    Brake disc size

    Front or rear? I've just replaced the rears on my 2006 facelift i-CDTi Sport Saloon and they were 260mm. Some other models apparently have 280mm rears (possibly 2.4 petrol) but should definitely be 260mm on yours and mine. If in doubt, consult a tape measure!

    Honda cd changer

    Congrats on getting MP3! Do you have the Bose head unit? If so, is it cassette or CD?

    Colour codes

    Thanks Jamie Stuart - the only label on my car was on the driver's side door jamb, and it was for tyre pressures. However, once I knew what the format of the paint code was, I got it from the VIN plate. Cheers

    Colour codes

    OK, found it. If anyone needs to find it on the VIN plate, it's on the right-hand section of the plate, second line, e.g.: NH-623M (Satin Silver).

    What is the format of the colour code, so I can recognise it?

    Colour codes

    How do I find the colour code for my car? The owner's manual says where it should be, but not how to identify what the code should look like. :huh: It says the code should be either on a sticker on the driver's door jamb, or on the VIN plate. On my car the sticker is all about tyre...

    Walnut/Grandad Trim Upgrade

    Type-V dials are white, and most of them seem to have auto 'boxes. I'm sure I saw a crashed Type-V on Ebay recently, they might be breaking it. Worth a look...

    whistling at low revs

    Mine was a QH kit, fitted by independent garage. I did have an appointment to take it back in to check, but it's such a minor annoyance I felt like a bit of a fusspot! From past experience of such things, I usually find my hearing to be more sensitive than the mechanic's!

    That certainly looks like the answer. Did the Infinity unit fit in the spot where the Bose came out?

    6th gen Bose system questions

    Couple of questions: 1. Why is the CD button marked CD AUX? It raises my hopes that there's an AUX input somewhere but the owner's manual refers to it as just a CD selection button. I'm pretty sure there is no AUX function but am puzzled by what the button says on it. 2. I have no CD...

    Front Underside Bolts

    Are the bolts actually missing or have the heads sheared off after seizing up? Sorry, not meaning to sound pessimistic, I just have a lot of experience of the 'road crud effect' on such fixings...

    Ignition Barrel

    With reference to symptoms mentioned by Mamun above.... I had that exact problem, which could be overcome by turning the key ever so slightly towards the start position. I traced it to the the electrical contacts on the ignition barrel. They are held to the end of the barrel en bloc with...

    Aircon regass for £29 at kwikfit

    I likewise wouldn't normally go near KF, mainly because of their well documented track record of recommending work that's not needed. But I figured I'll give them the benefit of the doubt on this one, and had my a/c done this afternoon. If they were to allege a problem I wouldn't have them fix...

    whistling at low revs

    Just resurrecting this thread for a minute..... Did you lose the whistle noise in the end? I'm sure it is timing or balancer belt as mine's exactly the same after the belts were done a couple of weeks ago. Does if go away or do I need the garage to recheck the tension? Derek

    MP3 with standard system

    Where do you connect it? I have the standard Bose system with no CD multichanger - is there a connection on the back of the head unit for a changer or xcarlink style kit? Derek
