    Tyre Size for '54 Accord Pentas

    Hello, Firstly I have had a trawl through the numerous wheel/tyre threads but unless I missed something I can't seem to find an answer to my question, which is this: I have four Pentas that I am going to fit to my 7th Gen ictdi. I have found a note I made a while back re sizes and that was...

    Steering "squirming" sensation on cornering/roundabouts

    Hi, This was the first thing that I noticed went I originally got my 7th Gen, it felt very strange at first, I have got used to it now, but that said I still find it slightly 'artificial' feeling. Ross.

    How long has your clutch lasted

    Hi Fahad, Yeah I think you are right, I have already said to them that I want to see it if they try it on with the DMF change! I am using Yeomans Honda in Littlehampton. Regards, Ross.

    How long has your clutch lasted

    Hi, 64500 Miles and just started to slip slightly under boost and hard acceleration. Booked in for 2 weeks time......hopefully no DMF :-( . Am slightly concerned as they quoted me £630 and when I mentioned the HH price of £585 said "Oh we will honour that" LOL they are a Honda Dealer...

    BP Ultimate diesel or Shell VPD. Any opinions?

    Hi Fahad, Yeah I think you're right. I have only been using VPD since the remap, and will continue to do so. Or alternatively BP Ulti depending on proximity. Although they're both 139.9 round these parts now!!! Scary :-( Mind you I'm getting nearly twice the mileage I got out of the Treg so...

    BP Ultimate diesel or Shell VPD. Any opinions?

    Hi All, Quick update re my experience of BG244...I saw no noticeable difference with it BUT I also had a remap by Fahad 2 days after I added it to my tank, so I think that may have muddied the waters (remap review to come soon!). HOWEVER I 'lent' my spare can to a friend of mine who runs a...

    BP Ultimate diesel or Shell VPD. Any opinions?

    Hi, What Andy said :-) This is the first time I have used it as all the reviews and talk were positive, so I thought I would give it a try, more as a precautionary measure. Ross.

    VSA Odditiy

    Hi Guys, Yeah, I guess but I'm pretty sure there was no loss of traction especially twice under no acceleration, I suspect as was mentioned it could have been crud on a sensor or perhaps the tyre pressure difference. Have a set of pentas here that will go on in the spring with new tyres so that...

    BP Ultimate diesel or Shell VPD. Any opinions?

    Hi Guys, I used to always use BP Ultimate in my previous car (remapped V10 Touareg) and was just wondering if anyone has any opinions (I'm sure you do :-) ) in regard to its use in a 2.2 CTDI as opposed to Shell VPD? My local BP garage is literally at the end of my road (and the nectar...

    VSA Odditiy

    Hi Guys, Thanks for the replies, I think you could well be right, ie all the gick and crud accumulated from the recent snow and grit etc. I did check tyre pressures this morning and noticed that one of the fronts was 5 psi down (slow leak I guess) maybe this could of had an effect? I'll keep...

    VSA Odditiy

    Hi All, I have a quick query regarding a potential VSA problem. I have read a few relevant topics here that cover the faulty VSA unit and replacement (£1500 :-( ) but my issue seems slightly different. I have a 54 2.2 CTDI with 61K on the clock. I have recently replaced all filters and fluids...

    '54 EX Steering wheel switch gear lights?

    Hi, This may be a stupid question, but should the steering wheel switchgear (cruise, audio vol etc) on a pre facelift 7th Gen Accord be lit when the headlights are on? I can't believe they wouldn't be but mine aren't :-( Thanks, Ross.

    Clutch gone

    Hi, Sorry to divert the course of this thread, but could someone explain to me the relationship between the possible clutch slips and the cruise control? Thanks, Ross.
