  1. It does show as a warning (amber) to check oil level from what I can gather. Maybe a sensor issue but wonder if you could top it slightly with a small amount to see if it disappears?
  2. Does seem quieter than normal so possibly Easter break and school holidays taking up some time I guess. Well its certainly isn't the glorious sunshine we're not getting that's to blame 🙂
  3. I would advise removing the hose and taking it to a local specialist hose repairer (such as Hyphose) who make hoses and pipes to order for diggers and suchlike with hydraulic systems. They can match your pipe and make an identical new one for not a lot of pennies Let us know how you get on with it p.s. if the ignition is not switched on (e.g. the fuel pump is not primed) then the fuel pressure should have dropped enough for you to remove the hose and just deal with a slight amount to mop up but at least not spraying out under pressure.

    If you scan the ECU to see if there are any fault codes it would be a good start as the possible causes are many.....split turbo boost hose, blocked EGR, sticking turbo vanes, blocked fuel filter.....etc
  5. Hi....welcome to the Club You should be able to get new wiper blades from Halfords and go for the option of getting them fitted so they have to do the legwork to open the packaging to offer up potentially suitable blades to your car. Once you find suitable ones, keep the packaging for future reference but it just comes down to length and fittings so aftermarket parts are fine in the situation Anything else specific to the Stream then I would look on eBay (link below) for listings and see what is out there https://www.ebay.co.uk/b/bn_1838652?mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&siteid=3&campid=5338938280&customid=HondaKW&toolid=20012
  6. Hi...welcome to the Club most of these items you should be able to purchase through eBay....try this link which will take you to the Honda parts sections https://www.ebay.co.uk/b/bn_1838652?mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&siteid=3&campid=5338938280&customid=HondaKW&toolid=20012 Also, costs are far cheaper than OE parts but try to stick to the best you can get for your budget, cheaper components won't last and can be of dubious quality
  7. Hi Michael....welcome to the Club Sounds an interesting project and story to tell of its tragic history. The exhaust I can understand as open to corrosion with standing in water but the engine, if not turned over should be fine as wouldn't necessarily ingest water to the cylinders. I would be tempted to remove as much of the anciliary items from the top of the engine and take the plugs out and fill with WD40, etc to turn over to clean the bores. Obviously, the cambelt would need changing along with water pump, etc and I reckon it will clean up nicely internally. I believe the pistons have ceramic coating and wouldn't require replacing or even cleaning. Let us know how you get on and photos of the condition as it would be great to see
  8. It worth checking the Castrol Oil Selector site to confirm if there is an alternative oil https://www.castrol.com/en_gb/united-kingdom/home/car-engine-oil-and-fluids/motor-oil-and-fluids-finder.html
  9. I have found that using an ABS sensor from the same model of car but another corner (has to be as long if not longer) does work - e.g. O/S/R for use in N/S/R or either one of the front wheels Also, has to be the same fitting but as the resistance is not too different (higher. lower) so it does function and then you just loop the cable so its tucked out of the way
  10. Oh definitely one with gum protection as well 🙂
  11. Hi....welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  12. Hi....welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  13. good to hear its where it should be now ...thanks for letting us know
  14. 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
  15. Toothpaste is apparently very good as a scrub to remove the build up on the lenses
