It will take at least 30 seconds of non stop spamming on the arm button to lock the car (arm the alarm). However, i left the car for 10 minues and i dont have any problem arming or disarming the car if i dont start the engine/drive around. Then i decided to start the engine for like 2 minutes and turn it off and the same problem appears again. What would the problem be? Could it be my battery running low and it wouldnt support the alarm and the engine right after driving due to the distribution of power around? I am just guessing. Could someone please help me. Many thanks

easy its the turbo timer function, turn your ignition on like engine running then hold the panic button/smallest one for like 5sections and alarm should beep twice.

If you want brand new OEM part and Honda Australia doesn't want to help you.

Here's an indication of price. http://www.hondaoriginalparts.com/ho...&block_03=9814

They will ship to Australia. My mate has ordered stuff from and they are legit business. His parts were shipped within 5 working days.

If you find the price is too expensive for OEM, I believe there are aftermarket ones like T1R inverted tie rods.

However, there is a chance DC5R's tie rod might fit but I think they're a bit different in length.

Hey guys make sure you have a cabin filter in your cars. I've just check mine and theres nothing in there. So freaking dodgy

Cabin filters are optional.

Alot Hondas are like this. My jazz had no pollen filter when it the capability to have one.

So it's nothing dodgey.

You're lucky if you have one.
