  1. Hi Usman.....welcome to the Forum That's a fine looking machine, surprised the styling didn't carry across onto other UK models. Good to have you onboard
  2. Thanks for the update Paul....at least they're getting there with being able to update through the phone now.
  3. Hard to say from the audio recording, if it is wind noise then you could use a smoke generator to see if there is somewhere the noise is coming in from.
  4. Thanks for sharing this useful information. I think there more you can do to deter a thief the better and by putting as many hurdles in the way the more it will deter them.
  5. Hi.....welcome to the Forum At first glance the serial number looks to be updated so I wouldn't see that as being an issue. The sensor, as long as it is the correct type (e.g. 4 wires, etc) then it will work okay. I would be tempted to look at any wiring, earths and connectors to ensure that there is no corrosion present which could cause a high resistance and therefore low voltage.
  6. I think you'll find that the PGMFI system relay will run the pump and other subsystems but it will still rely on a crank sensor signal to trigger the injectors. If no signal then the system will not know the engine is turning and also the frequency of pulses relating to engine rpm. Worth looking at any connections and wiring to the Crankshaft (and Camshaft) sensor just in case they have been swapped over accidentally or not connecting properly
  7. It may be a situation of having to code it into the vehicle. This is common on many modern vehicles as the unit will need to communicate via CanBus and this means it needs coding with the correct equipment. A Honda dealership or Independent Honda specialist repairer should be able to resolve this issue.
  8. That doesn't sound good....it has a timing chain and these can start to rattle and lead to engine failure if allowed to progress. https://www.car.info/en-se/honda/civic/9th-generation-16-i-dtec-6615256/specs I would have the car checked at a dealership and see if there is any warranty recall on it
  9. Hi....welcome to the Forum Its quite straightforward really any issues just give me a shout and I can guide you through it.
  10. Looks like excessive water content in the fuel filter which needs draining off from the bottom of the housing
  11. 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.
  12. 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)
  13. Hi...welcome to the Forum The Legend definitely lived up to its name, it was a superb car in the day Good to have you onboard!
  14. 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
  15. 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.
  16. you should get around 40+ but extra urban would be more like high 40's low 50's I would think
  17. 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
  18. 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.
  19. 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
  20. 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
  21. 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
  22. 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.
  23. Hi ..... welcome to the Forum Glad you arrived at the correct choice of vehicle....the CR-V will do everything you want it to do (almost) Good to have you onboard
  24. Here is a video clip that may help you with programming the keys https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDOvY7r2iss&ab_channel=advanceddiagnostics
  25. Trevor replied to Steve's topic in Honda HR-V Club
    Thanks Christian....here is a new updated link giving more information on the HR-V models https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_HR-V
