We could park at least four cars on our drive! But we don really want a bigger fleet - the wife has her car and I have mine. Good suggestion though thanks. I have to weigh up the you-only-live-once vs acceptable running costs given kids balance.

I have had my V6 for two and a half years. It's a silver 1999 'T' with 105k and in good nick. Huge wad of service history, 4 good Michelin Premacy HPs, new Honda battery and entire new cat back OEM exhaust last year. The only problem I have had with it other than consumables was a hot starting...

Thank you hughezee.

Hi, I had to have the entire catalyst-back system replaced on my V6 a couple of months back. The options seemed to be a custom stainless system, an OEM exhaust (which I went for in the end) or perhaps you might get lucky on eBay/gumtree/local breakers if someone is breaking one. The cars are old...

Hi all, Just checking its 10w40 semi synthetic for my V6 here in the UK? Thanks!

Hiya , The headlamp washers have packed up on my V6 coupe. I can hear what I think is the relay clicking when I press the button but the pump doesn't come on. Dead pump? Tricky to replace? Any advice appreciated! Thanks

Tell us more about your Coupe. There's not many of us Coupe owners on here ( < 10 I think)! Is it a 2.0 or a 3.0? Pleased with it?

This is exactly how mine behaves. It's a bit rubbish isn't it - but functioining correctly nonetheless! It's a coupe - they clearly devoted only a tiny percentage of their brain power to rear seat passengers entry and egress!

Thank - God what a g1t it is! Just can't budge it! I have decided to relocate the new one as I have at least managed to disconnect the plug from the old relay! Plugged the new one in and just gone for a quick burn for 15mins, stopped for a couple of mins to simulate filling up / getting a...

OK - Lee from HH has supplied me with a new relay (I will leave +ve feedback in the HH section once the blasted new relay is in, as he was uber helpful). It needs to go in ASAP because the car wouldnt hot start again tonight. So has anyone got practical experience getting the old one out...

Thanks Linas - you certainly know your stuff.

OK - I don't have a soldering iron (or any skills even if i had one). Can anyone confirm this is the right part number for a '99 V6 coupe? Would like to be confident I know what I am asking for at Honda or even eBay! 98-02 Honda Accord 39400-S84-A01 or 39400-S84-003 RZ-0159* / RZ-0158**...

Hello All, Sorry for thread resurrection. My Coupe V6 suffers from this hot start issue on occasions. Does anyone happen to know the part number and/or cost of the main relay for the Yank Tank V6 Coupe please? Mine is a 1999 T-reg. Matt1600s - don't know if you still have your Coupe, but is...

I beg to differ on "some" Ford and Vx seats. The leather seats in my C-Max (Ghia 2.0TDCi) are fantastic for long journeys. Also the leather ones in a Cav V6 CDX were good and those in my mate's old Omega Elite excellent. The seats in a Ka we had briefly (hideous pile of cr*p car) were easily the...

I have genuine :lol: walnut trim on my electric window switches each side and all along on the centre console. Mine is a Coupe '99 3.0. Luckily I don't have it on the main dash surround.

My 3.0 Coupe has a button on the door to turn on the heated mirrors, which is just daft! Why not link it to rear demist like every other car in the World!

Hello All, OSR tail light is out (brake light OK). I popped up to local motor shop who promptly sold me a "380" twin filament bulb. When fitting it tonight I find it's not a "round" bayonet style bulb but more of a blade fitting. Just wondering where do you 1999 Coupe owners get your bulbs...

Looking at pictures of people selling Coupe's online, the original tape cassette headunit was a BOSE. I've just been out for a look and I too have the two little TDK boxes in the boot between the speakers. I can't see any BOSE labels though. I can see that my rear speakers say Mexico on them...

Thanks Simon - appreciated. I will check for all those items on the invoices for the last service or two. Tyre pressure, air filter and wheel-spinning I'll check myself at weekend.

Hello There, I'm a newbie! I have posted an entry on the Newbies forum to say hi. I have just got myself a 1999 Coupe 3.0i V6 as my toy. I absolutely love it. It is by far the most relaxing and refined car I have ever owned. I was just wondering what MPG other owners are getting from their...
