My EML fault code suggests the boost actuator needs cleaning or replacing. It’s a 227k car so if it can be cleaned it’s ok but I ***ume it’s an expensive operation to change the turbo relative to the car’s value so I’m just trying to gauge if it is worthwhile.

My EML has come on in the same way it did before visit to F6had a few years back. Came on when hard accelerating, car goes into limp mode and then if you switch off the car, when you switch it back on again the little EML warning light is on but the car runs fine. Now the last time it did this...

So before i but yet another set of fog lights for my 8th gen tourer, does anyone have any tips for protecting the glass from cracking/smashing?! Thanks.

Out of the blue my front windscreen wiper motor appears to have failed. Are these easy to change? Anyone know if it’s worth opening it up to try and mend? I’m ***uming not. Thanks very much.

So....topic of the day - will the new mot really be able to discover a dpf has been removed?

Posting by way of info..... my VSA/TSA/ABS and pretty much everything else illuminated a few months and 7k miles ago. When the car was off and locked the brake lights came on too. After 48hrs it returned to normal. Then the same thing happened a couple of weeks back, but just add the auto...

I have been getting wobbly steering under load. The wheels are true and the garage check (an Indie, not Honda) have not seen anything untoward happening. She is at 170k miles so it could be just that the suspension is getting a little 'saggy' but i wondered if anyone else had experienced...

I wonder if anyone can help. After a slightly humpy road and small bash on the underside of the front bumper a mass crash of the electrical system happened where all the ABD VSA power steering and big ! lights came on and also my brake lights! A clear of the codes brought up that the 'module...

Hello - can anyone let me know if there are any other clips i need to attach a replacement bumper other than the 10mm stanadard round ones. My accord tourer will be having its bumper replaced and the garage (non-Honda) is asking for £40 for the clips. Thanks.

So i am buying some parking sensors and retaining clips and these are not direct from Honda) but has anyone experience of whether these can be sprayed as they all come black? When i ask the ebay sellers they either say 'no' or do not reply. I am thinking that surely they can be as they all...

Hi - I am getting an OEM bumper from a wreckers and need three front parking sensors for it. I simply will not pay £195 per sensor to Honda so wondered if anyone knew where to get ones that are compatible for less outlay please? Thanks,

So I took the plunge and.......my goodness, i can actually hear my turbo whistling now and the pull is superb and i will not be getting any carbon gunking everything up either :-) Such a polite chap too and I cannot fault his enthusiasm and knowledge and honesty and straightforward thinking. I...

After a call my hft said that I was still in TEL mode, even when I switched my phone off. I've turned the car off - even looked it and walked away for ten mins but to no avail. Anyone had this problem? Can I reset the hft or will disconnecting the battery be the only solution?

After much delay I'm finally investing in an Ingalls adjustable rear camber toe kit 35623 from the States but before I parted with my cash I wondered if there was now anything better out there or are these items still good. They have come down quite a bit in money in the last year. Thanks in...

Will the 8th gen tourer swallow a standard size washing machine in its boot??

So I had my solenoid valve replaced as per the diagnostic code and 5 days later I get the engine light on again and the car goes into limp mode so in again I went to Johnsons in MK. They did more diagnostics and told me they'd need to send it all off to Honda UK. I've got the results back and...

Evening all - i have a query about diagnostic code P00AF that comes up. It says it is to do with the turbo boost and my local indie garage have a Honda guy who says there is a recent bulletin about that and a software update is required, for a fee, but when i ask my local Honda dealer that have...

Does anyone else notice that when they have the heater on the amount of external smells that come in is pretty high. Is there supposed to be some sort of filter somewhere for these or is it standard? I do not notice external smells so much in any other car. Be interested in your views. Thanks

My Nexen 8000's on the front finally gave out at @23k miles - not bad really for an £85 tyre. The rear ones are still good for a few months so they are now on the front but I spent bit more this time round on some Falken ZE914 tyres and these are now on the rear. The Nexens, whilst superb...

I recall I read somewhere that the oil on the auto box should be changed at a certain mileage to avoid expensive issues. I have just had a service at 72k or so and it had not come up on the VSR so i wondered if it should have done and if not, when is it generally good practice to do it? Thanks...
