Many thanks Trevor , hopefully have found an Auto electrician to look at it for me, with the assistance of a roof guide that came with the car.

Congratulations on your purchase! Hope you share photos for us to see & enjoy.

Hello, just picked up my first Honda, a lovely 2012 Accord 2.2 D on a EX spec, very impressive.

Thanks b4u2, i just got my hopes up when i saw this: https://www.civinfo.com/threads/illuminated-steering-wheel-controls.34333/#lg=thread-34333&slide=0 maybe it's been photoshopped!

Honda CR-V MK1 2000 year. Engine 2.0. Comfortable and good car, many parts are replaced with new ones. Straps, brakes, arm fasteners and rubbers ,etc. Open to offers 🤷Honda 2.0 l , no MOT.

@JRB Hi, thanks for joining honda owners club I don't think so. Hope that helps you.

I'm new to the forum and couldn't find a thread dealing with this. We have just bought a 2012 CRV 2.0 EX (3rd gen). and wondered if the steering wheel controls (media, cruise etc) are supposed to be illuminated at night. I have seen some photos on another forum suggesting they should be, but ours aren't. if they should be, I can start trying to fix. Otherwise I guess we'll learn the buttons eventually! Can anyone confirm yes or no to this?

When i inquired about having a re-mapp, they asked what the mileage was and if i was on the original clutch, as you mentioned the extra power will make the clutch slip. As my Civic has done 135000 miles and on the original clutch so i took their advice and i had the lot changed by Honda. The only thing i must mention is that the EGR Valve gasket must be in good order as mine is leaking a little as i can smell a wiff of fumes coming into the car when at a standstill, so the next work to be done shortly.

Bought a brand-new Tyre for my lovely HRV’s MOT,sadly it failed and I scrapped the car so I’m selling the wheel.it’s literally only been driven to the MOT station and home. not sure how to insert an image here, but I can send one by email WhatsApp etc. Based in South Manchester.

Hi I’m looking for a timing belt stopper plate for a 97/02 Honda cry 2L can anyone help please thanks

I have a Honda crv 2014 the problem I have is the first regenerate light doesn’t come on goes strait to DPF exclamation go to the dealer can any one help

@IM786 Yes main dealers are always more expensive.

Took the car in this morning to get dealer to eradicate the creaking sound in the cabin and of course asked them about that welcoming chime: as I feared the bloke confirmed that it can't be deactivated. Grrrrrrrrrrr!

I would agree that it is probably a battery fault and worth a visit to Halfords to have it checked and replaced if necessary However as b4u2 has mentioned if you have only just bought the car through a trader then you should go back to them for reimbursement of the cost to replace the battery. Not so sure you could pursue costs through a private sale though

Is the air conditioning switched on when this occurs?

Ebay would be my first choice to source one https://www.ebay.co.uk/b/Vehicle-Parts-Accessories/131090/bn_1838652?mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&siteid=3&campid=5338938280&customid=HondaKW&toolid=20012&mkevt=1

Have you managed to get this issue sorted? Bit strange that both have failed at the same time, anything that coincided with the failure (e.g. any work been carried out recently, flat battery?)

It could be the wiring that goes through the rubber from the Bulkhead (A-Post area) to the Door which articulates when it bends back and forth which leads to broken wires. Pull it back and reveal the wiring to see if there are any breaks

Not sure a software / firmware update will sort this issue but certainly worth confirming the dealer can do this Possibly a Bluetooth adapter to connect with your phone to the car audio system is a cheaper move?

DieselHonda. Thanks for the feedback always nice to know the outcome

First thought is that it may be a poor earth connection which could be causing the slow starting issue (even if the battery has 12.3 volts) as the power will not be reaching the components that require the earth return (e.g. starter motor) As for the alarm, could be worth checking all earth connections and leads to ensure tight and free from corrosion. After that I would check all the sensors (bonnet, boot, doors, etc) to see if the interior light goes off when opened and closed Finally check for any water ingress into the electrics, underbonnet relay and fusebox and also underneath the dashboard

Cheers mate I'll have a look at them other wise I'll look on ebay for replacements

Would be worth operating it up and down and liberally spraying all joints and moving parts with WD40 to see if it eases up Also check the connections to the sensors to see that are secure and free from contamination

Worth checking your rear lights aren't leaking water into the boot. Quite common place for water to come in and track along the boot area to the lowest point. If you remove the lamp units and see if the water has been getting through the seal and reseal with clear silicon if necessary
