    Another driveshaft snapped!

    Took my car to have a wheel bearing changed and there was an identical 55 plate 2.4 manual in the workshop with 94k on the clock with a snapped drive shaft. Mine is the exact same model except two years older and with thousands more miles on the clock. Uh-oh...

    Bearing/Gearbox noise

    First I thought it was just a wheel bearing. Now I'm not so sure. Has anyone had problems with driveshaft/gearbox bearings? The car is nearly at 100k miles and has worked pretty hard so far...

    CT23HD26

    Anybody tried one of these? http://www.incarmusic.co.uk/ct23hd26-honda-accord-double-din-car-facia-adaptor-trim.html Really want to know if it will work in cars with the factory navigation/premium sound system. There are no details about whether it will work with the separate LCD display on...

    Changing PAS fluid

    Anybody know how much power steering fluid I will need to flush the old stuff out and fill up again with fresh? I'm only going to use genuine Honda stuff because I've heard all the horror stories of how sensitive those pumps are.

    Wheel bearing brand?

    Is there anyone here that has figured out which brand makes the wheel bearings for Honda? Need a N/S/R one for my 2.4 saloon but the dealer prices are mental. If we can figure out where they really come from we can probably get the same ones the dealers use from somewhere cheaper I guess?

    Anybody know the difference?

    Spotted this on ebay and was wondering if anyone on here knows anything about them? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2003-Honda-Accord-2-0-EURO-R-i-VTEC-CL7-integra-civic-type-r-jdm-/221864340642?hash=item33a8252ca2 Been wondering about this for a while.

    Heavy power steering

    I like my accord but I've always hated the power steering. You can expect it to feel a bit numb and disconnected from the road in a big saloon but what I can't forgive is the weight of it. Does anyone know if the 7th gen accord has a power steering speed sensor or pressure valve that makes it...

    Jap VS German 2015 - anyone going?

    Braided brake hoses

    Has anybody tried fitting braided stainless steel brake hoses? Saw these on ebay and wondered if it's something worth doing to improve braking feedback through the pedal...

    Winter wheels from a CRV?

    The accord has got a lot of good points but wading through snow and slush isn't one of them. I've found this guy selling some old Honda CRV wheels on ebay that he says will fit straight on to a MK7/CL7 accord like mine but does anyone know if they will rub or cause other problems with abs or...

    Power gain!

    First things first. I don't work for any oil companies etc. I've been running my 2.4 on the cheapest unleaded that I can find for the last few years and lately the car has really started to feel lumpy on acceleration and slow to pick up. I spoke to a few different people about having the...

    Front drop links

    After replacing the main front bushes on my 2.4 accord it was still knocking and rattling over every minor bump in the road. I found that the upper control arms were badly worn so replaced both sides. Things were much better for a while but another small rattle got louder every week until it...

    Failed main front bushes 2.4 accord

    I've been hearing knocking under the accord for ages so thought I would take a closer look. I'm pretty sure the wishbones aren't supposed to be resting on the metal sub frame. Any idea how much it's gonna cost me to have new genuine stuff fitted? Would have a crack at it myself but I haven't...

    Hot Alternator!

    I was driving my accord on a 100ish mile trip and I was traveling at 70-90 for most of the way. When I finished the trip I heard the engine making a wierd whining noise. Opened the bonnet with the engine running and could smell burning. My first thought was power steering pump but then I...

    2.4 Exhaust Rotten

    My centre pipe has gotten seriously rotten where it splits to go to the 2 rear silencers and it's leaking now. Anybody got a standard system for sale that I could buy? Not really interested in going for stainless steel because I like the sound of the standard pipe and I just like the induction...

    2.4 Total brake failure

    I'm a happy owner of a 2.4 Exec 6spd since 2009 and I just thought I'd share this one with you all: Car had been parked up unused since December. Hopped in and of course started perfectly first turn of the key. A couple of things needed looking at however. O/S/R brake was smoking on the first...
