Back on the original map and I can hardly tell the difference. Mileage seems better, if anything. I think I wasted my money having a remap and I wish I hadn't bothered as it has lost me a potential buyer when it came to sell the car! Putting it back to default settings has been inconvenient, too.

Update. Error code P061B. Internal Control Module Torque Calc Performance. This supports my theory that the hard acceleration caused the fault which was aggravated by the remap. Got this information from the engineer tonight when I had the remap returned to original setting. He said he would...

Hello Fahad The fault code is P061B ENGINE CONTROL MODULE INTERNAL CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION. I am taking the car tonight to have the remap reversed to factory settings. I just hope that as I drive it back the fault doesn't happen again. I'll be gutted if it does. I will report again tonight. As...

Hi Fahad, sorry I wasn't clear. The car is in limp mode. It occurred when a potential buyer floored the accelerator in 3rd. He said that he felt the clutch slip just before the engine warning light came on. I don't know what the error code is, but I will get someone to look at it tomorrow. I...

The engine warning light came on today after I floored the accelerator in third gear. Actually it wasn't me it was someone who had come to buy the Tourer and he was checking if the clutch would slip (he wants to tow a caravan). He thought he detected a slight slippage. My local Indy garage was...

I await the new HRV with keen interest, even though it is based on a Jazz! But until then I'm very happy with my 8 gen high spec Accord until middle of next year at least.

I have never known such a poorly designed system. It is supposed to be a technological solution presumably to keep you safe whilst driving, but it actually creates more of a hazard. On other cars I have owned without a hands free I have installed the excellent and intuitive Parrot hands free...

I bought a space saver before my road trip to Italy this summer. Got if from online breaker (24/7 spares £70 I think) and was impressed with the service. Brand new never been used. Easily fits under load area of Tourer, but had to remove the square shaped trim and then pack out the wheel. For...

It shouldn't be necessary to adjust the ACC with any finer granularity. After all, the system is designed to slow you down automatically when the forward camera detects a car in front and then will speed up if there is no traffic in front. You set the speed to what you want and keep it there...

I can't say I have noticed any smoke. I'll rev it and check.

Fahad I don't know whether the DPF has been removed or if it exists at all! How do I find out? What does removing it do for performance?

Fahad I had a QuantumBlue remap on my iDTEC 8 gen Tourer. Reasonably happy with the smoothness, but a little disappointed that the difference in torque hasn't been more noticeable. No real difference in MPG, I get around 44 and I drive carefully.

Seeing these pics reminds me that the shelf inside my glove box won't stay fixed and up clips with even the lightest item inside. Anyone else notice this apparently poor build quality?

I too am looking for a spare for my 8th gen tourer. Wheel size 255/50/R17 , so whatever full size will fit. I would even go for a space saver if that is all I could find.

I will give mytyres a call, too. Can't get a price online from iPad.

This is the question I have been asking, too, Karl. I recently joined in order to get advice and ideas on space savers or better still a full sized steel spare and how to make it fit the well. I have 17s on my 2009 tourer iDTEC.

I agree with Matt about members' generosity of spirit. I have only just joined and don't really know my way around TA yet, but I like what I've seen so far. I signed up in order to find a spare wheel (which I haven't found yet) for my 2009 tourer. I am a little baffled by some technical jargon...
