Thanks again Trevor for this information. Booked in for next Tues/Weds Alan

Thanks Trevor, the dual mass flywheel is in the price. First time I've ever had a clutch need replacing on any car I've had. This little CRV has a tow bar on the back don't know hpw much work she did but is it true towing does wear a clutch out quicker??

Seems my 2005 CRV desel 2.2 CRV is after 136.000 mikes in need of a new clutch been given a priice of £1100 fitted does this seem a fair price? Its booked in for next week at the local garage I use. Alan

Hi BRAZZER RN, how are those new tyres doing are you pleased with the ride etc. Alan

Welcome Jon, l'm a CRV 2005 bloke, like you think they are the best, lovely looking motor. Loads of exprienced Honda people here (of which I'm not one!!) if you need help or if your can share yours even better. Enjoy!! Alan

Welcome Trevor, cross check who owners the brand, some are very clever at making statement like UK based, produced in the UK etc when often it means it's made in the EU, China etc and just packaged here for resale.

Being a big dog person.... I wouldn't dream of giving my dogs food, treats or toys from China, Thailand, Vietnam and the like. The word 'China' and 'dog' conjures up images of dogs being beaten to death, throats cut, put in hot oil and cooked alive and eaten – images I would rather not have seen. In the US there are dogs that died of kidney disease after eating treats from China Perhaps the majority of people don't realize or maybe aren't concerned about the origin of the products. I’m told also of pet food manufacturers buying from China and adverting they are from the UK. Some get away with it by saying – they are packed in the UK, they just miss out the bit about being imported from China! What pet food brands are made in China? China Pet Food Company List include ADM. Affinity Petcare SA. Alltech. Clearlake Capital Group, L.P. (Wellness Pet Company Inc.) General Mills Inc. Mars Incorporated. Nestle (Purina) PLB International. PLEASE know that if you choose to buy any treat made in China, your pet may be at risk. Chicken jerky treats, chicken tenders, chicken strips, chicken treats, or sweet potato treats, they can all pose a potential threat. Many deaths have been caused from two chemical additives that were present in some of the food: melamine and cyanuric acid. When both melamine and cyanuric are present in pet food, they form dangerous crystals in the kidneys of the dogs and cats who ingest them. Toys made in China, for example, have a higher rate of toxins and lead found in their toys. I’m told that all the supermarkets and the big retail pet stores sell treats from China UK made Pet Foods include The Dog Takeaway …….. www.petaroni.com Bucher’s Dog Food – www.butchersdogfood.co.uk Albion Dog Food - www.albionpetfoods.co.uk Food UK treats Poland Alan

My Dear friend, Or may I call you BAZZER RN you don’t know me but a mutual friend passed your name to me, you may however have heard of my tours going from place to place speaking of the peril of drinking and fornicating with loose women. On my tours I have been greatly helped by David a poor wretched soul who had lived a life of drinking and loose women, he would sit on the stage, swearing, breaking wind, and exposing himself thus showing the curse of such a wicked life. Unfortunately David died a few weeks ago and I wonder if you would like to take his place? My blessings go with you The Very Reverend Father Tom

Yep, your post is showing, weekend all out cleaning cars, if only the rain would stop!!!! I'm sure you will get help and advice just not from me as anything to do with under the bonnet is above my pay grade!!

A major hurricane (Hurricane Shazza) and earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter Scale hit Essex in the early hours of Monday with its epicenter in Basildon . Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, muttering "Faaackinell". The hurricane decimated the area causing approximately £30 worth of damage. Several priceless collections of mementos from Majorca and the Costa Del Sol were damaged beyond repair. Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Many locals were woken well before their giros arrived. Essex FM reported that hundreds of residents were confused and bewildered and were still trying to come to terms with the fact that something interesting had happened in Basildon . One resident - Tracy Sharon Smith, a 15-year-old mother of 5 said, "It was such a shock, my little Chardonnay-Mercedes came running into my bedroom crying. My youngest two, Tyler-Morgan and Victoria-Storm slept through it all. I was still shaking when I was skinning up and watching Trisha the next morning." Apparently looting, muggings and car crime were unaffected and carried on as normal. The British Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 crates of Sunny Delight to the area to help the stricken locals. Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal belongings, including benefit books, jewellery from Elizabeth Duke at Argos and Bone China from Poundland. HOW CAN YOU HELP? This appeal is to raise money for food and clothing parcels for those unfortunate enough to be caught up in this disaster. Clothing is most sought after - items most needed include: Fila or Burberry baseball caps Kappa tracksuit tops (his and hers) Shell suits (female) White sport socks Rockport boots Any other items usually sold in Primark. Food parcels may be harder to come by but are needed all the same. Required foodstuffs include: Microwave meals Tins of baked beans Ice cream Cans of Colt 45 or Special Brew. 22p buys a biro for filling in the compensation forms £5 buys chips, crisps and blue fizzy drinks for a family of 9 £20 buys B&H and a lighter to calm the nerves of those affected. **Breaking news** Rescue workers found a girl in the rubble smothered in raspberry alco-pop. "Where are you bleeding from?" they asked, "Romford" said the girl, "woss that gotta do wiv you?" Please don't forward this to anyone living in Essex - oh, sod it, they won't be able to read it, anyway.

My CRV is a 2005 model and I had a recall letter from Honda last year (2023) regarding air bag and master window swtich which I had done at the local dealership.

I'm of an age when most of a map was pink (part of the British Empire) when I was young, about time those that believe they know what they are doing running this counrty woke up and smelled the coffee. Most of us know who cut the police by 20.000, plus the Armed forces and many ofther services, the goverment of the day. -now we need more of everything by those that cut the numbers ....

That's the world we live in now all take and no give. What's a spare wheel cost as I understand most cars don't come with them now? I was told it was something to do with H&S ??? Progress looks funny to me
