  • Peugeot - Manor Oak Abdn & Dundee- out of business 17 Oct 2009 (Forum)
    BBC Reports http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/8311558.stm It seems a sister company dealing with Honda still trades. Buying your car you have to guess which Manufacturer will be around and which dealer. Life is getting more problematic and it is just not age!

  • Megane Renaultsport 225 22 Aug 2004 (Forum)
    Hi everyone, Gonna test drive one of these on Wednesday. Anyone already driven one - perhaps own one. They look rather appealing at internet prices of £15750 :) The alternatives don't really appeal. Something about the Honda Civic type R just doesn't appeal. Most other competitors don't have
  • Civic ABS problem 14 Jan 2004 (Forum)
    On coming to halt my Honda Civic (1995 1.6 LS) has been applying the ABS (i.e. brake pedal reverberating hard). At all other times the braking is A1. The local garage diagnosed a leaking master brake cylinder, but a new one has made no difference. The ABS light is now permanently on. Any ideas what
  • Used primeras v reg on 2 Apr 2003 (Forum)
    Anybody bought a used Primera 2.0 sx/slx from 1999 on? Is it a worthwhile/reliable car or am I better spending money on a similar Honda Accord? Are they expensive to repair and what is Nissan dealership backup like? Wording amended. Please don\'t use just UPPER CASE as it is classed as shouting
  • oil changes 13 Mar 2003 (Forum)
    I have a 6 month old Honda S2000 which cost me a fortune to buy and I will keep for a lifetime. The car has only covered 1800 miles since new and at most will not exceed 5000 miles a year. The car , when used, is driven high into the rev limit. Would it be sensible to have regular 6 monthly oil
  • Oil Changes 19 Dec 2001 (Forum)
    I've read with interest the comments about changing oil every 5000 miles. Looking through my Accord's service book, Honda have left spaces for "intermediate oil change" every 4,500 miles. Is this necessary for a certain type of driving (i.e all motorway or all town driving), or is it a good idea
  • Infra red remote 12 Apr 2001 (Forum)
    Contacted my local Honda dealers this morning to price a second remote as only one was supplied with the car. After recovering from the shock of being told this would cost a whopping £74 I gathered my thoughts together and remembered that I had a small learning remote for tv etc and found
  • Tyres with W speed rating 25 Nov 2000 (Forum)
    I have a Honda Integra Type-R fitted from new with Bridgestone Potenza RE010 195/55 R15 85W tyres. I have looked on the Bridgestone Europe web site and this type are not available. There are none that match this size/ speed rating combination. Can you suggest an alternative tyre choice?
  • Honda CR-V - Replacing suspension 27 Sep 2024 (Forum)

The car has still Honda shocks and springs, which is now over 15 years, one on the rear spring just snapped. The local mechanic said, that apart from replacing rear springs

  • Honda Civic 1.6 - Fuel consumption - bad or just normal? 14 Jan 2015 (Forum)
    on the Real MPG list but it doesn't go as far back as this model and I can't find any other Hondas listed which use this engine. Normal travelling is a 5 mile commute to work with not all that much traffic along a mix of 30 / 40 / 50 roads plus trips to the shops and the odd 20 mile trip most weekends

  • Honda Jazz/Fit (2008 - ) - New Jazz Co2 levels higher than expected. 12 Apr 2009 (Forum)
    a year figure has eluded us. It's on the Honda website but they haven't drawn any attention to the fact that it was initially proposed to be the lower figure and has been quietly amended to the higher figure. Anyone looking at the vast majority of previews will be under the misapprehension
