Not sorted it's gone back to its habit of turning the non-charge schedule OFF for no reason. It's going in to dealer Jan

just thinking that if you are going to change it that you will lose a bit of oil so why not put a little bit more in now and see if the light stays off and what is over the level will be lost with changing the sensor I would imagine

Sounds like it all turned out okay and any repairs are understandable maintenance tasks which any car you'd have to attend to, so nothing out of the ordinary to be concerned about at the moment then. You got a good deal on the car by the sounds of it 🙂 Thanks for sharing the updates

How did you get on with it? Did you go for it or find a cheaper option?

I would start with EuroCarParts and they also have huge discount offers most days If you are after performance parts (lowered springs, uprated dampers, etc) then DemonTweeks is a good company to order parts from

Thanks for posting the pics.....its starting to look good and great colour too.

I would check the door switches first as if any of them are faulty then this could be the reason for the alarm sounding. Open each door in turn and see if the interior light comes on and goes off (including the tailgate) if you find one that doesn't behave as it should then that may be the cause. Also try a battery reset to see if that silences the alarm

Hi, like others here I have just bought a honda jade import. Am looking for the OEM or ID and a supplier/source of the tie rod as it is apparently unlike other Honda ones. may also need to replace the ball joint as the rubber appears a bit cracked. any help or advice appreciated. bee

Here's me answering other people's issues Etc. and I have no idea why my Non-Charge schedule switches from "On to Off" following a charge at home, not always but often. If the car is plugged in to charge but not doing as it's using the schedule, why would it switch to off after the charge? if I demand charge before the schedule should allow charging, say 2 hours or so before midnight which is when it starts to utilise the cheap rate, why would this cancel the schedule and not just overwrite it for the extra. I must check the schedule everytime I plug in as it's impossible to know if it will charge. Honda informed but nothing has come back from them yet. Anyone else experiencing this?

This is bad, it is bound to be forming on other out of view components too. Only ever seen this many years ago on Alfa Romeo Giulietta when it turned out to be windscreen seal not fitted correctly. Is the drain from AC blocked and entering car? You could leave AC off and just try it with fresh air entering, Mention that to Honda Tech, but that will take time for an answer. Sorry, can't help further.

Brand new unused Honda Civic rear bumper bought for a 2005 Civic. Never got the chance to fit it so now no longer required. £50 plus postage if required or deliver locally for a small fee. May be able to meet up Middlesbrough to Bolton this weekend.

Cheers Trevor.

Will do, i'll do some before and after pics

I have done that before on a Nissan X-Trail and worked fine. Just keep the inner and outer driveshaft joints where they are and take the shaft out from it

As it is a brand new car, I would be tempted to pop back to the dealership to ask them if there is a way to change the view settings

Owner manual does indicate "Charge to 100%"

Cleaning by whichever method is the best way forward and then reset the system sensors to learn the revised flow through the DPF Have you got a garage out there that will clean it (or if it is not a strict regulation out there such as the UK MOT tests, then can you get it cut out and remapped to show its still there? p.s. do you attend Le Mans 24 hours by any chance?

Oh dear that sounds like an absolute nightmare! I know that feeling of 'wished i had never started the job' and it is best sometimes to walk away from it for a while and go back with fresh enthusiasm. As you say you can't find the clip then I wonder if it has actually come out and is on the floor or tucked behind a seal or gearbox casting on the outer area of the box? Primarily if sounds like the shafts didn't fully engage in the first place and quite often need a good thump on the inner driveshaft joint to full go home. When fully home, they shouldn't be able to pull out of the box easily (usually require a prybar or suchlike). I am also thinking, are the shafts exactly the same size and amount of splines as the old ones? If you are struggling you can always use the inners from the old shafts with new gaiters and shaft

Have you been presented with the Red Warning icons on the dash 1st thing after power on? I have twice and would seem the computing side of things may be checking the state of charge of the running battery (12v one under bonnet) just a little too soon. The battery state of charge drops overnight or if left for some time as it carries out numerous checks, Alarm, readiness to charge Etc, Etc. The battery does receive charge from the main battery quite quickly upon "Power on", sometimes from as low as 11.4vs up to 14vs in seconds, this I noticed stops the warning appearing. Honda aware of this small anomaly. If it remains "ON" obviously you have issues. Contact Tech for assistance.
