reading the report it says only insecure. Is it a straightforward job to replace? More annoyed with the fact that after being diagnosed with a VSA modulator fault and asking the Honda garage where i get its mot done if it would...

Heard from Honda today. Not what I was hoping for. As a good will gesture, they will knock £200 off the £1400 asking price of the modulator. The previous in house (BT) full service history counts for nothing so as a cosequence I am know looking for a second hand 2006 VSA modulator. Anyone gone...

Had the bad news today. As pointed out previously, the extended warranty covers cars up to 62000 miles. Mine's done 72. Awaiting Honda customer services to call back and hoping something can be sorted as 62000 miles is an odd number to me for 6 year old cars as I believe the extension to cover.

Today upon start up my VSA light was on! Not good. I rang the local dealer and was advised it was ok to drive. When I got back from the hospital I rang again and was told if its the modulator, the price would be around £1500. But the warranty period was extended so I should be covered! A stroke...

The bulb (I hope) that illuminates the switch that controls the passenger heated seat has failed. Anyone replaced this, or know how to remove the console in order to replace it? Cheers all.
