Honda General Discussions

Hi all, Im new here :). I am currently looking at a Honda Civic SE Executive, everything looks ok apart from the GOV website report that it has an outstanding recall on it and to contact local honda dealer. I have contacted them and they said that they can't give me any details on the recall due to GDPR!!. I've searched about and its recommended not to buy a vehicle with a recall. . is there any where I can get the recall information from? Also, would antone be able to explain why its not recommended to buy with outstanding recall if the dealership will be fixing it for free?

Good Morning All, just wondering if anyone has had issues using supermarket diesel rather than a brand name such as Esso or Shell. I know the brands claim that their diesel has better cleaning agents and you should get better mpg, but is that the case. Any suggestions

Hi I have a 2013 Honda and want to update the sat nav. I think there is a USB port behind the glove box for updating it? What a silly place! Also I am not sure were I can get the file from as Garmin don't support 2013 anymore ? Thank you so much for your time

Does anyone know of an independent garage for mechanical work in Hertfordshire? pete

Turns out the Stream is a rare beast. I hit a deer and the grille shattered. There are very few on the market and they are £500+ from a franchised dealer. Does anyone have a grille in their shed or at the back of their garage they want to flog? Its a 2004 model.

Should I use the Cig or USB outlet to charge my 2017 Nokia TA-1024 phone? Not sure if 12V is too much. Thanks.

Can anyone help? Honda recently changed the battery in my 67 plate HRV, after they changed it they said all the lights were on and it has a VSA unit fault, which will cost £2000 to replace. There was not a fault before replacing the battery and everything was working fine. Has anyone had a similar issue?

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.

We have a 2010 Honda Stepwagon RK5 with intermittent ignition issues. At key turn there’s always power, but sometimes it starts and sometimes it’s dead. The starter is fine and the local mechanic has changed the ignition switch to see if that’s the problem. He suggested it was wear on the key as depending on how the key is pressured when you turn it has an impact on whether it starts. I disagree with this because the issue is the same with both keys, and they both worked fine before this started happening. Is this likely to be an ignition barrel issue? Any other thoughts on diagnosis?

Do all civic and FIT hatches leak??? Every single one I’ve owned has leaked. It is not always the seal, it is structural. Has anyone else had this experience? There is one UTube structural repair instructional video. Suzie

Can anyone help my daughter. She has a 2002 Honda Stream 2.0 SE Sport. She needs parts for her exhaust. Has anyone got a diagram of the exhaust system so we can work out which bit to get. Seems to be broken behind silencer in front of rear axle. Thanks

Hi All, I need some Honda expert advice. I recently bought a Honda CRV EX (2016). When the wipers are on the wiper motor makes a relatively high pitch whirring/whining sound. It is very obvious. When I freeway you don't notice it but around the local roads if I do not have the radio on it is very noticeable and annoying. I sat in two friends CRVs and they do not have the noise, only the wiper blades on windscreen. This is not that. I took back to the dealer and they took it in to replace the wiper motor (genuine). I got it back and they said it made no difference and the sound is still there. They said that it seems to be a normal thing with these Honda CRV w…

Trying to load my phone on my Jazz 2018 (just bought) seems as if the list is full, how do I clear list and how do I load my phone, I have no manual, waiting for new one. can anyone help ART-C

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!!

Hello everyone. I have just joined the Club a few minutes ago. I appreciate your help. The car we bought last summer is fitted with the auto-box and we haven't got the manual ..... Question concerning the auto-box oil change that I intend to carry-out myself. a) How many litres should I get? b) I read somewhere that you should change the plug with each gearbox oil change. Is this correct? If yes, where does one get one ? Thank you all for your answers.

Hi , I thought I would share this tip with you, I have been using DiamondBrite Ceramic Glaze for a while after washing my CRV and the results are fantastic, It comes in a Spray Bottle and its easy to use, it puts a ceramic glaze protective coating on the paintwork and provides excellent beading when it rains. its not that expensive and gives a mirror like finish after use, My car is Night Hawk Black so not easy to keep clean but this certainly helps.Give it a try and let other Members know if your as pleased as I am with the result Just a Tip Guys BAZZER RN 1
