Which is best?
Hi...welcome to the Forum It depends on where you drive mostly, e.g. in town I would advise the petrol engine all day long. Extra Urban and Motorway would probably go diesel engine for economy. All round, the FRV is a spacious vehicle and should be every bit as reliable as any other Honda.

I fancy a Legend
They were pretty good cars all round going back a few years ago, not sure how they have fair with age unless been garaged (e.g. rust)

PGM-FI relay location
Hi....welcome to the Forum If it is sparking and there is fuel being supplied from the pump then it does not sound like a system relay or crank sensor at fault. I would be tempted to run a compression test and check all the belts just in case one has moved a tooth, etc Let us know what you find

Coolant leak
I would be tempted to add some StopLeak into the cooling system to slow down or even stop the leak as sometimes it can just be a porous casting and the StopLeak just blocks the hole enough to not require replacement of expensive components.

2009 Honda insight Poor MPG!
you should get around 40+ but extra urban would be more like high 40's low 50's I would think

2009 Honda insight Poor MPG!
That seems quite reasonable to me considering it is a 1.3 petrol engine. If this is motorway use then this will reduce the overall economy

Louder turn indicator signal
I used to have a buzzer wired in on my motorbikes years ago as a reminder that I hadn't cancelled the turn signal. You may be able to find a kit in a motorcycle accessory shop.

Glovebox, boot & window switch
I think the boot can be opened by taking the panel off from inside the vehicle. Most of the plastic trims should just clip in and require a firm hand to detach the clips from the panels. You should be able to find some parts on Ebay to replace the defective components

Car cigarette lighter not working
Hi Julie.....welcome to the forum I would imagine that the cigarette lighter has gone faulty as it should earth through the body and if there is power going to it then it should in theory work. It may be best to take it out to check it and if necessary replace it...think they still sell replacement ones at Halfords

Used CRZ under 5k - A risk or not
Hi.....welcome to the Forum The CRZ is a great model but I would be concerned about spare parts as it now seems that older Honda models are getting harder to obtain parts for. Let us know how you get on with finding one

Lack lustre Power vs engine Revs
I cannot think of any particular reason that the suspension repairs would have any bearing on the transmission performance. Therefore, it must be a transmission (or engine) issue. If the engine revs freely then I would be looking at changing the gearbox fluid and filter and go from there.

How to connect phone on 2006 tourer
From memory, it is the button at the back of the wheel (the smaller ones below the phone buttons). If you wait for the bleep and say "phone memory" or "add phone" and if it says the memory is full then say "delete phone from memory" or something like that

Original Parts Diagrams 2012 Civic
Hi....welcome to the Forum Apart from most servicable items which can be purchased through EuroCarParts and the like, then eBay is the best alternative which also provide a lot of OE parts from dealers in the listings.

Hello
great to hear that you've had no major issues, flooding aside. It would probably be a good idea to swap out the battery if its been in there for that long, always fail when its the coldest weather as well so don't want to be caught out without a replacement one to hand

Central locking
Hi....welcome to the forum Not entirely sure what this could be but would recommend taking it to an auto-electrician who can resolve this issue. Bit concerned that you may not be able to enter or more importantly exit the car if it fails completely Keep us updated on what you find out

How to connect phone on 2006 tourer
You will have to read the manual but I seem to recall it is a voice command to pair phone and then goes through the procedure to delete and add phones to memory
