    DPF regeneration...

    Ah that's helpful info regarding coasting in gear. I only had mine for about 1k miles and not really figured out when it Regen yet. But lets say its on a Regen just as you are coming to journey end. Do you have to drive extra miles then so it completes? That's just so counterproductive in...

    i-DTEC Clutch Slip

    I read aa fair bit on this. It's almost certainly the self adjusting mechanism that caused the issue. There's a video somewhere on YouTube explaining how it works.

    Test drove an Accord 2.2 i DTEC EX 4dr (08) - enocountered noise

    spare wheel

    Thanks for that info. Will have a look a mytyres.

    spare wheel

    Hopefully getting my 2014 tourer on Saturday. Will a full size spare definitely fit? If not will a 16 inch space saver from a mark 7 be suitable -these seem to be going for much less on the well known auction site. Cheers
