hi all I own honda fr-v 2008 2.2 n22a2 engine but im unable to find the pcv valve. Can anyone please spot its location ? Thanks

Out of lots of bikes I have owned 3 have been Hondas and all have impressed. I drove an Accord for some years until it was written off and later I bought a Civic 1.6 SE Executive for my wife. We have owned it since 2005 and it was used by all the family when needed. Always serviced annually it has not been so thoroughly cared for recently, other than annual oil changes. I would like to think that it could continue giving service either as a restoration project or even as spares for another car. I would like it to go to an enthusiast rather than just a breaker. If no one is interested I will just put it on ebay. The body is reasonable and the engine/gearbox as sweet as ever at around 103000 miles. Underneath is a different story. Still in use with MoT to 03. 04.26 it rocks and rolls like a boat but the leather interior is as comfy as ever. Is it of interest to anyone on here?

WOW! what a wonderful old Honda - cannot say I have seen one of those for at least 40+ years Hopefully someone will buy it to restore it back to its former glory

not sure, sorry! but I would try to find the most reputable rebuilder rather than the cheapest as they are incredibly complex and expensive to put right afterwards. Surprised there are no exchange / rebuilt boxes out there

Looking for an automatic gearbox or sumone who can repair it near glasgow

Replacing the heater fan. Honda FR-V

Hello, My Dad died in August 2025. He had kept an old N600 in his garage for 40 years - always planning it to be his 'next project'! It is not in good condition, but I would say it's surprisingly good for 40 years! It hasn't run since approx 1985 - so it would require a complete rebuild. I'm not hoping for much - would just like it to be of some use to someone! At the very least, is there a market for spares etc? (ps: the photo is a bit sad - I have since cleared away all of the surrounding rubbish! As you can see, the engine and chassis are still 'in one piece'!)

Hi i am trying to remove the screws which holds the fan blow, first 2 screws are easy to access, however, the third screw is difficult to get to, has any replace fan blower on FRV or has any tips on how to reach the third screw? Thanks

eBay link to a Smoke Generator: Smoke Generator

Also, it could be leaking through the tailgate seals or even rear screen washer hose is damaged and allowing water to drip into the boot area. The ultimate way to resolve the issue is to run a Smoke Generator inside the boot area and see where it comes out from

More than likely coming through from the rear light clusters - worth removing them and seeing if the gaskets have been letting water past them. If so, and before refitting it would be prudent to smear some silicone on the gaskets before refitting them

Thats good to know as a recommendation for others, thanks!

Oh its frightening how much things were back then but in my day £1 was a huge amount of money as pocket money then was two and half pence (was the old shilling) and could get quite a bit from the sweetshop with that much. But life was not really under the influence of money and possessions and the good times and memories reflect that. Equally, a new car then was a percentage of the amount of your salary, which apparently today's money it is still that same percentage Interesting post, thanks Alan

That looks in great condition and worth the price for sure.

re my last post. my 2001 honda civic coupe 1.7 vetec is up for sale. 1 previous owner ( family member). has passed 25 mot's. 63500 miles from new. history. auto,aircon,sunroof, leather interior,5 refurbed original alloys, cd/cassette players. all original equipment as from new. no rust,bodywork good. looking for £2000 to £2500. this becomes a modern classic. only 199 models in uk.

For some unknown reason I appear to be collecting water in my spare wheel well. The mats above are not damp and the seals look good. Has an had something similar, what is the solution?

I hope you didn't pay full price for that awful job. You could make a blank and paint it with a complimentary colour. A local independent paint sprayer could give good advice.

I changed them with exeon H11. It is better and not too bright for other drivers.

Definitely a rare one to see on the roads nowadays - feel free to post an advert in the forums to see if you get some interest from any members. Maybe post up some pics of the Civic and some more info to assist with selling it.

Could be faulty parking brake switch.

The indicated mileage is based on your last driving habit along with external and internal temperature together with battery temperature. Is A.C on, heater fan, seat heats, radio, phone charger switched on, etc. etc.?

Might help if the make, model, variant, year of manufacture were mentioned.

I have an unusual issue. I left the car parked for four weeks. Started fine, however I have four rapid beeps, this goes of when i get above about 10mph, it also goes off when stationary when I apply the handbrake. Cannot find anything about what this annoying beeping is. Apart from this the car drives well, and the Japanese voice and sat nav in Japan is a great talking point

i have had my 2001 honda civic 1.7 coupe since 2016 previous owner from new was a family member. the car has done 63500 miles with history. fully maintained. this car is now a rare site on our roads. as i am now getting on in years i am looking for a dedicated honda lover to take it of my hands and take care of it.
