    Honda Meet 2022

    Hi there, just a shot in the dark really this year I am looking to get a few UK 6th generation accord owners together this year in the Midlands area? Following the mass extinction of this great car mainly due to catalytic converter thefts, I think it would be great to get those that remain on...

    2000 main relay issue.

    Sorry to hear of your troubles with you Accord, I regularly fix these relays for just the cost of postage, but the fix doesn't always work if its metal fatigue failure and I would highly recommend new unit from Holdcroft Honda. Alternatively, you could try a breakers yard and since lots of...

    New exhaust for a 1999 3.0 V6 Accord, any advice?

    I purchased several mid-sections for the Accord V6 from Holdcroft at a great price, highly recommended and I imported the 3.2 Acura CL bosal silencers, less visible and a lovely sound. Also, there's a good place in Walsall and did a great system for a Honda 6 members coupe and other Honda's, but...

    gear problems

    FYI, folks, I wouldn't recommend sticking MTF-3 in an old or worn gearbox let alone one with a possible problem, which I hope was resolved with the relevant suggestions. Valvoline 75W80 gear oil has resolved loads of issues for me on countless accords where Honda fluids have failed. ;)

    Another Rusty Sunroof

    I’m a corrosion freak on the 7th - 8th gen as I've discreetly sorted little bits like this at no charge :mellow: and customers are none the wiser. Also look out around the window trims the wheel arches and sub-frame areas, some have been worse than a substantially older higher mileage 6th Gen’s...

    My auto gearbox is losing fluid?

    Sorry to here of your troubles m8y, The differential bearing is the most common on 2001-02 and that would be obvious, another thought have you checked the coolant lately as the transmission has cooler lines go into the radiator and these can fail if the coolant turned acidic and will eat into...

    Shame I have no free time ATM as I could have visited you :mellow: I've resolved a few none start issues on the 2.0es coupes, recently dizzy cap was arching and another was the main relay needed to be re-soldered, although it could be something else in your case. Let us know how you get on ;)
