sounds like something chris at hondworld would say :rolleyes:

Well it was at hondaworld the guy said it. I think he was the boss guy. And for slobber goat, I wasn't buying something for the transmission so I think he was saying it just for the point of saying it. But i know what your sayin, they do say that sorta stuff

A weird light popped up when i was warming up my ef9 in the panel beater's today. Its the light under the petrol light. looks similiar to the symbol of a Resisistor on a circuit board diagram, and squigly lines coming up from it. when i look at it reminds me of a radiator or something. Does anyone know wat this warning light is?

hehehe, sounds like your rear window demister is on... no need to panic just yet

Mine comes on randomly aswell, i think it's an overheating sensor on the block, it's located just under the dizzy. Unplug it and plug it back in again, it worked for me :thumbsup:

i shall try this. thanks bsracer

Just wondering what things people have got on they're ef8/9s that might not be standard options or if anyone knows what the options were. I believe climate control was an option. Anyone confirm if the following is not standard?

-electric retractable electric mirrors?
-electric windows
-electric sunroof
-rear discs

Anything I may have missed?

electric retractable mirrors - they do come on ef9s i know this for sure. so does the windows and rear discs. some also have abs which is f* expensive to repair.

Manual winders for the windows was the option on EF9s, but only on the stripped down "race off the factory floor" varient.

Electric Sunroof was an option but most seem fitted with it.
Rear disks and oversized front disks standard.
Electric folding mirrors (not just power adjustable) = incredibly rare - so rare that I can't find them in my catalogue for the EF9, the EF8 CRX lists them though.

Climate control = option
Double DIN centre console = option
sigh - must convert my scans of the EF9 and EE9 catalogs as I CBD posting the rest :P

What's the double DIN centre console? Have you got the electric retractable?

2 Stereo holes = Double DIN.

I've never seen the retractables - only once on a US ED that had located the parts and switch.
