    Sold My Accord so goodbye from me

    Had the Accord years and years but sold it yesterday as it had an unknown running fault. Was a good car over the years, let down by its spec. Thanks for the help from forum members since joining. Some Accord stuff for sale in the for sale section.

    Electric window lock button

    When I lock the electric windows on the drivers door, this stops me operating the other windows aswell. This is in my Tourer, is it the same for you aswell? It's really annoying,

    Water Leak - 7th Gen

    After the rain yesterday I'm in my car this morning with drips coming out of the Airbag sign on the A Pillar on the drivers side. I suspect it has something to do with the door rubber drains or the sunroof drains, anyone experienced this? Will be interesting when/if the water shorts the airbag...

    Which cylinder is which?

    My car decided to be sick yesterday morning, was fine when I parked it up on Saturday. Missing like a ******, not revving properly etc etc engine light flashing. Got it on the scanner which diagnosed a misfire (very handy!) but it did tell me it was in cylinder 3. I've ordered a new coil pack...

    Let there be Bass

    After having all my stereo stuff gathering dust I decided to install my sub last weekend. Should have done it ages ago in hindsight. I've only got the basic CD player headunit and as there are no pre outs I simply spliced the speaker wires near the headunit, fed those to the high level inputs...

    Rear Discs and Pads Changed

    So I changed my rear discs and pads at the weekend (with the help of Dans excellent write up http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/6607-tourer-rear-brake-change/), and boy did they need to be done! I was going to change the flexi's aswell but my spanner started burring the copper connector over...

    Lower Front Suspension Bushes

    Both of mine are knackered as confirmed by my own eyes at the garage today. Has anyone had theirs changed? Just wondering roughly how much it cost you to have done, did you get whole new arms or just the bushes? Thanks in advance.

    Easiest place to tap into rear speaker wires?

    As per the ***le thread, I'm hoping to add an amplifier and sub to my tourer, do you know where the rear speaker wires run and what colour they are? Would save me ripping my trim to shreds!

    Braided hoses

    Just pricing up my rear brake overhaul. A kind TA member said he paid £98 from HH for rubber Honda brake hoses. I've just been on the HEL website and braided ones are £35 for the rear or £65 for all 4. Seems like a bargain to me.

    Seriously Messed Up Pads

    So, the grinding noise that I thought was coming from the front wheel was actually from the back wheel and has been getting worse and worse so I did a brake inspection tonight and the pads and disc on the drivers side are knackered. I don't mind changing them myself, that's not the problem...

    Baby Car Seat Recommendations

    Need a forward facing seat now the little un is a bit bigger. Just been to Halfords to try the Maxi Cosi Axiss which is the one I wanted as it swivels making it easier in and out but it doesn't fit as it had buckle crunch. The lady fitting it reeled of a long list of seats that would also...

    Binding Brakes

    One of my rear brakes is binding and I'm going to finally have a look at it this weekend. I've got some copper slip but was wondering, as I haven't looked at the brakes/calipers/sliders etc what I shoudl be lubing. Thanks in advance.

    Hope I don't have to use it but it's too cold to be looking for it now and I don't want to be looking for it when and if I need it, so, where is it please? I can't even remember if I have to screw a hitch in. Thanks

    Anyone removed their steering wheel controls?

    Just wondering what the procedure is for removing the steering wheel controls, do you have to take the airbag off to get them off?

    Is the aerial input on the standard headunits a bit weird? Is this the right cable that would be needed to fit an aftermarket headunit? If so, what's the second wire for? Thanks Link To Adaptor
