Honda General Discussions

Hi, I am a new model Jazz owner, which I bought in the summer. As part of the deal, the dealer insisted that I took out some of their extra insurances, one of which was repairs to cosmetic alloy wheel damage insurance. Now I know from experience how easy it is to scuff alloys and it wasn’t too expensive, so I agreed. Anyway unfortunately we did manage to scuff a wheel on a curb, but then I thought, no worries, I have the insurance. I got in touch, had approval for the repair and the guy turned up as agreed. So far so efficient. However, as the repair guy apologetically pointed out to me, the silver bits on my smart black and silver alloys are in fact not alloy at all but …

Hi, Hoping someone can help a Newbie here 1. The lighter has stopped working on my Elysion - suspect a blown fuse, which would be a nice easy fix if so. Can't figure out though which fuse to replace though - see attached pic. 2. Any know where I can download a English owners manual ? Lots of Japanese options on Google ... not so many in English. Any help on either question would be really appreciated. Thanks.

The Average Family Car. Research commissioned by Honda in line with the launch of the all-new HR-V e:HEV The average car will see 30 day trips, 2,496 songs played - and 24 spillages in the typical year. A study of 2,000 motorists revealed the average vehicle will cover off 62 miles per week – that’s 3,224 annually – and see three bouts of car sickness while doing so. While a whopping 43 hours will be spent sitting in stationary traffic in total across the year. One quarter of drivers say they’ve also enjoyed key milestone moments in their beloved car, such as witnessing a child’s first word or making an emotional trip to take offsp…

I have a 2019 Civic 1.0 turbo and the ACC cruise control system keeps stopping working. I get quite a few orange warning lights about cruise control, lane divergence etc. I also am getting a flat spot when depressing the accelerator pedal. This occurs when trying to pull away from a crawling speed at lights, roundabouts etc. Anyone else had similar problems, please?

I am owner of a 2015 honda crv.....the infotainment system has stopped working (just get the Honda brand logo and a small spinning wheel - looks like its searching for something). I have taken it into the Honda dealer (Listers Northampton) and they say nothing can be done other than replacing the unit, and are quoting me £3,500 for this. Has anyone come across this before or am I being taken for ride?! Thanks Phil

I recently bought a Honda CRV SE plus, 2018. Can anyone tell me if this has Apple CarPlay as standard. Android phone is listed but no Apple CarPlay. Using Siri I can get music, make calls and get voice directions but Google maps does not appear on car screen.

RE: 2018 Odyssey Touring. Had/have again warning appear that "Road departure mitigation system off" then goes back on. Now new warning; "Engine management system problem" now on. There are no engine codes stored so hard to make diagnosis. Last summer Honda supposedly did recall service 20- 047 to update for guage control. Suggestion is to take back to Honda for new SoftWare update. Anyone else with same issue?

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…

I'm so jealous my colleague at work has put his name down for a new Type R, more suited for the older gent as it doesn't have the boy racer spoiler. Apparently it has been lowered to compensate for the spoiler, it looks the dogs.

Took my Honda CRV 2007 in for its MOT it failed they did work on it went to pick it up now the low beams are not working and the radio CD player is not working any thoughts as to what they may have done that's caused this to happen as can not believe it's just a coincidence.

I've just bought some 5th gen prelude seats for my 1999 aerodeck which have the zebra print centre section. I want to get some fabric printed so i can do my door cards in the same print. Does anyone know the best way of going about getting a design or picture of the print or any idea how i could get hold of it? Thanks!

Hi, would anyone know where i could purchase a internal seal for 30100-PDA-E02 distributor on my 1999 Accord 2.0 vtec, this distributor is now unavailable and my internal seal is leaking and oil is getting through to my dizy cap.

Hi, Looking for info on the petrol/oil dilution issue that is reported, mainly abroad, and affects the turbo engine.....is the non turbo engine still affected......or is it all not a problem in the U.K......

Hi , has anyone experienced this. Whilst driving the car will seem to lose power and the engine management light cones on .this lasts a few seconds before all going back to normal . Also this is not a everyday occurrence, perhaps once a fortnight, The car is used daily.

I did notice when I first bought the car, however my Wife noticed some scratchey sound on the hi notes, I noticed it also. This was when tuned to Sirus xm. So I tried it on FM and noticed the same issue. Anybody help ?

Excuse this tech question in 'general' but the answer could come from any model... Is there any way to fit a CVT transmission to a B20B engine? I hate the auto in my 96 Stepwagon and I love CVTs!

Honda is to recall around 78,000 CR-V models in the UK after a possible fire risk was established. A gap between the car’s window switch prompted fear that liquid could cause a short circuit. Honda warns that it would even “catch fire” in extreme circumstances. In a statement, a Honda spokesperson said: “In 2012 Butyl tape was applied to the power window master switch (PWMS) as part of a market safety recall to prevent liquid exposure to the inside of the PWMS. “However a gap could exist between the applied Butyl tape and PWMS case, liquid could then accumulate in that gap and over time this could lead to liquid entering into the PWMS. “Onc…
