Hey Rob and welcome to the forums. Have just bought an accord myself and did all manner of research before buying. One of the most common faults on diesels for starting in general is a weak battery. May be worth getting this checked. I would go for a honda battery if you do decide to replace it...

Just checked and tyre size there is 195/65/15 thats even better. Will start scouting around for some 15s instead then. Martyn

Perfect cheers Ian. Will get on that. Martyn

Should have been checked at 4wa and certainly when getting them balanced but are the wheels true? if wheel is buckled no amount of balancing is going to help. Martyn

Will be in touch John. Essex is a long way for me to drive to test some wheels to be honest. But thanks for the offer. Martyn

With tyres matey? and do you have pictures at all? if so will send me email. And more importantly how much you want for em :) Cheers Martyn

Ah ok. Mines an SE so any idea if these were just on the exec? and someone has swapped them. I'm going to be changing them to 16s no matter what as the mrs doesnt paticularly like the firm ride and im finding the steering twitchy at low speeds/dives into pot holes. Although i know the front...

cheers jon much appreciated. They sound better. Any idea what honda my current wheels would be off? as they are the same 5 spoke desisn as the 16s from what i can see. Martyn

Hey all recently bought an 2003 Accord tourer but seems it has 17 inch wheels fitted which is kinda screwing the ride. Does anyone know the original wheel/tyre size please. currently has 225/45/17. Thanks in advance. Martyn

Used the car hard that evening so the vtec was being forced to work and have since redrained and reffilled the oil. light has stayed off for the last 150 miles so fingers crossed. If an oil and filter change sorted it i'll be a happy camper. Martyn

Damn double post.

Glad you sorted it matey:) worth bearing in mind for when/if mine goes wrong. Martyn

the thing is if you still want the height adjuster to work inside the car. If they auto adjust im guessing so. Its going to have to be connected into the headlamp as it stabilises the lense will wobble around and so throw out your beam adjustment. my concern would be the 2 connectors going onto...

Also the headlamp adjuster unit blocks look different? sorry if im missing something. If those are both interchangeable from one lens body to the other it may work but not sure of the ins and outs.

the connector blocks look different on the control unit? or whatever the seperate box is. Am guessing thats going to be the issue. Martyn

Hey Tom may be a long shot but have had similar issues to this in the past (on non honda vehicles mind) and has turned out to be the drivers door actuator for the central locking. the theory being that when u press the fob the signal is sent to the drivers door actuator that then triggers the...

Not sure that makes me feel any better F6HAD but thanks. Have a sensor coming from honda tomorrow will try that and see. Thats to the tune of £70 anything after that im gonna have to consider when is a good place to stop as is then possible solenoid, Head strip or worse case ECU. Had the car...

I'm a vehicle technician matey so obtained the code myself using a Obd2 Reader.(generic one). Guess in this post i should give a little more info. the full code is P2647 "Actuator Rocker Arm Control System Stuck On Bank 1". The light came out about 100 miles ago and the revs were limited to 3k...

Hey all, have been doing some digging on the net about this code as me 2003 2.0ivtec accord has sprung it up. As you all seem more knowledgable than most does anyone have any pointers? Have so far changed the oil and filter and took the vtec solenoid off and cleaned through/checked the gauze was...
