I have ordered an o2 sensor to fit on my new cat, so was wondering do they simply screw on and plug in? Do I need any specific tools or will a simple spanner do the job? seen vids of people putting anti seize grease on and tourqueing them, butnot sure how necessary that is!

Quick question might be a daft one, but is the leather on the 6th gen real? or are they synthetic?

So i bought some Valeo wipers earlier on in the year and just got round to fitting them. But noticed the 22" blade sent doesnt have the normal fitting instead its got some auto clic system with two clips. I can't see how this would fit the 6th gen wiper arm.

Sup y'all My Dad has a 2.0 Auto and since he bought the car 2 years ago it has always had a problem which we at first suspected was a gearbox issue, but 2 years on and the gearbox is still kicking alive and well which indicated it might be something else causing it, so I recently bought an OBD...

Hi Bought a new battery to replace the slowly dying one. Is there any specific procedure in changing the battery? Also will changing the battery have any effect on other things such as resetting the ECU? Cheers

Both me and my Dad have the 6 gen Accord and on both of our cars the headlights seem very weak, they barely light up the road, was wondering if this is a 6gen wide issue or not. Was thinking of trying these as they are meant to be a lot brighter than normal bulbs...
