New Members Introductions

Hi Folks, The forum gods suggested I do an into post so here goes. Bought my first Honda after years of my brother saying they are great cars. Bought an 06 FRV with 130k miles, great little 6 seater car, my Mechanic even approved (which is saying somthing) going to try fix it up as a weekend/mini camper. So any tips on fitting all terrain tyres, roof rails, new seats, storage for tents etc. very much welcome and appreciated!

Hi Trever Thanks for the reply, sorry I've been away for a bit, but things are slowly but surly getting back to some sort of normality and my days are getting fuller. I agree with your observation about the gadgets in the car, but I have worked my way through the owners manual, and have just about sorted them all out !! I have also downloaded the 'Honda e' app on my phone, and added the extras, 'O.K. Honda' etc., (Very useful). You can locate the car anywhere, and perform certain functions like locking or unlocking the doors, and sound the horn to find it in a multi story carpark or large parking area. Neil

Hi I am a new member and have recently bought a nearly new (ex demo) Jazz Hybid. So far I am very pleased and impressed with it. I am getting up to 70 mph locally, and am also pleased with the performance and equipment level. As an ex demo it is the top of the range SE with all the 'whistles and bells'. I look forward to sharing others opinions of this model. Neil

Hello all. I have a barn find. Not really a find as I put it there! SORN since 2014 but I thought I would like to get her roadworthy again. I usually started up every six month or so but have been neglectful lately and it's been a couple of years. Unusual model: Integra XSi, 1990 that I have had since new (import). I had a feeling there was a charging issue but couldn't recall so I put a new battery in (random purchase from Halfords) and she started first time. Checked the battery and had 12.5v. And was charging at 14.5v. So all good. Drove around the field but then I noticed the charge light had come on. And stays on. Any ideas anyone? …

Going to be taking my old 2.2 ictdi mk7 accord on track, as I’m getting a new car in the coming weeks. what performance gains can I get and what mods are available for the N22A2 engines? I have already had an EGR and DPF DELETE, race cat, and straight piped twin tip exhaust, stage 1 remap, battery has been relocated to the boot and a ram air cold air intake fitted. I’m waiting on delivery of a lightweight flywheel, and performance clutch. What further performance mods are available for this engine.

Hi I am new to the site although I have been running Hondas for several years starting with grey imports, a 1.5 CRX on carbs, followed by a DC2 SIR Integra then a DC5 Type R Integra. as my user name implies "Old" perhaps if I had the DC5 a few years earlier it would have been great, but as a daily driver it and the roads around here (Staffs Moorlands) the DC5 was bril 10% of the time but a pian the rest. Went sensible with a 56 plate Accord Estate (being a cyclist hatch's and estates are best). However a bit of mid life crisis went after another CRX but a UK one, saw loads as use to have Fridays off and this was the best but TBH not really. sill covers of…

Hi All , just in the process of looking to buy a Red civic mk8 2.2 diesel , always loved the look in red , same engine as my wife's accord gen 7 , which has been a superb car.

My 15 plate jazz has a rip on the drivers seat at the side from getting in and out of the car just wondered what these replacement seat covers are like thanks

Hello all!.Just signed up here. I may not be a typical member...🙃 OK. I'm 72 and got my Honda in 2012 from my brother, who is younger than me. Most people are... He had it from new in 2004. It's a 5 door 2.0L Type S..which I believe is a fairly uncommon beast. Still only on 72000 miles after 17 years. All original and I have no interest in modifying or customising it. Just hoping it lasts well enough to save me buying another car before I start dribbling or forget my name etc. 🤣. I'm long past the days of changing engines on the drive in midwinter etc, so I leave most work to younger fitter chaps these days, but I do change the oil and filter reg…

Hi guys new to the forum, Abit about me I've owned a 2003 ep2 civic for about 3 and a half years as my first car before that was tragically destroyed in a crash, since then I've owned a Kia proceed 1.6 diesel 2010 and it's been absolutely abysmal and unreliable in comparison. I'm now looking at buying another civic and due to having a baby on the way and with ulez compliance being required I have been looking at 2015 honda civic 1.8 sport nav. Does anyone have any experience with this model? Is it still as reliable as my old car and does the VTEC still kick in for fun like I remember

Hi my name is Marc (new member) and I own a metalic bronze 1978 Hoda Civic 1.2 5 door. The car is in excellent condition and runs well apart from a recent problem of the carburetor leaking badly after priming and restarting car after 18 months lay up. I have contacted the local Portsmouth Honda dealer who was very helpful and passed my request for a carb refirb kit to Honda UK. Unfortunately they are unable to help due to the age of the car, and I was wondering if any member can point me in the right direction. The carb in question is a GT3 DCG - 306 - 45A. As the car runs well I will only require a gasket and O ring kit if possible. Any help wou…

Hi, own a Honda Jazz auto 1.3. Hope I won't need too much info on it. I'm sure this is the place if I do.

New member this is our seventh Honda. The Jazz is the wife's vehicle as I have a CRV. Hopefully I can contribute and get assistance as required.

I’m looking to upgrade my engine’s power supply either by remapping or other means. I have a Honda BRV petrol 88kw and the engine is very lazy at low revs: 2-3500 rpm as the revs increase beyond this the performance is adequate.
