ill be changing both lower arms and the one upper. dont suppose you have a link to jayok's post or video do you? i see hes a prolific poster so trawling through all his posts could take a while!

i hope it is, replacement arms ordered! i really couldnt be arsed to fanny about pressing bushes into arms so these arms might cost a bit more but its a lot easier to do :)

update from myself for future info ECP have the front upper arm - £28 http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Honda_Accord_2.2_2004/p/car-parts/suspension-and-steering/suspension/suspension-arm-and-suspension-joints/?615600568&1&635908081e519239cbf4f4eb1b177758c6b7302a&000320 and the lower arms -...

hi peoples :) i've just got my 2.2 diesel back from the MOT place and it has failed on front suspension bushes. namely: nearside lower front bush offside front upper excessive play in ball joint as im fairly handy with the spanners, are these jobs DIYable. infact, are the parts available from...

or a simple form of launch control, if youve got a good clutch and sticky tyres :)

just buy the 4 litre bottle of DOT4 from halfords for 18 quid or whatever it costs. you arent going to be racing (no matter how fast you "think" you are!) in the accord so standard fluid will be fine. ffs, i changed the brake fluid on my 500bhp race car the other week, went racing at blyton and...

if you are going to advance the ignition timing, you would be well advised to only use super unleaded or vpower type fuel. ie at least 97 octane...

most in recent history is 640 miles, returning 56.6mpg. that was in june this year so aircon would have been always on :)

this is exactly the route i took last week when i went to replace the rear pads and found the caliper siezed solid (so much so it bent my wind back tool!!). i still need to send my caliper back. the refurbed one i got back was very shiny and clean :) tbh the hardest bit was getting the...

my last fillup showed i had done 56.6mpg over the whole tank! :)

your thermostat could have failed in the open position. would explain ***** MPG and taking ages to heat up. buy a new one (dont get a low temp "racing stat") or get investigative and heat yours in a pan of water until it opens whilst using a thermometer :)

lol dont work jake, this post is now a reference for posterity :)

update: last year i towed my 1320kg race car and twin axle brian james trailer to several meets and probably did 2k miles under tow conditions. no problems whatsoever, cruising along with the HGVs in the slow lane. the witter detachable towbar has been problem free. this thread can be looked...

im going to do all these next saturday. thanks for the info on the gearbox oil, thats the only quantity and type i wasnt sure about :wub:

i would say heatsoak if the intercooler isnt as efficient due to higher ambient temperatures. but if we are talking motorway speeds i would have thought this would not happen. pulling away from the traffic lights etc, would definitely heatsoak because of the lack of cooling (cold) air across the...

swop it for a 2.2 diesel :D

thanks robert, lots of good info there :)
