Just over 95k Think our MOT is a lot stricter than your warrant of fitness when it comes to things like ball joints though. Also wear out a lot quicker due to our climate and the state of our roads...

Excellent, thanks for the help skhell. Would have ordered from there but I need the parts pronto so I can get it back in for a partial retest. Used the part numbers and found UK based seller so should have it on Tue. Saved it into the bookmarks for future though! Car failed MOT on 10 points...

Failed MOT for excessive play in front N/S lower balljoint. Took the knuckle right off and the ball joint is mega loose. Thing is, I can't seem to find a replacement ball joint? Any suggestions? I did order a cheap and cheerful one from ECP but it turned out to be far too small...

Thanks guys. This is what I was expecting. Will need to get the rear wheels off to check what needs replacing there too. Last MOT advisories were slight play in rear O/S & N/S control arm. Just need to figure out what ones need done as there are a few :wacko:

Just looking for some thoughts on this. Is it a PITA to change bushes alone or would it be recommended just to replace complete suspension arms?

41.............P0135,P1166,P1167.................. ....Primary heated O2 sensor http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/5672-error-codes/ Looks like new lambda sensor needed. Should be a straight-forward fix.

By sanding, what you're actually doing is removing layers of lacquer. I'll be doing this over the coming weeks but I'll be replacing the lacquer as I go. followed by some G3 compound and wax. Some parts of mine look like I'll need to go right down to the colour coat. Previous owner decided it...

This is what's in the cd:

That's the sub back in. Only problem is I've misplaced the stereo pre-out cable so will need to wait til the new one comes :( Cables are just sitting nicely behind the HU waiting to be connected when it comes. When running the power to the battery, I noticed the earth cables had seen better...

One of the first things I did when I got my accord. Nice tutorial! One thing I've also noticed is the keyfob upgrade...

DAB Aerial current location:

From the thread I posted above you might be looking for pins 1 and 3:

Ordered a 5-pin to OBD-II connector yesterday to try with my USB ELM-327. Hopefully the post from China is prompt as I'm anxious to try this out!

It's coming from Shen Zhen, China so it will no doubt take some time to arrive. eBay item 110888553362

Just took a punt on a 5-pin to odb-ii converter on ebay. Works out at around £3.50

Have a search through the forum. 1998 1.8 accord doesn't have OBD-II (I ***ume this is what you mean when you say OBM?) Quick search found this: http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/5066-missing-obdii-socket/

The aerial I got was from an auction site item number 120972822994 (are links allowed??). The idea is the two parts have sticky pads that stick on either side of the windscreen. I was going to put it above the rear-view mirror but when I was testing it out I found that even just by having the...

Don't know if this is much use:

Only thing I have ATM is FLI 6.5" so I'm ***uming stock accords are much better than them haha... From other people's points of view (including you Shiny!), is it worth installing aftermarket speakers, be it 6.5" or 6x9"s and having them amplified or not (HU is 4x50 watt RMS) or whether it's...

Bought car a week ago with after-market HU installed (kenwood doofer). First thing I did was whip it out and put in my trusty Woodstock DAB 52. Unfortunately, the DAB aerial converter I had didn't work with the stock aerial so ordered a glass-mount aerial off eBay. Installed it yesterday and...
