Hi Everyone,
My name is Steve from Reading. We have a 130k miles Honda FR-V 2.0 VTEC that we bought as a family runabout 10yrs ago, we have put 70k of those miles on it with little trouble.
It is battle-scarred but reliable, and does a great job of towing our small caravan. I do a lot of my own home mechanics apart from big jobs which need a vehicle lift.
I was a long time member of the Honda Karma forum but on checking that today found it was closed down, so came here instead.

I've got this exact same problem. Magnetic clutch on the pump is engaging/disengaging in line with the button on the dash being toggled on/off but my mechanic sees no change in pressures. He has diagnosed a faulty compressor. They are about £450 OEM, it's a lot of money. I'm trying to source an aftermarket one. It is also recommended to fir a new receiver/dryer at the same time, as opening up the system for any repair allows moisture in.
Did you ever resolve your issue?
