Hi everyone, I'm a new member. I've recently bought a 1995 honda civic 5 dr hatchback. It's a restoration project and i will be looking for parts

Hi, I have a 67 plate red Honda Jazz. I cannot find the number which indicates code for the red colour of the car paint. I cannot recall having a problem like this with any car previously). Guidance welcomed. Just wanting to buy a small paint repair tube for small chip. Thanks

My Honda 2013 2.2l crv engine cuts out intermittently ? It will restart after cutting out and will run well until the next time days or weeks later. Has any other member had this experience and can advise on the reason it happens.

Well, one year on update. I replaced battery and haven't seen the warning since. No idea if this was correlation or causation but regardless it's now happy!

Should have made clear it is the trailing arm on the rear of the car and 58mm is the length of the central insert.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get new bushes for the front of the trailing arms on a MK5? There seems to be plenty for sale for later models but have been unable to locate one. Are any compatible with the MK5? Outside diameter is about 78mm, central metal insert about 58mm, designed for a M12 bolt.

Hello I have a 2006 FRV with the 2.2 diesel engine. 125k miles. Today the car took several attempts to start. Before it fired it was just a fairly quiet whirring sound and no cranking or turning over. Then it fired ok. Is this an obvious problem/fix? I am really not a car person but does this mean starter motor is done for? All advice very gratefully received

my Honda jazz has started to warn me by bleeping and clock appearing at 15mph...

Sorry, i meant uneven roads

Hi, im new on here, i have a 2005 cr-v only 74k miles on the clock and it has a really annoying squeak coming from the rear drivers side when going over bumps and even roads. ive had it in the garage and they can`t find anything untoward, but it`s there and it is doing my head in. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

I have a 66 plate HR-V EX with electric folding mirrors. The problem I have is they have a mind of their own, and keep opening and closing whilst driving the vehicle. Sometimes they will close for up to 5 mins and there’s nothing I can do to open them again. clearly an electrical / motor issue, has anyone else experienced a similar problem with their HR-V and what suggestions or advice can you offer please? The vehicle has only covered 27,000 miles. obvs the vehicle is now out of warranty. kind regards

Hi all, I'm looking to purchase my first Honda as I'm after a reliable car that is well specced, well built and not going to lose too much value. I may have to resell in the next 2-12 months, depending on where my job takes me but that's irrelevant. My drive to the office is maybe once a week, 30-40 min B road drive so diesel will get up to temp, every short commute I walk. I also do routine hour plus journeys to see friends or go to customer sites. Now I'm deciding between which to buy from the following, and wondered if there's a difference in build quality as you find with say a BMW 1 series vs a 5, or a Mercedes A class vs an E: Civic 8th gen 2.2 EX 2008 Civic 9th gen 2.2 EX GT Hatch 2013 Civic 9th gen 1.6 EX Plus Tourer 2014 Hr-V 1.6 EX 2015 Cr-V 2.2 EX 2013 Accord 2.2 ES GT saloon 2011 Accord 2.2 EX GT Tourer 2008 Just wondering if there's a peak year for build quality. Unsure on the difference in engines i.e power, both slow but plenty of torque. Tax seems great for the i-DTEC unit other than in the accord for some reason. I don't fancy a remap, I know it kills the 8th gen clutches and guessing the 9th is no different. Obviously the spec on the 9th gen EX Plus is great, far beyond everything else here and I love the shape of the tourer, but is the Civic a lesser car than the Accord tourer, as in would the seats be worse, the soft touch materials less and more importantly the ride? Any insight is greatly appreciated!

It's an easy fix; the auto transmission fluid needs to be changed at regular intervals (specific CVT requirement) and when the fluid is losing it's edge the judder is noticeable. Make sure that you use genuine Honda CVT fluid, it's an easy enough job and I've been doing my wife's car ever since the dealer warranty expired; it's 21 years old now.

Hi I've recently bought a Honda CRV (my third Honda CRV in the last 10 years) but in this particular car, my oil light comes on every 1,000-1,500 miles. When I check the dipstick, there is no oul left so I have to keep topping it up. I've read the handbook which states that I may be expected to put 1 litre of oil in every 625 miles. Has anybody else had this problem? Regards

I have a UK 2005 Honda Accord 2.4. Fault: (1) My VSA activation indicator warning triangle light comes on and stay on. (2) The VSA system indication warning light also comes on after a few 100m driving and stays on. I took my care to my local garage and they got an Error Code of 84-1 but their diagnostics tools doesn't allow further investigation and provides several options of possible causes. Therefore they are unable to fix the fault and suggested my car need to go to a Honda Garage or Honda specialised. Any idea's

I would keep trying the release fluid and see if it does eventually free up Alternatively, try gently moving the wheel backwards and forwards in small motions as you try to the key in the lock

Hi Just gone to insert key into lock and it was very stiff and will not turn on. Both keys are the same so I presume it is not the keys. Tried a bit of release fluid on the keys before insertion but that not help either. Has anyone else had the same problem and if so what did you do to overcome it. Didn't help any that the window and roof were open and it started to pour down and no manual closers that I could see. Couldn't believe it!!

Hi, I've recently noticed that when the needle is sat between 60 and 70 mph, the needle bounces. I think the speed sensor could possibly be faulty. Can someone please tell me where the sensor is located? And is it a straightforward replacement? Thanks Simon

Thanks for the replies. I’ve bought some snow/mud chains to fit and we’ll see what difference they make. I can also load the boot up with ballast if needbe (all jokes aside it may assist!)

Ah now that's my passion....nothing like visiting an old English pub in the countryside for a nice pint of ale 🙂

Hello.i have a honda jazz year 2012.i change the battery and the sensor parking not working.i clean them and still nothing.evryone no where is locale the central box for them maybe I cant reset them.i dont have buton for them.thankyou very much.

I think if you have a transmission service done then any loose or worn components will surely be picked up during the service. Let us know how you get on with it
