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.

I recently sold my 2010 Honda Accord, but was left with the spacesaver spare wheel, which is now cluttering up my garage. If anyone wants it, all they need to do is collect it! It has never been used.

Best thing is to see what the part number is (possibly label or sticker on the motor) and cross-reference to Civic motor on eBay

We couldn't afford to waste good(?) beer by spraying it up the walls - you were obviously a wealthy person in the '70s :-)

lol.. party 7 spray the ceiling.. ohhh yes

Happy New year Alan Miss the good ol' days!

Hi, my heater blower stopped working, but new ones are expensive, did the 05/06 civic blower heater work for you and the connectors are same ? i have an FRV 2.2 CDi RHD

Hi fellow members any ideas!?

Zappa charger tells me the battery is full when it’s not

Wishing everone a Great Christmas and 2026

Most vehicles nowadays have the facility to retrofit accessories and most of it is in place from the factory (as in wiring loom, fuses, etc). If they car was taken to the dealer for retrofitting lights, etc then it is a case of fitting the lights, putting power to the lights (fuse, switches, etc) and then programming it into the CanBus system to activate it.

My 2014 Jazz is not fitted with Daylight running loghts, thinking of retro fit. Notice that cabin fuse box has pos15 labelled DRL, does this mean the car is wired for DRL ready for lights to be fitted. Any motor sparky help Thanks BB

Hi all, admins delete if inappropriate, either way thankyou for your help and advice. Up for grabs here: 1998 Honda Civic Aerodeck 1.8 Vti for sale | eBay

Thanks again for your advice

They used to sell CV gaiters that were split and you placed them over the CV joint and ran glue along the length to secure it along with the clips each end. They sort of worked but were a little bit rigid so would pull off the joint but at least they lasted long enough for an MOT test :-)

Thanks for the input, yup I'm sure the garage will get to the bottom of the sensor(s) problem. Those damn rubber gaiters, expensive job because the amount of man hours. When is someone going to manufacture boots you can install with the driveshafts in situ

Good and bad news then ! CV gaiter is relatively cheap and easy to sort ABS and SRS lights - I would look for any connections under seats (for the SRS) and under the bonnet and each wheel (for the ABS). I believe there is a limited OBD interaction that you can read codes for engine but not sure that it goes deep enough for SRS and ABS. Sometimes it is a common factor such as poor connections on the battery or earth connections to the chassis

I'm not aware that these components would in fact fail due to inherent faults and are not necessarily maintenance items. The turbocharger is best maintained by ensuring the air filter is in good condition and also the engine oil is of the correct grade and quality.

Thanks Trevor Should I consider replacing components like the water pump and turbo before they fail as their failure can cause consequential damage ?
