Theres another one under the window controls , 5 in total

Sounds and looks great

Apolgies terry , i hadnt realised one of the turrets on your filler cap had snapped , in that case one of these probably wont work as it wont bite on one side your probably right and going to have to butcher this one off

Terry these work fine https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181575954204

I took an infiniti M30d out the other week , Fantastic equipment , smooth and powerful however the centre arm rest had the most annoying squeak to it and seemed really badly fitted and quality to the rest of the car ,i know it sounds trivial but it completely ruined the feel of the car , i know...

Its around about every 500/600 miles

Was getting 650 mile from brim to empty , i dont take any notice of mpg trip computers as they can vary massively from car to car , only way to accurately figure it out is put a set amount of fuel in each fill up and reset your miles and work it out from there , your own driving style and speed...

Could this be a stretched timing chain perhaps ? I had the exact same symptoms on my k24 a few years ago , random misfiring upon start up then would run ok followed by failure to start at all , took honda 2 days to diagnose and fix this btw ?

Hi , yeah unfortunately 2nd gear can seem a little notchy in these as its nowhere near as slick as the ultra smooth 2.4 petrol manual , but 3rd onwards should feel fine ? Can suffer from rear binding callipers but usually a good clean and re-lube will sort out , As for full tank should be...

There is a thread on here somewhere where someone has retro fitted a spring system , (sorry cant find the link )

Yeah thatll be the last of the pre-facelifts

Cant find the thread but im sure it was recomended on here to wedge a breaker bar against the subframe and turn the engine over ?? The power of the starter motor loosens the nut ...... Wheres jon G these days ?
