I did this mod on a Civic and had to try a few different belts for size from a local motor factors who were very obliging when they knew what we were aiming to achieve

Thanks for letting us know the outcome of the repairs Sometimes, genuine parts are the only solution!

It does seem that unlike some other manufacturers (e.g. Toyota) that Honda are not concerned about older model parts availability. When a car model reaches a predetermined age then it has done its job and the fact that Honda cars live a lot longer than other makes is that they are made well in the first place. Therefore, i think more by accident than design, the older Honda's are still around but unfortunately the parts are not. Secondhand was always the way I went with parts for older cars and in particular American cars which you struggled to get parts for in the day so would visit scrapyards to find what i needed to keep the car on the road. Nowadays, you can get plenty of brand new remanufactured spare parts for American cars and other specialist cars such as Jags and MGs. Unfortunately, Honda is not one of that foresight has considered so not 'new' parts coming through. Have you also considered Rover parts as similar Honda models used in the Rover range (600, 800, 200, 400)

Trouble is you joined the legion to forget and be forgotten ..... now I'm of the age where I have forgotten whatever it was that I was trying to forget 🙂

Have a look at prices ones are and have gone for on eBay to get an idea of value Bearing in mind condition, mileage, etc and adjust value accordingly

Interesting read Alan and certainly brings back some memories

Hi...welcome to the Club Plenty of information in here but if you can't find what you want to know then just ask Good to have you onboard!

Can the damaged part be welded?

Suddenly thought what it is....Key Fob Battery is low and needs replacing. Take it to Timpsons or other Key Cutters and they should be able to replace it and then the light should go out

Generally Halfords have a range of improved bulbs that can improve lighting....have a look at their range and go from there

Hi .... welcome to the Club Usually chip tuning is the way forward but also induction and exhaust to compliment the tune. I imagine there is a multitude of information on the best way to tune on the net but it is always a question of money....how 'fast' can you afford to go? Good to have you onboard and feel free to post up some pics of the Civic

Hi....welcome to the Club I wouldn't worry too much about that as long as it hasn't come from somewhere such as the coast or flood plain areas in which case the corrosion could be excessive. Otherwise it has been noted as an advice more than likely but even so it is worth looking at how bad it is, if its surface corrosion then fine and it can be treated, anything deep and metal peeling away then maybe worth walking away from

I have no real idea but at first glance I am thinking if your phone is connected then its showing the battery level ? possibly?

If you can remove the hose and take it to a hydraulic hose repairer they can make you a new one at a fraction of the cost (Hyphose or similar company)

Can't see the connection as the key is doing the job of immobilising the engine to start/turn over. Check the coolant sensor is working within the parameters as it could be giving a false reading to the glow circuit

Did you ever manage to resolve this issue?

Hi Ivor....welcome to the Club Hopefully you can find all the parts and information you require through here Good to have you onboard!

Haven't encountered this issue before but oil quality, condition and level comes to mind as a possible cause

Hi....welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard

Hi....Happy New Year to you also Quite possible requires a new battery if the old one is losing charge over time? Also, check battery lead connections are tight as it does sound like power loss thats leading to these faults

Hi....Happy New Year to you too ! Plenty of info on here for researching the CR-V, to be fair they don't have too many problems. Good to have you onboard!

Hi....welcome to the Club What have you done to the engine? Feel free to dive into answering any questions you can, much appreciated Good to have you onboard!

Hi....welcome to the Club Superb collection of Honda's over the years You can change your Avatar image by going to your profile settings. If you are struggling then post up a photo and i can change it for you Good to have you onboard!

Happy New Year to all and lets hope 2024 is a good one 🙂

Hi Dave.....welcome to the Club It does sounds like fluid as a first thought but may also be the slave cylinder or release bearing inside the gearbox sticking. Its a tough one to diagnose but would also be worth someone looking under the pedals to ensure that nothing is holding the pedal down (piece of trim, etc) Please let us know the outcome of this one
