Hi All! Not been on for a LONG time, as the Accord's moved on, but just I’ve had a mechanic friend of mine get in touch with an issue he’s trying to resolve on a Euro R Accord (’05) that he’s got in: (The R8, is the mechanic’s – lucky sod!) The problem – a vibration that usually, but not...

I'm about to plumb in a boost gauge, which has a feed to wire into the car's night-time dimmer function for the dash and other interior lights. Does anyone know what wire to tap for that on a 7th Gen Facelift CTDi? There must be one somewhere, as the dials dim when the lights go on. Whichever...

I've been running a Stage 2 EGR Off Map, which I've been very happy with, for quite a while now, but have also been tracking what a few people over on Civinfo have been doing in terms of creating a 'Hybrid' CTDi turbo and looking to achieve power well over 200hp. This has really progressed in...

I've taken time this summer to sort out a lot of to-do jobs for the Accord - New front and rear Ferodo Discs/Pads, Full Service with Millers Nano Oil and full refurb of my spare ATR Calipers. I also sent off my standard 17" EX Alloys for a refurb, but didn't want to get them diamond cut again...

Recently I decided to refurb my spare standard front brake calipers, just to have them ready in case I ever needed them. I've refurbed quite a few sets of brakes before, so wasn't concerned. I also got OEM Honda refurb kits as I don't like the quality of aftermarket ones. All was fine until I...

Can you get replacement wiring loom multiplugs and terminals from Honda? I'm in the middle of installing a reverse camera and the terminal housing I've bought doesn't fit the socket on the back of the Navi DVD. However - I've noticed that the socket on the Navi DVD is exactly the same as...

After an argument with a rain-filled pothole my PAS rack is knackered. The NS of the rack is pi**ing out fluid; it looks like the seal is gone and the arm is probably bent. I'm looking to source a second-hand rack, but want to check: Is the PAS rack common to both pre- and post-facelift Gen 7...

After an argument with a water-filled pothole, which my NSF tyre lost, I've noticed a the Accord now pulls to the left. When I checked the Geometry the castor on the NSF was out quite a bit and I was told it was probably the lower suspension arm, as apparently it bends easily when subjected to...

After thinking my hesitation had gone the car started to stagger a little bit today during one drive, which annoyed me, but as I was cleaning the EGR tonight anyway I thought I'd have a close look at it then... When I stripped everything down there was black crud everywhere - the MAP was...

I had a slight hesitation when I bought my CTDi, but the Elite Remap really highlighted that there was a problem. I cleaned the swirl valve, MAF and MAP sensors, EGR (although, I think, not properly) and what parts of the intake manifold I could get to, but this didn't change anything. I then...
