My gen 9 civic 1.6 DTEC is in need of a few brake related parts. Local Honda dealership price and availability of brake caliper seal kits £70 per axel and ordered from Brussels. Jeeze there's only 1 ring seal and 1 expanding boot seal per caliper. I questioned if this was the complete caliper or just the seals. Appears the calipers are near £500 per corner. Halfords and the likes will only supply complete calipers, looking to increase their profits. I'm going to require discs, pads and brake fluid can anyone advise a cheap reliable one stop shop or do I need to search tinternet. Love my Honda though its not without design problems. Cant see speedometer as steering w…

The time has come for me to part with my Honda HRV 2002. It is worth very little on the open market but I'm hoping someone who loves these cars as much as I do might like to consider it. I don't know how to go about finding a match, so thought a shout out in here might be worth a try. I'm in Cobham, Surrey

Morning all I have been offered a Honda Civic 1.8 type S as im leaving my present job with a company car for a new job without so I need a run around mainly for work ,car has 12 months MOT just wondering if there is any problems with the cars or is it a bargain

Its around four weeks since I had the 4 mismatched tryes replaced on my CRV and the difference is noticeable on the ride and steering. I've used Avon before on my transits and been happy with them so when I was offered 4 at a very good price I went for it. Think they thought I was mad as the old tryes had plenty of tread left but I hated having 4 difference make of tyres and the price won't come again!!

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: …

Hi Guys Have just read the Which Motoring Magazine report on the Safety of Honda CRVs It might be worth Members reading this report which is very interesting Best Wishes BAZZER RN 1

Hi where can I buy genuine car seat covers for a honda civic please

Advice please - Tyres for a 2005 CRV the front are 215 - 65-16 T the back 215-65-16 H. The tyre presure label on the door pillar just shows 215-65-16 T some trye outlets mention a diifences rating front and back and some don't !! I understand it's about speed, but I not likely to go over 70 in the old girl, so what do I buy the same all round or T front- and H back. Alan

Hi there everyone, I have owned a honda stepwagon 2010 rk5 for nearly a year now and its an amazing car. I am currently looking for a few bits for its next mot like discs n pads, tie rods and suspension arms or all the bushes. I heard that honda use the same parts already available for other models and I am hoping someon1e knows this information because buying the parts that are sold just stating stepwagons are ridiculously overpriced. Kind regards Christian

Read the article at the bottom of this page about Headlight cleaning has anyone used these kind of products and found they worked or has a homemade product that made a diffence. Alan

Seems my 2005 CRV desel 2.2 CRV is after 136.000 mikes in need of a new clutch been given a priice of £1100 fitted does this seem a fair price? Its booked in for next week at the local garage I use. Alan

Honda in the States have recalled 750.000 Honda vehicles including CRV's for having Air Bag Faults. A number of Honda Vehicle models are involved lets hope its just the American Imported Hondas involved, no mention of UK Cars being recalled, worth checking out BAZZER RN 1

Hi sorry if this is in the wrong forum .. I have a 2007 civic 2.2 cdti and the headlights are shocking ... What bulb upgrades do people recommend? Thankyou

Any one no what this image means please ? Many thanks Simon

I have a 2006 Jazz automatic. Last year it passed its MOT with an Advisory that the brake discs were corroded but not seriously weakened. This year at the same garage (but in the absence of the owner who was not well) it failed its MOT and the discs were classified as Dangerous. However the car had only done 200 miles from the previous MOT. Is this plausible given the low intervening mileage and the report in the previous year's MOT ('not seriously weakened')? In any case, couldn't the rust just be cleaned off - or are brake discs so cheap that one might just as well replace with new.

I need some technical advice Guys, When I switch on the Ignition on the CRV from cold star, The Radiator Fan Starts and goes off after about 5 mins, It then clicks and comes on again and goes off etc, Has anyone else had this problem, I think it is draining the battery when this is happening, Coolant level is fine ,all topped up, I have changed the coolant Sensor and now at a loss, I could go on changing Sensors, i.e, the Radiator Module and the Radiator Switch and Relays but this is just an expensive procedure. Has anyone had this problem or can help in solving it .Its getting frustrating not knowing what might be the cause. Any help would be appreciated Cheer…

Hi All Just a little Tip for the non informed like myself, If you have to replace your Brake Light Switch at any time and your Car has Cruise Control, make sure that the Replacement Switch has Four Contacts , otherwise if you get the Two Contact version then the Cruise Control will not operate correctly, Just a Tip Bazzer RN 1

Hi going round in circles, need to remove battery for work to be carried out, however no one seems to know if the car has a radio code or not, nothing with paperwork and main agents don’t know. Thanks in anticipation paul

Hi All, Had an expensive week , on Monday booked in for MOT It passed no problem £ 50.00, on Wednesday noticed the ABS & VAS Lights on the dash were on all the time took it to the Garage they did a check and found out the Rear Wheel Sensor needed replacing ,this was done for £ 94.00, then the ABS Lights came on again and a shuddering when braking, this was found to be caused by a worn Rear Wheel Bearing, so back to the Garage again had this replaced and fixed £ 160.00 , so a weeks bill of £ 304.00 + vat . a lot of dosh but at least it done, the steering is 100% better and no Christmas lights on the Dash, apparently all of these faults according to the Dealer are…
