    7th Gen CD and SAT Nav replacement Android Option

    I have factory satnav in my 2.4 exec. The replacement Android satnavs on eBay/AliExpress only work with non-satnav models as they replace the stock radio. I'm wondering if it's possible to convert my dash back to non-satnav (excluding radio unit) and placibg one of these 10 inch Android units...

    DIY Howto - Replace Evaporator and/or Expansion Valve

    I'm not an expert (did not do flushing myself), but it was a special device with bottles which used a slightly higher pressure and a different gas I believe. I only did the mechanical work :P

    DIY Howto - Replace Evaporator and/or Expansion Valve

    I've replaced the condensor and dryer, still the air wasn't that cold. So, we flushed the system 3 times, seems like there was a lot of crap in there (aircon hasn't worked since I bought the car). After all the junk was flushed, we filled up the system again. And voila, 1.6C temp from the...

    DIY Howto - Replace Evaporator and/or Expansion Valve

    There is no leak, hadn't touched it for over 2 years and still several bar of pressure. It must be blockage in dryer or expired condensor, there's nothing left to replace haha.

    DIY Howto - Replace Evaporator and/or Expansion Valve

    Hi, My aircon is blowing hot air from the start. I finally got around to replace the bits of the aircon that don't work. I started with the compressor (clutch was slipping due to wear). This was relatively straightforward. I've pinpointed this problem (after checking sensors, pressures and...

    A/C problem - 2004 Tourer Exec

    Hello fellow troubleshooters, From when I bought my '04 Tourer, the A/C system hasn't worked. I'm currently troubleshooting the issue. My findings : - A/C System doesn't leak at all, even after refill almost no cold air (sporadically a gush or cold air with higher revs) - Clutch of the pump...

    REVIEW Accord Tourer, Bilstein B8s and HR springs

    Thanks! I found these springs for about 150 EUR, which is a bargain. Those Bilstein B8's also look freakin' sexy and they're not even that expensive. Four dampers will set me back about 570 EUR.

    Accord Tourer - Springs/Dampers lowering

    I'm looking to drop my '04 Tourer Exec about 20 to 30mm's. I've come across many lowering spring options, but I want dampers and springs. It just handles better and my OEM shocks are not going to last anyway. I know the rear suspension on the Tourer is not the same as the Saloon. What are the...

    NEW Xcarlink available?

    In my opinion, Bluetooth streaming quality is only acceptable if the device supports Apt-X technology. A2DP alone just doesn't cut it.

    SATNAV DVD Fitting

    See this guide : http://www.civinfo.com/wiki/index.php?***le=Install_Xcarlink_in_2007_Accord It also covers removing the DVD Drive. No need to remove the trim above the satnav with kitchen utensils, you can skip that part of the guide :) Did you get a full DVD-drive or just the mechanism?

    Accord Tourer 2.4 Satnav problem

    Opened up the center console today, had to remove an old Nokia carkit. Behind the Satnav DVD ROM player I saw something... the original Honda DVD (v2.01)! I think the previous owner accidentally pushed the DVD between the console and the DVD player. Unfortunately it also won't read this...
