Michelin tyre wear
You are correct with the reasons for Honda not including such luxuries as Apple Play and their Sat Nav updates have been sadly lacking for many years compared to other manufacturers

Michelin tyre wear
Hi.....welcome to the Club I would say the tyres are of a soft compound and if the wear is on the fronts only then they are being scrubbed by driving and steering which would understandably cause wear. However, if it is on one edge only then this suggests some inconsistencies in the steering geometry.

Second-hand Clutch Actuator
I guess some scrapyards should be the next stop then but they could have potentially suffered the same damage as yours. Most items have a warranty period with them even though they are used parts

New Type R
Hi Andy.....long time no hear, hope you are staying well? Crikey, that's almost a year for the car to arrive! I'm sure the wait was worth it though. Sounds like an amazing machine, let us know what you think of it on the road

Second-hand Clutch Actuator
I would imagine eBay or marketplace to get a secondhand unit but may need coding into the car and definitely calibrating

Tyre Pressure Warning system
It may be worthwhile using a different tyre inflator/pressure gauge in case the one you are using is incorrect. Also, inflating the tyres with another 5 psi over the recommended to see if that puts the warning light out> You can always deflate them afterwards if no effect. Alternatively, it maybe the sensors need recoding to calibrate them

starting problems
Hi....welcome to the Club I would definitely replace the fuel filter as experienced this myself and this cured it How's life in France? Much happening with Covid there?

2006 Diesel Accord starting problems - any help appreciated!
Hi Alex....welcome to the Club My absolute first thoughts are battery supply and earth returns. If you are experiencing issue with immobiliser and also ABS then I think I would trace through from the battery (both sides) and work through the fuseboxes and other current supply routes to see if there is any corrosion or breaks in wires, etc. I know its like teaching you to suck eggs but I have fallen foul of some of the simplest faults which I failed to initially check

Wipers got mind of their own
Hi.....welcome to the Club I had a similar issue on a Mitsubishi L200 and took the front cover off the wiper motor to find there was an excess of grease on the contacts which could no longer pick up a current at certain points in the wipe sweep. Cleaned off the excess grease and it worked absolutely fine. Not sure if the motor is easily accessible on the CR-V like it was on the L200 and also if there is an easily removable front cover but certainly worth a look Let us know how you get on with it

Rear camera and sat nav display is dim
Sorry not sure I've ever seen a s colour code for wheels but I'll bet Honda sell a touch up kit for the alloys There are settings in the front end of the unit to brighten the screen....done it before myself but couldn't tell you exactly where (seem to remember it is quarter moon / full moon type logo if that helps)

Battery Drain - Alarm Cause
I would pull some fuses to see which one stops the current drain....eliminates the circuits that are functioning without issue

Flashing "D" light whilst driving.
There seems to be some info on these codes and faults with this transmission on a Google search and used in Toyota as well as other Japanese brands

Cycle rack suggestions
I think Halfords sell a range of bike carriers that would sit on the tailgate but not sure about the weight on there though

Civic handbrake
Is it just the one wheel or both that aren't applying the handbrake? If you jack one side up at a time and try to turn the wheel to see which one (or both) aren't holding. Seems like it could need adjustment on the cable but worth pumping the footbrake at the same time as pulling up the handbrake on and off to see if the caliper winds in onto a closer tolerance

CRV warm/hot starting problem
Had a similar issue with my 2008 CR-V and i changed the fuel filter which solved the issue. They are rarely changed because they are notoriously hard to get to replace
