New Maps offer on Garmin Express
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

Diagnosing Turbo problems.
My CR-V also gives a turbo 'whine' which is standard but not a 'squeal' which would be something more sinister

2.2 diesel 2007. EGR Removal
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

Jazz rear brake caliper handbrake adjustment
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

Power steering leak Metal Hose/Tube
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.

faulty electric tailgate on 2005 accord - Help please
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

Accord 2.0 VTec 2001 (F20B6) Steering.
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

windscreen info needed
Sounds like the ADAS that is there for the lane guidance, distance and collision avoidance? Can you post a photo of these markings?

ACC system keeps going off.
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

FR-V Aircon
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

Honda FR-V brakes issue
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

2011 CRV parking sensors problem
I wonder if the sensor resistance is different from the others....worth taking a reading from the new one and an existing one to compare.
