My accord is still going! 101,000 miles on the clock, 52 plate......and going strong(ish). Last year it's cost £800 to keep on the road. New clutch, service, welding, new power steering pipe, and other repairs. Considering the cars value is only around £800 (max), at what point do most...

So, after a 'little' accident (involving a failed thule roofbar and OSB) last weekend my rear windscreen jet and my aerial have both been ripped off the car. The aerial I'll need to drill out and replace. With the rear washer - I can't find a replacement anywhere. So it is possible to just...

Hi all, My clutch has been acting odd lately. About every 1 in 10 uses, it changes from the biting point being nearly fully out, to moving it a couple of millimetres and it bites. I've searched this forum and found the common issue is leaking fluids from the master and slave cylinders. Took...

So my car needs new slider bolts The garage have quoted that they can only get them as part of the brake carrier kit....which is ****** expensive. However, looking at Lings, I've found that I can buy the bolts seperate: Lings parts Am I right in thinking I need part number PFKL609349 "Pin...

Hi all, Bit of a nightmare. My car has just thrown up an error p1259 - vtec issue by the looks of it. The problem I have is that the car is in airport parking (the light came on 1 mile out from the airport!) and when I get back I have to drive 50 miles down the A38 including a huge steep...

Hi all, My car has started to develop an odd issue.....I've searched the forums and can't find anything like it. On the motorway yesterday the car started vibrating through the steering wheel. Started mild, then went mental. I pulled over as the steering felt funny as well so I though I had a...

I don't know if anyone is interested, but a friend pointed me at this site:http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/ Check out some of the paint repairs done! I don't have the balls to do some of the work that they're doing, but the results are amazing!!! For example, fed up of stone chips on the...

Nightmare. Driving today, light comes on. Check the manual and it's an emissions control problem. Need the car on Sunday to go on holiday.....garage is full until middle of next week. So they're going to run a diagnostic tomorrow at the garage. However reading the forum I've noticed that if...

Hi all, This may be a dumb question.....I've searched the forum and google to find the answer but can't find it anywhere! The car I have (52 se exec) still has the stock fit Bose single CD system with sub in the boot. There is a button on the unit with "Aux" on it. If I pull out the head unit...

Now I am confused. I've checked previous threads on leaking boots, tried all the stuff there. Took it to the garage and they can't find the source of the leak either. Said they'd probably need to strip off the internals to get back to expose the frame. It's not: Light cluster Aerial Boot...

Hey all, Where do you get your parts from? To cut a long story short, I need to buy a new boot seal to stop water pouring in to the boot well....Honda want about £70 for it.....it's a piece of rubber! Are there alternatives to buying honda parts, or is this a "luxury" of being a honda owner?

Hi all, So I have the accord now on the drive! I've checked the GPS system (or Honda Navigation as it's called) and the disc in the system is by Tele Atlas. It's the 2001 DX maps I've looked online and in this forum to get updated maps, but there doesn't seem to be anything on it. Are there...
