  1. Hi Stephen....welcome to the Club How you getting on with the Prelude?
  2. It's not a bad punt to go for the update but my only worry is if it doesn't work is it easy to revert back to the earlier update? Please let us know how you get on with it
  3. or It's either going to be one end of the crankshaft or the other....both look quite accessible to get to
  4. My CR-V also gives a turbo 'whine' which is standard but not a 'squeal' which would be something more sinister
  5. If you can remove it and clean it then maybe consider using a blanking plate (make sure you get one with small hole in the middle) You can clean the EGR in a solution and refit it but will have to ensure the engine is running at higher revs to keep it clear
  6. Try this company https://www.car-keys-online.com/
  7. They should pull out from clips. May require moderate force but not enough to break unit
  8. There does appear to be filters available but many different ones to chose from https://www.google.com/search?q=CRV+Sr+Auto+2015+auto+trans+filter&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB935GB935&oq=CRV+Sr+Auto+2015+auto+trans+filter&aqs=chrome..69i57j33i10i160.7108j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
  9. You could try adjusting the cable to gain better efficiency Maybe also see if the cables are free to move by jacking up each corner and seeing if the wheels are locked when applied
  10. Hi Jim Welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  11. Hi Donny.....welcome to the Club Here is a link to recommended oils from Castrol https://www.castrol.com/en_gb/united-kingdom/home/car-engine-oil-and-fluids/motor-oil-and-fluids-finder.html?customerType=retail Most modern oils are of a high quality so just look for the best deals for oil with the recommended specs
  12. Fantastic news Splop just goes to show how well built Honda cars were back then
  13. You should be able to bypass this tube as its only used for cooling (which is obviously important in hot weather and also when the steering is heavily used) but have done this on my BMW Z3 many years ago as a stop-gap and am still running it without issue.
  14. I suppose it is to avoid damage in colder weather but not sure how it works to do this....ambient temperature sensor readings....and why? Sorry, doesn't help much in resolving your issue but got me wondering and will see if I can find out further info
  15. That's a tough one but I would imagine if the seals are removed and matched up to alternatives such as in the link below https://www.google.com/search?q=2001+honda+accord+steering+rack+seal+kit&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB935GB935&source=lnms&tbm=shop&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi5qILSp6nzAhXZEcAKHadyBicQ_AUoAXoECAEQAw&biw=1730&bih=904&dpr=1 It should not matter if it is LHD or RHD as the internal seals should be the same. Another alternative which I have used very successfully and will slow down the fluid loss https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1311&_nkw=power+steering+fluid+stop+leak&_sacat=0
  16. Sounds like the ADAS that is there for the lane guidance, distance and collision avoidance? Can you post a photo of these markings?
  17. Sounds like the car may need a software update to calibrate the ADAS Best to speak to your dealer about this as it could be a safety issue if any of the sensors are out of calibration
  18. Thats interesting information Charles F and sorry to hear your wheels aren't covered for this sort of damage
  19. Hi Almach99 .... welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  20. Very nice spot, probably not the best place to have a breakdown though
  21. Found this answer https://www.fixya.com/cars/t15527274-torque_setting_wheel_nuts_honda_frv
  22. Yes, you can but maybe worth bypassing the A/C pump pulley by using a shorter belt if running like this for a long time
  23. Had a similar issue with my CR-V when I acquired it.....would have to constantly rest my hand on the wheel to bias it over to one side otherwise it would drag over into another lane. This was caused by the rear wheels being out of alignment (toe in/out) which is adjustable on the CR-V but not entirely sure if on the FR-V Once the rear adjustment was made, problem solved. Any adjustments on alignment should be made on the rear first if out of sync, most of the time they compensate by adjusting the fronts which doesn't cure it. Also, check your tyres carefully (sizes, pressures, make (e.g. Chinese) and go with that before spending big money on it
