  1. Hi. Had the car 18 months - 2 years now but used it longer as it was the in-laws so drove it a fair bit before we bought it from them when they moved onto a Jazz.

  4. Hi there, im hoping someone can help me, My Dad owned a Honda prelude silver 1993 around 2001/2 before he passed, private plate was put onto the vehicle C14NMJ. I can only find information from 2006 to 2012. Last time it was on the road from what I can find is 2010 and the last V5c issue was 2012, if anyone can help with further information on this would be greatly appreciated! Mitchell Pheby

  5. I had an old model (1st generation) CR-V drive past me yesterday and it was kitted out for off-road. Have to say it looked very impressive and judging by this video it is not all show but indeed can go offroad as well

  7. Ah that's an even better price then! Clutches can wear faster when towing heavy weights (twin axle car trailer for example) but it is also the stop-start motion on the transmission which is being pushed to the limit unless the trailer is braked and then this can reduce the 'whiplash' on the transmission components

  8. Hi, l have just joined this club, because of my very recent purchase of an HR-V 1.6 automatic 2002. 3 door. I live in Stoke On Trent, am in my late 60s,s and am disabled, but still able to drive, which I still enjoy. If I say so myself I was a good amateur mechanic, but alas the mind is still willing, but the body is no longer able to juggle the spanners, and to be truthful I do miss it. I have never owned a Honda before, but can say I am amazed at how well this car drives, being smooth, and very responsive for a 22-year-old. So hello all, I will be asking some questions, but I also very much hope I may be able to help others if they get stuck.

  9. @johnccwatkins Hi John, thanks for your post. If i was you then would take it up with honda head office. It's totally unaccceptable & they should give you a courtesy car. Otherwise go legal with court.

  13. Proud owner of a 2005 CR-V and I love - as does my wunnerful wife 🙂 On my 3rd day of ownership a cyclist <ptooh> going through a red light smahed my RH light and moved the bonnet half an inch - and then limped away very rapidly (!!!) away carrying his bike. Still haven't worked out how to getthe courtesy lights to come on when I open the doors, but I'm sure that it will happen with time. I still haven't found out where to get a satnav disc for a vehicle this old, but I'm sure that that's what the forums are for, so see you there. best regards, Barrie - BJthe1DJ ps. In case you ask, in these woke days I can no longer call myslef BJtheDJ <sigh>

  15. Being a big dog person.... I wouldn't dream of giving my dogs food, treats or toys from China, Thailand, Vietnam and the like. The word 'China' and 'dog' conjures up images of dogs being beaten to death, throats cut, put in hot oil and cooked alive and eaten – images I would rather not have seen. In the US there are dogs that died of kidney disease after eating treats from China Perhaps the majority of people don't realize or maybe aren't concerned about the origin of the products. I’m told also of pet food manufacturers buying from China and adverting they are from the UK. Some get away with it by saying – they are packed in the UK, they just miss out the bit about being imported from China! What pet food brands are made in China? China Pet Food Company List include ADM. Affinity Petcare SA. Alltech. Clearlake Capital Group, L.P. (Wellness Pet Company Inc.) General Mills Inc. Mars Incorporated. Nestle (Purina) PLB International. PLEASE know that if you choose to buy any treat made in China, your pet may be at risk. Chicken jerky treats, chicken tenders, chicken strips, chicken treats, or sweet potato treats, they can all pose a potential threat. Many deaths have been caused from two chemical additives that were present in some of the food: melamine and cyanuric acid. When both melamine and cyanuric are present in pet food, they form dangerous crystals in the kidneys of the dogs and cats who ingest them. Toys made in China, for example, have a higher rate of toxins and lead found in their toys. I’m told that all the supermarkets and the big retail pet stores sell treats from China UK made Pet Foods include The Dog Takeaway …….. www.petaroni.com Bucher’s Dog Food – www.butchersdogfood.co.uk Albion Dog Food - www.albionpetfoods.co.uk Food UK treats Poland Alan

  16. Welcome Trevor, cross check who owners the brand, some are very clever at making statement like UK based, produced in the UK etc when often it means it's made in the EU, China etc and just packaged here for resale.

  17. Hi Barrie....welcome to the Club Very unfortunate incident and no insurance payout? 😞 Not sure about the SatNav disc but if its not in the head unit in the dash then it may be in the boot area behind a panel Good to have you onboard!

  18. Hi all, New user here. Thought I'd say hi. I'm Chas. Huge car lover! Obviously Honda's are my favourite. I restore and tinker in my spare time. Projects seem to be getting bigger and bigger 🤦😂. Last year a CL9 and EJ9 rehomed with loving families. We've just said goodbye to our FN2 type R to fund our ongoing EJ2 project. Hope to share some pictures soon. 😋

  19. Hi Chas....welcome to the Club A glutton for punishment with restoring Honda's but they are amongst the best cars to work on compared to many other makes. I was always working on MG and Rover cars as not too dissimilar to Honda and always enjoyed working on them. Good to have you on board and you are welcome to assist in answering any posts that you can as you have the in-depth knowledge

  24. I am a new member. I have a CRV Hybrid 2020 with 29k on the clock. Last week the brakes failed ( at slow speed fortunately).The RAC recovered me to my dealer .The diagnosis was failure of a key component 01469 TPA E92. Which will cost £ 2,150 to fix. The Real problem is the car is undriveable and the spare is not available from Honda for 3 to 4 months ie until June 2024. Has anyone else go a problem like this ,I only have the one car and cannot be without a car for four months !! John
