  1. That's a very handy tip there BAZZER RN 1 
    I have used silicon to good effect on suspension rubbers (mainly strut top mounts if you can get enough in there as hard to access) when they get 'dry' and start creaking. Anyone who has had an Alfa Romeo will know what I mean 🙂

     

  2. They are an incredibly rare car now and this question of parts is coming up more often now as it seems Honda parts for most models are fast becoming hard to acquire

    You could look to Europe for parts as more plentiful over there
    Try AutoDoc as I have used them many times in the past for obscure car parts and they have come up trumps

  3. Honda has confirmed the pricing and specifications for its all-new electrified SUV – the ZR-V e:HEV – following the European launch in May.

    ZR-V e:HEV – Orders open from Tuesday 4th July. Starting from £39,495 OTR.
     

    Offering the perfect blend of sophisticated styling, practicality and sporty driving experience, all grades of the ZR-V feature Honda’s award-winning e:HEV full hybrid system as standard – upgraded to increase power and responsiveness.

     

    Starting with the well-equipped Elegance grade, this features 18-inch grey alloy wheels, front and rear parking sensors,11 airbags, a rear-view camera, and an eight-speaker audio system. A nine-inch touchscreen display is available across the range, complete with Honda Connect, navigation, and Apple CarPlay / Android Auto compatibility, alongside a seven-inch digital instrument display behind the leather steering wheel.

     

    Sport grades (from £41,095 OTR) come with a unique front bumper and grille treatment, gloss black mirrors and window trim, matte black wheels, and a fabric and synthetic leather combination interior trim. Sports pedals, ambient LED lighting, hands-free power tailgate, wireless charging, and additional USB ports are also standard.

    Range-topping Advance models (from £42,895 OTR) feature full leather seats with perforated inserts and silver stitching, a heated leather steering wheel, panoramic sunroof, and gloss black and diamond cut alloys. Customers opting for the flagship ZR-V also benefit from a premium 12-speaker BOSE sound system, a 10.2-inch multi-information display, and an all-new six-inch head-up display (HUD).

     

    “The ZR-V delivers the performance, comfort and usability that Honda customers have come to expect,” says Tom Gardner, Senior Vice President, Honda Motor Europe. “With a compelling mix of attractive designs and high specification levels, alongside strong, engaging dynamics and an advanced hybrid powertrain”.

  4. Hi Mark....welcome to the Club

     

    Honda suspension parts are proving very difficult to acquire lately for any model of Honda it seems
    Try Autodoc who are based in Europe and have found them useful for a whole range of parts that are now hard to get over here
     

    Wow! 20 cars is a lot....the most I've ever had at one time was 11 🙂

    I profess to be an avid Rover fan myself and have had almost every model they built in the 80's and 90's - The 200 BRM was my all-time favourite and should never have sold it

     

    Good to have you on board and if you can help out with answering any member's questions on the older Honda models then please feel free to get stuck in

  5. They will try to sell you a Dual Mass Flywheel sometimes even if its not needed
    Unless it is worn (e.g clunking when the engine switches off) or you think its worth is while the gearbox is off?

  6. It is a 2wd and 4wd all at the same time!

    Basically, it runs 2wd (on the front) and then if the traction disappears on the rear then the 4wd comes in to drive the rear axle to gain traction (assuming the tyres are up to it)
    It works hydraulically and most of the time you won't know its there except for when you turn onto your driveway and if the fluid needs replacing you'll hear a clonking noise

  7. I would imagine if the resistance values are the same for the OE part and an aftermarket one that 'fits the hole' then it should be okay to use as its only measuring the gas temperature and all exhaust temp sensors would read about the same temp for the gases
