I presume this made your noise go away?

I'm having identical noise symptoms in my CL9 with 155k on the clock. Did you remember what the mechanic charged you for the repair?

I bought Yokohama Advan DB V551s to make the ride nice and quiet on the highway. They DIDN'T work, still plenty of road noise. They are still a grippy if comfort-focused tyre but at least on the...

Get an alignment, if the problem doesn't go away completely then it is normal operation for Euros, my CL9 has done it forever, just a byproduct of suspension tune with the camber of our roads...

The whole situation stinks of a cover up by Takata.

Having said that, the nature of the problem is something that develops over time due to moisture ingress so it wouldn't be immediately obvious...

Same, dealer had no idea about the recall when it was first announced the other day. Called Honda today to confirm my postal address and they said my vehicle is not affected (although it is in the...

04-07 Euros now affected as well. http://www.recalls.gov.au/content/index.phtml/itemId/1070990

Called the dealer today to book in the service before they are swamped, they knew nothing about it...

Yeah I have had some dodgy service from him too, no after sales support and frustrating to deal with even before I had given him my money!

Wasn't aware. But Nulon FS at SCA is $68/4L so it's more than 30% cheaper to buy online excluding postage.

Besides I have no car club membership.

I'm in Brisbane, thinking of ordering some Penrite ATF from thefarmstore.com.au if anyone wants to share the shipping costs. It's $11.95 for up to 20 kgs and a quote after that.

Fully synthetic...

At least their lawnmowers are still good :(

An Aussie 8 would be very lucky to get less than 8-9L/100 on the highway.

It's your car. Why do you need an excuse?

Changing fuel filter can often fix this type of problem.

More likely, the ECU remapped itself to your new behaviour when you started driving aggressively, and now responds as such around town too. I suspect nothing has changed except throttle response.

Many servos will sell premium fuel that is also an E10 blend. E10 is not the same as 91RON.

So it is a rort then. Same part, but you have to pay double/triple/even more because it's a 'genuine part' and Honda MANDATES genuine parts. Sounds like enforcing a monopoly to me.

Honestly why...

How the f*ck can you forget to change the oil in a car when it has been given to you specifically to be serviced as per the book?! Honestly I don't know how most of these car dealers can sleep at...

Sorry but I can't agree with you there, of all the people we as citizens of a developed country have to deal with in our lives car dealers must be up there with the worst evils. And I say that only...

As I understand it, all CL9s are fitted with 300mm front rotors, EXCEPT those base models for EU markets which were fitted with 15" rims.

I am looking to replace my front rotors on the CL9. Is the diameter 288mm or 300mm? Because both are coming up...

If the trailer has electric brakes fitted... you need to buy and fit an electronic brake controller from a trailer retailer or towbar fitter or possibly an auto store like Autobarn. Whether you can...

The blue electric brake wire needs to be wired into an electronic brake controller (purchased separately). You don't need to connect to anything unless you want to tow a trailer with electric brakes...

Are there any telltale signs that a compressor failure is imminent? I would rather replace mine before it sends shards of metal through the whole system, if I can identify it before it happens...

Like others my city economy is on par with a big 6 or even a V8 when I'm getting impatient :(

However, I did a country run the other day, got about ~7L/100km. Drive averaged 120km/h for 500kms and...

Of course it doesn't matter! A ruler still measures the same distance on a mountain as it does at the bottom of the sea...
